that guy is probably a criminal and just out of jail after serving 15 years for having sex with a child.
also she probably works as a phone sales person for telus or something... and smells like shit and burps in public.
just from my observations.

the video itself actually looks pretty solid I don't get why they put next to no effort on the rest though like not sure if the singing is serious cause it sounded so fucking bad .. lol

i rather listen to a baboon taking it in the ass by a elephant than listen to these fuckers sing.
video is good tho.

comments from youtube, lol give this couple more days and be more comedic quotes
voices sound like this was a project done for some handicapped patients
embarrassed after watching this ming
i didn't know kermit the frog was from vancouver.
Parody or not, it's deeply shitty and full of unimaginative cliches. However, it does accurately reflect the rampant mediocrity that infests our fine city.

can tell that hal the guys posting here didnt actually listen. if u had u may have thought the raps were funny and playful, and the girl's singing poorly recorded and equivalent to hearing a cat slowly die

ya I mean I'm not knocking it for not being up to par with jay-z on the raps or whatever, I realize its a parody but the sound quality was just terrible which is a shame because it looked like they put in some solid work on the video editing so I'm actually a little confused why so much effort on that part and then record the song with a dollar store mic lol.

its a parody, calm down people. the rap lyrics were halarious and true.
i didnt listen to the lyrics to find out if they were funny or not cause i immediately stopped the video. . . i couldnt stand the guy's voice and the awful singing by the girl.

great idea, wrong people pulling it off.
Lyrics werent too bad. if he had proper flow and knew how to rap, and the girl didnt sound giddy, it would have been pretty solid.
is he actually an artist (my money is on he's not) or is this like a school project type of thing?

So, so, so bad.....
Makes me feel ashamed to be in Vancouver.

watched it again...video editing is definitely solid
great editing, lyrics were well done too...too bad they fucked it up with the bad recording. Think other ppl need to do a REMAKE

After I found out that the guy is my brother's friend, and he drives a delorean, all is forgiven.

alicia keys is sooooo faking it but it gives the "HEY I AM SINGING MY HEARTS OUT AND PLAYING IT" look
where as the chinese auto tuned shit voice is playing it smooth...
get better singers and it would of been great actually. Love the HST and starbucks part haha.. and awesome editing

Was entertaining.....I think you people are taking it too seriously. They probably made it for fun, not to aim at being the next Canadian Idol
