Re: FIRST RAP??? ....

haha. I actually thought it was pretty funny. The original song is pretty cool, the second is the best, in my opinion.

Re: FIRST RAP???

They need to hire MC Frontalot to a FIRST Rap. That'd be hilarious.

Re: FIRST RAP???

I was laughing, it has a beat that gets stuck in your head.
Maybe that was the purpose of it, so you wont forget FIRST.

Very creative indeed.

Re: FIRST RAP???

Am I the only person who thought the song was an embarassing attempt to "connect with youth" or something gone horribly, horribly wrong? I personally hope I never hear it again.

I could not agree more. I admire the attempt of trying to make science and technology more "hip" and "cool". I think attempts to "connect with youth" through music is a very risky move, because there is a very large chance that instead of making yourself look cool, you make yourself look foolish and not serious. In my opinion this song made an otherwise serious and amazing organization appear very foolish. The song its self is catchy but I really would be happy if I never heard it again.

Nope. I had the same impression.

Re: FIRST RAP???

WOWWWW! coming from someone who despises rap, i gotta say that i actually enjoyed this. It made me laugh because it didnt flow. I mean, first you combine rap and robots (which probably shouldnt go together to begin with) and then you do some interesting editing that just makes it sound very choppy. Made me 1) want to cry in disgust 2) laugh 3) download the song (hey it had some nice lyrics!)

Re: FIRST RAP???

Apparently we are good at creating engineers, but not so great at proofreading. There was also a typo in the animation award slide in the finals. Typos are one of my pet peeves and I find them everywhere - including on an otherwise great looking, professionally-done pit display that I saw this week in Atlanta.
