Randy Rainbow Has a Question
Political musical satirist Randy Rainbow’s new one dropped this week. It’s called “Where the Hell Is Our Congress?” and it’s a parody of Raye’s “WHERE IS MY HUSBAND!”, which has been living in my head since the day it came out.
The bit isn’t subtle. The aim isn’t either. But there’s a craft thing happening that I admire. Rainbow has done this for almost a decade now, and his ear for which songs will carry the joke has gotten really sharp. Watch what Raye is doing on the original first. Then watch what he does on top of it.
So good.
