The quickest way to a girl’s heart is through visual stimulation.  Everyone knows that which is why BANGS generously offers one lucky girl a ticket to the movies, and if she’s lucky, her own bag of popcorn.

Most gangster rappers (note: I’m defining gangster rapper by having at least 50 grand worth of money and 3 gold chains in your video) talk about shooting people, huge shiny cars and very vulgar things involving women and things they’d like to do to them.  Sexually.  However, BANGS takes an endearing, and alternative route.  He just wants to see a movie with you.  Toy Story 3?  Avatar? Maybe even Sex and the City 2 if you really want!  BANGS just wants to please you, in the only way he knows how; movies.  In addition to his affinity for movies, BANGS is also a deity from the sky.  As he says half way through the song “I’m a different guy, coming from the sky”.  Who wouldn’t want to date a rapping wind spirit from Sudan?  The only problem I see is that the next line is “I never lie”.  I don’t care though.  He’s probably telling the troof.

As a bonus, BANGS has made an entire album!  You can check out his stellar YouTube channel here (http://www.youtube.com/user/Bangs8) which has numerous songs, interviews and guest stars!  If you listen to any of his other songs representing the distressing-simulacrum-of-the-state-of-music, you’ll know that he’s been kind of sad lately. In his song “My Life is Hard” he sheepishly utters, “I never ever have a good time”.  Maybe he’ll be happier if you add a few more view counts to his videos.  Or if he had a better fitting hat.
