Raaaaaaaandy vs. Justin Bieber; oh, it’s on.

Hilarity, Music, Video, , , ,

I introduced you to comedian Aziz Ansari’s off-the-walls alter ego Raaaaaaaandy last week.  I told you all about his start in Funny People and his upcoming mixtape with TV on the Radio’s Dave Sitek.  You also got sneak peek at the mixtape with the release of the first single called “Aaaaaaaangry.”  This week Raaaaaaaandy is back and this time with a targeted agenda: to bring down the young music sensation that is Justin Beiber.  As you can clearly see in the video reenactment above, an older pot-smoking Beiber clearly stole the song “Baby, Baby” from Raaaaaaaandy and turned it into his own song that he calls “Baby.”  And this has Raaaaaaaandy fired up.

Via his Twitter account Ansari is taking matters into his own hands to spread the #BieberStoleFromRandy story.  Tweets like “Is this a threat?! If I get in a ‘boating accident’ in 15 days, y’all know what really happened… RT @justinbieber 15 more days…” and “Swear I just saw 12 yr old with a doo rag & a blunt in his mouth messing w/my car. Brakes might get cut. #BiebersAfterMe;” “So scared I can’t even spell straight man. #DontFuckWithTheBieb;” and “I recorded that video months ago but held it til now cause Bieber was holding one of my nephews captive in Canada” are making waves thoughout the Twitterverse.  Anyway, this whole Raaaaaaaandy vs. The Bieb situation is hilarious and the video’s got me looking forward to more Raaaaaaaandy (and Dave Sitek) collaboration.

Single: RAAAAAAAANDY – “AAAAAAAANGRY”

OK so here’s the story.  You know Aziz Ansari, right?  He plays Tom Haverford on NBC’s Parks & Recreation and he had a minor role in Funny Peoplewhere he played a rising comedian named RAAAAAAAANDY (that’s right, with 8 A’s).  Shortly following the release of the movie Ansari decided to take things a step further and bring RAAAAAAANDY the comedian out of the movie and into real life.  You can head over to Funny or Die to watch a three part series that follows Ansari’s alter-ego on the road.  They’re pretty damn funny but contain many expletives, so beware.

And that brings us to the present.  Ansari–err–RAAAAAAAANDY is teaming up with TV On the Radio’s Dave Sitek to make a mixtape!  Ansari shares with the world the first track off the mixtape and it’s appropriately called “AAAAAAAANGRY.”  In it he complains that none of the rappers he invited to make a verse for this track got back to him about it.  He calls out Kid Cudi, Kanye West, Jay-Z, Ludacris, Drake, Dr Dre, and Eminem.  To Kanye he says: “So quick updating your blog and send us your verse.  ‘Oh, here’s a couch I saw.’  Can you sit on that couch and write your verse real quick?  ‘Oh, here’s a picture of a dope tree house in Scandinavia.  Oh, I’m designing a new shoe with BugleBoy.  Hey, why don’t write some lyrics on a shoe and rap ’em and send us back a fu**in verse?”  And to Drake: “Last name ever, first name slowest.”  He has the utmost respect for these guys–it’s comedy, remember?

Listen to the track “AAAAAAAANGRY” below and download it for free here.  Looking forward to the full mixtape!  Peek after the break for a short video blog featuring RAAAAAAAANDY and his trusty sidekick DJ Ol’ Youngin.

WARNING: Pretty much everything that comes out of RAAAAAAAANDY’s mouth is paired with an explicative.  This track (and even more so the videos at FoD) contain many explicatives and involve dirty subject matter.
