The relevant passage that brought back the memories was the part about Shaw wanting to do a library orientation in rap form and being told by the college that she couldn't. 3/pic.twitter.com/MmEKhvKHVX
Thinking of Ms. Shaw doing a rap version of a library orientation made me wonder if it would end up looking like this particular freestyle rap from antivaxxer Hillary Simpson. Seriously, it was so bad. 4/https://respectfulinsolence.com/2018/09/21/rappin-hillary-simpson-crazymothers-and-deardoctor/ …
My assessment of Hillary Simpson's freestyle rap skills was...not kind. Let's just say that she seems to think she's emulating @Eminem at The Shelter at @StAndrewsHall back in the day. 5/pic.twitter.com/LzmX7Ncs43
See for yourself what Simpson's sick rhymes sound like and tell me that @Smith_Surge's library orientation rap wouldn't have been very much the same ! 6/6https://youtu.be/34ZTWvkgiQE
It would not just have been the same. It would have been much, much worse.
