Props to Eru the One

Wow. Nick provided a pointer to The Lords of the Rhymes, where you can download an MP3 of possibly the first and possibly the only Tolkien rap song. It's fairly likely that you've never heard anything like it (except for the bits cribbed from other songs). Lyrics also available on the site:

Goin’ mad off the hook just like a Numenorean
I got more rhymes than there’s leaves in Lothlorien.

But I recommend listening to the song without reading the lyrics first for best entertainment value.

Jed Bob says check it out.

(For those who missed it, you may also be interested in Shakespearean rap.)

    I love Lords of the Rhymes. Being both a Rap musician and a Tolkien fan it’s hilarious!

    I get all the references, Feanor forever!

    Check my music out.
