The
rap guide to evolution:
Written and performed by Canadian actor and rap artist Baba Brinkman, The Rap Guide to evolution presents Darwin's theory in a striking new form: comedy storytelling and hilarious remixes of popular rap songs. Why is bling like a peacock's tail? Can white people be afrocentric? Does anything rhyme with Australopithecus afarensis?
