Watch a nerdy girl with a Dad Joke personality do Biggie Smalls with just her voice and iPad. All of Rebecca's videos.

Huh. That's quite a thing.

I feel like I'm watching unaired Kristen Wiig sketches from SNL and her never before seen reoccurring character "Rebecca Loops".

Picking up some Leslie Hall vibes here and that is just fine by me.

Kismet? Serendipity? After a day at work debating, revisiting and rethinking the reactions around the Dana Schutz painting of Emmit Till in his casket currently on view as part of the Whitney Biennial, I have to say that this Biggie Smalls cover rings perfectly meta. At one point I even made reference to white connoisseurship of black culture and how being able to sing "Big Poppa" word for word is like the whitest thing ever.

At least she does a good job, IMO, even if it is not actually an acapella cover.

(Also, nerdy girls are the best girls, also IMO.)

Thank you for making me smile while holed up in my sickbed. I love this.

It's really cool how you can mute or activate tracks for a pass through the loop

Thanks for posting this, it was a lot of fun. I'll agree that we don't really need more white people doing gimmicky covers of hiphip songs, but I'm glad she got hers in before the ban.
