'Let's Go Brandon!' Song Soars to 1 on iTunes
[BREITBART] The viral ’Let’s Go Brandon!’ mass take down of President Joe The Big Guy Biden
...46th president of the U.S. We hold these truths to be self-evident. All men and women created ... by the — you know — you know, the thing...
has inspired a unique rap version that on Sunday perched squarely at the top of the iTunes hip-hop chart.

Fox News reported the song, performed by rapper Loza Alexander and titled "Let’s Go Brandon," first went viral on TikTok before quickly joining the iTunes hip-hop chart to clinch the number one spot.

The piece was inspired by the "Let’s Go Brandon!" trend sweeping the country since NBC sports news hound Kelli Stavast interviewed NASCAR driver Brandon Brown after his victory at Alabama’s Talladega Superspeedway earlier this month.

As Breitbart News reported, the crowd could be heard chanting in the background during the interview "F— Joe Biden" which Stavast claims to have misheard as "Let’s Go Brandon!"

"Brandon, you also told me," Stavast said before being interrupted by the crowd. "As you can hear the chants from the crowd..." she added, before claiming the crowd was saying, "’Let’s Go, Brandon!’"

The exchange quickly went viral on social media, with some users speculating the news hound intentionally attempted to mischaracterize the crowd’s chanting to spare her blushes and those of the interviewee.

From there the phrase became a catch cry for opponents of the president, finding its way onto merchandise while others began chanting it at sporting events, with a child at NAPA’s Super DIRT Week at the Oswego Speedway even exclaiming, "let’s go Brandon!" when asked by an announcer to "help kick this thing off."

Now the hip hop version rules the iTunes charts.

In the days since the mocking chant was first heard, neither NBC nor Stavast has commented on Stavast’s false claim about the NASCAR crowd.

Elsewhere the establishment media has also played its part in seeking to protect the president from the predations of public opinion.

#1 The question is: Was Kelli Savast really thinking that quickly on her feet or did she and her colleagues plan it ahead of time?

#3 Probably talked about over a pitcher of Manhattans the night before, one of those 'gugh, if it is at the football and the baseball, it will be at the race track rubefest', and this just kind of fell out of her mouth.

Kind of like when a dog has consider eating that pile of cat shit, then falls out of its mouth surprised by the taste.

#4 The rap song is concise, technically sound, and effective.

#5 Slightly off topic:

If you watch The Closer, you have to watch it to the very end. Chapelle is a Stand Up Philosopher, which means occasionally your ox gets gored.
