Vanilla Ice sets off tax rap madness on youtube
It began, inevitably, with a corporate anthem (thank you, KPMG http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iTqIN1ZJPAI), progressed via a group of ill-advised recently qualified accountants in Asia (stand up the Hong Kong 'tute of Chartered Accountants http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xUcxvwAQ_n4) and now, we're sorry to report, has plumbed new depths through a US tax software company.
Yes, we're talking about popular culture's most unlikely bedfellows: accountancy and the music business.
We don't know what Turbo Tax we're thinking of when they hired dubious eighties rapper Vanilla Ice to front a YouTube-based competition to find America's best tax rapper. But we're glad they did. CONT.
The horrific result – 150 entries and counting, that's right 150 – can be seen at www.youtube.com/thetaxrap. The contest is to early to call but the early money has to be on radripz.
If you're misguided enough to submit an entry don't forget to let TS know and we'll treat it with all the respect and reverence it deserves.

This is a great song and video. Someone should sign DMLH to a real record deal.
