Video game raps have become something of a meme unto themselves, but have you ever heard one about pirates sailing the high seas? If not, then you're in for a treat.
British rapper and gamer Dan Bull has been putting out video game raps for a little while now, including ones saluting titles like Dead Space 3 and other Assassin's Creed titles. In this case, he drops his thick British accent and goes for more a raspy pirate tone, which fits perfectly in the Assassin's Creed IV high seas aesthetic. You wouldn't think that a goofy novelty rap about a video game could be so catchy and absorbing, but alas, Dan Bull has the sick skills to pay the bills.
Bull's rhymes have him conquering the high seas, "from Kingston to Bristol."
