Rap-Up.com || Video: Nick Cannon f/ Akon

Nick Cannon aims for the laughs with the parody video for “Famous,” the Akon-assisted single from his forthcoming album. The comedian-rapper imitates icons including Michael Jackson, KISS’ Gene Simmons, Fred Astaire, and MC Hammer, as well as those with fleeting fame such as “Bed Intruder” Antoine Dodson and “Golden Voice” Ted Williams.

“I always say, everybody in a nightclub is famous. Everybody getting their shine on, everybody ballin’,” Nick tells Rap-Up.com. “It’s one of those songs that when it comes on, you can dance like you famous, drink like you famous, party like you famous.”

he’s not funny @ all WTF? What are ya’ll, 5? You find this irrelevant shit funny. I just can’t. & before you call me hater, if I was hating I wouldn’t be saying shit like “he’s not funny,” He’s Mariah’s bitch & nothing more.

When I heard about this song am little off #1 he can’t sing. #2 Mariahs Butler LoL #3 no the video seems like already seen it before. Stay with americas got talent. Not. Hating just being honest. The only good thing is doing is being a father and bCory Gunz

Depending on your age you can appreciate where Nick went with his video. Smart move. What does Mariah have to do with this? He’s the same person he was before marrying her. He’s a comedian, actor that just so happens to rap. Lil will smith. LOL.
