If Fetty Wap's smash hit "Trap Queen" is a little too hip-hop for you or a little too explicit for your little ones, don't worry. Child actor and singer George Dalton released a big band cover of the top 10 hit in June, but the video is just making its rounds around the Internet today, and it's quickly becoming the next cringe-y viral video.
Dalton, an actor who has previously guested in Wet Hot American Summer: First Day of Camp, seems to be performing under the name G-Money and took Wap's ode to a trap house and his girl and turned it into a kid-friendly single about, literally, baking pies.
The music video stars Dalton, singing "Trap Queen" in a jazzy style complete with pianos and saxophones, while three girls shack up in the kitchen and cook pies for his quickly developing business.
While the premise sounds awkward enough, lyrical changes just took this "Trap Queen" cover to the next level. Wap's introductory lyrics, "I'm like 'Hey, what's up? Hello' / Seen yo pretty ass soon as you came in the door / I just wanna chill, got a sack for us to roll / Married to the money, introduced her to my stove / Showed her how to whip it, now she remixin' for low," are changed to "You looked pretty awesome when you walked through the door / I just wanna chill got some dough for us to roll." The video makes the meaning of dough clear as girls whip up some flour and read cookbooks.
The "Trap Queen" cover's oddly changed lyrics, cheesy style and whitewashing have become a fodder for the Internet to latch on to.
Now we just need a Kidz Bop version of "679."
