The New Pokerap

The New Pokerap (also stylized as The NEW Pokerap!!!) is the sixth track from the Starbomb album Player Select. It serves as a sequel to I Choose You to Die from the first album. It is based off the Pokérap, a song from the Pokémon anime that rapped the names of various Pokémon.

Danny plays Ash Ketchem in the song, while Arin plays Brock.

The song was the third from Player Select to receive an official music video, after Smash! and Minecraft Is For Everyone. This video was animated by grind3h.

Lyric Content
Ash confidently asserts that his "life is back on track" after having spent time in the hospital for the scrotum shooting he received in I Choose You to Die. However, he admits that since he's been out of commission, he's not familiar with the new Pokémon. Brock suddenly appears to help bring Ash up to speed in rap form. The first line of rap includes Kanto native Pokémon Ash is familiar with, but the rest of the lines consist of various made-up Pokémon with ridiculous names. The names consist of compound words (like Tinyhead) meant to sound ridiculous. Some Pokémon are even just regular words, like "Door." After the first verse, Ash regrets his decision to try to catch up with the new Pokémon, and after the second, he laments that "they're running out of ideas." After the third verse, he loses his patience, and shoots himself in the scrotum again to go back to the hospital and not have to deal with the insanity.

Trivia

 * This is the first sequel Starbomb song to receive an official music video.
 * This is the only instance of a character switching vocalist inbetween songs, as Arin voiced Ash in I Choose You to Die. However, in that song he more accurately was the song's narrator. Danny was likely given the role of Ash in the song because his part is mostly sung.
