Vancouver rapper Baba Brinkman has a new video entitled "DNA".

It's part of The Rap Guide to Evolution , which is being performed off-Broadway at the Soho Playhouse in New York until November 6.

"This one is about DNA replication and the molecular basis of evolution, with a distinctively Middle Eastern vibe, some incredible James Bond-inspired animations, and belly dancers!" Brinkman wrote in an email to me today.

This reminds me of awkward christian apologetics.

Like when christians use famous icons of pop culture, like CSI, and create new acronyms for thme like "Christ Saves Individuals," and slap it on t-shirts.

Awkward.
