Preppy Kids Anywhere

While we admire what the young people of Andover tried to do in this promotional video, producing an 8-min. rap video in which you earnestly use words like matriculation isn't going to help you seem less out of touch with those students the school is hoping to recruit. Further setting back the private-skool-rap genre is Chet Hanks, son of actor and fellow bad rapper Tom Hanks, who spits rhymes like "She a freshman/ She a freak, though/ In the bed, but a lady in the street, yo" in his Northwestern University–themed remix of Wiz Khalifa's "Black and Yellow."
