Now, an Australian news site has an interview with the Best Rapper on the Internet. From Channel 9:
A 19-year-old Melbourne rapper says he "feels amazing" after his song "Take U 2 Da Movies" -- an ode to cinema dates and popcorn -- became a global internet sensation.
The music clip has been viewed hundreds of thousands of times on YouTube since it was featured on popular viral video websites this week.
Ajak Chol, aka Bangs, told ninemsn he has been offered several record deals with major labels in Australia and the US since his career skyrocketed.
"It's crazy. First there were 30 or 40 views. Now it's getting more and more every day," Bangs said.
