DK Rap
The "DK Rap" is the introduction theme to the 1999 Nintendo 64 video game ''Donkey Kong 64''.
==Concept and History==
The "DK Rap" is the introductory theme to the Nintendo 64 video game ''Donkey Kong 64''; its lyrics describe the five playable characters in the video game - Donkey Kong, Diddy Kong, Tiny Kong, Lanky Kong, and Chunky Kong. The rap was originally conceived by ''Donkey Kong 64'' designer George Andreas and composed by then-Rare composer Grant Kirkhope.〔 Andreas took inspiration from the band Run DMC.〔 Kirkhope's goal was to do a similar concept to the concept of juxtaposing old Donkey Kong versus new Donkey Kong found in ''Donkey Kong Country''. Andreas wrote and performed the lyrics (alongside ''Donkey Kong 64'' lead programmer Chris Sutherland) to the song while Kirkhope wrote the tune. The chorus included Rare staffers such as Gregg Mayles, Steve Mayles, Ed Bryan, and Chris Peil. Each character's verse featured instrumentals which reflected the actual instruments that the different characters possessed. Kirkhope stated that it wasn't supposed to be a "serious rap" but rather a joke. Consumer and critical reaction, however, was generally negative and felt that the song was serious.〔 Kirkhope felt surprised that Nintendo objected to the use of the word "hell" and attributed it to the Bible belt in the United States.〔 The Japanese version of the "DK Rap" was not localized for the Japanese release of ''Donkey Kong 64'', nor was it subtitled. Video game designer Shigesato Itoi provided a Japanese translation of the "DK Rap" on his personal website.〔
