A fantastic article on the Chronicles of Narnia rap - The Chronicles of Narnia Rap - It won't save Saturday Night Live, but it could save hip hop.

And the NPR piece that went with it - Slate's Culturebox: Rapping to 'Chronicles of Narnia'

Rather than lampoon today's artists, Samberg and Parnell evoke old-school rap. The whole presentation—the lyrics, the flow, and the aesthetic—owes more to New York rappers from the '80s than to anything that's getting made today. The way they trade rhymes and enunciate the end of each line—"You can call us Aaron Burr / From the way we're droppin' HAM-IL-TONS"—recalls the delivery of 1980s artists like Run-DMC. The production values, New York street scenes, and silly similes call to mind early Beastie Boys tracks. Really, is "I've got mad hits like I was Rod Carew" any less ridiculous than "I love those cupcakes like McAdams loves Gosling"?

Hip-hop doesn't need saving.

Hip-hop doesn't need saving.

Meh, depends on what you enjoy. I like stuff from the 80s, but can't get into much of what is "popular" today. The few contemporary groups I do listen to are all far outside the mainstream.

Not to be argumentative, but no - it does not depend on what you enjoy.

Implying that hip-hop needs saving implies that they aren't selling records and aren't making money.

None of which is empirically true.

Just because something sells doesn't mean that it's an artistically worthy sucessor to the pioneers of hip hop. If one values what made early hip hop unique and powerful, then modern commercial hip hop can be viewed as having strayed so far that it needs a serious readjustment to once again capture that spirit again.

"To save" can mean

To rescue from harm, danger, or loss.

To set free from the consequences of sin; redeem.

One could argue that the Narnia piece seeks to reclaim the lost spirit of early hip hop that is in danger of being lost in the modern hip hop culture.

Ok, so people who don't like hip-hop think hip-hop isn't artistically worthy any more?

Big surprise.
