AMATEUR WORDSMITH | 2024 REMAKE | 1,000,000 SUBS SPECIAL!
 Lossless
353,806 Views ā€¢ Feb 9, 2024 ā€¢ Click to toggle off description
In 2016 I released the very first video on this channel. A (very bad) song called ā€˜Amateur Wordsmithā€™. The description was as follows:

ā€œHere's the first track of the new channel! It seems lots of rappers like to rap about their rap skills. I thought I'd do the same...
Massive thanks to Rude Velvet for the beats and to Paul Marke for his editing assistance!ā€

My descriptions tend to be a bit more long-winded nowadays, so bear with meā€¦

Thank you so much to everyone who has subscribed to this channel ā€“ all one million of you! Hitting this milestone is obviously a huge achievement for any YouTuber, so I felt like getting a bit nostalgic and completely remaking Amateur Wordsmith. This has been way more involved than any of my remasters Iā€™ve done before on the channel. Itā€™s less of a remaster, not even a re-make, more of a re-imagining. What would a song I made a decade ago sound like if I made it today? Thereā€™s an all new beat, rewritten lyrics, and a shiny new video ā€“ all inspired by the original, but all (I hope) massively improved!

The red furry coat and striped blazer are the same costumes from the original video, but you might notice there are a few new ones, as well as some new costumes, and costumes from videos past. In fact, this video breaks the record for most costumes weā€™ve ever used in a video! Twenty-Eight!

I hope you all enjoyed this little bit of self-indulgence, and if you watch to the very end, you might see thereā€™s more to come. The 1 million celebrations arenā€™t over just yet! But donā€™t worry, weā€™ll be back to our regularly scheduled nerdy gaming content soon.

Thanks to all of you who helped me get here!

THE STUPENDIUM 1,000,000 SUBSCRIBER STUPENDI-COIN IS NOW AVAILABLE AGAIN! bit.ly/StupendiCoin LYRICS: Seems a lot of rappers like to rap about how good they are at rapping? Iā€™m better than I used to be But Iā€™d still hate to be dishonest with youā€¦ VERSE1: So, hip-hop's a new hobby I'm attempting But there's a hiccup that needs circumventing A niggle in the middle of the job of my dreams And that's a lack of practice when exploring the themes I can't rap about bitches and hoes, riches and clothes Beating up and leaving stitches in foes I'm not familiar with those - and it's an issue, I know 'Cause they're thematically what rappers seem to spit in their flows Without the clout, well what's that really leave me with, hmm? What do I spout if not some needless egotism? I'll leave you wishing you'd switched off your speaker system Scheme of visionary lyricism? Eh... It really isn't And I anticipate the criticism ā€“ why are the lyrics different? And does the act of improving the rap on a track about the fact That youā€™re crappy at that kinda clash? Really match your initial vision? Itā€™s a weird decision, well, you can quit your bitchinā€™ If I could be forgiven, tell me, who just hit the million? I did ā€“ so if you could adjust your position And sit and swivel on my lyrical juxtaposition CHORUS: I'm just an amateur wordsmith You'll be indifferent the instant you've heard it When I'm finished, you'll be wishing you'd skipped the track So, here's five minutes you won't get back VERSE 2: Iā€™d wager thereā€™s no other rapper so fine tailored Iā€™ve paid for far too many nice blazers Styleā€™s dangerous, all my tailors sign waivers Fruit so fresh, I'm practically lime flavoured If my drip seems plain, I donā€™t got a lot of bling Wanna talk about chains? See my pocket watch swing Yeah, my number of cufflinks is disgusting My sleeves hold together better than my rhyming If you need a dapper rapper, Iā€™m your them, G Iā€™m going wild across the board ā€“ Jumenji Yeah, this scheme donā€™t really work now that Iā€™m enby But if Iā€™m not your first choice? Iā€™ll be your plen B So hit skip if I ainā€™t taking your fancy ā€˜Cause Iā€™m pretty quick but I ainā€™t breaking the land-speed ā€˜Cause Iā€™m pretty slick but they ainā€™t flailing their panties ā€˜Cause I need the clicks but I ainā€™t catering to rap beef Schemes thicc like my pen raided the pantry Queen Vic how my bars flame up and fans weep Niche mix like Iā€™m feat. Statham and Lansbury Feet pics? You see me making a Fansly? You know I actually prefer the original, run it back ā€˜Cause Iā€™m pretty quick but I ainā€™t breaking the land-speed Oh, youā€™ve got a plan B? Heck, Iā€™ll be your plan Z Iā€™ll be waiting in the Q - John De Lancie Just another white ā€˜guyā€™ dressed up in a nice tie Thinks their rhymes are quite fly but itā€™s nothing you ainā€™t heard before Flipped the drive-bys for lyrical fine dining Green on the mic ā€“ pique your appetite? Herbivore Know that the juiciest flowā€™s squeezed out of oranges I make salads from the leaves of thesauruses Abecedarian, apprentice, aspirant, admissible Acceptable and adequate and average, more or less CHORUS: I'm just an amateur wordsmith You'll be indifferent the instant you've heard it When I'm finished, you'll be wishing you'd skipped the track So, here's five minutes you won't get back VERSE 3: I got the sauce in the pan, so just let me cook So that my mum and my nan can pretend it looks Like theyā€™re pleased I escaped from the desk and books And my degreeā€™s not a waste of the debts I took Rapā€™s bonne vivante? Or whack hack ā€“ a crook? Perhaps my songs just haunt like Iā€™m the Rapadook? My lines go on and on just like a babbling brook Fishing for compliments without a catchy hook The fact that this is my jobā€™s actually mental ā€˜Cause chance is any mic dropā€™s accidental Hit my street cred limit and my flow-verdraft And if Iā€™m making paper then itā€™s only crafts Yeah, I flow so white like a Grecian toga Need on more pun here to meet my quota The craft theme might still see me over The only pigment here is medi-ochre Thereā€™s never been a fella so bereft of any melanin Attempting to be clever rhyming melanin with theremin Or terrapins called Sheridan or trendy gyms with ferrets in Will heaven ever let me in? Iā€™m winging more than seraphim Pathetically projecting just a semblance of intelligence By speccing into eloquence instead of making any sense Like Robin and his merry men arrested by the sheriff then Subjected to experiments to render them American CHORUS: I'm just an amateur wordsmith You'll be indifferent the instant you've heard it When I'm finished, you'll be wishing you'd skipped the track So, here's five minutes you won't get back VERSE 4: My couplets arenā€™t scuffed as some youā€™ve heard I put a lot of care in pairing up the funny words 50% of the time? Nifty attempt at a rhyme The other half itā€™sā€¦ well, itā€™s not My skill with similes I really havenā€™t mastered But like a massive car crash Iā€™m slowly moving past it Now weā€™re at the point I really didnā€™t want to start yet Let us now revisit the obligatory fast bit Kid from the South, pissing about Lyrics arenā€™t spitting, just dribbling down Spewing a slew musically askew As Iā€™m chewing up tunes and then spitting them out Failing at fame, fairly forgettable Shameless and vain, employing a pedestal Quips and the flips are both varied and plentiful Spit ā€˜em this quick and theyā€™re nearly illegible Tongue tasked with too much to handle Bars so whack, still canā€™t hold a candle Get that bag? Itā€™s straight from the landfill But I have now featured with Dan Bull But if my lyrics are lacking a little It lengthens them leaning liberally alliterative Lining up letters, while lyrically gimmickyā€™s Leaving you locked with your lexicon limited Looking for lines that alliterate wittily Lands you in loops in the leaves of a dictionary Logging a litany of logical liberties Letting the lemons elope in your limousine Linguistic littering, lazily writ Less likely to leave me labelled as lit Lift up the lid and you plainly can tell Clearly, Iā€™m really just taking the L Blimey, youā€™re still here! Wow! Didnā€™t think youā€™d make it up until I slowed down Thanks for humouring my stupor of a flow You've been super and I know that you all wanna go now Just a smidgeon of revision and some little new additions As I fix up all the bits that the original was missing Reenvisaging felt fitting as we hit upon the million Thanks for giving it a listen to revisit the beginning I appreciate Iā€™ve kept you for some time Without boobs or a reference to gun crime Iā€™ve tweaked the beats and I added some fun rhymes But I need to concede itā€™s still lacking a punchline

People say "Eminem been real quiet since this dropped" ironically, but in this case... Rap God's fast bit, specifically the 14,7 seconds starting with "Uh, summa-lumma..." and ending with "get em motivated" (after which the elevator music bar comes), has 141 syllables, and lasts for 14,6 seconds. I counted. That is 9.59 syllables per second. Insane. ...except, Stupes's fast bit over here, specifically the part from "But if my lyrics are lacking a little-" to "Lift off the lid and you clearly can tell", is 131 syllables. In 12,22 seconds. That's 10,72 syllables/second. Fucking hell. Why be a god when you can be a Great Old One, I guess. PS: The sheer force with which you rap the chorus is insane. I have never been so intimidated by someone proclaiming themself as average. Post-Post-Scriptum: Counting the syllables also made me realize Stupes's lines are more even. Compare 17-16-32-13-19-16-16-12 To 11-15-12-12-12-13-13-12-10-10-10.

This remake is a ton of fun. I'm sure most of these outfits will be in the wardrobe for a possible future use, but you should keep the 00:55 orange coat or 1:34 lime blazer in your car's trunk in case you break down while travelling at night and need to be seen from a distance (they can probably see those on the ISS).

Okay, but seriously, Stupes, do you ever, after you've written a section of a song, (like Bob's verse in NEATH for example,) hold it up at arm's length like one of those pretentious snobs in some British drama series, and go "Yup, this is the smartest wordplay and quite possibly greatest contribution to the written word anyone has produced/will produce this year... and most people won't ever even hear about it... and among those who do, most won't understand just how brilliant it really is"? I mean, you obviously had your brags in the Scrabble section of Chairman of The Board, but do you ever truly give yourself the credit you deserve? Or do you let us do that for you? xD Really looking forward to Adequate Wordsmith~ā™„
