Juvenile Dropped A Remix Today Titled "Vax That Thang Up" And Yes This Is Real Life
Mashable - This summer we're vaxxed and waxed baby, and Juvenile is spreading the good word with a vaccine-themed remix of his 1998 party anthem "Back That Azz Up." BLK, a dating app for Black singles, produced the PSA in an effort to boost vaccination rates among young people.
Mannie Fresh reprises his role (with a pro-vaccine twist), rapping "Girl you can be the queen / after quarantine / we could meet up at the spot and we can do the thing." In lieu of Lil Wayne's "Drop it like it's hot," hip-hop legend Mia X sings, "If you wanna smash some dude named Scott, go, go, go get the shot." And Juvenile returns with a remixed hook, shuffling white CDC vaccination cards while rapping about herd immunity.
Lotteries for a million dollars, free festival tickets, McDonalds french fries, free scratch tickets, full scholarships, free hunting rifles and hunting bows, free Krispy Kreme donuts, and even free pot.
It seems everywhere you look there's another incentive for people to get vaccinated.
Now, in hindsight, it was all just a waste of time.
All the world needed this whole time was "Vax That Thang Up" from the Ca$h Money Records brain trust. Juve, Manny Fresh, and Mia X. Sadly there is no Lil Wayne on this remix. Would have loved to heard his covid spin on these bars-
Now now now now now
After you back it up, then stop
Then wha-wha-what, drop drop it like it's hot
Now after you back it up, then stop
Now, wha-wha-wha-what drop it like it's hot
Now drop it like it's hot, drop drop it like it's hot
C-M-B make you drop it like it's hot
Drop it like it's hot, drop drop it like it's hot
Drop it like it's hot, drop drop it like it's hot
Ha
I love this idea though. Lets dig up some more dead bodies and resurrect them with some vaccine remixes. Off the top of my head here are a few -
Color Me Badd - " I Wanna Vax You Up"
Marky Mark - "Good Vaccinations"
The Ramones - "I Wanna Be Vaccinated"
p.s. - I cannot even begin to fathom the marketing meeting and pitch that was behind this. Who was sitting around kicking around ideas to inspire people to get vaccinated when a light bulb went off over their head and they shouted out, "I got it! Let's get Juvenile to re-record "Back That Azz Up" as "Vax That Thang Up". Brass balls.
