It's time again for the Sexist comments of the week! Remember White &#38; Crazy Kids, of date-rape anthem “Get Your Drink On” fame? Well, they read this thing where I called them douchebags, and wrote in to get Very Serious about how they were Just Joking.

First, let's review some highlights of "Get Your Drink On":

<p>It's time again for the <em>Sexist</em> comments of the week! Remember White &amp; Crazy Kids, of date-rape anthem “Get Your Drink On” fame? Well, they <a href="http://www.washingtoncitypaper.com/blogs/sexist/2009/06/11/date-rape-anthem-the-douchiest-date-rape-song-ever/">read this thing where I called them douchebags</a>, and wrote in to get Very Serious about how they were Just Joking.</p>
<p><span id="more-4553"></span></p>
<p>First, let's review some highlights of "Get Your Drink On":</p>
<blockquote><p>- "Blacked out getting head from a fat chick"</p>
<p>- "As soon as I black out, I act out" / "Five a.m. come around, I’m pulling my dick out."</p>
<p>- "Patron ‘em up, and they get down to blowin’"</p></blockquote>
<p>As you can see, the date-rape themes in "Get Your Drink On" are mostly intelligible! Which is more than I can say for the following defenses of its date-rape themes:</p>
<p><cite class="comment_author"></cite><strong><a rel="external nofollow" href="http://www.whiteandcrazykids.com/">Jt</a></strong>, who is listed as a <a href="http://whiteandcrazykids.com/index.html">contact</a> on the White &amp; Crazy Kids Web site (and who may just be white and crazy enough to be in the band!) writes:</p>
<blockquote><p>The white crazy kids is a funny hiphop group and your taking the lryic too seriously! Their going to become the biggest thing since wired al! Jk but there pretty damn good and think there better Aston r.</p></blockquote>
<p><strong>Beast mode</strong> writes:</p>
<blockquote><p>This is supposed to be music u get drunk to anyway. That’s why they put a parental advisory sticker on cd’s. Quit hatn and grab ur cup.nbig</p></blockquote>
<p><strong>toblerone</strong> writes:</p>
<blockquote><p>So the white and crazy kids with a song called “Get Your Drink On” rates lower on the “Date-Rape Jamology” than a song by a group named “Anal Cunts” named “You Were Too Ugly To Rape”? Ok, you and your silly blog need to shut up…now.</p></blockquote>

<p><strong>Brightest Young Things</strong> introduces us to "<a href="http://www.brightestyoungthings.com/music/the-biggest-a-holes-on-the-planet-have-a-record-deal/">the worst hip-hop group ever</a>": "White &amp; Crazy Kids." How crazy are they? So crazy, they just might black out and rape somebody. With an impressive one-two-punch, the worst hip hop group ever may have created the douchiest date rape song ever. It's called "Get Your Drink On." Let's take a listen.</p>
<p><span id="more-4390"></span></p>
<p><strong>Date Rape Anthem</strong>: <strong>White &amp; Crazy Kids</strong>' "Get Your Drink On." I really don't want to make you go over to their Web site, but I think you have to <a href="http://whiteandcrazykids.com/music.html">listen to it here</a>.</p>
<p><strong>Relevant Lyrics</strong>:</p>
<blockquote><p><em>Swallow the bottle til it's hollow<br />
Get your drink on, get your drink on, baby get your drink on<br />
Blacked out getting head from a fat chick<br />
Get your drink on, baby get your drink on<br />
In your car doing 80 in a 40 zone<br />
Get your drink on, get your drink on<br />
Waking up with a chick that you don't know<br />
Get your drink on, get your drink on</em></p></blockquote>
<blockquote><p><em>. . . As soon as I black out, I act out<br />
Find me at the bar because I'm buying all the [unintelligible]<br />
Four a.m. come around, I'm gettin' kicked out.<br />
Five a.m. come around, I'm pulling my dick out.</em></p></blockquote>
<p><strong>Why It's So Rapey</strong>: With songs like "First I Get My Cup," "Drinking is Guaranteed," and the jazz-infused douche jam "Feelin' It," these guys make <strong>Asher Roth</strong> look like a <a href="http://www.washingtoncitypaper.com/blogs/sexist/2009/05/20/date-rape-anthem-asher-roths-i-love-college/">feminist musical genius</a>.</p>
<p>"Get Your Drink On" is a lot like Roth's "I Love College," actually. But instead of Roth's safe-sex message&#8212;"when it comes to condoms, put two on"&#8212;we have the White &amp; Crazy Kids boasting about having "no condoms on." And in place of Roth's date-rape warning&#8212;"don't have sex if she's too gone&#8212;we have this: "Patron 'em up, and they get down to blowin'."</p>
<p>I suspect that "Get Your Drink On" was concocted in a laboratory by anti-date-rape advocates looking for the perfect pop culture antidote to alcohol-assisted acquaintance rape. After hearing the White &amp; Crazy Kids rap about passing out in cars, not remembering having sex, and hooking up with chicks who go to Arizona State, would-be date rapists can come to only one conclusion: Rape is the douchiest thing in the world. If you don't want to be a douche, don't do anything these guys "rap" about.</p>
<p>On the <a href="http://www.washingtoncitypaper.com/blogs/sexist/2009/05/28/a-hierarchy-of-date-rape-jams/"><strong>Hierarchy of Date Rape Jams</strong></a>, "Get Your Drink On" scores a zero sweetness score and a zero positivity score, making it, in fact, the douchiest song about date rape. Ever:</p>
