Park Slope Has Its Very Own Hip Hop Group

Well, sorta. 

In the dregs of YouTube, we've discovered a very special gem of internet glory -- a song called "La Dee Da Dee" by a musical super group that goes by the name "Park Slope." Never heard of em'? Yeah, me neither. BUT this music video of what looks like their only "hit" (I use the word hit loosely), is pretty much exactly what happens in the day-to-day life of the average Slope citizen. 

Alright, so maybe it's nothing like what really happens in Park Slope. I'm actually starting to doubt they've ever been to New York City for that matter, considering they are riding Segways while rapping. Let's break it down into a couple scenes that exemplify how un-Park Slope "Park Slope" actually is.

If you replace the daisy duke-wearing video girls with mommies, this could actually be the construction in front of the Barclays Center (though there's no way that Slopers would like THAT much advertising on the side of anything. What an eyesore).

We may be into weird scooters, three-person wagon bikes and rollerblading in while wearing thongs over shorts down 7th avenue, but a Segway? C'mon. Also, riding on an open-air mode of transportation through the streets of any Chinatown is a terrible idea.

Park Slope 4 Lyfe.
