UTB After Dark: 2018 Class Board Elections Bring Saddest Rap Battle of All Time

YIKES. Brace yourselves, Penn, because this is cringe-worthy. Every fall, an absurdly large crop of wide-eyed, over-competitive freshmen make bids for elected positions of "power" for Class Board and Undergraduate Assembly. We're used to the bad puns and corny vids and the consistent lack of swagger among 18-year-old boys who were recently in high school. (Can you say girl power?)

Well, frosh prez candidates Barry Oshiba and Noah Falk have outdone 'em all with a painfully bad rap battle. They're linked below, but warning: you'll prob vomit a little in your mouth and boycott ever voting for either of these candidates, who need to do way, way less.

Click this link for Barry's "rap" video taking down all his competitors, complete with light sexism and a creepy wink. He says he means no offense, but Noah Falk just had to post a "rebuttal." It calls out Oshiba for his Barack-ish name (burn), but get your barf bag ready for the last 30 seconds. (Spoiler: WINKING.) Noah's vid has half the likes and double the creepiness of the original, and not just because they're twins. (All twins are apparently the worst?)

Now, we always relish in assigning arbitrary points in our Race to the UA posts, all while giving wannabes all the publicity they need. And since all press is good press, so let's hope Oshiba and Falk keep their public Facebook raps up for our enjoyment horror.
