1. Daisy's Lullaby
Featuring such smooth lines as “These Eggs are scrambled / You’re full of lies. / Oh, these love triangles / Under T.J.’s eyes.”
2. The Great Gatsby Rap (The Valley Of Ashes)
Nice summary of Gatsby's destructive obsession with Daisy. Favorite line: “How much do I hate being rich? Zero.”
3. Great Gatsby Rap Video
A great introspective piece on the American Dream: “The prettiest people do the ugliest things.” Indeed!
4. Who Am I? Call Me Jay Gatsby
Definitely the catchiest option I found. Laughed super-hard at them rolling around atop a Ford (And doesn't the guy playing Tom look like Tupac?): “My name is Jay Gatsby, and I’m reppin’ West Egg.” Heck yeah, old sport.
5. Great Gatsby Rap Battle
Decent modern interpretation of the confrontation between Tom and Gatsby: "I stick to makin' money, you stick to playin' polo." (Ends kind of abruptly, though.)
6. Hook Me Up With Daisy
And possibly the scariest video tribute I found comes from these guys who, with their bizarre growling, prove that nothing is safe from the pop culture maelstrom that is “Call Me Maybe.”
....Let's hope yours can beat that one, at least.
