Vinny from Jersey Shore Released A Rap Song, Offended Everyone

Unfortunately, this clip from TMZ is the only video I can find that contains any of Vinny‘s original rap. See, shortly after he posted the song on his YouTube page, it offended the entire world, so he took it down. Let me give you some of the original lyrics though, just so you can get a taste of the stylings of Vinny:

“Oh you a fan? You wanna take a pic?
I like your crack girl … I wanna take a hit.
Yeah I’m takin’ it … I’m a get you naked bitch …
We can f*ck and make it fit… boomin shit and slatin’ it.
Actin’ like I’m raping it …
f*ck her til she fakin’ it.”

So, there’s that.  Are you charmed?  No, I know, it’s disgusting. But thankfully, RAINN, as always managed to jump in with a quick schooling:

“The lyrics in Vinny Guadagnino’s new rap song that glorify rape are ignorant.  Trivializing this violent crime sends a dangerous message to the public. Use of the term ‘actin’ like’ doesn’t mitigate the harm this crime has on survivors of sexual violence. We hope that Mr. Guadagnino will reconsider his stand on this issue and leverage his platform to reinforce a zero tolerance policy for sexual violence, as he has with bullying.”

And after being properly chastised, Vinny apologized:

“I’d like to apologize for the rap.  Was meant to be a funny take on an already ‘dirty’ song –  funny since I’m known as the ‘good boy’. I am 100 percent against violence of any kind.  I work with many organizations to stop violence and bullying, and will continue to.  It’s something I strongly believe in. Very sorry to anyone I’ve offended.”

Oh, Vinny. This kid was always my favorite of those lovable Jersey Shore lunkheads because he actually seemed like he had a pretty good head on his shoulders. I’m not saying this completely negates that or that after this truly shitty rap song he’s now a horrible person to be scorned for life, but really? How can you make a song with the lyric “actin’ like I’m raping it” and assume that’s going to go over smoothly?

  • Why… I don’t believe it!

    Knuckledragging cro-magnons act like … knuckledragging cro-magnons! You mean boorish heels actually act like boorish heels? And they bloviate manure with every breath?

    News at 11!

    I mean, does no one read Aesop any longer? (Don’t answer that. It’ll hurt my head.) The frog and the scorpion anyone?

    They found the worst dregs of humanity and propped them up so the lowest common denominator can feel better-than-them. And we’re surprised that they do and think reprehensible crap?

    These people aren’t actors. What you see is pretty much how they are.

    If someone named the “sitch” lifted up his shirt and pointed at his “abs” near me, I’d laugh and ask him if he made poopie.

    Ok, that last was a cheap shot, but I’m sort of offended that these idiots get lots of money from the peanut gallery. Even Shakespeare would be appalled.
