American Idol had William Hung and the "Pants on the Ground" guy.  The Republican Party had Herman Cain, Mr. "9-9-9".  It looks like hip hop now has its idiot genius: Lil B, AKA "Based God".  With millions of views on YouTube, hundreds of memes and guest lectures at NYU the million dollar question is who the heck is Based God?

Based God ia actually a 22-year-old rapper named Lil B who raps with a foul tongue and a cadence that is noticeably off beat.  What most would call a "wack style" Based God has turned his dirty, comical raps-that-dont-always-rhyme into an Internet sensation with millions of social media followers and hundreds of memes. 

Based God is no "flash in the pan" as he has been hot for a couple of years now.  He even gave a guest lecture at NYU last night to a room full of 500 students hanging on his every word as he described the Based God philosophy of life.

We don't publish his kind of language on the site so if you want to hear his rapping you will have to find it yourself on YouTube.  All I can say is welcome to the 21st century of rap and a resounding:

WTF?!?
