This past week was a tough one for true artists. The world lost of pair of geniuses David Bowie and Alan Rickman. A new generation needed to step up and bestow upon mankind a masterpiece that will echo throughout the ages.
Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you the Latvian hip-hop duo OLAS and their latest hit, "Keep Calm Like Kristaps Porzingis."
Here's a rough translation, courtesy of P&T'er LatWen T:
OLAS are here
Keep calm like Kristaps Porziņģis
Keep calm like Kristaps Porziņģis
Keep calm like Kristaps Porziņģis
Keep calm like Kristaps PorziņģisMy height is way shorter
From Latvia -- as much as dangerous
And everything what's on me
Is for real -- I am calm like KristapsDouble-double, triple-double
Wherever I am, dab on them
It's brand new Lambo
You ask me do you? Yes I've gotEveryone moves aside
Because he comes through on a ride
Player number six
Can't interrupt him
Carmelo Anthony shout out
Pass to Porzingis it's a knock out!
You better don't even come close baby
You know he's gonna send you home
They say he's from Liepāja
And where is he now?
New York Knicks
SIXKeep calm like Kristaps Porziņģis
Keep calm like Kristaps Porziņģis
Keep calm like Kristaps Porziņģis
Keep calm like Kristaps Porziņģis
As you can see, this video has literally everything. There are Lambos in the snow, with Latvian projects in the background.
There's a traditional Latvian dancing girl.
There's Kristaps's jersey, blowing in the wind like a battle flag.
And there is Auto-Tune. Oh yes, there is Auto-Tune.
Please keep cranking out songs like this, Latvian rappers. Y'all are a gift to humanity.
