Oh, Him? Yeah, He Came With The Van.
Dollar Van Demos provides cheap-o rides (operated by West Indian drivers, no less) around Brooklyn, focusing on neighborhoods under-served by mass transit. There's just one catch - you have to listen to guy with the microphone in the back seat.
From their YouTube page:
Dollar vans provide a much-needed transportation for neighborhoods under-served by mass transit. Typically operated by West Indian drivers, the ride is cheap, adventurous and now immensely entertaining with the addition of performers singing their hearts out.
Here's Crosby rapping "No Bodegas (Shut 'Em Down)" while a van full of bargain-hunting, middle-aged patrons stare blindly into the ether, waiting for their next stop. After the jump, take in Sally Connors' glowing rendition of "Up On The Roof"...
