By: Gabrielle Sierra Jul. 20, 2011
Ahoy, Mateys! September 19th is the national day to talk like a pirate! Captain Dan & The Scurvy Crew will be honoring this day by releasing a double Side-A album featuring two new songs, "Rap Like A Pirate" and "Ninja Hater," along with the release of their greatest hits album, Divide the Plunder!
As well as spending the whole day talking like a pirate on September 19th, why not also rap like a pirate? Captain Dan's new song will tell you all the ways to learn how to pirate rap. This will give a new spin to the already fun-filled day of talking like a pirate.
Captain Dan says, "The track be talkin' about all our favorite pirate slangs and tons of comedy about pirate day in general. If yer a pirate on pirate day, ye MUST check this track out. It's an instant classic for all pirate parties on the holiest of pirate days!"
Along with the release of "Rap Like A Pirate," The Crew will also be releasing their new song, "Ninja Hater." With a long known history of the geek-culture debate, "Pirates vs. Ninjas," Captain Dan & The Scurvy crew have an obvious hatred for Ninjas. With the two being polar opposites - pirates, loud with big bright outfits and ninjas, stealthy in black garbs, it is understandable why they hate each other so much. With pirates dominating the world for centuries now, Captain Dan & The Scurvy Crew decided to write a song about how much they hate their arch nemesis. They recently challenged the Ninja Group, Krondor Krew, to a battle of the sword at the nerd festival of the year, Nerdapalooza, held in Orlando, FL last weekend.
If you haven't heard about Captain Dan & The Scurvy Crew yet, they are the world's first rapping pirate troupe. Hailing from the eastern seaboard, The Crew features the rap skills of Captain Dan Dolan, Brad "Sea Dawg" Podray, Scott Free, DJ SyKo, ZealouS1, MC Treasure, and Admiralty. Putting a comedic spin on all their songs, Captain Dan & The Scurvy Crew manages to produce what is today's gold standard in pirate music.
