This 'Lion King' Rap Is Straight-Up Brilliant, But Don't Let The Kids Hear It (NSFW)

'The Lion King' Retold, In Brilliant (And NSFW) Rap

This will likely be the least PG-rated telling of "The Lion King" you'll ever see. But we bet it'll also be one of the realest.

"I was thinking if a thug told the story of 'The Lion King,' how would it go?" rapper Lil Dicky prefaced his lyrical re-imagining of the Disney classic. (Follow along with lyrics, here.)

This video is actually from 2013, but it's experienced a viral resurgence in recent weeks. "I love this song so much," a YouTuber declared Sept. 11.

This is "my childhood in 5 mins," quipped another.

WARNING: This video contains some NSFW language. It's not safe for work, and not safe for the Disney Channel.
