Grynch - “My Volvo” Video
Ballard’s rap monarch Grynch has released a video to what seems to have become his most popular song, an ode to his bucket—a 1986 Volvo 240 SL. Can somebody get this guy an endorsement deal?
The “my hooptie” song has been done since, well, ”My Hooptie”—but none have focused on a vehicle as dependable, safe, and so patently Northwest-parent as “My Volvo”. Produced by young Tacoma producer Ill Pill, “Volvo” is no mere poppy fluke; this song to me contains some of Grynch’s best rhyming and most fluid flow he’s yet laid down. Grynch is preparing his next album, and even getting to work with some of his heroes (a collaboration with Warren G, a guy who inspired Grynch’s jazzy-everydude-in-Dickies persona, is already in the can as of last week). His next show is May 6 at Neumos.
Macklemore’s take on the “My Volvo” video is hilariously, awfully familiar…
