Dr. Seuss meets Dr. Dre: Trust us when we say you’ve never heard ‘Fox in Sox’ read quite like this...


Wes Tank raps Dr. Seuss' classic children's book "Fox in Sox" over Dr. Dre's legendary hip hop beats for "What's the Difference" and "Let Me Ride" with much due respect to the flows and styles of Dr. Dre, Eminem, Xzibit and Snoop Dogg.

  1. Quo vadis, Domine?
    Back to Rome until it hurts!
    Line me up for sixteen bars
    And spittin' fire with Padre Burns.

      Domine, quo vadis?
      Back to Rome until it hurts!
      Line me up for sixteen bars
      And spittin' fire with Father Burns.

      Pontifex, Fortuna,
      Bridges built by undergrounds.
      Trampling death by death's dilemma,
      Easter fire ignites new sounds.

      They used to say the head is heavy
      When head's capped by a crown,
      But now the burden’s easy
      Since we found the empty tomb.

      The good news is Christ’s risen.
      The hope is you’ll rise, too.
      We believe in one baptism
      And God's Judgement coming soon.

      Pontifex, Fortuna--
      Bridges built by undergrounds--
      Trampling death by death's dilemma,
      Easter fire ignites new sounds.

      When the head's capped by a crown,
      But now the burden’s easy
