Fantastically done.

I like the original, and from the first few "beats" of the track, I think Al nailed it! (Pun intended).

Lead single material? Maybe, actually. Al's flow is great, I expected him to sing lower, but since he sings it higher, he's able to mimic some of the attitude that Iggy A. / Charlie XCX infuse in the original. (Handaaaaayyyy). Loved this track.

I'm surprised he didn't parody the ending, instead of " I G G Y ", it should have been " I D I Y - who do dat that do dat. .. Screw dat., glue dat...." If you ever go to Home Depot or Lowes DIY is all over the place. Do It Yourself.

He parodied that part. He said "maybe I could rewire your house for fun"

Well, that wasn't really the end part though. That's the "I-G-G-Y" from the second verse. But either way, "I D I Y" would mean "I do it yourself," which doesn't make any sense. I think Al made the right choice. If he doesn't have any ideas that work for a section, he cuts it and passes the savings along to us.

It would've been funny if he did say DIY in that part though...I'm sure Al could figure it out

Actually it would make sense in that he's doing a parody of Iggy Azalea who thinks it's cool to use bad grammar. She does it throughout her song. Also there are women who refer to themselves as Milfs, yet it still makes sense.

I've never heard a single woman call herself a MILF...and that wouldn't make the slightest but of sense haha
