'What is this abomination?' Labour's Dawn Butler mocked over 'cringe' general election rap
Dawn Butler, the candidate for Brent East performed a reimagining of So Solid Crew's 2001 hit 21 Seconds, reminding voters that it's 21 days until the election.
Labour's Dawn Butler has been ridiculed online after releasing an election campaign rap video, with some critics branding it an "abomination".
In a video uploaded to X on Thursday the candidate for Brent East performed a reimagining of So Solid Crew's 2001 hit 21 Seconds, reminding voters they have 21 days before the national vote on July 4.
The garage and hip hop collectives' original lyrics have been turned into an anti-Tory diss track as Butler takes aim at Prime Minister Rishi Sunak's controversial absence from D-Day celebrations in Normandy.
"Rishi at D-Day - where did he go?", she jibed, "Say Rishi at D-Day - where did he go? Like don't let a liar run the show."
Elsewhere in the track, Butler rapped that the "Labour party are here to stay, we're going to the very top, the Tories, their time is up," adding, "Cause Tories - they're too corrupt."

Full lyrics to Dawn Butler's campaign video
If you like me, let me know, let me out the shadow
We've got 21 days before they got to go
Rishi at D-Day - where did he go?
Say Rishi at D-Day - where did he go?
Like don't let a liar run the show
Like don't let a liar run the show
If you like me, let me know, let me out the shadow
We've got 21 days before they got to go
21 days t-to go
21 days t-to go
21 days t-to go
21 days to say who you like
21 days to have your say
Tories won't like me anyway
But I won't hesitate
Cause Labour party are here to stay
We're going to the very top
The Tories, their time is up
'Cause Tories - they're too corrupt
We've got 21 days to go, we've got 21 days to go
If you like me, let me know, let me out the shadow
Vote Dawn Butler
