In an unexpected turn of events, political commentator Ben Shapiro has teamed up with rapper Tom McDonald to release a rap song.

The track, which features Shapiro delivering lyrics for approximately 30 seconds, has rapidly climbed the iTunes charts, currently holding the fourth position in the rap genre.

Shapiro took to social media to express his surprise and amusement at the song's success, posting, "To be fair, I did warn everyone that 2024 was going to be bonkers." He also addressed rapper Nicki Minaj in a tweet, saying, "Hey, @NICKIMINAJ, it's great to join you atop the iTunes rap charts. Sorry, correction, you're a few slots lower."

The song's release has sparked a flurry of reactions online, with many users creating memes and engaging in playful trolling. Despite the mixed reactions, some have found the unexpected venture commendable. One commentator noted, "I like that Shapiro was willing to make fun of himself a bit while also trolling the industry."

The commentator further emphasized the importance of cultural influence in politics, stating, "Like it or not, culture drives politics." This sentiment echoes the famous proclamation made by Andrew Breitbart over a decade ago, which remains relevant today. The commentator added, "It's a little cringe to see Shapiro wearing a hoodie and trying to flow, but it got everyone's attention, didn't it? You have to play the game to influence it."

The song's success has also led to some amusing comparisons. Shapiro, an Orthodox Jew known for his political commentary, is currently charting above pop icons such as Taylor Swift and Nicki Minaj. The question now is whether the song will continue its ascent to the number one spot. As the commentator concluded, "Will the song end up at number one? Let's find out."
