Jimmy Fallon Slams Aussie Rapper Bangs

Many music and or general internet enthusiasts will remember a certain rap video that went viral in 2008 created by Sudanese-born Melbourne rapper Bangs. 

The track, Take You To Da Movies made the musician an internet sensation when the accompanying video clip went viral with over 400,000 views and he was even invited to perform at the now defunct Big Day Out music festival. 

But seven years on popular US talk show host Jimmy Fallon got his hands on the song and delivered his own verdict. 

Fallon featured the song on The Tonight Show in a regular segment known as 'Do Not Play' in which he goes through a number of music acts and their songs that he encourages people to never listen to. 

"He doesn't even have any bangs. He's got a headband on, you can't even see his bangs," Fallon said after showing the single cover artwork to the camera. 

"Maybe if you get the double album you'll get to see his Bangs".

After playing a snippet for the crowd, Fallon quickly called a halt to the song calling it "terrible".

"He's not joking, it's a real dude...it's not me making this up," he laughed, adding "he's being very descriptive".

Not taking the joke too harshly, Bangs shared a video of the segment to his Facebook writing with the post: "I know Jimmy Fallon making fun of me, but hey I got the attention tho."

It hasn't seem to phase the hip-hop artist however, who last year wrapped up his first tour of New Zealand and earlier this month released the single and video for his latest track, Who Do U Believe In.
