RRR’s YouTube Glory

I’m late on posting this, but my educational rap music company, Rhythm, Rhyme, Results, had a “Featured Video” on the YouTube homepage this week! Around the date of the presidential inauguration last month, our song “44 Presidents” got a lot of attention and caused a huge spike in traffic on our site.

On a whim, I gathered a bunch of pictures from Wikipedia, threw together a basic slideshow, and uploaded it to YouTube, not thinking anything of it; residual traffic garnered it about 16,000 hits over the next few weeks.

Thanks to President’s Day and the Google Gods, it just got over 200,000 hits in two days! You can see the lyrics, buy the song, and more at RRR’s 44 Presidents song page.

UPDATE:  You can hear more about us and this song (in its older form, “43 Presidents”) in an NPR audio feature on us that aired in April 2008.  (Direct audio link, requires RealPlayer.)

Hi, I'm Robbie Mitchell.
I live in NYC, work at Knewton, and co-founded a sweet educational rap company.

I obsess about data analysis and minor progressions.
