Information on the rapper

Big Bird first appeared on the premiere of Sesame Street in 1969, and has remained one of its main characters since. He was originally designed by a drawing from Jim Henson and built by Kermit Love in 1969. The design was based on a previous Henson creation. Officially performed by the late Caroll Spinney from 1969 to 2018, he is an eight-foot two-inch tall bright yellow anthropomorphic canary. He can roller skate, ice skate, dance, swim, sing, write poetry, draw, and even ride a unicycle. Despite this wide array of talents, he is prone to frequent childlike misunderstandings, such as pronouncing the alphabet as one long word.

In 2000, Big Bird was named a Living Legend by the United States Library of Congress.

Lyrics

Verse 1:

What's up? It's your boy from Sesame Street

Here to rap against a freak with size 17 feet!

You're like Oscar the Grouch's house because you're trash!

Walkin' 'round in green like Shrek with a mustache!

Larry Bird? More like Scary Bird, you ogre!

You look like Frankenstein's monster, but older!

You're trying to battle with a childhood hero!

This one on one is gonna end with Larry Bird, zero!

Verse 2:

Wow, I can't believe what I just heard!

No way you just called me the flightless Bird!

You can't jump; you can't run! Stick to the threes

'Cause the Hick from French Lick surely can't hit me!

I'm like Snuffleupagus the way I bob and weave!

I'm the number one dunking on 33!

The letter of the day is U, as in U got served,

So why don't you go ahead and try and Follow That, Bird!
