A Charlie Brown Christmas, Christmas cocktails, Christmas mass, Christmas sweaters (the uglier the better!), Christmas lights, Christmas crafts (and fails!), and so forth. Of course, music is no exception to the all-Christmas-everything rule, but the juxtaposition of the warm, family feeling of the Christmas season and the "freshness" of rap (to borrow some early '90s slang for a moment) means that Christmas raps must also have some camp value or inherent irony. It's like rapping about Gerber's baby food or Snow White. Here are fifteen funny Christmas rap videos that take full advantage of the natural absurdity of mixing rap with Christmas. Scrooge vs The Grinch. Epic Rap Battles of Christmas It's an epic battle of Christmas stereotypes! On one side we've got those two notoriously anti-Christmas meanies, Scrooge and The Grinch.

Funny Rap by Santa and the Family According to the YouTuber who uploaded this video, it's a remake of the Christmas Rap the movie "Beat Street." Mother Nature Holiday Rap Canadians as a whole are not known for their rapping skills, despite the proximity of the nation to Detroit and the ascendant Ontarian rapper Shad. I mean, try to imagine Geddy Lee rapping. I'm imagining it right now and it's hysterical. But that disadvantage doesn't stop these two from expressing their frustration with Canada's winter weather via rap. Dangerously catchy. I Rock Onesies This song isn't really about Christmas, but there is a Christmas tree in the video. And it's amazing. So here is a tribute to the coolest, most gangsta variety of pajamas which does not mention Christmas in the lyrics. Deal with it.

This funny, well-edited, and bizarre video is almost like a lost SNL Digital Short. One of the guys even kind of looks like Andy Samberg. All I Want For Christmas Words fail me, so I'll just throw a few out: "Eclectic." "Incomprehensible." "Amazing." "Inexplicable." "Fat Guy."
