Hammertime with skateboards instead of puffy pants.
Parents need to know that this music video uses a cover of an M.C. Hammer rap as a vehicle for showcasing the stars of the new Disney XD series Zeke & Luther. The network and the series are both geared toward young boys, so it's no surprise that the video would focus on skateboarding. The dance moves are tame and the skateboarding tricks aren't the death-defying type. Most of the lyrics have remained the same and Hammer's old warning that you won't be able to touch his talents remains intact, translated into extreme sport sensibilities. Although the premise for the video is about a bunch of regular neighborhood kids having fun, the Disney characters and their team of back-up dancers all sport the latest in retro '80s fashions, appearing slim and attractive. The fun dance party scene will undoubtedly help to promote the television series as a hip and exciting new show.
