Today's Sign That The Appocalypse Is Upon Us- Ben Shapiro Has The #1 Rap Song On ITunes Right Now

TMZ - Ben Shapiro is diving headfirst into the rap game -- he's got a new single and an accompanying music video, and it's doing numbers ... this despite some poor reactions.

The famous conservative talk show host and editor of The Daily Wire -- who's known for his skill on a mic, but not in the MC capacity -- was featured on wrestler-turned-rapper Tom MacDonald's new single ... supplying the guest verse with bars!

Their track together is called "Facts" ... and Ben's 16 takes aim at actual rappers in the game, like Nicki Minaj, Cardi B and Megan Thee Stallion ... among others. He's wearing a hoodie in this thing as he raps about making money off compound interest, all while his haters live with their parents. Yeah, it's classic Shapiro ... dude loves to flex his intellect.

You know what word doesn't get used enough anymore? Despite being an excellent term? 

Dweeb.

Ben Shapiro is the biggest dweeb in the game. 

This is the nail in the coffin that rap music is officially a wrap now. Pun intended but not intended. 

Ben Shapiro, and this wrestler-turned-rapper guy Tom MacDonald guy (shout out to the albino twins from The Matrix), just ended it as a genre altogether. 

This "song" is whatever. If I'm being 100% honest, gun-to-my-head, it's not the worst thing I've ever heard. The hook is ok, and the beat is actually pretty decent. But telling us you won't promote stripper poles? That's as non-rap as it gets. 

To make matters even worse, Nicki Minaj congratulated him on the track.

p.s. - the sad thing about Shapiro is that it's textbook "not the message, but the delivery" thing with him. He sometimes makes great points and has pretty good takes, but the way he comes off- smug as fuck and condescending, it makes agreeing with him impossible.
