Trudgemank

{rapping} Peacey P back on the mic again
Getting paid to rhyme with Scandinavians
Trudging through the mank so it's easy to find me
Mixing rap and heavy metal, like the early nineties.

{talking} '91 or '93. Anthrax and P.E.

I got the Crample-O style and the Crample-O flow
Got these metal-heads all up in my "STU G.O."
And get your product phat for ya

TARANCHULA:
Get your product phat!!

BOTH:
AHHHHHHH!

PEACEY P:
I'll say it once again, just in case'd you missed it,
Clean the gravy out your ears cause your head is a biscuit.
Y'all biscuit-heads!

That's what happens when you're down with the trudgemank!

TARANCHULA:

PEACEY P:

BOTH:

PEACEY P: {talking} Maybe some of y'all fellas can maybe think about taking a shower or somethin' next time before ya come up in here. Stank!

{End video. Cut to The Cheat's Computer Room, where The Cheat is alone at his computer.}

THE CHEAT: {looks around, expectant The Cheat noises} {leans down, sighs sadly} {nudges up, expectant The Cheat noise} {leans down again, takes out a pizza trophy and places it on the desk} {celebratory The Cheat noises} {claps hands}

[edit] Trivia

Peacey P's nightcap reads "Slee P".
The bubbles (after the meat slithering across the floor) have the Taranchula logo on them as part of the reflected light pattern.
The Cheat's trophy reads "PIZZA TROPHY FOR THE CHEAT".
The YouTube description for this toon is "The Cheat makes a video for Taranchula featuring Peacey P."

[edit] Inside References

The pizza trophy that Strong Bad said that he would give to The Cheat for his crazy cartoon in the Strong Bad Email of the same name appears in this music video at the end.
The Cheat has used JPEGs in this animation, which he had previously done in New Boots.
The run-down, industrial-like environment as well as the screw and the slab of meat at the beginning of the music video is a reference to Taranchula's previously seen music video: "The Decoupage", seen in death metal.
As with previous songs featuring Peacey P, this song is produced by Crample-O Stow Records. "Crample-O" appears in the lyrics and on the side of Peacey P's yacht.
Peacey P has blood on his coat during a segment, and mentions showering and "stank".

[edit] Real-World References

Peacey P refers to Anthrax and "P.E.", who collaborated on the track "Bring the Noise" in 1991, an early teaming of heavy metal and rap.
"Trudgment Night Soundtrack" is a reference to the soundtrack from the 1993 movie Judgment Night which featured pairings of rock and rap artists.
In parts, Peacey P wears a partially covered shirt which appears to read A Tribe Called Quest, a hip-hop group popular in the early '90s.
The lines "I'll say it once again, just in case'd you missed it / Clean the gravy out your ears cause your head is a biscuit" may be a reference to the line "I sang on 'Doowhutchyalike', and if ya missed it / I'm the one who said, 'Just grab 'em in the biscuits!'" from "The Humpty Dance" by Digital Underground.
In the spirit of the collaboration with Taranchula, Peacey P's boat exhibits "CRAMPLE-O" written as "Crample-Ø". Several Scandinavian languages use the Ø letter in their alphabets.
The navy and orange "34" jersey that Peacey P wears is similar to a Walter Payton jersey. Wearing throwback jerseys continues to be a popular element of hip hop fashion.
The loading screen simply says "Load", which may be a reference to the Metallica album of the same name.
The line "Down with the Trudgemank" may be a reference to the song "Down with the Sickness" by Disturbed.
- Due to the earlier mention of Public Enemy, it may also be a reference to the line "Down with the P.E." from the song "Burn Hollywood Burn", which was previously parodied in Homestarloween Party.
The saw blade seen in the video may be a reference to the "buzzsaw guitar sound" pioneered by Swedish death metal bands such as Entombed.

[edit] Fast Forward

The song was later referenced in an Easter egg for Cheat Commandos: Two Part Episode: Part 2, with "Fudgeclank" substituted for "Trudgemank".
