Gag name

A gag name is a false name used to elicit humour through its simultaneous resemblance to a real name on the one hand, and to a term or phrase that is funny, strange, or vulgar on the other hand. The source of the humour is the pun and double entendre; frequently, the humour arises when an unknowing victim is induced to use the name without realising the joke. Urban legend holds that such a prank is often played on substitute teachers or others who must read a roll, for whom pranksters will switch the roll with one containing such names.

Some names that would be considered gag names have been adopted as stage names by performers, often in the adult entertainment industry.

Examples in reality

In the mid-1970s Jim Davidson and John Elmo frequently called the Tube Bar, a tavern owned by Louis "Red" Deutsch, asking for names such as "Ben Dover", "Mike Hunt", "Peter Phile", "Phil Lacio", "Moe Lester", "Stu Peid" and "Al Coholic", recording and sharing Deutsch's responses. These Tube Bar prank calls were the inspiration for Bart Simpson's prank calls to Moe's Tavern in The Simpsons.

The Mouse and the Mask

The Mouse and the Mask is a collaboration album by Danger Mouse and MF Doom under the name Danger Doom, released on October 11, 2005 by punk label Epitaph Records in the United States, marking it the third hip hop release for the label. It was also released by Lex Records in the UK on October 17, 2005, with different cover art.

Concept and History

The album is composed almost entirely of raps by MF DOOM, performed over beats created by Danger Mouse sampling music from various television shows airing on Cartoon Network's programming block Adult Swim. The album was heavily promoted by the network prior to its release.

"Sofa King" was released as a 12-inch single on November 4, 2005 and was followed by "Old School" on July 10, 2006. A video for "A.T.H.F." has also been made.

Comedian Dave Chappelle created an iTunes Celebrity Playlist and selected the Danger Doom track "Mince Meat" for his Block Party Picks. He stated, "Two very consistently good artists collaborate to make my head nod. Doom, Mouse - Thank You. Wherever you are, nice album." MF DOOM mentions Chappelle in the song "Peoples, Places, and Things" (called "Name Dropping" on his CD "Live from Planet X"). Doom says "Rap cats at brave as hell/Get on the mic and turn 'Gangsta!' on some 'yeah, see' like Dave Chappelle." in reference to a bit Chappelle performed in his stand up "Killin' Them Softly".

Moby

Richard Melville Hall (born September 11, 1965), better known by his stage name Moby, is an American singer-songwriter, musician, DJ and photographer. He is well known for his electronic music, vegan lifestyle, and support of animal rights. Moby has sold over 20 million albums worldwide.AllMusic considers him "one of the most important dance music figures of the early 1990s, helping bring the music to a mainstream audience both in the UK and in America".

Moby gained attention in the early 1990s with his electronic dance music work, which experimented in the techno and breakbeat hardcore genres. With his fifth studio album, the electronica and house music-influenced Play, he gained international success. Originally released in mid-1999, the album sold 6,000 copies in its first week, and it re-entered the charts in early 2000 and became an unexpected hit, producing eight singles and selling over 10 million copies worldwide. Moby followed the album in 2002 with 18, which was also successful, selling over 5 million copies worldwide and receiving mostly positive reviews, though some criticized it for being too similar to Play.

Sofa King

by Danger Doom

Sofa King

by: Danger Doom

Please, read from sheets
I am, I am
Sofa King
Sofa King
Scared of a bunch of water, then get out the rain
Order a rapper for lunch, and spit out the chain
Then, kick a lungee off the tip of his timbo
And trick a honey dip, into a game of strip limbo
Odd, he couldn't find no remorse
A wink is as good as a nod to a blind horse
Of course, his technique was from a divine source
Never new the price of ice or what swine cost
One guy tried to bite the heat
That's when he discovered the other, other white meat
Oh, the one, they hate so well
He sure keeps it psycho, like the old Bates motel
They came to ask him for, at least, some new tracks
But only got confronted by the beast with two backs
Knock, Mouse is a made man
Villain, laid it down, like the best laid plan
Belle, the cat, who the hell is that, near the middle?
Got y'all but it's not all beer and Skittles
Prepare the vittles, got riddles and spittles
Crystal clear to the jock or the tittle
Sssst, it's hot, off the griddle
Came to take the cake, whether it's a lot or a little
Ka-boom, doom is nervous large
You could tell by his blooming room service charge
Dark and tall to boot
The only thing was wrong was, he was bald as a Klute
Used to rent a van from Peter Pan, the red and tan
And keep the human foot for his dead man's hand
This was when the mask was brand-spankin' new
Before it got rusted, from drankin' all the brew
Stankin' too, pew
Kept all his earnings in the bank and his shoe
Spat what he knew, energy for true
To all fake rappers, twenty-three skidoo
Excuse you, any room in the class front?
For a blast of the blunt, shroomin' since last month
Doom a human in the mask, born to stunt
Danger zoomin' past, mad, fast on the hunt
Keep your streets, we got the city neatly conquered
Discretely, with the CD, 'til they be completely bunkered
The fans demanded it, handled it, swallow it
His own brand of shit, if only he could bottle it
Hmm, nah, she could get messy
The feds tried to torture him for the secret recipe
He said, "It's no use, I only know half
No speaka de English, I only do the math"
Bzzt, felt no pain
His brain was saturated with cocaine and Rogaine
He said, "Try scan, no thing, three-card dead
Fly man, go for bling, he got bled
I jam over sting, see spots red
I am Sofa King, we Todd, Ed"
We, Todd, Ed
Now repeat all, very fast, please
I am, Sofa King
Faster
I am Sofa King
No, no, not so fast, loses meaning
I am so fucking retarded
