Information on the rapper

Kim Jong-il (Korean: 김정일) was a North Korean politician who served as the Second Supreme Leader of North Korea from 1994 until his own death in 2011. According to Soviet records, he was born Yuri Irsenovich Kim on February 16, 1941, in Vyatskoye, Russian SFSR, Soviet Union as one of the sons of North Korea's first Supreme Leader Kim Il-sung and his first wife Kim Jong Suk. North Korean official biographies claim otherwise, asserting that he was born on 16 February 1942 in a secret military camp on Paektu Mountain while his father was fighting the Japanese occupation of Korea. He began his rise to power after his father passed away in 1994, and was granted complete control of the country, as well as the position of chairman of the National Defense Commission, which is declared as the highest office of the state. During his reign as leader of North Korea, he greatly limited the rights of his country, and he built greater tension between South Korea and the United States of America. Kim Jong-il's third son, Kim Jong-un, was promoted to a senior position in the ruling Workers' Party, and succeeded Kim Jong-il following his death on December 17, 2011. In 2012 the constitution was amended and Kim Jong-il was given the posthumous titles of Eternal General Secretary of the Workers' Party of Korea and Eternal Chairman of the National Defence Commission.

ERBoH Bio

I was born Yuri Irsenovich Kim and I was the Supreme Leader of the Democratic People's Republic of North Korea. I was the best, just ask anyone in North Korea, but nobody else. Everyone in North Korea thinks of me and my daddy as Gods and not just because we force them to in school! I was the coolest leader in the world. You could tell by my bouffant hairdo and women's sunglasses. I did not like people making fun of me, like those South Park douchebags! I tried very hard to have their movie banned because I was WONDERFUL! Nobody is allowed to think anything else! That's why I imprisoned American journalists Euna Lee and Laura Ling. Only people who think I am great are allowed in my country! I also kept my country on a closed cyber network. No outside internet for North Korea! We don't need outside knowledge of people saying I'm not handsome and smart and sexy! Recently, I died of a heart attack, or as the North Koreans said, I died of overwork dedicating my life to the people. Now, my son, Kim Jong-un, will rule North Korea with an iron fist and the people will be happy about it. HAPPY, you hear me?! Because we have no problems! What famine? Twenty-two million people didn't die from famine! One or two meals a day is plenty! We don't need outside help! We're perfect! Everyone here is perfect! That's all you need to know!

Lyrics

Verse 1:

The name's Kim Jong. I got a license to IL!

Make you swallow my rhymes like a steroids pill!

Your body looks like a spray tan banana,

With a walrus mustache and a wack bandana!

I'm coming at you like the Asian Rick Flair!

Bitch, I'll suplex you by your friggin' dick hair!

Your whole fam's a bunch of Barbies, dude!

You want beef? Eat this Korean BBQ!

Verse 2:

Beijing is in China, you blond asshole!

I'm a god among men; you're a suburban commando!

North Korea, bitch! Let me give you a tour!

By the way, your wife says my dick is bigger than yours!
