If you listen closely to both, you’ll notice the Yooka-Laylee Rap shares the identical rhythm of the Donkey Kong Rap – and notably, it shares the same aesthetics, rhyme flow, and beat as well. Both go into detail about who’s on the cover of the box and why they matter, like most rap songs do. 

On top of that, both rap tracks also go into detail about specific character’s and their different abilities. 

Developed by Playtonic Games, which is made up of many of the same creative minds that brought Donkey Kong and Banjo-Kazooie to life in the 1990s, Yooka-Laylee is set to release on April 11. Stay tuned to GameSkinny for news, guides, and updates on Playtonic’s newest platform.
