The Editors of The Emigre asked ChatGPT to write a review of Pride and Prejudice in the style of a Ludacris song. The results were… mixed.
Verse 1:
Listen up y'all, let me tell you 'bout a chick
Her name is Elizabeth, and she's hella slick
She lives in England, in the early 1800s
And she's got some suitors, but they're all too flirty
Chorus:
Pride and Prejudice, that's the name of the game
Lizzy's gotta find love, it ain't easy to tame
Her family's got drama, her friends are all crazy
But she ain't giving up, her heart's feeling hazy
Verse 2:
First up is Mr. Collins, he's a pompous nerd
Lizzy's like, "nah man, that's just absurd"
Then there's Mr. Wickham, he seems like a catch
But he's gotta secret, he's kind of a sketch
Chorus:
Pride and Prejudice, that's the name of the game
Lizzy's gotta find love, it ain't easy to tame
Her family's got drama, her friends are all crazy
But she ain't giving up, her heart's feeling hazy
Verse 3:
And now we gotta talk 'bout Mr. Darcy
He's rich, he's prideful, he's kinda bossy
At first Lizzy's like, "no way, he's too stuck up"
But then she starts to see, he's got some sweet stuff
Chorus:
Pride and Prejudice, that's the name of the game
Lizzy's gotta find love, it ain't easy to tame
Her family's got drama, her friends are all crazy
But she ain't giving up, her heart's feeling hazy
Verse 4:
So in the end, they all find their matches
Lizzy and Darcy, they'll make some great catches
Jane and Bingley, they'll live happily ever after
The rest of the fam, they'll find love, they ain't disasters
Chorus:
Pride and Prejudice, that's the name of the game
Lizzy's gotta find love, it ain't easy to tame
Her family's got drama, her friends are all crazy
But she ain't giving up, her heart's feeling hazy
Outro:
And that's the story of Pride and Prejudice
With some romance, some drama, and a whole lotta wit
If you haven't read it yet, you gotta give it a chance
'Cause this classic novel, it's straight up romance.
