But while googling around to back it up, I also found this. I'll buy that, and have modified my original post accordingly. I think the "DJ Jimmy Ray & Jay" song dates to the mid-90s, and the Mad Music Archive attributes it to Manic Larry Baker in the late 80s.) I concur with the guy who posted here about the difference between authoring and performing a song.
(EDIT : Wikipedia page no longer refers to it.
As with the erroneous attributions of Chapin's song to Stevens, this parody has been attributed incorrectly to "Weird Al" Yankovic - a source of irritation to Yankovic, who eschews the use of racist humor.
2.Īccording to Wikipedia, DJs Jimmy Ray & Jay of WGH-FM Eagle 97.3 (Norfolk, VA) wrote performed a parody of the song, entitled " Cat's in the Kettle" on their second release Ill-Eagles II: Living in the House of Hope, which plays with the stereotype that Chinese restaurants in America use cat meat to pad out their food. (Maybe the same songwriter, but recorded under a different name by a couple of US DJs?) under the name of the Ill-Eagles, it appears as Track 5 of their Solid Mold, Vol. I think the late Jim Taylor of Sydney claimed to have written it.Ĭlose.
