    Usher rips The Simpsons?

    I got sent this today on Facebook. Its a video showing similarities between OMG and Homer singing in the episode 'Dude, Where's My Ranch? I' m not a fan of Usher, but I think it is probably a coincidence. But you can make up your own mind.

    The timing of it is correct but the pitch is way off. I think it's just a coincidence.

    It's too broad of a connection to even be considered a coincidence. They both wear a white shirt and blue jeans as well. Hmm...

    Homer's version is better, melody and lyrics. And singing.

    "Honey got a booty like pow pow pow"...?

    Also, Usher is late on the pows. D+

    Is this a joke?

    I can't believe that this is an actual article. I agree with everything that has been said. This is far too big of a stretch to, like lionelhutz123 said, call it a coincidence. Like Zombies said, the pitch is also way off, so they don't even sound the same. Besides, like Brody said, The Simpsons didn't start ryming now with how.
    You can do anything if you put your mind to it.

    Everything happens for a reason.

    Just be yourself. Everyone else is already taken.

    Don't worry about the world ending today. It's already tomorrow in Australia.

    I can somehow fathom a S23 episode somehow based around this...

    "Beat the Rap Out of You"
    Homer learns in his blinding, strangling rage that when he chokes Bart and tries to sing, he can 'freestyle'. Instead of a scratch sound effect, he decides to 'rap' using Bart's 'ackkk' when he's strangled and Lisa breaks in with a funky sax solo!

    Well, ya'know if you stay positive and forget about trivial things like "proper characterization," "Satire," and "emotional depth" watching new Simpsons episodes can be a seemingly enjoyable lie.

    Obviously the person who made the "connection" doesn't know about musical pitch or rhythm. It's all right, though, I know a lot of tone deaf people.

    hardly a coincidence. I didn't know, as Brodie said, that The Simpsons were the first to realize how rhymes with now.
