School Principal Remakes MC Hammer’s “U Can’t Touch This” to Bring Coronavirus Awareness to His Students (2020)
August 2020.
I approve.
An Alabama high school principal’s effort to prepare students for returning to school amid COVID-19 restrictions has gone viral, after he created a parody of MC Hammer’s “You Can’t Touch This” to explain the new rules while declaring: “It’s the CDC, not me!”
What are the details?
Dr. Quentin Lee, the principal of Childersburg High School, dropped the video on his YouTube channel last week, where it has already amassed more than 5.2 million views. Lee wrote the lyrics himself, conveying his message while mimicking the ’90s rapper’s iconic moves.
The clip shows him enforcing social distancing and sanitation guidelines in jest, preparing students for what is to come as Alabama schools start reopening this week. Childersburg is slated for return later this month.
