This was the cringe-inducing message written on the back of the Rappin' Rockin' Barbie box:
"When you and your friends
are in a dancin' mood,
Hip-hop to the Boom Box beat
with a cool attitude.
Barbie says, 'Yo! Come on, guys,
and all you fly girls too.
Rap 'n rhyme 'cause now it's time
to show what you can do!'"
