Paul McCartney Has Recorded A Rap Asking People To Go Vegetarian And Twitter Is A Bit Confused
Certainly one way to get people talking about your campaign.
So Paul McCartney has recorded this "rap" calling on people to go vegetarian once a week.
View this video on YouTube
The plea is part of the Meat Free Monday campaign aimed at reducing global emissions by cutting down the amount of meat people consume.

While 800,000 people had signed up to the pledge by the end of the weekend, some on Twitter were slightly disturbed by McCartney's rapping (although we're not sure if it can even be called that), complete with what appears to be a fake Jamaican accent.
although i heartily endorse meat-free mondays, i denounce Paul McCartney rapping

This is quite high up on my list of things that will not, in any way, impact on the amount of meat people consume http://t.co/s1w9IA6epZ

Paul McCartney, adopting an 'ethnic' accent to rap about vegetarianism. Why would you want to chew your fist? https://t.co/J9nyD8zBfp
