Wah Gwan Delilah – Snowd4y ft. Drake
Social Media Star Snowd4y Drops Hilarious Toronto Parody with Drake
June 2024 saw Canadian social media star Snowd4y take the internet by storm with “Wah Gwan Delilah,” a comedic remix/parody of the classic 2005 hit “Hey There Delilah” by Plain White T’s.
This infectious track isn’t just a catchy tune – it’s a hilarious love letter (well, sort of) to Toronto culture, dripping with local slang and references guaranteed to tickle any Torontonian’s funny bone.
The song cleverly flips the script on the original’s sweet serenade. Snowd4y croons (or rather raps) in a hilariously exaggerated Toronto patois, complete with lines like “Wah gwan, Delilah, what’s it like in Toronto City?”
Separated by distance (and maybe a lack of commitment), Snowd4y laments his situation while showering compliments on a distant Delilah. Things get even funnier with the arrival of Drake, the undisputed king of Toronto hip-hop. His guest verse injects his signature wit, playfully poking fun at himself and referencing classic Toronto slang like “cheesed” and “bare traffic.”
Snowd4y’s lyrics cleverly weave in references to Toronto life,dropping lines about spending that sweet CERB (Canadian Emergency Response Benefit) and name-checking local banks like TD and RBC.
It’s a lighthearted and clever satire of Toronto culture, perfectly capturing the city’s unique vibe. With Drake lending his star power to this viral parody, Snowd4y has cemented himself as a rising comedic talent to watch. So,crank up the volume, embrace your inner Torontonian, and get ready to laugh out loud with “Wah Gwan Delilah.”
Quotable Lyrics:
Wah gwan, Delilah? Know I’m late ’cause there’s bare traffic
I just show my dog your ‘Gram
He said he knows a man that slapped it, I’m so cheesed
Your “mademoiselle” nights are geeked, I’m bent lowkey
