To commemorate the 40th anniversary of his moon walk in 1969, Buzz Aldrin decided to do something a white man of his age hasn’t done before – rap. Teaming up with Snoop Dogg, Talib Kweli, and a series of back-up singers, the 79 year old astronaut laid down the rhymes for the track Rocket Experience. Check it out below.
A portion of the proceeds from song sales will go to the charities that Aldrin supports – the National Space Society, the Planetary Society, and the Astronaut Scholarship Foundation.
