Rockin' Funnies: It's All About the Pentiums (1999)

3 years after he'd skewered Coolio's "Gangster's Paradise" (from "Dangerous Minds") with "Amish Paradise", "Weird" Al Yankovic decided to give hip-hop another try, this time taking on Sean "Diddy" Combs' "All About the Benjamins", which was released a year or two earlier, by releasing "It's All About the Pentiums", taking a swipe at the then-burgeoning information super-highway. Al, hot babes, and special guest star Drew Carey (like, you were expecting maybe Tom Arnold?). Enough said.
