Need for Han Dynasty-themed rap track finally fulfilled

In a bit of free advertising that couldn't be more up the outspoken Han Chiang's alley, local musician Brad Podray has penned a catchy-ass track chronicling his obsession with the popular local mini-chain of fiery Sichuan restaurants. Love the hook. You can stream and download the song right on Podray's site, as well as peep a full transcription of the lyrics (especially fond of the part labeling Chiang as "a Chinese Gandalf making spells out of chili oil"). Quick excerpt:

Han Dynasty is at the top of the food chain
its the wrong place for sesame chicken and lo mein
Get that shrimp dry pepper style flash fry
This is where weak taste buds go to die
I love the dan dan noodles and spicy cucumber
Spice level 10 is the magic number
Come here because you love the heat
Its like an explosion, but the kind you can eat.
