This 'Black Harry Potter' rap is going viral because, well, just watch it

In the six+ years since the final Harry Potter film was released, there's been no shortage of songs, parodies and skits made about J.K. Rowling's magical franchise.

But there's been nothing quite like this.

"Black Magic (Black Harry Potter)" is a rap by Belgian artist Yung Mavu. The video was shared on YouTube around a week ago, but it's recently shot up to over 2 million views.

Fair warning: it's probably best to to watch this one with headphones on.
