Corey Feldman declares himself 'the best rapper ever' in his new video clip, creatively titled 'DUH!'
- which stands for Done Under Halo, naturally.

The actor-turned-singer has once again set the internet ablaze as he hilariously attempts to convince everyone he's Michael Jackson reincarnate.

Flanked by his motley crew of 'angels' - who are dressed in silver sparkly lingerie, suspenders and stockings, with handmade halos and wings attached for added authenticity - the 42-year-old former child star gyrates embarrassingly in a style meant to resemble that of his old friend and idol.

Well they do say that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.

The almost five-minute video begins with 'abused husband' Corey lounging by his pool alongside comedic actress Tanna Frederick in the role of his long-suffering 'jealous wife'.

When three of his angels arrive, he's quick to bail to head to 'the studio' with his harem, where it's clear they're working on some top-quality music.

In an apparent homage to '50s sitcom I Love Lucy, Tanna turns on the TV and she and the singer appear in decidedly unfunny black and white skit set in a kitchen.

Hoping for her big break? The almost five-minute clip features 'Corey's Angels' - including 'Maingel' Courtney Ann, who prances around in her underwear and repeats the word 'Duh' over and over in her upgraded role as backing singer

He's Bad... I mean REALLY bad! The 42-year-old dons a Michael Jackson-esque black and gold ensemble as he attempts - incredibly poorly - to copy his late friend and idol's signature moves

He then mimics the late King Of Pop during both his Bad days - complete with black and gold outfit and signature crotch-grabbing moves - and Smooth Criminal, donning a striped suit and fedora.

He even also appears to pull some zombie-like Thriller moves, though the end result looks more like he's having a seizure.

Adding to the weirdness of it all is the voice he puts on, which is clearly nothing like his real singing voice would actually sound.

In a statement released to Fishwrapper, Corey insists the video is a satire - though it's obvious to anyone who's had the pleasure of watching it that there's a heavy dose of reality thrown in there.

It's I Love Corey! The pair then appear in a decidedly unfunny black and white skit set in a kitchen, with a statement clarifying, 'The video lampoons not only Feldman himself, but also cleverly blends a spoof of reality television and 50s sitcoms, with an homage to "I Love Lucy"'

He actually clearly believes he's on par with Michael Jackson. 

'The “Ascension Millennium” video was the actor/singer’s first ever music video. “DUH!” marks only the 2nd music video the singer has ever released,' the statement reads.

'The new video is a satirical spin on television through the times. The video lampoons not only Feldman himself, but also cleverly blends a spoof of reality television and 50s sitcoms, with an homage to “I Love Lucy.” The video is directed by Corey’s comedic costar, Tanna Frederick, who recently worked alongside of him in his soon-to-be-released film “The M Word,” which hits theaters April 20th.

'In the video, Tanna stars as Corey's wife. Alongside Tanna in the "DUH!" video, "Corey's Angels" are featured, including cameos from Kaya Jones, reality star Daisy DeLaHoya, and of course Corey's "Maingel," Angel Courtney Anne.'

Un-Smooth Criminal! Despite his best attempts, the former child star in nowhere near as talented as MJ

A full-length album, titled Angelic 2 The Core, is due for release in May, reportedly featuring the likes of Fred Durst, from Limp Bizkit.

Also said to be lending his vocals is Brandon Howard, who in a bizarre twist is the 31-year-old up-and-coming singer who claims to be Michael Jackson's biological son.

While there are too many classic lines to mention in the single, one that sums up the whole debacle of a song is: 'I forgot my line but I'm gonna remember in a minute 'cause I'm the best rapper ever.'

It should also be noted that Corey's angels have been upgraded in this video and they can now proudly add 'backing singer' to their CVs as they repeat the word 'Duh' over and over.

Twerk it, girl! What would a music video be without a little Miley Cyrus-esque twerking!

Was that good for you? The video ends with Corey making it up to his long-suffering wife as he lays waiting for her on their bed, which is covered with red rose petals

'Reincarnate' is a verb, not a noun. Your reporter means either 'Michael Jackson incarnate' or 'Michael Jackson reincarnated.'

He's exactly the same age as my 42 year old husband and without being rude you shouldn't be starting out as a rapper in your middle age. Even Eminem has toned it down

This is really kind of awful and I say that as someone who has been really find of him. But, as bad as this is, it's still better than Kim and Kanye's video. So, there's that.

I think its absolutely disgusting the amount of hate this man has to endure. Ive had the pleasure of talking to him on a few occasions and hes one of the nicest people i know. The awful things people say to him are more a testament to your personality than his, and i dont understand why people feel the need. Hes doing his thing and hes not hurting anybody. People who go out of their way to make people feel bad about themselves or their achievments are clearly jealous. What you would give to have a bunch of beautiful girls around you all the time. Grow up
