The proverbial new kid on the block, or rather the new kid in the caravan park, rapper Jack Parow answered a few questions about his name and claim to fame.

If you weren’t a rapper what would you be?

A bodybuilder with the self-tan… And I would just be flexing.

How did the name Jack Parow originate?

We were really drunk and were watching Pirates of the Caribbean and I said: “Jack Sparrow the pirate of the Caribbean I’m Jack Parow, pirate of the caravan park.” It just stuck.

If you could be any animal what would you be?

I like watching the National Geographic channel and there were these rats; the biggest rodents like ever. They’re cool; I would like to be them.

What does Jack Parow like doing in his spare time?

Drinking coffee, smoking cigarettes and playing games.
