I know a kid who wrote submitted “L-L-L Life of the Mind” lyrics to the tune of Bad to the Bone for his why Chicago essay. It worked for him. But this particular kid enjoyed writing humorous poems and song lyrics, did it a lot, and pulled it off very well. So if writing rap is something you do, and do well–this is a great opportunity to show that side of your personality in the app. If not, I think you want to avoid being “creative” just for the sake of being creative and risking coming across as trying too hard.
