Plot[]
Principal Goodvibes after getting hit by Grim`s schyte attack
At the Endsville Elementary Carnival, Principal Goodvibes is giving a speech about saving to hippos, Mindy doing a school report for the school year book asks why is he so boring? He gives a few exaggerated examples explaining his non-boring life, making Mindy fall asleep because of his boring talk. Billy and Mandy made a game where they had to hit the target to dunk Grim in a water with eels named Dunk De Reapa. When Irwin is not able to dunk Grim, Tanya comes in and dunks him again and again, which makes Grim angry and he decides to destroy the ball, but the blast from his scythe accidentally hits Principal Goodvibes and the hippo next to him. This turns Principal Goodvibes into a rapper named Goodbling and the hippo into an anthropomorphic beatboxing hippo named H2O. Grim tells Billy and Mandy that the magic can only be reversed when he is challenged by a greater rapper.
The next day, Goodvibes turns the school upside down by cancelling all classes and making classes to make kids learn Hip Hop ettiequte, like Spray Can ettiequte, Boom Box Repairs, Chuck Jewelry Polishing and Pop and Lock appreciation, wearing a metal was compulsory and everyone challenge each other. Grim goes to complain to Goodbling about not having a Hip Hop History Class in school. In retaliation he insults Grim with a Yo Mama joke, making him cry.
In the cafeteria, Irwin starts showing off his Hip Hop dance, where he bumps into H2O and mistakenly calls him a cow. This causes Principal Goodvibes to make fun of his mom, when Tanya comes in and challenges Principal Goodvibes to a Yo Mama insult challenge. Having lost to Tanya, ultimately proving herself to be a much cooler gangsta rapper, Goodvibes returns to his normal self.

Trivia[]
- Goodbling’s outfit includes a pair of brass knuckles, the right hand reading “Love”, and the left hand reading “Hate”. This is a nod to the character Radio Raheem, from Spike Lee’s classic 1989 film, Do The Right Thing.
- Goodbling's first freestyle rap contains the lyrics "Yo, microphone check one two what is this" the first lyrics from the classic A Tribe Called Quest song "Buggin' Out".
- Irwin in one scene wears an outfit resembling MC Hammer and at one point dancing (in the style of him) to a sound a like version of his signature song "Can't Touch This".
- Some merchandise of The Powerpuff Girls can be seen alongside Goodvibes's "not boring" lifestyle.
- One of the graffiti's spay painted on Endsville Elementary School is "Chaka Khan" a legendary funk singer.
- The video game that Principle Goodvibes is playing on his computer is a parody of the popular MMORPG World of Warcraft.
- When Mandy said that Goodbling got rid of the normal classes, he replaced them with spray can with spray paint class, boom box repair class, junk jewelry polishing class, and pop and lock appreciation class, but Grim said that Goodbling forgot Hip Hop history class.
