A yodel rap duo has proved one of the biggest talking points of this year’s Eurovision Song Contest.
Romania put forward a track called Yodel It! performed by Ilinca and Alex in the hope of winning glory in Kiev and it certainly managed to capture the imagination of the audience.
Ilinca provided some impressive yodelling over the top of Alex Florea’s rapping for the unusual combination.
IF YODEL RAPPING DOESN'T WIN #EUROVISION IS A CORRUPT NONSENSE.

Celebrity fans were equally impressed by the act.

Some viewers began campaigning for people to vote Romania.
Yodel Rap – the single greatest musical mash-up of the 21st Century. Wind yer necks in and vote Romania. #ROU #Eurovision

But not everyone got the genre.
I stand by my assertion that Yodel Rap marks the end times. #Eurovision #esc2017

However, the track proved inspiring for others.
If anyone can recommend any up and coming yodel rap groups, I'd really appreciate it #Eurovision
