"PaRappa the Rapper 2" is a PlayStation 2 rhythm video game and the sequel to "PaRappa the Rapper". Though the game boasts a number of new gameplay elements, it was not as well-received critically and failed to garner similar sales as its predecessor.

Plot

The story line of "PaRappa the Rapper 2" centers on PaRappa, a young puppy, and his continuing adventures in overcoming his obstacles through Hip hop music. PaRappa has recently won a lifetime supply of noodles and has grown tired of eating them. PaRappa's girlfriend, Sunny Funny, offers to make him dinner one evening and he gladly accepts. However, when she serves him noodles, PaRappa throws a tantrum, leaving Sunny Funny to question his maturity. To prove to Sunny Funny that he is not immature, PaRappa seeks to complete a number of tasks, such as getting a job at a Beard Burger restaurant or working out to Chop Chop Master Onion's romantic fitness television program.

The plot continues to become more bizarre as the story ensues and many odd situations arise in which PaRappa must keep cool to solve the problem. He and his friends get shrunk by his father's invention, so he helps coach them back to normal size with the help of Guru Ant. PaRappa gets drafted into the army and must complete a military boot camp training course with Instructor Moosesha. He becomes an amateur barber after customers are being given afros by a schizophrenic hairstylist.

While PaRappa completes his tasks, it is slowly revealed that all of the food in town is being turned into noodles by a military dictator. PaRappa confronts the inconsiderate Colonel Noodles by beating an 8-bit video game called Food Court and finally reasoning with Colonel Noodles at his secret lair. The game ends with a final party with returning hip-hop master MC King Kong Mushi.

*Parappa Papa's Pastime is Perfected: The Food Court video game switches to normal Parappa style graphics, and PaRappa throws sweets and cakes at the mentors.

*Noodles are the flow, Noodles are the groove: It is time for Colonel Noodles to brush his teeth and he allows PaRappa to keep singing by himself.

*Final Party!: MC King Kong Mushi tells everyone to look at PaRappa and how he has become a man, as PaRappa floats to the ceiling tied to a balloon. At the end of the song, PaRappa gets an extended 'Say Ho!' session.

These alterations do not appear in either the UK or Japanese versions.
