New rapper name
I think this is the best name. We need to have more funny community names.
It might be better as a display name than a community name. I only say that because as much as I like funny community names, they can unintentionally reduce and obfuscate community's visibility and purpose to newcomers.
If one wants it to be easily found, arguably the best community names may be either shorts or clips, followed possibly by shortvids. The display name however can be as playful as one might want, as I think frontends/apps rely on the community name when searching over the display name.
Now for the worst name, in either respect, you might make it microvlogmemes, or microvlogs, neither of which I think I've ever seen or heard anyone use anywhere. I can't even remember the last time I heard or read anyone else mention a vlog, so yeah, may be technically accurate but awful otherwise.
