I know that track is called Off parole, the artist is Four tay(i think)

one.

[eef_haf]

RAPPIN-4-TAY! I knew there are old school BOP TV heads around here. Naturelle from your tapes can you remind me which music shows or channel they were syndicating for Music TV? I remember the hiphop one had this guy called Vee?

Those Friday afternoon Kung-fu flicks were also crazy. Damn, I miss the old South Africa. ha ha.

::: Everyone has seen this one. Basic but funny at the same time.
Plot: Sensei Tyson is training Canibus to fight LL; "running on soft sand." On judgement day LL suprisingly doesnt show up and Bis automatically wins and gets to keep the mic(tatoo).

I dig the beat on this one.



---question time!:
1. Why didnt Canibus´ career blow up?

[ootz]

clef made half the beats dope n the other half wack 4 can-i-bus.

ll destroyed cani in his reply talkin bout his momma in canada trickin for crill.

ll n clef plottin to destroy cani from the beginning.

cani attempts to be jiggy soundin real wack

[eef_haf]

lol

actually I dont know the answer myself so I guess all of those are Right!

The hype he had before that album was incredible. Everyone I met was telling me about canibus or reciting his latest qoutables. And then there was Beast From the East after that he could not live up to that hype. Expectations were too high!

::: STETSASONIC! Taking things back to the old school. As you know the release of Mandela was big news across the world and guess what? Stet wasnt going to be left behind and got with the program: "Free, Free, Free South Africa!"
Scenes from southern Africa are displayed throughout the video.

Wasnt a hiphop head when this dropped but it was cool discovering it.

Dont mess with Savimbi...

::: "Shame on a nigga!" Those eternal words, first heard on the 36 tape, came from a drunk sounding rapper then only known as Ol Dirty Bastard. A "+Bastard+ because there is no father to his style. But why was he +Dirty+? Well, enter the Brooklyn Zu! video (original version). This video went on to prove just how dirty Russell Jones could get. Set in the pissy hallways of some projects building, so pissy you can smell the urine through your screen, dirty...

Flanked by the core Wu members it gave the viewer a chance to be introduced into the crazy world of ODB while he drops his "science" *cough, cough* -the ODB dropping science!?

Yes, dropping it "like girls drop babies!":-]

Point blank this guy was hilarious. And the thing that made it worse was that he was dead serious while he spit "his science" on the mic.

Sadly he never got to fulfill the +Old+ part.

R.i.p to ODB. He will be missed.



---question time:

Title of ODB´s debut?

[deePea]

ICE CREAM!!!!!

::: When I was a kid I had this great idea of sampling an ice cream truck and making a dope rap song out of it. It had never been done before, it was going to be fresh!
Imagine my dissapointment when I heard first this joint off Raewkwons debut. Someone had beaten me to it and it was Bobby. I was bugging: He stole my idea! Ha HA

But the Wu-Gambinos´s Ice Cream truck delivered unique flavors. Very different to the one you might see in your neighbourhood. Flavor ya´ll.

All in all a very funny video. Looks like the whole projects came out for that one.

Lol at Shyheim the rugged child, what happened to him?

::: This is just a second version of Brookyln Zu since the first was too Dirty for TV. But you know what? The second part is just as dirty!
This time there is a femme fatale in the video and there´s supposed to be a storyline behind it all.

storyline?? Well basically DirtDog sets Himself up and then snuffs everybody. :-o

ha ha, they threw the dude selling Fireworks into thr boot and ignited them.

grimy.



---question time:

Which Wu producer designed the now famous Wu-Tang logo?
