13 March 2006

Hey, somebody was listening. So yeah, I just got done listening to my own playlist, which I broadcast for one lucky fan (?).[More:] I made changes as I was going through, though, so I think I've finally arrived at a finished version. And this time, I don't see anyone with dibs yet for this evening, so I'd like to do my Brief History of Rhyme/Hip-Hop Hooray playlist all the way through tonight, say between 5:30-10PM.
P.S. - If anyone has a copy of "Hip Hop Hooray" that you can YSI, I'd greatly appreciate it. Or any other hip-hop tracks. My collection is seriously lacking.

THIS IS NOW BECOME THE YSI HIP HOP TRACKS THREAD! Sugarhill, Grandmaster Flash, Lords of the Underground, EPMD, Ice Cube, Onyx, Coolio, Wu-Tang; whatever you got, YSI it! I'm not going to fuck with this playlist too much, and it's already four and one quarter hours long, but I will love you forever. (Especially every single one of you who YSIs hip hop hooray).

Is Hey Ya on there? I have me a special weakness for that song. Its one of my guilty pleasures.

I was listening! And I don't have hip hop hooray, but I still want that MC Hawking (Crazy as Fuck, I think?), and the Lordz of Brooklyn one with the title about five miles long! *bats eyelashes*

Speaking of hip-hop, if you want to know more about it than you can ever hope to know, just sit in on a music conversation between the Wino, jonmc and the new famousjoe. I got quite the education a week or two ago.

Pharoahe Monch - Simon Says

And, when it comes to 'Sucker MCs' covers, the one you really want is the Wu-Tang version from In Tha Beginning... There Was Rap (minor props to Tupac for that 'Two years ago, a friend of mine/ Told me Alize and Cristal blows your mind' line, though).

(Also, speaking of OPP parodies, there's also the Yo!-approved 'MTV' one.)

luna moth, I cannot find my copy of the file, but here's a copy online of the (illicit) Charlie Brown version of the song. I was gonna ysi it, but darn if I can find it.

OMG!! I love that video. I think I posted it as a comment in another thread here once...maybe a long time ago.

Eide, you are quickly becoming one of my favourite people here! :) (taz too....she seems pretty cool)

Ok, so I'm home, and provided the storms don't knock my cable out anytime soon, I should be on air in a few minutes.

Chapter One. He adored New York City. He idolized it all out of proportion. || Bunny love? What's not to love? (NSFW/flash/sound)
