   Can any of you normal hip hop heads help me? Im looking for an old song.. I don’t know the rapper/producer. I do know it was a 90’s joint..

   It had music video too, it starts out this cat going in a bodgea copin him some quater water and then he hears music playing from a lil boombox that the nigga behind the counter got right… they both noddin they heads, and the nigga is like turn that shit up.. that song that plays off that radio is the actual song and the nigga who coped the water starts rappin and walkin down brookling from his point of view giving daps and all that shit

   so I was watching Borat last night and remember he goes on a motorhome with those crackers from middle of nowhere, honkeyville. they start spewing some of the stupidest most racist shit ever and they dont even know it. That is typical cracker from the middle of this country..and you wanna say racism/ignorance is dead GTFOH. You can never ever help those dudes out. and they didnt have a fucking clue ‘In this country whites are the minority’(c) dude in borat

    2- Yeah, that’s probably the best one right there.

    3- You know what’d be awesome? A hip-hop version of Genesis’ “Land of Confusion”. You can stick “Thriller” and “Sledgehammer” straight up MTV’s ass, “Land of Confusion” is the greatest video of all time.

    Couldn’t you just picture puppet versions of Dubya and all these rappers and stuff? Someone needs to do this and faaasssst.

    NR is good therapy. I’m not perfect but my win-loss ratio is very respectable. feww cats on this site is seein me when it comes to politics, black cluture, history, subjects outside hip hop.
