No words needed. Awesomeness ahead...
Soundgarden's "Outshined"
This song reminds me of that old Playstation game, Road Rash. You know, the one where you race motorcycles and hit other racers with pipes and chains and knock them off of their bikes?
Faith No More's "Epic"
5 points if you noticed the Mr. Bungle shirt. 500 points if you can tell what Mr.Bungle is. Have fun!
2 of the best singers to come out of the 90's. And surprisingly enough, are both still alive. Good for them!

Ok so this is me, switching it up from West Coast to the East. Now even though I'm from the West Coast there were a few artists that I really liked. This guy was one of them as shown by the video below. This was his first release under "Bad Boy".
THEN IT HAPPENED as it usually did. (See vid below) Puff Daddy/Diddy/WTF ever, got ahold of this kid and then fucked the whole program up. With Puff's shitty dancing and cornball moves, it's just made for bad video and hip-hop. This is when it all went downhill and it was over for our boy Craig Mack. This is probably why he left Bad Boy right after this album.
"See P. Diddy, you couldn't just leave it alone huh. You had to make him look like a smaller, younger B.I.G. Anything for the money right!"
The Remix ("BAD" Boy Style)
And then there was another that he couldn't just stay out of. This was typical for anything that Puffy had his hands into. Randomly dancing and saying stupid shit in the songs/vids. WTF!

Old School Friday: Latino Edition
You guys probably don't know who Kid Frost is. He is a legend mainly in southern California and Texas. "La Raza" is the song that he is most known for and when I listen to this track I usually feel like doing a drive-by. So watch yo ass sucka!!!!
Return of the Lynch Mob
"You gets no love and I thought you knew it
Fool, you know how we do it"
In High School my friends were literally that... "High"! Always trying to get me to join in their little reindeer games of getting faded without getting caught by the teachers. I however was all about the music.
Believe it or not I really only listened to this stuff during my H.S. years.
You wouldn't know nowdays based on the stuff I listen to, but I was a huge Ice Cube fan back in the day. Slow beats with great flow and rhymes. However my parents didn't appreciate me listening to this stuff due to the violent nature of that culture back then.
But every time I hear the high pitched whine in the background track it takes me back to a simpler time. A time when my cousin thought he was black, and I would go over his house to swim. We would make cool-aid before swimming and since his parents didn't give a shit we would put as much sugar as we could in the stuff until it was almost syrup and then go swimming and see who could do the dummbest shit. (Dive off garage into pool. Do gainers off the rickety slide into the deep end. Dive off house into the shallow end)
Yeah those were good times.
Tres Delinquentes!!
Does anyone else remember this song. It blew up in south Florida when it came out, but I'm not sure about everywhere else. I had never seen the video before. The best part? A midget on a skateboard... in a bar... for no apparent reason!!! I challenge you to find something better than that.

The award goes to...
The most unintentionally funny video of all time award goes to Journey for Seperate Ways. This video just oozes 80's cheese. Just look at the woman in the video. I don't think there was more of an 80's specimen than her. From the awesome hair and make-up, to the all leather skirt and jacket (collar up, of course) and white pumps. Hotness!!! I will now go through and point out the bits of the video that stand out as pure awesomeness!
(Author note: I only know Steve Perry's name. The rest of the band shall be reffered as the instruments that they play. Except for Chester, the bass player. More on that later.)
The video opens with them standing around as Keyboard plays an air keyboard, and Drummer keeps time on his air drums. Then BAM! The instruments appear. Amazing!
:20- Chick walks by and the entire band walks up to the camera as if they were in a high school musical. Then Drummer strikes a tough guy pose.
:29- Check out the dramatic camera cuts while Steve sings his heart out
:36- Now the rest of the band gets their air instruments and continue to rock out
:55- Keyboard is either playing his air keyboard, or seducing us with his tiger claws. Rawr!
1:15- Now we are in the band cluster. If you watch on the right, Drummer will bust out a little air drums for you. Then just to mess with you, he switches to air guitar. Tricky bastard.
1:27- Why would you play a keyboard up on the wall?
1:31- Does Drummer's shirt say "FOOSBALL?"
1:54- Steve is so upset, he slams his fist into the wall. It looks like it kind of hurts
2:07- Is he being dramatic, or is he seizing?
2:18- Here we are being treated to an awesome shot of Steve's mouth. Then we are treated to an awesome chase cam, where Steve is backing his way through a maze of trash as if he is being chased by a monster. But a really slow and lazy monster.
2:30- Holy shit! It does say "FOOSBALL" I can't tell if that is lame, or the coolest thing anyone has worn in a video ever.
2:33- Our first good shot of Chester's bitchin' moustache
2:38- Steve jumps into the shot like Richard Simmons and proceeds to walk away the pounds for us
3:04- This next bit confuses me. Why the hell is Drummer playing a bunch of oil drums? Yet the rest of the band gets to use their real instruments. Let me add that I love Chester's square 80's bass with the hidden tuning pegs. And his serious "rock" face. Everyone else just rocks for the camera.
4:20- The rest of the video is more of the same. Awesome 80's chick walking inexplicabilly around some warehouses. Steve Perry being awesome and dramatic at every possible chance. The rest of the band pretending that this is a great idea. Finally we cut to a shot with a chick in bed with headphones on. Was this all a bad dream? God, I hope so.
There is so much awesomness in this video, I'm sure I missed something. So let me know if you guys find anything else awesome.

What ever happened to these guys??
I remember that I really liked this song and a few others by K7. But as quickly as they showed up, they vanished. Does anyone out there in the interweb know what happened?

This one is for the ladies!
Had I been old enough to be getting it on back in 1993, I would have been doing it to Jodeci's album, Diary of a Mad Band. This album had so many great songs on it. I suggest that all the guys out there go out and find it. Then have a nice dinner, a long walk on the beach, and finally bring her home and put this on. After all that, I like your chances!
Here's a song off their first album. You might want this one too...

Bone Thugs Friday
Fo Tha Love of Money
Since today is Bone Thugs n Harmony Friday I am blessing you with one of their best songs. I don't know if you guys remember this or not but Bone's music talked about of course smoking weed and also some paranormal shit. Example, they had a song called Mr. Ouija. I had a friend who told me he had a friend who played their CD on a continous loop while he slept and when he woke up, he had scratches all over his face. I remember being like oh shit I better not play this shit. In retrospect I had some pretty stupid friends.
Mr Ouija...oh no they're gonna get me!!!
Put it On Bullet...Put it in Your Brain
Know The Ledge is on the soundtrack of one the greatest movies of all time (JUICE) from one the greatest rappers of all time (RAKIM). WRECKING CREW!!!!
It's the Thuggish-Ruggish Friday
I know I already posted a Bone video this week, but I thought I should take it back to their first video.
