Anna Won Kenobi concurs.

2 nights ago, pissed I was, and almost ended up at a hip hop partay. Unfortunately, when we got there we realized that the club that was hosting it was closed for August. I promise to go there when it opens and shake it.

strong the force is with this one

No old school Busta post is complete without "RAWR, RAWR, like a dungeon dragon!"

Anna 'shaking it' at the Greek hip-hop spot.  I'd pay to see that one.

You probably don't know this about me, but for 2 solid years, I was only listening to hip hop (preferences including Busta, Ludacris, Xzibit) and going to 1 or 2 hip hop parties a week ;)

that video has to be one of my all time fav's troy

Yeah, yeah...I'm still pretty sure the sight of it would bend my mind into a pretzel. :)

I changed my little drawers cuz my pants were saggin....

I remember being in 8th grade, and my friend and I would tape Yo! Mtv Raps every day.  We must have replayed the "Scenario" video 50 times a day for two weeks.  Two white kids, dressed in there catholic school uniforms, bouncing around the living room to Tribe/LONS was a sight to see. 

That friend that I did this with ended up going to Duke, graduating at the top of his class then graduated from Georgetown Law School.  I would attribute that to Busta, Phife and Q-Tip and their lyrical wisdom.  Obviously they didn't have that great of an effect on me though. 

Also on that tape: Kriss Kross's "Jump".

Those were the days.

Ah, man, not Kriss Kross!  I was a die hard ABC fan.  Kriss Kross were weak!

Ahhhhh.....ABC....the soundtrack to my 8th grade trip to Montreal.  I vivdly remember listening to their song "Spiderman" that whole trip.  I also vivdly remember buying a switchblade when I was there too, because they were so cool and I had a strong need for one.  And by "strong need" I mean absolutely no reason whatsoever.  But I was 14 and they let me buy one, so why not?  Stupid Americans.  

Hey, what's childhood without a switchblade?  An empty, meaningless existences, THAT'S what!

That, and a 2-year stint in Juvie for stabbing a nun. 

ALLEGEDLY.

I'm sure she had it coming.

I wish I could find a clip of the Blues Brothers when they go to see "the penguin."

Dam!  By the time I got here it was already Saturday - but in the early A.M. - so I'm feelin' like Daddy Fat Stacks...

You're better off "Speaking in Tongues" in this church Blues Brother's clip, vs. the Penguin - but I couldn't find that one either...
