Incredibly dated but honestly still catchy and fun. “The Humpty Dance” was played ad nauseam in 1990 with good reason because it rocks. I’m glad to have heard this album. There needs to be more nautical and sci-fi themed rap.
Quick movie pitch: Hannibal Burress did a bit on a podcast lovingly making fun of old school rappers and how simple their rhymes were, and I think that two minute bit could be made into a whole movie.
Open on our heroes, old school rappers on top of the world selling out clubs just by going, “My name is [rapper] and I’m here to say . . .” and telling people to wear condoms and not to smoke crack. Then a Rakim-like rapper comes along and starts doing internal and multisyllabic rhymes and the old school rappers get made irrelevant overnight.
And then other stuff happens. I guess a love interest maybe. Then the old school and new school rappers unite to defeat a common enemy or something. I don’t know. I don’t know how to write screen plays, but you get the idea.
Call it “Rhyme of the Century”, cast Hannibal Buress, Chris Rock and Will Ferrell as LL Cool J. Make a million dollars. You’re welcome.
