Rock Dis Funky Joint

I'm not sure if any rapper carried a group like Wise Intelligent did Poor Righteous Teachers back in the day. I bet if you name any other rap group you'll be able to come up at least with some kind of argument for the value of the various members. For example A Tribe Called Quest could have never flourished without Fife and even a cracked out Flava Flav somehow continues to merit participation in Public Enemy. I don't really have much else to say about this group besides the fact that I liked them back in the day...Plus I'm sure y'all would just rather watch the video then hear about the woman I used to date from Trenton who used to get really animated whenever PRT was brought up in conversation. Listen to her talk you'd swear they were the Beatles....

Without any further ado I present to you Trenton's version of Run DMC...



Thanks again Youtube for another find....

yo, so i'm at show at SOB's about a year or two ago. i can't remember who was playing. i'm left of the stage. i mean real close and i'm chilling enjoying the performance until this extra enthused dude starts bumping into me and "buck bucking" his arm in the air. so exuberant is he that i feel spittle raining down on my pressed hair with each increasinly bellicose "buck". not cool. so i loudly hem and haw then turn to briefly ice grill him and when he finally shrinks from embarassment i return to enjoying the show. 5 minutes later this same dude is called to the stage by the performers where he kicks the illest verse on blackness. i'm like damn its wise intelligent that i played. i felt bad but he needed to curb his enthusiasm.
