Speaking of which... June could've been a Bowie track...

If you're an old fart you should know what a Mack is. Honestly I didn't realise that term was still a thing. All I know is I see that word and think "lame-o-rama".

Being a shit criminal who acted like a hooligan moron does not make you "badass," it makes you a cunt.

OK, Dutch old fart might be more appropriate... I am not familiar with Yankeedoodle slang

Am I the only one that hears Curly Fryz saying "pussy" on this song?

Fair enough. Although the term is known in the UK too thanks to that one-hit wonder Mark Morrison - terrible song, but he at least got the term stuck in the national lexicon!

is this the right forum?

Well you need to get out more. Mack is still being used and does not mean a dude is a pimp. For everyday use it is a guy who gets around with the ladies. I am amazed that some of you have to be reminded that P is African American.

i clearly stated, "or employs pimping tactics"...which means loosely the same thing you said..."gets around with the ladies"...smh

laat maar.

Holy crap!! He is??!!! When did that happen? Why doesn't anyone ever mention that fact?

Wait. I knew what "mack" meant. But I'm not African American--how does that happen? I'm so confused.

^^ all joking aside.....this 1973 movie is excellent!! I highly recommend it

This album contains the mack anthems Freaky Tales and Mack Attack.
