This rap 12 Inch was a jam on both sides. I remember the vocal side....

Ladies on the corner look so fine
And man, oh man, I wish she was mine
I mean she looks so cute in her skintight suit
But she was sellin' that body as a prostitute

It might sound sad...or might sound funny...but that's what people do for money

Then you had the dub side in which the music was broken down more funky with just a hooker talkin'.....

You would be surprised what people do for money
I mean there's just no limit to what some people just dooooo.....for moneyyyyy...

Then the bitch would just moan for a while.

Back in the days when rappers knew how to throwdown and get funky! Anyone into this one?

Aw yeah, I remember this one. It was very derivative of Run-DMC, but still a great song. They did a special version with a personalized verse for Kiss-FM, the NYC radio station.

I actually bump this kinda b-boy music on the regular.

I'll be bumping this tonight in VainAndy's honor!

VainAndy, I live in the suburbs. My neighbors are pissed at you, right about now!

Another great jam

My job had a retreat a few years ago waaay out in the country at a lodge by a lake. We had a dinner and party that Friday night and we had to sleep over in motel rooms at the resort and have breakfast and meetings that Saturday.

I was on the entertainment committee so I was to bring some mix tapes for the party on Friday night. Those tired old biddies in the party told me they would be happier listening to blues on the radio so I said "fine, enjoy yourselves". I took my tapes and me and a handful of people had our own party in a friend's room. These folks were closer to my age so we knew how to party. He had some kind of green liquor he had mixed up.....I tasted Vodka in it. We got drunk, turned that music up loud, and started talkin' cash shit. We kept hearing knocks at the door all night and thought it was management going to throw us out. Instead, it was those old biddies wanting to join our party. We told them to take their asses back down to the lodge and listen to their blues. The next morning, my boss (who is a friend) said she heard loud music and laughter over at her room on the other side of the lake. She looked out her window and people were coming and going all night. She said she knew my ass had to be in that room somewhere in the middle of all that being the ring leader. She knows me well.

Vainandy´s threads always make me nostalgic and sentimental...


I was sooooo into the HipHop movement back then...this track is a killer song.
