Ah mid-90s rap, the only time in modern civilization in which you can open a song by rhyming hippopotamus and neurologists and convince people why moonshine is better than manufactured alcohol in a rhythmic fashion. Everything that hip-hop is, it already was in the 90s. What people are listening to now is just an archaic revival. Guys like E-40 should have a statue constructed in their likeness so that future generations will never forget the essence of Bay Area hip-hop. Heiroglyphics, Too Short, MF Doom, Andre Nikatina, Luniz, Mac Dre, Living Legends -- I know a lot are missing from that list, which is even more reason to construct even more statues. Just cover Oakland in a row of bronze statues and hope the vagrants don't steal pieces and sell them at a scrap yard. That's the American way.

Nate Diaz is another entity that hails from Northern California. Although we haven't seen or heard Nate Diaz drop a freestyle (yet), his fanbase does cross over with that of E-40 and most any other Bay Area rapper. That's probably why this video of E-40 and Nate Diaz attending a signing shouldn't surprise you that much -- although it is pretty cool.

I'm from the east coast & I'm not really into rappers like E-40. But I like the song 'Ay Yo for Yayo' by Andre Nikatina but that's the only song by him that I know of. Sometimes I imagine Ronda dancing how girls from 90's hiphop videos danced. Like, I actually imagine her dancing in the videos. There's a song that go like "I put my hand up on your hip. When you dip, I dip we dip. You put your hand up on my hip. When I dip, you dip, we dip." I liked that song & video. Sometimes I imagine doing that dance with Ronda. I don't like to dance though. I've never learned to dance. But I've always wanted to learn to break dance. I think Ronda would be good at break dancing because she's really athletic & has a strong upper body for a woman.

Hey, i never actually read beyond 3 lines of your chapter books that you post that incorporates dark memories from your past and intertwined with an updated Ronda Rousey fetish story. But god-damn i gotta give you credit on your troll tactics. Fascinating approach. Weird as hell non the less...but fascinating.

The Digable Planets were cool like that. Back then every song wasn't about money and materialistic things.
