You know how we do it? Get it in Let's go.

Speaker 2 (00:10):
Infinite Banter podcast. Baby.

Speaker 3 (00:41):
Here it is another episode of the Infinite Banter podcast.
What is Happening? My name is Mark jolib Hustle known
as DJ Soundway. Things for checking out the show got
a special one here. This episode is a torture episode.
Not the whole episode, but most of it. For those
of you who've been listening to this show for a while,
every now and then, maybe about four or five times

(01:03):
a year, I did this segment called Infinite Torture where
I will watch a movie. It's only been I've only
done an album once, which is the first time I
ever did. It was listening to The Macho Man Randy
Savage reps cd ugh. Alright, so that's the genesis of this.
That was what started it. But ever since then, it's
been only movies. And I usually watch a movie that

(01:25):
I've never seen before and knowing that it'll probably be bad,
or it was not something that I would have cared
about and I avoided it, or it just never came
across my path. So today is a movie I've known about,
I've heard about, I'm aware of its existence, but never saw.
And if you heard the last episode I talked about
it in there, it's from nineteen eighty five. The movie

(01:46):
is called Rappin', and long story short, I was texting
my guy dj ariel Wan, He's been on the show
numerous times, known him for a long time, good friend
of mine, and I kind of last sewed him into it, like, hey, dude,
why don't you watch this thing? Because I like doing
them with other people. I usually do them alone, but
every now and then, you know, I'll get Rhinoceros Funk
to come on like you had and my guy Tonio

(02:08):
who came on before. It's always kind of nice to
have someone else to bounce the torture off of, someone else,
to feel the torture chamber of this along with you.
It's easier when you're doing something bad to do it
with company as opposed to doing it by yourself. So
we're gonna talk about the movie Rappin', starring Mario van
Peebles and others, and talk about that in the Infinite

(02:31):
Torture segment, which is a majority of this episode, so
I brought that up in the last episode. I previewed
doing that in the last episode. Well, as you always do,
before we go forward, we go back, and in the
last episode, I had azaray On talk about his new
album with Slide Beats called Black Falcon. Here's a clip
from that episode with as Aria here on the Infinite
Banter podcast Flashback.

Speaker 4 (02:52):
I actually set Black Falcon on this project I did
produced by Cello Brown with my Manji Hustle you Phony Bars,
called Smooth Freshness Lafia Cafe. It was something I said
in one of the verses where I'm like, consider myself
of a black Falcon, I consider a youth halt and
the Hustle was like a silver back Gorilla. It was

(03:13):
in one of the songs that I kind of said
something to that effect, so kind of just had a
ring to it. I've said it in other verses before,
and there's something that I always wanted to stick with
and kind of, you know, make a project off of it.
And like I said, slide Beaches, you know, providing me
with the landscape to kind of do that.

Speaker 3 (03:31):
Definitely go back and check out that last episode if
you've not heard it. Yet Big shout out to as
Ariyah been the show multiple times, and check out that
album he has with Slide Beats called Black Falcon. Definitely
one of my favorite albums of the year. You know,
I've been doing this show for six years now, and
it feels like every year I do this around March April,
you know, early spring, I'm sitting here talking about, Oh,

(03:51):
it's my favorite album of the year. It's gonna be
on that list. And I already see this happening. So
if I do a list like I usually do, this
will be on there. I'm pretty sure of it. And
so as Arayah, you got a classic on your hands.
Big shout out to him. Check out Black Falcon on
all platforms. Definitely check him out on band camp. Speaking
of albums, I'm doing something i haven't really done before
on this episode. So I'm already doing something different by

(04:13):
having a guest on for Infinite Torture that's already a
little out of the ordinary. But also I'm doing a
review of an album after the Infinite Torture segment from
a many Vase MC out in Florida. He hit me
up recently. He's been on the show a couple of times,
so longtime listeners should know his name.

Speaker 1 (04:30):
It's been a.

Speaker 3 (04:30):
Couple of years since he's been on, but he hit
me up. He's like, hey, man, do you do reviews?
Would you review my album? I was like, yeah, I'll
do that. I mean, it's definitely different than I usually
do it, but I generally have the guest on, and
them being on is my endorsement of what they're working
on or what they've released, so in the sense, that
is the review. But I've never actually done like a
straightforward review of something without the guest being there, so

(04:52):
that means I could talk bad about it, right, No, No,
I could do that at all. No, I'm gonna definitely
throw some flowers over at my many Vase. His new album,
It's About to Rain, produced by DJ Proof, is out
right now. Go seek it out. It's on band camp
and I really really like it. I'm going to get
into it later on, So stay tuned if you could
get through this torture segment, if you could sit through,

(05:13):
it's going to be long. Here is talking about that
movie rapping. After that, I will give my thoughts on
the new album from Evase and Djproof. It's About to Range,
so stay tuned for that. You know, I like challenges.
I do things differently, you know, No, I actually I
don't like challenges. It's like doing let me get that
change that. I'll do a review that's different how I

(05:33):
normally do the show. But I don't necessarily like challenges.
Who wants to do things hard? I don't want to
do things hard? No, no, no, something that's different than
what I normally do, but still in the idea of
what I do. That's Was there a word for that?
What is that word? Challenge? Is not the right word?
Something else? Anyways, this whole episode is a little out
of the norm, and I like that.

Speaker 1 (05:52):
You know.

Speaker 3 (05:52):
It's like putting on that pair of pants that you
haven't worn.

Speaker 1 (05:56):
In a while.

Speaker 3 (05:56):
You put them on, like, all right, it's a little
bit different, little tight, doesn't fit right whatever. I don't
know what the hell I'm saying. Let's get into the
show here. I think Rappin messed up my brain. And
also I'm turning a year older by the time this
episode drops. My birthday should be a couple of days
after it. And I'm hitting a milestone number, a number

(06:17):
that you know, I'm not really looking forward to. But
I'm doing something special for it, So if you stay
tuned through the whole episode, I'll tell you what I'm
doing for this number that I'm turning. There's a lot
of teasing in there, but I don't care. That's what
we do here on the Infinite Banter Podcast, which you
can hear on all platforms. Check me out on social

let's get into it. Time for some infinite torture. Strap

movie before so you know what we're talking about. If
you have not. I believe it's still on two B
because it told me it was not gonna be in

(07:20):
two B anymore. And then I went on two B
and it's said it's still there, so I guess they
couldn't really pull it. They're trying to scare you into
watching it because it's gonna be gone, but it's still
kind of there. Nonsense, So go check out Rappin'. I
think the torture segment be a lot more enhanced if
you've seen the movie before. But maybe you haven't and
you listen to us talk about it and you want
to watch it, or you don't. I don't know what

(07:42):
your reaction is going to be. I know what ours is.
Stay tuned from mine and DJ Rialwan's assessment of the
movie Rappin' on Infinite Torture coming up. After the One
and Only King from Queen speaks DMC, he says this,

Get out of here, complete garbage, infinite jo.

Speaker 3 (09:52):
This is here another edition of Infinite Torture where I
put myself in unfortunately somebody else through the idea of
watching a movie. The parameters are that I've never seen
the movie before. That's the point of this. So I've
never seen the one we're about to talk about. Welcome in,
my guy. You've heard them on numerous episodes in the past,
The one and only DJ real One.

Speaker 1 (10:14):
What's up, man? What's going on? Man? I'm happy to
be back, are you sure? Also, I'm very excited.

Speaker 4 (10:19):
Man.

Speaker 1 (10:20):
I'm excited because, let me just put this out there.
I listened to all the shows, and my favorite part
of your show is the Infinite Torture. So I'm glad
to be a part of this segment.

Speaker 3 (10:30):
Until you were part of it, though, is different when
you're when you're when you're like on the sidelines watching
it like oh or hearing it like, oh, man, sounds awful.
I'll never watch it now, like you're doing homework.

Speaker 1 (10:43):
I will say this, this is the most work that
I've had to put in to be on the show,
because you guys just come on promoting, promoting something fun
that I'm doing, and you know, some music. But this
one I actually had to take time out and torture
myself and it kind of hurt. That kind of hurt.

Speaker 3 (11:00):
I mean, it's ninety minutes of your time that you'll
never get back.

Speaker 1 (11:04):
Dude, exactly exactly how many songs.

Speaker 3 (11:06):
Could you have made? How many songs could you have
made it that ninety minutes?

Speaker 1 (11:10):
Yeah, exactly. And now my inspiration for my future music
is this bad movie called Rapping. Oh that's my inspiration.

Speaker 3 (11:19):
Oh man, so you already hate it? All right, good
good night. That's it. He doesn't like it. It's a torture.
It's a torture segment, right, so the cats out the bag.
But of course people listen on the last episode already
kind of previewed this hotness called Rapping from nineteen eighty
five Cannon Films. If you grew up in the eighties,
Cannon Films was like they were it. When you saw

(11:40):
that Canon logo, you know you're in for a mediocre time.
Sometimes a good time, but usually not too great.

Speaker 1 (11:48):
Exactly.

Speaker 3 (11:49):
I want to say a couple things right off the top,
But if you've got something you want to get out first,
I don't want to step on anything you might say.
But if you've got any intro thoughts, oh.

Speaker 1 (11:56):
I mean intro to the movie or just to just.

Speaker 3 (11:59):
Any kind of like general thought, because I have a
couple of general thoughts. I wanted to kick off with, well.

Speaker 1 (12:03):
My general thought. When you told me about the movie,
and without even watching the trailer, I was kind of excited.
I thought, oh, how did I miss this one? Right?
So maybe this is something that I should have seen
back then along the lines of what is it like?
Wild Style, Breaking right Beach Street? I thought, man, man,
how did I miss this possible classic? And now I

(12:24):
know why?

Speaker 3 (12:25):
Yeah, I was gonna say, like, when you hear about eighties,
you know, hip hop themed movies. You just mentioned Beat Street, Breaking,
Breaking two, Wild Style, I mean, Crush Groove, You never
hear anybody, no one ever was like what about rapping?
Nobody ever says what about rapping? Nobody's ever claiming this shit?
So now we know why exactly. So that was one

(12:47):
of my general thoughts too, is that you always hear
about these movies and we've all seen them, those that
are fans of the music in the culture or grew
up in that timeframe. You just know about these movies.
But this one never crossed my path. I never had
a even a second to watch it. It's it's not
even one of those movies like when you see when
when you're a kid and you liked it because you
were a kid and you don't know better and you
watch it late like, oh, it's not that good. I

(13:09):
remember it better than it was. I never had that opportunity.

Speaker 4 (13:12):
Man.

Speaker 3 (13:12):
I didn't as a ten year old or whatever you
know I was when this came out, I did. It
didn't cross my path, man, I never nobody had me.

Speaker 1 (13:19):
Yeah, like breaking, like breaking. I mean, like, so you
be watching now like not that good, you know, but
maybe back then when you were younger. Artis just a
movie right here.

Speaker 3 (13:28):
But there's nostalgia to that because you have like a memory,
like I remember where I was when I saw this.
I was at SO and SO was sleepover, or we
ordered pizza and we watched a crust groove like I
have a crush groove memory like that, Like so it's
it's vivid for me. But nobody had me a VHS
tape from West Coast Video with rapping on it, saying, Yo.

Speaker 1 (13:45):
Watch this West Coast video.

Speaker 3 (13:47):
Remember that shout out?

Speaker 1 (13:48):
Yeah, man, yes, sir, I had that time. That's awesome.

Speaker 3 (13:53):
Another general thought I wanted to say before I start
talking about this or we start talking about it, this
is the movie that white people think all rap sounds like, right,
I mean hood, rep rapid hood.

Speaker 1 (14:05):
Oh my god, I mean.

Speaker 3 (14:08):
That's what it is, dude, what I'm watching it. It's like,
this is the same every time a white person wraps
that has no love for the culture or things that's
you know, not music or whatever, they sound like this.
They're stuck in this sound. And this sound in this
movie is actually dated. You know, it's eighty five. The
way there rapping is not eighty five.

Speaker 1 (14:26):
So any anyone that's listening that wants to watch the trailer,
when you pull up the trailer, right under the trailer,
you're gonna see Rapin' Rodney. Literally, like that's like recommend
Like when I pull up the trailer today just to
refresh myself. Rappin' Rodney was the one suggestive video so
you're absolutely right about that.

Speaker 3 (14:44):
Oh man, And it is rapping duke like three or
four clicks down and then pretty much you know, all
this Sugarhill Gang like catalog.

Speaker 1 (14:52):
Yeah, I actually I actually have a note on the
movie about that, if I could talk about that. Yeah,
I pretty much said that the lyric right off the bats,
they sounded like nineteen seventy nine, not nineteen eighty five.
And when I googled that, I see that love Bugs
Starsky wrote a lot of this.

Speaker 3 (15:08):
Did you know that that a Did you know that
Mario Van Peeble's a star? His rapping was master G
from Sugarhill Gang overdubbed.

Speaker 1 (15:17):
I had to research everything, and that's exactly why it
sounds like nineteen seventy nine. You know, they're way late.
By nineteen eighty five, hip hop was already kind of established,
so they didn't have to really take it to that
old school sound. You know.

Speaker 3 (15:30):
Yeah, it sounds like like you just said, like sugar
Hill Gang, that seventy nine eighty era. And in hip
hop we already know. You know this, We all know.
Anyone who's a fan of the music knows this. Three months,
six months a year in hip hop music is like
a decade. Everything changes so rapidly that rapidly they're like
on this. In this like eighty five, you would think

(15:53):
that they would have been up on things like plug
King of Rock or something. They had no idea what
how people were rapping in this era. But of course
Hollywood they don't. They don't know what the hell they're doing,
and Mario van Peebles doesn't know how to do this.
Right before I get into the cast, because I want
to mention there's some names in here which kind of
made you think it might be a good movie. It's
on to be at least another day or two as

(16:14):
I'm recording this. If you don't see it on there anymore,
you're gonna have to. I don't know, you get to
pay to see this. I don't know why you would.

Speaker 1 (16:22):
But watch the trailer. Yeah, watch the trailer. That's it.

Speaker 3 (16:27):
But trailer might think it, you might think it's good.
I watched one of the whole thing was Iced Tea
rapping about how the movie is this, and I was like, oh,
Ice teasing this a lot, not really, but he is
in the movie. Mario van Peebles, who went on to
do some other movies and some are good, some are bad.
Eric Leasal, who you might remember from Coming to America,
the soul Glow guy, and er Er he's one of

(16:50):
the crew. I think they're called the wild Thing Boys
or something.

Speaker 1 (16:54):
Oh my, oh that was I recognize. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (16:57):
And Kadeem Hardison Dwayne Wayne from Different World was in it.
Were in a Civil War hat for some reason, he
didn't have the glasses that pop up and down, but
he was it. And for c D's make a cameo too,
so that was kind of cool. But uh, yeah, this
is uh, this is brutal and the mere event people's
plays the main character named John Rappinhood, so I guess
it's like a Robin Hood thing, right yep. And the

(17:19):
music man, it sounds like Beverly Hills cop music right
off the start of it, with that that synthesizer shit,
so they're even behind on that too.

Speaker 1 (17:27):
The whole sound was just david and it just made
me think, when was this recorded? You know, I don't
know when they made this movie.

Speaker 3 (17:34):
You know, Well, according to white people, it's it's probably
new and fresh because they think that's how it still.

Speaker 1 (17:38):
Sounds if they watch it today. In twenty twenty five,
they'll be like, Wow, this is rap, this is real rap.

Speaker 3 (17:45):
Well, they're really good at this, and they have tattoos
on their face like these other ones do. This is
the real og stuff. It's always I'm sure some people
be like, why is a white guy making fun of
white guys?

Speaker 1 (17:58):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (17:58):
I know, right, whatever, we got like some some credit
in this that we want to make sure that it's
you know, not revoked. So we got to, you know,
let the others know that we can spot garbage when
it's out there. We'll get to the how how much
garbage this movie is? But so I guess the movie
sets up where he was in jail. I don't really

(18:19):
know why he was in jail, but he comes out
of jail and he just starts rapping the Marvin Peeple's guy's.
He just gets out. He's dancing and rapping. I've never
been to jail. I know you haven't. I'm assuming if
I go to jail for you know, more than like
thirty minutes, and if I'm in there for a while,
I'm not coming out like yeah, yeah, rap it, I'm
not doing all that stuff.

Speaker 1 (18:36):
Man.

Speaker 3 (18:36):
I'm probably like, man, like, what am I gonna do?
Where am I gonna live? What am I gonna? You know,
have a job? Whatever? He's he's singing and dancing like
he's in a musical.

Speaker 1 (18:44):
Yep, And I made it know that. One minute into
the movie, the worst iced tea song I've ever heard
in my life starts playing that song. So he made
another one called the Glove. And this song what Glove
wasn't terrible, but it's early iced tea and this one
is straight up trash rapping. I feel like he didn't

(19:07):
even write it, to be honest with you.

Speaker 3 (19:10):
He won't take credit for it.

Speaker 1 (19:11):
Right.

Speaker 3 (19:12):
Is that the killer song the one? Or is that
the one later he did? He did not killer or
something in the movie.

Speaker 1 (19:18):
The one later was actually good. I'm talking about the
one like right off the bat well rappin Hood's dancing
around the neighborhood. That song that's icedy rapping. Yeah, that's
just bad man.

Speaker 3 (19:29):
Yeah, I got you to do it because I've done
it like three times already.

Speaker 1 (19:32):
Sopping rapping down the street. Well.

Speaker 3 (19:37):
I had to pause the movie at that point too,
because I know that's not Mario Vin Peele's voice. I've
seen him in a lot of movies, and it said
master g at least dubbed in the rapping stuff. So
you know, we can only blame Marvin people so much
because he he did the bad acting, but he didn't
do the bad rapping.

Speaker 1 (19:53):
Yeah, I mean, I mean, and that's the thing about
Master G is like no disrespect to like an og,
but he's not really good in general. I mean, maybe
they were the first, but we all know the story
behind sugar Hill Gang, so it's like, if you're going
to do that, why not just get Grandmaster Kaz, you know,
like somebody who actually wrote the lyrics for sugar Hill Gang.
You know, I mean, I don't know. We could talk

(20:13):
all day about the music. Let's get on the story. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (20:16):
Well, you know, speaking of Master G, his brother is
in the movie, really, Leo O'Brien. He's the kid, the
kid that like the brother of Repinhood and he passed
away in twenty twelve, but he was in The Last
Dragon if you remember that movie, which is very similar
to this, you know, so he was I had you know, again,
this movie had a lot of like pause moments where

(20:37):
I hadn't. I needed to get away from it and
look up something because I'm like, who is this guy?
Who is that guy, you know, and that little kid,
like I know, I've seen that dude in something before.
And yeah, he was in The Last Dragon, which had
a lot of memorable songs, but they were bad too.
You know you got that, remember that?

Speaker 1 (20:52):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, classic.

Speaker 3 (20:54):
So he was the younger brother of Master G. So
when he does his versus, I thought he was the best.
The bar is really low, but I thought he was
the best. Wrapp Obviously, Iced Tea doesn't count because he's
he's not really one of the cast members as far
as like the crew walking around in the in the storyline.
But I thought the kid was the best of the group.
I thought he was decent.

Speaker 1 (21:14):
Yeah, I mean, if we're gonna set the bar low, right,
he would definitely he would definitely be the lyricist of
the group.

Speaker 3 (21:21):
He was the rock hymn of the Wild.

Speaker 1 (21:25):
Exactly.

Speaker 3 (21:26):
And of course there's a fat guy, because there has
to be a fat guy, and his name is Fats.

Speaker 1 (21:34):
Of course, Oh my god, Oh my god. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (21:39):
So so there's that scene when he comes home from
jail and then he comes I guess his grandmother's house.
There's no explanation of where his parents are, you know,
like anything like that he just comes in. He he
just starts rap rapping. You know, he's just him and
his little brother do a routine they haven't practiced. He
was in jail unless he did it on the click hall,
you know.

Speaker 1 (21:59):
Okay, I have a note on that part, and it
doesn't have to do with rap. He barks just like
the movie. He barks like his dog to He barks
like a dog to his grandma. He walks in and
starts like do you remember that part? God? Yeah, I mean,
as if the rapping wasn't bad enough, Like he's barking
at his grandma, like what's going on here?

Speaker 3 (22:18):
And she believed it was a dog? Right?

Speaker 1 (22:20):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (22:23):
I wanted the grandma to slap them bolt And he
started doing that little routine which felt like an hour.
I know, it was only like maybe a minute, the man,
it felt long.

Speaker 1 (22:31):
Now. I don't use the word cringe often, but that
was cringe. I hate to use that word, but there's
no other way to describe it. No, it is.

Speaker 3 (22:38):
It's total cringe.

Speaker 1 (22:39):
It's some early eighties double trouble type rhymes, just not
as good as them. No. I mean, you can watch
you can watch wild style double trouble to this day,
and it sounds good. But this one here, dude, I mean,
let's get out of the rapping, man, let's just talk
about the movie, man, because the music is just making
me mad.

Speaker 5 (22:56):
Well.

Speaker 3 (22:56):
Yeah, and that's that's kind of why I thought you'd
be good for this, because you're somebody who's in the culture.
You make music, you make beats, you do all kinds
of stuff in djaying for decades. I feel like your
opinion carries a lot of weight here, and watching this,
you know, as a fan as I am of the
culture and everything, it's just, man, it's kind of depressing
because I feel like they really don't have an idea

(23:17):
what the music is in the culture.

Speaker 1 (23:19):
Yeah, and the movie's trying so hard to be like
Beat Street or Crush Groove. Those movies were good now
at the time, man, Like you can go back and
listen to that music. I mean, I don't want to
keep talking about that, man, but you know what I'm saying, Like,
it just stresses me out that they couldn't get better,
like people to write the reps. Man, Otherwise this might

(23:41):
have been.

Speaker 3 (23:41):
Better, right, And I did see and trust Wikipedia for
what you will. This is considered part of the Breaking trilogy. Insact,
that's why iced T is in all three of them
damn movies. He's in Breaking one, he's in Breaking two,
Electric Boogoloo, and Rapping is considered a sequel. I haven't
seen Breaking two in like forty years. I don't remember
if this dude was in Nance or anything like that,

(24:02):
so I can't connect those dots.

Speaker 1 (24:04):
But I've never seen Breaking too, Believe it or not,
I have not watched that one. I watched Breaking, but
I never Yeah, Breaking was okay, it is what it is, right,
but it never got into Breaking two. So to hear
that this is a sequel, it doesn't surprise me. But
what does surprise me about that note is the fact
that there is no good dancing in this which takes me.

(24:27):
It takes me to my next note. It takes me
to my next note. So I'm glad you mentioned that
because the first dance battle, bro dude, like what can
I say? What can I say? Classic eighties ballet fame type,
It's like fame dude.

Speaker 3 (24:40):
It's funny because it's like you're looking at my notes
because my note after I want Grandma to smack them is, uh,
what is this dance club? And why is this guy
looks like Rambo and another guy looks like a fake
Michael Jackson doing some sort of like some you know,
like ballet musical. I don't know what to call that dancing,
Like there's no I was loaving for some break and
I was like, let's go get some break dancing in here.

Speaker 1 (25:02):
You guys.

Speaker 3 (25:02):
Did you know all these other movies in the past, Cannon,
you know, come on, let's go. Where's Turbono Zone?

Speaker 5 (25:08):
No?

Speaker 1 (25:08):
Nothing, That's what I'm saying. How did if this is
supposed to be a sequel, like, come on, man, like seriously, wow, yeah,
that's crazy.

Speaker 3 (25:16):
I wrote down Is this rapping or beat It? I
felt like this movie if everybody's seen the video for
Michael Jackson's Beat It, I feel like this is basically
a movie based on that video the white guy bad Guy, yeah,
you know, and rapping hood you know there, I keep
waving the tighter wrist together and have like a knife
and do the little dance thing where they're gonna stab

(25:37):
each other. This feels like beat It.

Speaker 1 (25:39):
Well, they totally bit the concept because after the little
ballet dance battle, then they looked in each other's eyes
and then yeah, and then shook each other's hands. It
was it was so lame. Man.

Speaker 3 (25:51):
My note here is like, when does the hip hop
part start?

Speaker 1 (25:53):
Oh? I think I have that same note.

Speaker 3 (25:55):
Do you know when? Because I'm still waiting.

Speaker 1 (25:58):
Well, all I know is after that dance battle, all
I hear My next note is hit me, hit me, Like,
let's talk about those greasers, man, those West Side Story greasers.

Speaker 3 (26:10):
Yeah, the Jets or the Sharks. I forget which ones? Which? Yeah?
What the hell was that?

Speaker 1 (26:18):
It's supposed to be nineteen eighty five, but it's looking
like nineteen sixty five. I don't know what's going on
with the costumes.

Speaker 3 (26:24):
Man, It's possible because they filmed this thing in Pittsburgh
that Pittsburgh is not, like, you know, the hot bed
for trends in nineteen eighty five. So I'm not trying
to hate on Pittsburgh. I've been there before. I like
the city. But it's very possible that in eighty five,
along with the reppin they were also behind on dancing
and clothes and gear and everything else. Is like, just

(26:47):
they're not up to speed yet with what was happening.

Speaker 1 (26:51):
I agree. I also have a note that not the
current note but later that actually says, Pittsburgh, what's really
going on, Like this movie is making you look bad?
Why are and why are they trying to make the
scenery We'll talk about this later, but why why do
they try hard to make the scenery look so extra
hood and everything abandoned and run down. You'll see it
later in the morning. But Pittsburgh looked. They made them

(27:12):
look bad, man, they made Pittsburgh look like crap.

Speaker 3 (27:15):
And the best part is, like, so the city looked
you know, fake, you know, fake bad. Right, But the
characters all had closed they they didn't look like they
were hurting from money like they all had you know,
they were dressed. Okay, I'm not saying they were just
fashionable and good. I'm just saying like nobody looked like
they were having a hard time finding an outfit, Like
nobody's walking around with like holes in their shirts and
looking like you know, the Brooklyn Brawler or something. They

(27:35):
all they weren't dirty, you know, the houses had like
wood windows and everything. Nobody had like a regular house
or apartment.

Speaker 1 (27:42):
No, it was. It was strange. But going back to
the dance battle scene with the Greasers, then he goes
on to say bathroom full.

Speaker 3 (27:55):
Yeah, dude, that bathroom scene? What the fuck is that room?

Speaker 1 (28:00):
Like? Who calls someone out and says bathroom fool?

Speaker 3 (28:03):
He didn't do that back then, back in like the
era when you were so real, when you're out, you know,
DJing at a club or something, you may have had
a beef with, like another DJ or something. You didn't
say bathroom fool and then go meet in the bathroom,
which I was confused because they were already in a bathroom,
so were they going to another bathroom? Like I don't
understand were they going to the girl's bathroom or the

(28:25):
men's Where were they going?

Speaker 1 (28:26):
Oh my god, that was just brutal man. I actually
had to write down him I nos, haha, just so
I remember how funny it was because I was literally
laughing out loud. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (28:36):
I just wrote bathroom scene because I didn't really know.
I didn't know what to make of any of that.

Speaker 1 (28:42):
And then and then I also wrote down is this
a comedy? Like is this a comedy or drama? It is?

Speaker 3 (28:48):
Yeah, And I also wrote down it's the first gender
neutral bathroom because the girl was in there too, So
I don't know. I like, I just said, I don't
know if it's the men's bathroom or the women's bathroom.
Maybe they're they were up on the only thing they
were progressive about was the bathrooms.

Speaker 1 (29:03):
The bathrooms. Yeah, she was all in the bathroom that
he came in. I don't know what's going on.

Speaker 3 (29:07):
My man was taking a shit and you know, wrapping,
rapping hood, like tell him to get out of there
or something. I don't know what he was doing. And
they're arguing about this girl that they the then it
doesn't make sense, like the white the bad guy whatever.
I don't remember his name, Dwayne. I think that was
his girlfriend. The way they set it up, rapping Hood.
He's been in the jail, so it's not his girl,

(29:29):
at least as far as I know. So I don't know.
I don't know what the beef is about. I don't
understand what the rap rapping beef.

Speaker 1 (29:36):
They didn't get into it. Yeah, I mean at this
point in the movie, I'm kind of confused. Like you said,
right off the bat, I don't know what the story
is about. And then the next scene you can talk
about that, because then it really goes off the rails.
If it's the same notes.

Speaker 3 (29:51):
That I haves oh, well, I was gonna say real
quick that is he called rapping hood because you know
how you call like a fat guy tiny, because he's
not hood at all. He's got like a couple pearls
hanging in the front of his head. I don't know
if you had eyeliner on, like he just looked like
a pretty man. So there was really nothing rapping hood
about him. But yeah, my my next note is, uh
oh it says they got a commercial. I need a
break because on two b they played commercials because I

(30:13):
needed a break from this bullshit. I was like, I
was really uh, I needed coffee or something, red bull,
anything to get through it.

Speaker 1 (30:20):
Uh.

Speaker 3 (30:21):
My next note was another fat guy's hungry joke, because
they make a lot of fat guy jokes.

Speaker 1 (30:26):
They make a lot of fat guy jokes. And then
I also have a note about the m f N.
I don't know if like it curves on here, No,
you go ahead, because I got to emphasize this this scene.
I gotta emphasize the scene. I got a note about
the mother fucking snack.

Speaker 3 (30:42):
Attack fat boys after mad they got ripped off on
this right here.

Speaker 1 (30:48):
The fat boy's bite though the fat boy's bite was
so ridiculous. It was insulting and I think that they
need to put a copyright claim in on that one,
and they owe them money for that that scene.

Speaker 3 (31:00):
And there's only one fat guy too, like the other
ones like all pretty looking, like you know, theater majors.
And then you got like Fats. That's his name, because
he couldn't come with anything else to call him. It's
like call him the fat guy in Star Wars Porkins,
Like it's like his name is just Fats and he
likes to eat, and you're in a warehouse with food.
They don't explain why they're in the warehouse. By the way,
I have no idea why they're there. I think they

(31:21):
give food away later on if somebody works there, one
of the crew, and they steal cans of corn and
they give it because he's Robin Hood reppin Hood and
he's given it to the you know, the boarded up
house people who never go to work but they're always
home and need food and heat.

Speaker 1 (31:39):
At this point in the movie, like I had a
pause it and Google I had to search win Crush
Groove came out and to our listeners, surprisingly, Crush Groove
came out after this movie. So, I mean if Fat
Boys were already out with albums, but the actual movie
came out after it, so it wasn't I mean, it
was a bite, but not the scene was not necessarily

(32:01):
a bite off a Crush Groove.

Speaker 3 (32:02):
I see what you did there by saying bite, you know,
fat guy eating food exactly. Yeah, that is kind of
crazy because I didn't. I know, Krush Groove came out
eighty five as well, but you're talking about it a
few months apart from each release.

Speaker 1 (32:15):
Yeah, right right, maybe.

Speaker 3 (32:18):
One of the people who worked on this got like
an advanced copy and wrote in the snack attack parts.
That's why it doesn't have any continuity to the plot.
It's just kind of thrown in there. Hey, let's talk
about the fat guy eating food because those guys did
it at Saborro and Crush Groove.

Speaker 1 (32:31):
Well, you know, like the Fat Boys were already making
videos and songs, that's true, like all all you can
eat and everything. So it's definitely if Fat Boys was
popular back then, being fat porky and all that stuff
and everything that was a big thing back in the eighties.

Speaker 3 (32:46):
You know, all right, I need to ask kou rock
Ski if he felt like they were getting bit by this.

Speaker 1 (32:51):
Yeah, absolutely absolutely, and we definitely felt it.

Speaker 3 (32:56):
Can you feel it? I Mean we definitely felt the
bite on that one. So there's an there is one
thing that felt kind of like, uh, like Current Times.
There's like a white real estate guy who's kind of
like a mobster, you know, he wants to buy up
all the real estate in that area to build things
and kick people out. Kind of feels like, you know,
sounds like a dude who we're all familiar with with

(33:16):
an orange face. Like he kind of has that feel
to it, because that's like every eighties movie, right, It's
like the evil corporate the types. They come in there
and they have to buy up everything and you have
to do like a talent show to raise money to
save the neighborhood. Right, is that that's basically what this
movie is exactly.

Speaker 1 (33:32):
I think it's definitely that, and I think it's the
corniest way of doing it by calling him wrapping hood.
I mean that is just idiotic. And by the way,
do you know if this is some sort of musical
or what is this like, uh, what is it labeled as?
Because it's it's a bad one at that.

Speaker 3 (33:49):
Yeah, it might be a musical or comedy or a thriller. Uh,
have no idea this is it's it's not good, I
know that, but it's yeah, that's a great you know what.
I could look it up on my phone where we're talking,
but I don't know if I want to do it
because my phone will be like, why are you looking
up this movie again? I already told you everything you
need to know.

Speaker 1 (34:12):
Because what's about to happen to both of us because
we were googling this movie so much and looking it up.
We're gonna start getting rapping Rodney, We're gonna start getting
raping do sugar Hill Game. We're gonna start getting all
this crap on our algorithm, you know what I mean?

Speaker 3 (34:24):
Yeah right, you can't get away from it. I wrote
down fat joke number four, so like, if you want
to do like a game while you're watching this, just
take a shot. Every time they do a fat joke.
You might get a little buzz going to get you
through the rest of the movie because you definitely need it.
But they make a lot of the fat jokes come
you know, they come quick. The least middle part of
this movie, there Fats is taken it from all.

Speaker 1 (34:45):
Sides yeah he is. Yeah, poor fats Man.

Speaker 3 (34:49):
I wrote down crushed snooze since it's like a you know,
since the obvious ripoff.

Speaker 1 (34:55):
Oh my god, exactly.

Speaker 3 (34:56):
What did you think of the not New Edition kids
singing in the alley to the little kids?

Speaker 1 (35:02):
Okay, so I don't as I do have a note
on that. So I said, this New Edition Wanta be
Kids group is also really bad? What's happening in this scene? Yeah,
I didn't necessarily hate it. I just didn't know the
relevance of it, Like why is this happening in the
middle of the hood. I guess you would say.

Speaker 3 (35:23):
Like, why aren't these kids in school, Like there's a
lot of kids right watching.

Speaker 1 (35:28):
What what was that? And what about the ballad song
at around the twenty three minute point where there was
like a love song? Yeah you remember you remember that one? Yeah?
I don't know.

Speaker 3 (35:40):
Yeah, Used Edition is out there these kids?

Speaker 1 (35:43):
What is happening?

Speaker 3 (35:45):
I'd rather watch what's happening?

Speaker 1 (35:47):
I mean.

Speaker 3 (35:49):
Used Edition kids are out there singing to Like there's
like one girl they kept showing. I'm like, okay, is
he singing to her? They're like twelve? I mean, it's like,
this is ridiculous. Why aren't you in school? Nobody goes
a work or school in this neighborhood. That's why the
neighborhood's in terrible shape, because nobody's got an education or
a job, and people just sitting around, you know, wait
for Rapid Hood to wrap his way out the hood.

Speaker 1 (36:11):
I do have a note on that scene as well,
because I think after the A Cappella New Edition song,
I think I don't know who it was. If it
was Rapping Hood. I don't have a note on that,
but it was the I wrote down the worst beatbox
ever happened in that scene? Yeah right, yeah, And then
I wrote down Sesame Street rap. Oh man, Sesame Street

(36:32):
rap scene. That's what it felt like.

Speaker 3 (36:33):
I've watched a lot of Sesame Street over the last
few years. Let me tell you there's some better rapping
going on. Oscar to Grouch would kill these dudes in
a battle. It counts get out of here to destroy
these fools.

Speaker 1 (36:46):
Wow, that's crazy.

Speaker 3 (36:48):
So did you like the color freestyle when Rapping Hood
was just there throwing colors at him and he was
just you know, rapping but yellow and green, and he
was smiling. I just wrote too much smiling, That's what
I wrote.

Speaker 1 (36:59):
Thanks for reminded me, because I did not make a
note of that because I was trying to forget that scene.
I didn't want to remember that. It's not good.

Speaker 3 (37:05):
You never walked down the street and just start rapping
about colors with five year olds.

Speaker 1 (37:10):
I mean, you can do it with Melody with your daughter, yeah,
but I just can't do it, man.

Speaker 4 (37:15):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (37:15):
So when I pick her up from the bust this afternoon,
I'm gonna just I'm gonna put a couple of curls
in front of my head and I'm not gonna I'm
gonna walk with her from the bus to the door
like Reppin' repping yellow and green. You know what I mean.
It's blue because it's cool.

Speaker 1 (37:32):
I think she will love this movie. I think that
you might have just figured out the target audience. I
think it's five year old.

Speaker 3 (37:40):
So what you're saying is I gotta watch it again?

Speaker 1 (37:43):
Yes, with her?

Speaker 3 (37:45):
She doesn't gotta work too be that's daddy's happen. Pay
me Tooby. How many movies have I been promoting on here?
From that? Damn app Let's go, Toby, give me some cash.

Speaker 1 (37:55):
Hey the man, pay the man.

Speaker 3 (37:57):
There's a line that they said in this movie that
I have to say it because I've never heard this
in all the years I followed hip hop music. So
the girl, when he's in the color freestyle, the girl
comes up the block, and of course he can't rhyme anymore. Oh,
he's so you know, shy around this girl. But she
heard him from like a block away. Somehow she knew
that he was like the shit from like, you know,
a block away, and she's like, you ever think about
going pro with rap?

Speaker 1 (38:18):
What?

Speaker 3 (38:19):
I've never heard that before? Going pro?

Speaker 4 (38:20):
Like?

Speaker 3 (38:21):
What the fuck does that mean? Basketball? What is he
talking about? Going pro?

Speaker 1 (38:26):
Hilarious? I love it? Ye remember that.

Speaker 3 (38:29):
So I got to ask my next guest, did you
ever think about that you'd be going pro? When did
you feel that you'd be going pro with this rap stuff?

Speaker 1 (38:36):
That's awesome?

Speaker 3 (38:37):
Man, stupid as hell.

Speaker 1 (38:39):
I don't know about you, man. But my next note,
it says iced tea. Maybe he can save the movie,
because we're at about the halfway. Yeah, I believe I
wrote down maybe he can save it. When I saw him,
I said that right.

Speaker 3 (38:52):
Well, they had that talent show, So this girl probably
should give a little bit of insight for people who
were never watching this. She apparently works for like a
a record executive of some type who is into finding
acts and signing them and you know, doing whatever they do.
So she wants to get John Repinhood to come down

(39:12):
and you know, show his stuff so he can go
pro with his rappin' and Iced Tea is part of
this talent show, right, He's on stage doing this killer
song I wrote down sign Iced Tea. He's gonna be
big someday. Hey, hey, executive guy. And he's kind of
like he's like shoulders shrugging about it. Do you remember that?
He's like, yeah, he's all right the fuck.

Speaker 1 (39:34):
So obviously, if you watched the whole Talent show, it
was the best song I wrote down Ice Team. Maybe
he could say the movie the song was decent, right.
I said this one sounded more like an Iced Tea
song because it was called killer, so it sounded like
an early Iced Ta song. Right. Okay, However, why is
there a dude I'm laugh I'm laughing ahout reading this.

(39:59):
Why is there a dude karate chopping karate chopping the
keyboard with with an AK forty seven Because it's the eighties,
so his keyboard the eighties, bro is karate chopping the
keyboard with an AK forty seven sitting next to it, Like,
what's happening here? A white dude at that?

Speaker 3 (40:18):
Yeah, well, you know, baby wild.

Speaker 1 (40:20):
What's happening is? What's happening here?

Speaker 3 (40:25):
I can't even did, I have no thought, I have
no idea, man. All I guess say is it's the eighties.
They just like combined a bunch of stuff that eighties was. Yeah,
let's let's just you know, wreck havoc during his talent show,
how did.

Speaker 1 (40:36):
You feel about the song? Like, what did you think
about Ice Tea song? You know what?

Speaker 3 (40:39):
It felt like? It felt like the song he had
to make so that he could become the Iced Tea
that we know because the dude from Breaking and Breaking
two apparently he was an adult also, and in this
there was like a if you remember a little bit,
there was like a gradual change, like the content of
his lyrics were a little bit. I guess that's one
thing that you could point out in these break movies,

(41:00):
you see the the evolution of Iced Tea, because by
the time this movie comes out, he's doing a song
called Killers, like whoa, whoa? Right, this is this is
a fun musical movie where people have like eyeliner on
and rapping, what are you doing? And like, yeah, next
thing you know, he's o G. It's six in the morning,
he's doing all that stuff.

Speaker 1 (41:17):
So I almost I almost feel like with you saying that,
I feel like maybe they allowed him to have some
space on this song and write his own song when
the other ones, like the glove and the rapidly rap ones,
I feel like, yeah, that was him, But I feel
he was always a street dude, so he kind of
was able to showcase who he's about to be. That's
a good point you make there.

Speaker 3 (41:36):
Yeah, and I don't remember because my notes are all
over the place of Force m D's were part of
the same scene or was it later on when they
did their song Itching for Scratchers. I knew that song already,
I have that record. I knew that song.

Speaker 1 (41:47):
That is my next note. So it was during this
talent showcase, I said, signed them with the classic exactly
the seem that seem was dope. So uh, the judges
did not like Force m D's or who were the
most talented of the talent show So then hoods Rep.
We can talk about that because that was the next

(42:07):
part of the show.

Speaker 3 (42:08):
There is a connection to Crush Groove. For some d's
have that song tender Love in crush Groove, so maybe
I feel like they're borrowing notes or something. I think
when Krushgroove wrote their script, they threw some papers on
the floor, and whoever did this movie pick those up
and said, oh, I got a movie here, and then
it stole for m d's to be in this.

Speaker 1 (42:28):
We'd have to check the full credits and see who produced,
like both movies. I mean, we'd have to check all
the liner notes. But I definitely feel some kind of
connection between Crush Groove and this.

Speaker 3 (42:38):
Like you said, I know the guy who did car
Washed at Crushgroove. I forget his name, but he's the
director of both movies, so he had done a bunch
of stuff, so he wasn't like just some some hack.
But whoever did this is because I don't know his name,
doesn't matter. It's Cannon Films. They probably put some money
into it, but most of them went into like mar
Vin Peebles's you know wardrobe and the ballet scenes. I

(43:01):
thought it was symbolic about this movie was so the
big real estate guy has like this this guy who
does not all the work for him, and he's driving
his red I don't know, the saber or something whatever
the car was. There's a scene where Eric Leasal and
Kadeem Hardison's characters jump on the hood, not rapping Hood,
but the hood of the car and they crashed into
a garbage truck. And I was like, this is symbolic

(43:23):
of what this movie is. This is garbage. They crashed
into a garbage truck. You get ended it right.

Speaker 1 (43:28):
There, complete garbage, as you say on the Infinite Banter.

Speaker 3 (43:33):
Exactly there you go.

Speaker 1 (43:35):
I think that scene was probably the best. I mean,
I don't want to pick a best scene, but I
would say the iced t Force MD's scene was the best,
which it was only about two minutes. Yeah, that was
good because right after that they'd bring it right back
to the garbage can with Hood Robin Hood rapping, Hood
rapping to the drunk guy and the bartender who were fighting. Wow,

(43:58):
that was complete garbage. Oh yeah, so that's how he
got his deal. So the bartender starts fighting with a
drunk guy who wants more drinks or something, and then
Rapping Hood steps to them and starts rapping to them
to tell him.

Speaker 3 (44:15):
To break up the fight, and he and he does it.
They don't fight anymore.

Speaker 1 (44:21):
Now.

Speaker 3 (44:21):
The best part about that is, like it's it's two
white guys and one guy's I think both of them
are drunk, so they probably thought he was doing good
rapping too, like, well, well he shouldn't fight anymore. This
guy's rapping to us. I don't remember, like it was
long too. He was doing it for like at least
thirty seconds. So yeah, you know, this guy is such
a great freestyler. I mean, he's he was supernatural of

(44:43):
the eighties, right, he was the he was the juice.

Speaker 1 (44:46):
The juice, he got the juice.

Speaker 3 (44:47):
Yeah, well, much superior film than juice in this thing, right,
speaking of eighties, is it just me to the bad
guy look like Andrew dice Clay with that leather coat
and the hair.

Speaker 1 (44:59):
Are you reading my notes? Is the question?

Speaker 3 (45:01):
Oh shit, you got the same one?

Speaker 1 (45:02):
Because yeah, and then I put the leather coat dude,
because it's funny. I'm happy that you didn't remember anyone's
name because I also didn't remember anyone's name. I said,
the leather code, dude is hilarious. He's not only looks funny,
but he's just the whole his whole persona, and the
way he talks, the way he speaks is just it's
like a he needs to be a comedian because that
guy is awesome.

Speaker 3 (45:21):
I don't want to spoil it, but later on, like
when the movie's almost over, basically he has the worst part.
You'll you'll, we'll talk about it later. I want to
tease that because it's it's coming up. Yeah, he has
a talking quotation work segment that I got to talk
about later. By the way, that red car that crashes
into the garbage truck, it's destroyed, but he's still driving it.

(45:44):
This guy, I'm thinking, like, no insurance, they didn't have
progressive in the eighties. Like he didn't get it fixed, nothing,
Like they didn't do anything to fix it. But that
little dude steals the car stereo and ah, here's where
the movie really starts to not get that interesting, but
this is what the point of the movie is, right,
he steals the radio. He sells it to some guy
and I don't know where the hell he is across

(46:05):
the railroad tracks for seventy five bucks, And wow, boy
does a movie really sore after that?

Speaker 1 (46:12):
I don't know if I just stopped taking notes, but
there was a long time where I just kind of
sat there and just watched. I don't know if I
was getting bored or if I was really feeling the
torture at that point, but my I didn't have any
notes about that, but I do remember my next note
wasn't until he was in the studio. He didn't.

Speaker 3 (46:31):
I mean, no, you already have a Let's just be honest,
real the amount of notes you've already done. And I've
been talking for almost forty minutes here, I mean, congratulations
for you even have done this work. It's like it
was easy to check out of this thing. I would
say like this. I don't mean it literally here, but
like the first twenty minutes I could see like being

(46:53):
somewhat watchable right to an extent. But man, when it
gets to that like forty five minute, like the halfway, man,
I just wanted to like I could think of many laundry,
Like there's so many things I wanted to do that
wasn't this anymore. It was just so dumb.

Speaker 1 (47:13):
Yeah, it was rough. I couldn't even I couldn't even
play my phone and like look at Instagram or anything,
because I was taking notes on my phone, so that
made it even worse, so I couldn't even, like, you know,
look at something else, but I was focused.

Speaker 2 (47:26):
Man.

Speaker 1 (47:27):
So anyways, my next note was he's in the studio,
so he got that deal. And at that point I
can hear That's when I noticed this sounds like someone.
That's when I heard Master G's boys, and I see
that's when I saw him lip syncing. If you look
at that scene, you can actually see his mouth is
not perfect to the timing of the words. I don't

(47:48):
know if you noticed that or not.

Speaker 3 (47:49):
I mean I probably should have noticed it, but you know,
I was like doing what you were doing. First of all,
salute your effort for using your phone, which made you
focus on it. I was writing down on a piece
of paper, so therefore, oh wow, you know, I'm writing
stuff and I'm not looking at the TV screen, which
was kind of like my way of kind of half
watching this thing. So so I probably missed the lip
wrapping rep repping hood.

Speaker 1 (48:11):
And what I noticed about it is that that's why
they were showing his brother getting locked up. So like
you're just talking about the next scene, he's you know,
he sold the radio to the pawn shop, and next
thing you know, he's getting locked up. And that's when
they show Rappin Hood in the studio going to get
his one hundred dollars or whatever they're paying him. And

(48:32):
they continue to show his brother getting locked up as
opposed to showing Rappin Hood rapping. And that's why because
he was lip syncing.

Speaker 3 (48:39):
I still don't really understand what the point was. So
Rappin Hood went to the guy who bought the stereo
that the kids stole and said, I'll sell it back
to for two fifty and then Repin Hood had to
find two hundred and fifty dollars and then the wrap
battle whatever he did in the bar. If he did
that on a demo, the record guy was gonna pay
him two hundred dollars. And then he got that two

(48:59):
hundred dollars, he was going to buy the stereo back.
But the stereo is gone. I don't understand why this
stereo mattered like it was going to save the neighborhood. Like,
I don't why do they need this fucking stereo? What
kind of stereo did this guy have in this like
super ru or whatever he crashed into the garbage truck
that was gonna save the hood.

Speaker 1 (49:15):
Why was it so important two hundred and fifty dollars.
I mean that can get you a nice stereo. I
think what I would like to say about Rapping Hood.
I want to give him some props. Man. You know why,
because he is a real I can't even know what
I'm saying this. I'm trying to say this with a
straight face. Rapping Hood is a real street dude. He
doesn't care about his rap career. He does not care

(49:38):
about it. They were about to sign him to a
major contract. He took the money and he said, give
me that cash money, I'm out of here. Man. He
didn't go pro. He didn't go pro. No, he did
not go pro. Man.

Speaker 3 (49:49):
He played for them the ABA or the Developmental League. Okay,
wait a minute, that's that's the best note. I don't
even I don't have that. I didn't see that real he.

Speaker 1 (50:01):
Turned He turned down that contract to save the neighborhood. Man,
he said, I don't care about a rap career. You
got my bars, take them and release them right and
make make millions like they did off a grand Master Kaz.
Make millions and don't pay him shit.

Speaker 3 (50:14):
You know what I didn't. Yeah, man, Well because you're you,
you have that foresight because you're not you know, you're
paying attention. So okay, man, that that shows how how
how really was right because he was trying to get
this car stereo is trying to He just wanted to
make a couple of dollars. He didn't care what they
do with those lyrics, those verses. He wasn't into the
music game. He didn't care about any of that. He

(50:36):
just wanted this chick.

Speaker 1 (50:37):
Yeah, and back then he was one of those rappers
who rapped for the love like a lot of cas
did back in the day. Appearing on Wild Style, appearing
on B Street and probably making no money because the
Hollywood and the record labels ripped them off. That was
kind of a little nod to that in my opinion, Like,
I mean, I know they weren't going for that, but
it just it kind of showcased that how the eighties
a lot of rappers got robbed, and Rappinghood was one

(50:58):
of them.

Speaker 3 (50:58):
So my my question is did they do that intentionally
or is that just kind of happened without their writing,
Like was that even a thing they were conscious of
when they put this together because I didn't catch it. Okay,
I was trying.

Speaker 1 (51:12):
I was getting so bored, man, I was getting so
bored that I had to dive deep into the meaning
of this movie. And that's what I got out of it.

Speaker 3 (51:18):
I mean, maybe Master g told them stories about how
they stole Grand Master Cas. I didn't steal it. I
guess they just took everything from it and made a
song and made you know, you know, big record with it,
and they're like, hey, you know, guys, you made this movie.
I want you to do this idea. This guy doesn't
want to do it. He just wants some cash to
buy stuff. Okay, that to save the hood. Oh man,
you might have gave this thing one less garbage can

(51:40):
at the end of this see when I when I
rate this thing, it actually might get a favorable review.
That's pretty good. That's a pretty cool thing. This is
a total random note here. What's with the orange cushion headphones.
Everybody's wearing them, the big orange cushion headphones. I don't
remember having those.

Speaker 1 (51:57):
I think was that in the studio scene.

Speaker 3 (52:01):
All the studio scenes, they had like these orange puffy headphones.
Any times when was recording something for this this goofball,
they all had the orange headphones.

Speaker 1 (52:09):
Yeah, I would say that back then that was probably
the technology of the headphones. I mean, I was too
young to be in the studio back then, and we
weren't in the radio scene yet, but that would be
my guess is yeah, they probably that's probably what was
out back then for the studio headphones. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (52:24):
Just for some reason, just like caught my eye, I'm like, wow,
those are really fat and orange, Like what are those things?
The puffy part, not the actual headphone, just like that
that phone part that goes around it. I wrote down
because later on, there's like a card game I put
worst card game ever, Like, so the bad guy, Dice
Clay looking dude, he's like pulling out cards and somehow
that decides the fate of rapping hood or something. I

(52:47):
don't know what the hell was happening, but he's sitting
in his room with you know, no furniture and whatever.

Speaker 1 (52:53):
I have the same note. I have the same note.
The card scene was so corny. Number one. He pulls
out the number one think and he says, I want
to fight you. These eighties gangs. I also, I haven't
know these eighties gangs are super friendly and night. Oh yeah,
is this how Pittsburgh? Is this how Pittsburgh gangs were
back then?

Speaker 3 (53:08):
There was no knife, nothing they pulled out.

Speaker 1 (53:10):
They pulled out cards to warn him, and like, what's
happening right now?

Speaker 3 (53:13):
He's like gambit like throwing cards. He didn't pull out
like a switch blade. He didn't even have like a
tonaio clip or nothing. All he has is cards. And
of course who's the king? Who or the ace? Which
one did he pull out for himself? Should have been free?
I don't know what the joker the joker card?

Speaker 1 (53:28):
Yeah, it's so stupid. My next note says, this is
a funny note because it says a long time. There's
been a long time with no rapping or singing. So
I'm starting to get bored now. I thought this was
a musical.

Speaker 3 (53:41):
They they gave you the bad rapping at the beginning,
and then halfway through you're like, you kind of missed
the bad rapping because it turned into I'm doing quotation
marks a movie Like they tried to have a plot
and tried to do things, and instead the movie is
called rapping. It's maybe like twelve percent rapping. The rest
of it is just hot garbage plot. There is a

(54:02):
and again a lot of quotation marks here a funny
scene with the hooker because they they shut off the
gas so nobody has heat in the Reppin Hood, and
so some hooker. I don't know how they I wrote
on how do they plan this? The gas The guy
has a gas truck, he's taken the gas out. I
don't know what the hell's happening. And she comes over

(54:23):
with her like Edith, prickly cheetah coat and looking like
a hooker, and unsurprised by the way for a hood,
this is the first hooker we've seen in like fifty minutes.
That's not much of a hood, by the way, nobody
dealing drugs, nothing. And she comes up to this fat
dude who's got the gas truck, and he's like, oh,
do it. She gets them inside of some apartment. I

(54:44):
wrote down worst sex scene in cinema history, and the
the Rappin Hood guys, they steal the gas truck to
put gas in the home so they have heat while
this woman is seducing this guy.

Speaker 1 (54:58):
Okay, so you got I'm glad that you took all
the hooker notes. I always do because my notes are
are less about her and more about the gasoline that
powers people's heat. So I wrote down like, I don't know.
I'm not from Pittsburgh. I'm from Chicago. But since when

(55:18):
does gasoline power people's heat in their houses? I mean,
I don't know if this is a Pittsburgh thing. I mean,
you've been to my house. We have radiators in the
old Chicago houses. That is run by natural gas, not
like gas that runs your car. So I don't want
to judge the gas that Pittsburgh uses, but if anybody

(55:39):
can hit me up and let me know, I could
be wrong. I don't know, what do you think about that? Yeah?
It was a gas right.

Speaker 3 (55:45):
Like it looked like there was a gas tank car
and I you know, that just had so many notes.
I've got how do they plan this caper? Like they
sit there. They didn't show that scene where it's okay,
they're gonna be gas. Then they just showed a hooker
and some guy, and I'm supposed to put the pieces together
in my head like, okay, so what's happening. They're stealing
the true and they're giving gas to everybody or fuel
the heat. It's very very bizarre.

Speaker 1 (56:06):
That's so dangerous is just like pouring gas. I mean,
I don't know.

Speaker 3 (56:10):
And these kids not a drive apparently, because you haven't
seen them drive a car to a whole movie, So
somebody there has a license, apparently. I do have one
nice thing to say about this this movie. Here, there's
a scene where the girl and rappin hood. Because I've
done this myself personally, so I got to shout it out.
You can go up on this mountain or hill and
you can see Pittsburgh from it. It's like a scenic view.

Speaker 1 (56:29):
Now.

Speaker 3 (56:29):
It's Pittsburgh from eighty five, so it looks a lot
different now than it does then. But I've been up
there and it's a really awesome thing to stand up
there and you're standing on this hill and you can
see the entire downtown area from above. So they have
that scene in there, so shout out to them.

Speaker 1 (56:43):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (56:44):
Cinematographer Guy's like, hey, I just gotta get one good
scene in this movie. So there you go.

Speaker 1 (56:50):
I'm glad you found something positive. Man, that's awesome.

Speaker 3 (56:52):
And then here's something not positive. One of the goons
had a Confederate flag on his coat. I was like, oh, yikes,
Like the jean jacket. He had like a big Confederate flag.
So I don't know if he was a good guy
or a bad guy, but he should have been a
shark or a jet. I don't know which one that is.

Speaker 1 (57:07):
But and this is the part where the movie gets interesting. Yeah,
I think that's when the gang started trashing, trashing the neighborhood. Right,
they come in and just start tearing shit up, And
my thought is are there any cops in this town?

Speaker 3 (57:25):
I mean, but they show up eventually, right.

Speaker 1 (57:30):
At least, And I also made a note at least
the gang is finally being tough for once. They're finally
being tough, so that was good to see.

Speaker 3 (57:36):
Yeah, there's a fight there that happens near like a
dumpster in some area where you know, gentrification hasn't happened yet.
And I wrote down, looks like beat It again. It's
another beat It fights. You know, guys are kind of
jumping on each other and kind of punching. It's not
it's I mean, I watched wrestling, so I know a
choreographed fighting looks like and this is definitely choreographed to

(57:56):
a full extent. And one guy looks like Michael Jackson. Dude,
there's like, there's a bad guy who looks like Michael Jackson.
He might moonwalk. I don't know. If he does a
moonwalk and then punch a guy, I don't know what happens.

Speaker 1 (58:07):
But you know what, going back because I missed a no,
going back to your beautiful scene of Pittsburgh. There was
a scene where his girlfriend asks him, why waste your talent?
Did you see that bar? Yeah?

Speaker 3 (58:21):
I do remember that he.

Speaker 1 (58:22):
Knows he doesn't and I never wrote down he knows
he doesn't have any talent. That's why I just end
up bring that one up.

Speaker 3 (58:27):
So that kind of debunks what you said earlier about
he had talent. He just wasn't looking to commercialize his talent.
So I'm not sure they both can't be true, can they?
Or can they? He thinks he thinks he has talent,
but he doesn't have talent. But everybody who is judging
him thinks he has talent. But if they were to
release it, he would have been a joke. So we're man,

(58:48):
we're getting to the end of the movie here. Man,
there's a town hall meeting or something. I don't really
know what's going on, some sort of debate about the
real estate guy taking over the neighborhood, and he comes
in and wraps his way into the hearts of the
city council. Even the old white guy is off beat
clapping his hands to this, wrapping them, and he won
the court hearing because of it. I think Diddy should

(59:09):
do this because he could wrap us as bad as
these guys. Go out there, puff daddy, rap about you
know you didn't really do all the oil and all
that stuff. And do this in front of, like, you know,
some Republican white guys, and they'll start clapping for you
off b and you might win. That's what I learned
from this movie.

Speaker 1 (59:23):
Oh my god, I wrote down at that court scene.
I wrote down cringe times ten. If only, like you
just said, if only it was that easy to wrap
out a town hall meeting and conquer big corporations, we'd
all be doing it, because me and you can wrap
just as bad as that man.

Speaker 3 (59:40):
I'm saying it's it works, though they got turned on,
which they didn't need to have turned on because they
already turned it on because it thinks it a hooker.
I don't know. I don't really I don't really know what.
I still don't know what happened to a car stereo.
By the way, where is the car stereo? I'm still
waiting for that payoff with the literal payoff.

Speaker 1 (59:57):
There's one line that I didn't want to skip, not
to go back to that. I don't know what this
line where this line was, but the line was so corny.
The dude said, did you tell your mother not to
set your plate for dinner because you won't be home
for dinner? Yeah? I remember that scene. I didn't want
to miss that note because that was hilarious.

Speaker 3 (01:00:16):
I mean, snap, I mean he felt that one. I mean,
that's one of those He didn't have a comeback for it.
He had nothing to say, you won't be home for dinner,
but of course there's no gas in the ovens, so
you can't cook anything. He should have been like, well, actually,
because you're working for the guy who don't off the heat,
you know, gas can't cook anything for reading out boom,
punch him in the face, you know something like that, Right,
it's just stupid. We're going to RBS.

Speaker 1 (01:00:37):
Wow.

Speaker 3 (01:00:38):
Then the the I'm there in the street and the
record guy, I guess signs him to a contract based
on his city council rap attack I don't know what
a wrap in there. And he did sell out at
the end, real eventually he did, And that was.

Speaker 1 (01:00:53):
A super shady deal. You already know that. That was
probably the shadiest deal in rap history. I all know that.

Speaker 3 (01:01:00):
And the paper was white. I didn't see I was
trying to read, like what what what the terms were?
I could read anything. It just said John repinhood, like
I didn't see anything else when he signed it.

Speaker 1 (01:01:09):
So so I'm reading my notes and it says where's
the rap, and like you said, it's coming back.

Speaker 3 (01:01:16):
Oh man, it's coming.

Speaker 1 (01:01:17):
So I wanted more rap now. I wanted to stop
my ears hurt when I'm done watching this, said. My
note says, when I'm done watching this, I need to
go listen to some Houdini and run DMC you.

Speaker 3 (01:01:28):
Go real eighty five rap, not this. Yeah, yeah, I wrote,
I wrote down. This keeps getting worse because everybody in
the movie gets a verse in the song that they
perform after he signs a contract. I wrote down fat
joke number five in the credits, so they make fun
of the fat guy again. But here's the worst. Everybody's bad.
It gets worse and worse and worse. Although the little

(01:01:48):
dude I think was okay. Like that's why I said
this is where I think he kind of showed Master
G's little brother, the white bad guy. I think his
name is Duwayne, the coat guy. He has a part
oh boy, and they have like a country Twain sound
going on when he's when he's rapping two.

Speaker 1 (01:02:08):
Boy? Is that dude? I have the same note. The
white dude villain named Dwayne is wrapping out here sounding
worse than rapping Duke over a country beat.

Speaker 3 (01:02:18):
It's it's the first version of kid rock.

Speaker 1 (01:02:22):
I mean, And how racist did this last scene get with? Like,
let's make this white guy wrap over country, Let's make
this Asian guy, this Chinese guy rap over a Chinese sound? Man?
I mean it was so corny. I mean I was
on the ground. I was rolling, dude, I was rolling
out loud, laughing. Man. Literally, it was classic shit.

Speaker 3 (01:02:43):
I just wrote down twice it keeps getting worse. Make
it stop.

Speaker 1 (01:02:47):
Oh I think I also wrote that down. I said,
please make it stop. I'm done with this crap. Where's
rapping Rodney? I wrote down, Oh, how about the old
lady rapping? How about the old lady rapping? That was awesome.

Speaker 3 (01:02:58):
Oh yeah, she the grandma right, and the Italian guy
with the hot dog stand or whatever. I'm surprised he wasn't, like,
you know, doing something that was very Italian. I don't
remember his verse actually, Yeah. And then the credits song switches.
It becomes a different song, which is actually worse than
this one. It's like a produced, you know, studio song,

(01:03:18):
and I don't know what it was about. I just like,
whow more awful than what I has heard.

Speaker 1 (01:03:23):
Oh it's funny because I was hoping the credits would
have like Force MDS or another iced T song that
would be good. Nope, and it just got worse. Man,
Just when you thought it couldn't get worse, it sure did.

Speaker 3 (01:03:34):
Yeah, dude, this is so. That's the movie man Rappin',
the movie that you and I have never seen all
these years. I mean we're old enough to have seen it,
if not when it came out at least a year
or two after. And I'm just surprised it's never popped
up on TBS or on cable to where I saw
it and said watched it. It just never happened. I
never cared.

Speaker 1 (01:03:51):
I'm surprised. Yeah, I'm not surprised because it's so bad
that they would never show that crap.

Speaker 3 (01:03:55):
Let's be honest, Creppin, Creppin, Creppin crepin Hood. So you know,
you already know because I do this thing. You've heard
so many of these. I give the garbage can rating.
So five garbage cans is you know, it's it's the worst,
it's a terrible piece of shit. One garbage can means
it's not that bad. It's actually tolerable. And you know,
kind of go from there. It's like the reverse of

(01:04:16):
five mics. It's like, in opposite order, five is bad.
In this case, man, I'm gonna go ahead and rate
it four and a half. And I was gonna say five,
but because you told me about the idea that he
wasn't a sellout, although he did at the end, but
at least he held his ground for most of the movie,
so I'm gonna give him credit for that. And iced
tea is in it for sim D's there's like maybe

(01:04:38):
three minutes of stuff in here you can watch and enjoy.

Speaker 1 (01:04:40):
So four and a half, okay, I like your rating,
very good, very strong rating. Now I'm gonna give you
two ratings. Is that okay? I don't know.

Speaker 3 (01:04:48):
Yeah, yeah, no, go ahead, your guest man. You do
whatever you want, man.

Speaker 1 (01:04:51):
So what I would like to say is I have
one rating. That is if I wasn't a hip hop head, right, okay,
so if I was just a general audience, now your
listening audience, if I'm not a hip hop head, I
give it three out of five cans. Okay, okay, so
still bad now, so still bad. Three out of five. However,
from a hip hop purist DJ Reel one standpoint, I

(01:05:14):
give this five out of five.

Speaker 3 (01:05:15):
Can damn full full garbage can? Yes, yeah, it's four.

Speaker 1 (01:05:21):
It's yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:05:22):
I told you like that crash into the garbage truck
was that was to me? That was that should have
been on the poster?

Speaker 1 (01:05:28):
Yeah right?

Speaker 3 (01:05:30):
Rapping, yeah right right, yeah dude. I I I wanted
to give it five, but I've seen worse stuff than this.
As bad as this is, this is not the worst
thing I've watched for this segment, so I can't. I
can't quite put it there yet. Yeah, maybe it'll get
there if I ever watch this again. Maybe, or maybe
I'll just like it, you know. I like the rapping
in the hooker scene and the in the you know

(01:05:51):
whatever else happened that I forgot about already.

Speaker 1 (01:05:54):
Well, like I said that that is strictly from a
purest standpoint, but from like a non hip hop head.
Three out of five. So, like you said, it's not
the worst, but from someone who loves this culture, like
this movie disrespected the culture to the fullest, with the
exception of like you said, iced Tea and four MP's.
But I still recommend people to watch it just for

(01:06:16):
the comical aspect of it and if you enjoy and
if you enjoy bad crappy eightes movies, this is it
right here. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:06:23):
It's like you know, saying you ate something that you'll
never eat again, Like I tried it once, I'll never
go there again. Like, it's like that kind of thing.
You should try it knowing that you probably won't like it,
but just so that you can say you did because
everybody else, well, no, nobody's talked about this movie. I
should take that back. Nobody's talking about it. So now
you have something to say, Hey, here see rapping and
tell them it's good and then make them watch it. Ahaha.
Jokes on you, Jack April Fools. Yeah, there you go.

(01:06:48):
Oh man. Real, First of all, I'm sorry you did this,
but thanks for doing it, and I appreciate you putting
in the effort for this horrible, horrible movie.

Speaker 1 (01:06:57):
It's funny, man, because I heard you did a couple
with Tonio and also you did a.

Speaker 3 (01:07:06):
Review with a rhinoceros funk. We did Cocaine Bear and
Cruel Jaws or a couple of real stinkers of course.

Speaker 1 (01:07:14):
Yeah, and it's it's always fun. Shout out Rhinoceros funk.
It's always fun to watch these, I should say, to
listen to your reviews knowing that you've seen the movie already.
So when you did the Cocaine Bear, that was fun. Yeah.
So I appreciate you having me on. Thank you so much.

Speaker 3 (01:07:29):
Yeah, man, And like I said in the last episode,
I hope people watch the movie before. I think it's
better if you've seen it already because you know what
we're talking about. But maybe hearing this, you were shitting
on the movie almost the entire time, but maybe maybe
you might want to still see when I want to
see how bad it. It can't be that bad. It's
that bad though, right, but you know, but what's not
bad is DJ real One killing it on YouTube and

(01:07:52):
doing things. Go ahead and promote anything you want to
let them know about so they don't just think that
you're all about watching bad shit, that you actually do
some some productive things in your life.

Speaker 1 (01:08:01):
Thank you. Man. Now, if you guys want to watch
some good shit and some good content, check me out
on YouTube. DJ real one so DJ reel one on YouTube.
That's where I'm at these days. I've been coming up
with some live mixes, just getting back into the DJing.
I've been kind of having fun with it DJ and
live sets, reviewing beers, unboxing records, just having fun with it. Man.

(01:08:26):
And for those of you that like my production and
my music, stay tuned. I will be working on something
hopefully in twenty twenty five, but for now, come join
me on my YouTube party.

Speaker 3 (01:08:37):
Let's go there it is man, you've been killing it
on those Fridays. And I know, man, you've been doing
the nineties steam and the eighties steam. And maybe you'll
do a bad movie soundtrack team or something. Actually, you
could do moving songs from Breaking and Crush Groove and
stuff like that and it would actually be good, you know. Yeah,
nothing from this though, I don't, I don't think exactly.
I mean, it's for scratch is not terrible, but I

(01:08:58):
don't know how. It's kind of dated. Man, be hard
for you to I don't know how you work that
into a mix, dude, it'd be a tough one. But man, thanks, Yeah, yeah,
right stayed.

Speaker 1 (01:09:07):
A song from Rapid Rapping rapping.

Speaker 3 (01:09:12):
Man, So it was complete garbage. Yeah, it definitely was
repping hood. I couldn't stop saying that after watching a
movie because I feel like they kept saying it.

Speaker 1 (01:09:21):
Like I said, as soon as I get off this
phone call, I will be turning on some even fat
boys run on my way to work. Man.

Speaker 3 (01:09:28):
Yeah, Man, play that real shit. You know, go play
Utfo or something. If you want to go back to
eighty five, you know, play Lotty Dotty or something. It's
almost got to cleanse yourself. You need like a flush
of this out of your system and you go back
to eighty five. Play King of Rock, fat Boys are back,
you know whatever came out in that era. Definitely go
get that out of your system. Man, big up for
doing this real. I know you got real things to

(01:09:49):
do and this now you're done. You can throw those
notes and burn them. You can move on with your
life from rapping hood.

Speaker 1 (01:09:56):
Yes, sir man, thanks for doing this.

Speaker 3 (01:09:58):
Due appreciate you man, And yeah, this movie splete.

Speaker 1 (01:10:00):
Garbage, complete trash, complete garbage.

Speaker 3 (01:10:03):
By the way, I couldn't uh not play this little
part here, So when I called my man DJ reel One,
as I do with a lot of guests, we talked
for a few minutes before the actual official start of
whatever I'm getting ready to do with them is recorded
and played here on the podcast. And you know, I
was I was acting a damn full because I was
giddy as hell to talk about this movie, even though

(01:10:23):
I think it's garbage. I was like in a weird
mood because it was so bad that I couldn't stop,
you know, talking like the movie. So here's a little
little extra snippet of something from my chatting with DJ
reel One.

Speaker 1 (01:10:36):
Here.

Speaker 3 (01:10:36):
If you hadn't had enough of torture, you're about to
get a little little bit more. It's only about a minute,
so don't worry. This is not a lot, but it
was too fun to leave on the cutting room floor.
So here's extra torture, torture, overtime, sudden death torture. Here
The Infinite Banter Podcast a right going on rapping hood

(01:10:57):
right Rapp fucking stupid and shit ever, dude.

Speaker 1 (01:11:02):
Oh man, bro, I can't believe I actually watched that.
That's crazy.

Speaker 3 (01:11:07):
Yeah, I got a three hour window on Sunday, like
I gotta I gotta repping, wrap this ship up and
watching bullshit because to be kept telling me I only
had five days to watch it because it was gonna
leave the site. Why why they would get rid of
this gem is beyond me.

Speaker 1 (01:11:27):
To be the place for infinite tortures, place to be
for repping.

Speaker 3 (01:11:33):
I can't stop talking like that. So congratulations, you've made
it this far. You've gotten through an hour of talking
about the movie Rapping. I didn't want to say how
long it was for that segment beforehand because maybe some
of you would not listen. So yeah, it was a
lot to talk about, and we got talked about more
if we if we wanted to, but go check out Rapping,

(01:11:54):
if you could feel the torture that we felt checking
that out. Definitely appreciate all of you who's stuck through
this thing and made it through it. It's definitely one
of those movies that I can say I've seen. That's
about it. Make sure you check out DJ reel one
on social media and check out his YouTube page teaching
you guys how to drink and what to drink. It's

(01:12:17):
probably been a better way of doing it. What to
drink and how to drink it. He's big on the
Belgium Bruise. I've got some of those glasses back from
when I would drink with him back in the day.
You buy yourself the specific glass design for the specific
alcohol you're drinking. Get your game up. You're older now
as I am, and make sure you're drinking the good
premium alcohol. No more Budweiser and Miller. Do it the

(01:12:38):
right way. Get yourself from Belgium brew. And check out
his YouTube channel where he has videos dedicated to different
Belgium bruis and he shows you how he makes beats,
and he's got mixed shows that he does on there,
live and everything. Definitely go check my man out DJ
reel one on YouTube. And I'm sorry I took away
two hours of his time with this nonsense called rapidy rapping.

(01:13:01):
All right, stay tuned, we're gonna wrap up the show here,
talk about the new album from a Vase. It's about
to rain. Stay tuned. My review of that album's coming up.

Speaker 1 (01:13:08):
Yeah, y'all.

Speaker 2 (01:13:09):
What us right here with DJ sound Waves.

Speaker 1 (01:13:11):
Check out the Infinite Banter but row hip hop mana
from Miami three oh five, but this hip hop shit
is Global man from heavywhere Man.

Speaker 3 (01:13:21):
You're checking out the Infinite Banter podcast. And as I
t's earlier in the show, we're gonna do an album
review from my Many vese The album is called It's
About to Rain, produced by DJ Proof. Eves has been
in the show multiple times, so definitely people who listening
to this show should remember Eves and if we check
him out, he's got some great projects over the years.
Check out his band camp. He's got albums on there.

(01:13:43):
You could check out Salute to My Many Vase. And
let's just get into the album here. It's called It's
About to Rain. Twelve tracks total, and the first track
is a clip of Matthew McConaughey from True Detective. I
mean I heard it. You know, I'm a Matthew McConaughey guy.
People who know me, No, that's one of my guys.
That's my dude. And if I see he's in a
movie or something, I will watch it. I've even seen

(01:14:03):
some of the romantic comedies he's done, so that's my guy.
As soon as I heard his voice, I'm like, Okay,
what's Eva's doing here when mamor Matthew McConaughey on this
opening track, But definitely it sets up The track is
called This Universe, and it sets up the album. It's
a very personal album, a lot of introspective feeling towards it,
and that's definitely what I got out of hearing it.
The second track where my Lighter Ats, really helped set

(01:14:25):
up the tone of the album as far as musically so.
The McConaughey opening one kind of sets up the feeling
of it. I feel like this one sets up what
you're going to get into with the music and the
lyrics and the production of it. Track three one of
my favorite tracks on here, put one in the Air
really dope. I love the vocal sample in it, and
Eve's definitely has a good way of writing this beat here.

(01:14:48):
You could start to tell that, you know, he's kind
of going through some stuff that he's talking about from
the past and pouring it out in the pen and
this album is reflection on that. And the fourth track
here is called Circa ninety two and this one right
here he's talking about the old days. I stuff the
from that era. You know, he grew up in the
eighties and the nineties, but specifically here in nineteen ninety two.
A lot of the things he's referencing in here you

(01:15:09):
will definitely remember and I'll bring back a lot of
nostalgia and memories for you, So salute to him. Get
into track five. This song right here is called Heart
of a Glacier, one of my favorite tracks as well.
A lot of boom bat drums on here, and the
bars are heavy on this one. I feel like this
is a good, like kind of middle of the album song.
You know, a lot of us old heads, you know,
we just like that head nod shit, and when this

(01:15:30):
one comes on, you start to get into it, like okay,
all right, let's go. And his lyrics, you know, he
definitely bar heavy on this one. Salutes EVAs. I definitely
feel that track a lot. Number six is one that
really stuck out as well. It's called Abomination, and the
piano sample in there and has like a Halloween like
sinister feel to it is really, you know, really kind
of kind of grimy and has that feel of like

(01:15:53):
something sinister going on. I really like this track a
lot so abomination, one of my favorite tracks in Areon
And I said this for in this podcast. You have
a piano in a song, it just catches my ear.
That's why someone like Pete Rock always grabs me because
I love piano in my music without a doubt. Track eight,
Morning Fog. A lot of features on this one, mister
Personal and blackout might be my favorite beat on the album.

(01:16:15):
It's definitely a highlight track for me. Morning Fog. So
he checked this album out. This is definitely one of
those that you're gonna go back to a lot. Morning
Fog from Evase track number eight, Track number nine, She
Probably Don't Exist, And this one right here we could
all relate to, you know, any of us who've had
some women issues in in the past, you know, some
relationship problems, somebody maybe give you a hard time. Took

(01:16:37):
me back to my single life and my dating days,
you know, trying to figure out what I'm gonna do next.
You know this dating scene. This track really, you know,
stands out kind of brought back some good and bad
memories of that era, you know, because we all struggle
with that until you finally find somebody you end up
marrying and you have kids with but even then, you
know things can change. So this track right here, she

(01:16:57):
probably don't exist. Track nine definitely speaks on that. A
lot of you listening, you'll probably understand what he's going
through when you hear him talking on that song. Track ten,
No Matter What real inspirational. This track and a lot
of the album sounds like he went through a lot,
and there's an audience for this message here, So people
listening when you get to this track, I feel like

(01:17:17):
a lot of the listeners are gonna hear this and
they're gonna get some motivation, some inspiration from what Evade
is pouring out into this track here called No Matter What.
Track ten. Getting close to the end of the album,
here the last song on the album, It's about to Rain.
It's his track eleven, another sick beat production track is
crazy and the hook is sick. This one might be
my favorite track on the whole album, And it makes

(01:17:38):
sense that he would call the album it's about ter rain,
and this song really stands out as a signature song.
I'm just gonna say this is my favorite song on here.
Let's go ahead and let's not be wishy washy about it.
This right here is my favorite track on the song.
The production is crazy, the hook is crazy. Definitely my
favorite song in a good way. Just kind of wrap
up the album and just like take it home.

Speaker 1 (01:17:57):
You know what I mean.

Speaker 3 (01:17:57):
You got runners on all the basses. They just hit
a grand slang with it at the end and win
the thing in the night. That's what this song right
here does. Takes it over, and then he closes out
with my mad Matthew McConaughey, Alright, do the album for you, evase,
do it do a real quick all right, and it's
called Eternity. It's probably awful, matthe McConaughey impression. He comes
on to kind of book end it. So he's on

(01:18:18):
at the beginning of the album, he's on at the
end of the album. I believe this is also from
True Detective. I don't know if he wants me to
give away, but I'd like that season with him and
Woody Harrelson. That was a great first season of True Detective.
Like I said, McConaughey's just that guy. His voice just
carries meaning to it even when he says something simple.
He's the kind of guy who could like read the
back of like a label of something. All right, so

(01:18:39):
it's got some fiber dietary fiber carbohydrates high. All right,
this is what we're gonna do here. So I don't
know it just h he just want to hear his voice.
It just kind of solidifies what evases doing here. So
salute to a Vase. Go check out this album. And
DJ Proof is nice on the cuts. It's not overlook
to product and just the cuts he does on here

(01:19:02):
just phenomenal. My favorite tracks on here track two, where
My Light Are At, track three, Put One in the Air,
Track five, Heart of a Glacier, Track six, Abomination, track eight,
Morning Fog, and then track eleven my favorite song on
the album, It's about ter Rain. Definitely go check out
a Vase, follow him online, check him out on band camp.
Salute to Djproof. They put together quite an album here.

(01:19:25):
It's called It's About to Rain. Find it on all platforms.
Big up A Vase. I feel you, man, This album
was dope, dude.

Speaker 1 (01:19:30):
What's could everyone?

Speaker 5 (01:19:31):
This is your man m dot wastem aka he did
it again and you're listening to the infinite band of
podcasts with the conversation Ken and Will go in any direction, music, movies, TV, sports,
video games, life, and even cereal because it's the infinite
band of podcasts.

Speaker 1 (01:19:48):
Check it out.

Speaker 3 (01:19:50):
It's hard for you to leave AOL. All right, Dad,
is Kirk Cosovedo doing what he does. He's pushing me
out the door. Get the show over with And that's
exactly what I'm going to do. But as usual, before
I go up, quick things. So I had mentioned earlier
that I'm putting out this episode right around my birthday
and I'm hitting a milestone number.

Speaker 1 (01:20:08):
Yeah, I don't.

Speaker 3 (01:20:08):
It's one of those things like I'm turning move, you
know what I mean, Like I don't feel like saying
the number. I don't know if I should just say it.

Speaker 1 (01:20:15):
I don't know.

Speaker 3 (01:20:16):
Whatever. People who know me know how old I'm turning. Man,
It's it's definitely an age where you're like, man, this
is crazy. You're hitting that time of your life where
you got to start thinking about arp and watching the
news all the time and slippers and you know, shoes
where you don't have to tie your shoelaces because you
don't want to bend down because it's too much work. Like,

(01:20:37):
you know what I mean, I'm hitting that age, getting
that age. It's happening as it's approaching, is this podcast
is being recorded. You can't stop this shit, but you
could do things to slow down the aging process as
far as like eating better and exercise, and I'm trying
to do those things. So not trying to preach here,
but definitely trying to get back to what I look
like when I was forty four, forty five, when things
were a little bit less, you know, Mushy, the hell

(01:21:01):
am I talking about? Salute to COVID for messing up
everybody's routine and then keeping us out of that routine
for a long time. But what I want to say
is that I'm going to do something special for my birthday.
I haven't been on an airplane in a few years.
It's been well before COVID since I flew anywhere and
really went anywhere. And what I was trying to do,
you know, for years, was and I was doing, you know,

(01:21:23):
pretty regularly. I'm trying to go to every baseball park
and I've got a lot of them. I think I've
got seventeen done, so more more than halfway finished. And
I've been wanting to go to I haven't been to
a ballpark outside of the Chicago area since twenty eighteen.
When I went to the new Atlanta Braves Stadium and
back in the fall. You know, my wife and I
were talking. I just said, like, you know, when I

(01:21:44):
turned this age, I almost said it. I don't want
it to be, you know, going out to Chili's. I
want to go somewhere like not here, like want to leave,
go someplace like Bobby Brown. I want to get away.
And I have on my short list of cities I've
never been to. Seattle is on that list. It's like

(01:22:04):
in the top three cities I want to go to.
And I'm like, you know what, I want to go
to see a Dan Mariner's game, and I want to
go to Seattle. I don't want to go to the
Space Needle. I want to get some Starbucks, the original Starbucks.
I want to go to the Amazon building or whatever the.

Speaker 1 (01:22:16):
Hell it is.

Speaker 3 (01:22:17):
I want to see, you know, the waterfront there. I
just want to go someplace. I want to see the mountain.
I want to go somewhere else that's not you know,
suburbas Chicago, right. I don't want to be in cheesecake
factory for this milestone number that I'm about to hit.
And I've been through a lot for the last few months,
so I feel like this is a good time to
get the hell out of here. My daughter's five, the
first time she'll be on a plane, first time my

(01:22:38):
wife and I have been on a plane together, and
we both haven't been on a plane individually in years.
So it's kind of scary, a little bit a little crazy,
but can't wait to do it. So I'm spending my
birthday weekend in Seattle. Definitely, you know, hit me up
when you hear this episode if you got any tips
or anything I should be doing. I'm there. I don't
mess with seafood, so I know that's a problem because
they have a lot of good seafood. Apparently I will

(01:22:59):
not be eating any of it. I will watch other
people eat. It's I guess. At Pike's Market, where I
see people throw fish and people watch them throwing fish,
sounds kind of gross because I don't want of those
guts getting on me, you know what I mean. But
speaking of gross, there's one thing I'm gonna do though.
When we go there. There's some wall where people put
gum on the wall and you add to this gum
wall and you keep putting gum on it. It sounds disgusting.

Speaker 1 (01:23:20):
I don't know.

Speaker 3 (01:23:20):
I got to bring like a glove or something like that.
I don't want to catch anything, but we're gonna do
it because it's a touristy thing to do and you're
in Seattley, might as well do it once. So we're
already talking about kind of gum we're gonna chew up
to put on the wall. So anyway, thanks for checking
out the show. Now, my happy Birthday gift to you
