Boogie Down Productions: Criminal Minded (1987)

Beck Did It Better Podcast 1987
About this episodeToday we become the best podcast about Boogie Down Productions as we set the timer and have our first "Mission Impossible" podcast. We talk about grabbing babies, small stools, and Aaron's kid has pet bugs.  Next week we go to Miami and listen to the long long live classic "Sam Cooke: Live at the Harlem Square Club"

[00:00]All right, so here's the deal, guys.

[00:01]We are going to do...

[00:03]Okay, jeez.

[00:04]Okay, we have a 59-minute timer for this episode.

[00:08]So right now, look at your little episode thing on your podcast player.

[00:11]Is it longer than 59 minutes?

[00:13]That means we fucked up, okay?

[00:14]Something went wrong.

[00:15]We left a tail on it.

[00:18]It gave me a little extra.

[00:19]Yeah, just a little bit.

[00:20]And I haven't started the timer yet, so don't look yet.

[00:23]Something from Danny.

[00:24]Yeah, this is a little something.

[00:25]But we're going to do a 59-minute episode tonight.

[00:29]Oh, I did start the timer.

[00:30]Oh, my God, we're out of the clock.

[00:31]And that makes me think.

[00:33]I think we've got to start with Mission Impossible music.

[00:36]Oh, okay.

[00:36]Yeah, that's right.

[00:37]Mission Impossible.

[00:38]In honor of Mission Impossible, the movie.

[00:40]Possible theme.

[00:41]The eighth installment.

[00:43]I've not seen all eight.

[00:44]Okay, here we go.

[00:46]Well, I realize they're all on Delta.

[00:48]And so I started to watch them, but I was like, I just don't.

[00:51]You've got to see that big screen.

[00:52]I got on that tiny screen.

[00:53]Yeah.

[00:54]The thing was, the Mission Impossible movies,

[00:57]they all just blend together.

[00:59]Rob, what do we have in the countdown?

[01:00]How many minutes?

[01:01]It says 69.

[01:03]It's going the wrong way.

[01:04]I don't know how to use this countdown.

[01:06]5804.

[01:07]We can see it in the search right there.

[01:09]Listen.

[01:09]58 minutes.

[01:10]Oh, I love it.

[01:11]We're into the 57s.

[01:12]Oh, boy.

[01:13]In 2020.

[01:14]You need to talk quicker, Rob.

[01:16]Oh, my God.

[01:17]It's kind of a little bit exciting.

[01:19]Living on the edge.

[01:21]In 2020, four friends decided to list every one of the greatest 500 albums

[01:24]aside by Rolling Stone magazine.

[01:25]This resulted in a text chain that celebrated the music.

[01:28]It was a great experience.

[01:28]It was a story of the order and led us to making this podcast.

[01:30]We are far from experts.

[01:32]We promise to do almost no research.

[01:33]All opinions are our own, unless you disagree.

[01:36]Please sit back and enjoy.

[01:38]Beck did it better.

[01:39]You hit the post on that bad boy.

[01:44]I hit the post there.

[01:45]Big time.

[01:46]Okay?

[01:47]God.

[01:47]I used to watch that show all the time.

[01:49]And the TV show was so funny because it was so fucking lame.

[01:52]There would be like one mask.

[01:54]And you'd be like, oh, God damn.

[01:55]I did not see that coming.

[01:57]That guy had a mask on.

[01:58]And then you watch the movie.

[01:59]Everybody's got masks on.

[02:00]Okay.

[02:01]Including TV show.

[02:02]The coach, including one guy who came up to Tom Cruise.

[02:04]You know what he said to him?

[02:05]Russell Tom Cruise smoking, smoking, and he ripped off his mask.

[02:14]And it was Tom Cruise.

[02:15]And then he said, did you order the cold red?

[02:18]Yeah.

[02:19]Yeah.

[02:20]I want to see a mission impossible where he goes to a house of ill

[02:24]repute.

[02:24]You know what I mean?

[02:25]And tries not to get an STD.

[02:27]Like that's his mission.

[02:28]That's an impossible mission.

[02:29]Yeah.

[02:29]He comes out and he's like, oh, it burns when I pee.

[02:32]Okay.

[02:33]Maybe a little tip for something that's coming later tonight.

[02:35]We'll see.

[02:36]We're all the way up to album 239.

[02:38]And from 1987, we have a Boogie Down Productions with Criminal Minded.

[02:43]South Bronx.

[02:44]South, South Bronx.

[02:45]Guys, this did better than their first album where Boogie Down Productions just whispered

[02:50]over their music.

[02:51]That was Subliminal Minded.

[02:53]Subliminal.

[02:54]Ha.

[02:54]Ha.

[02:57]Boogie Nights Productions.

[02:58]I tried to think of something subliminal to put into this podcast, but I can't

[03:01]even tell somebody to tell our listeners to do.

[03:03]Tell friends about this podcast.

[03:05]You're not going to do that.

[03:06]Don't.

[03:06]Okay.

[03:07]Hey, you dumb shits.

[03:09]Tell your friends about this podcast.

[03:10]That's superliminal.

[03:11]Aaron.

[03:11]I'm not subliminal.

[03:12]I'm superliminal.

[03:13]I'm in their fucking face.

[03:14]These dumb listeners.

[03:15]Listen.

[03:16]I thought you were going to be superlingual and speak this in multiple

[03:20]languages.

[03:20]Oh, that's super labial, Rob.

[03:23]No.

[03:23]Well, I was trying to be superlingual.

[03:25]Ha.

[03:25]Ha.

[03:26]Ha.

[03:27]Oh, you have a superlingua.

[03:29]Thank you.

[03:30]Bah.

[03:30]Eating tongue is a weird food though, Aaron, isn't it?

[03:34]It's one of the few foods where it's like you're Frenching the cow.

[03:36]Anyway.

[03:37]No, I stopped, actually.

[03:38]I used to like tongue tacos, or I would try to like tongue tacos, and it's not my thing

[03:43]anymore.

[03:43]How do they taste?

[03:44]Not great.

[03:45]They're dead.

[03:45]When do you just come to, like, I just, a nice shrimp taco, a nice chicken taco.

[03:52]Oh, man.

[03:52]I like those, man.

[03:52]That's just phenomenal, right?

[03:54]I agree.

[03:54]Like, when do you just say, like, why am I messing?

[03:57]I mean, if you walk up to the taco truck, and it's like, we got lingua, we got buche,

[04:01]we got trepas, like, we got to try them.

[04:03]Go ahead, Rob.

[04:04]If they said we've got buche, I'd be like, what?

[04:09]Buche?

[04:11]I don't think you can say that about people anymore.

[04:13]Big stomach, I think.

[04:14]Oh.

[04:15]Now, wait a minute.

[04:16]That does act.

[04:17]Wait a minute.

[04:18]Give it a shot.

[04:20]Big stomach.

[04:21]Oh.

[04:21]We're, listen, I've got three guys here.

[04:23]I could be wrong.

[04:24]Listen, guys, can we stop the timer when we're talking about Aaron's tongue?

[04:27]Aaron's tacos.

[04:27]Nope.

[04:28]We should be able to stop the timer.

[04:30]54-37.

[04:31]Rob, if I had an hour with a woman from a house of ill repute, I wouldn't spend it talking

[04:36]about what you're talking about now.

[04:38]We might find out, because, you know, I'm going to Reno next week.

[04:43]Get ready for the voicemail.

[04:45]Oh, God, we have a voicemail, and I have a list tonight.

[04:47]I got to get going.

[04:47]Rob, they do call it the biggest little city, don't they?

[04:50]Oh.

[04:51]Oh, Reno.

[04:53]Here comes Robbie.

[04:54]Jenny got in a place, a restaurant.

[04:57]Reservation at a hotel, where she later read so many bad reviews about the hallways flooding

[05:02]that she got a new place.

[05:04]Like, almost all the reviews were about the hallways being flooded and people getting

[05:07]their feet wet when they walk out.

[05:08]Yeah.

[05:09]And guess where she booked us now?

[05:11]We're in a place where there is no casino, and I told her that was fine.

[05:16]That doesn't bother me.

[05:17]Oh, my God.

[05:17]Yeah.

[05:18]I mean, if I made $3.7 million like Jenny does, I would, yeah, I would go to the biggest

[05:24]casino, best hotel.

[05:27]Well, you could find, like, don't, you don't, you don't need to go to a place where they're

[05:30]flooding like that.

[05:31]That would be like a 1% raise for Matt to make that much.

[05:33]I was going to say, Matt, after your claim on your money a few weeks ago, I don't think

[05:37]you're...

[05:38]I don't know.

[05:38]Does that claim anything?

[05:39]I do keep hearing, does that claim anything?

[05:42]Yeah.

[05:42]You said you have more money than you know what to do with it.

[05:43]Like, I don't, you know, I don't listen back to what I said, so what did I say?

[05:46]You said, and I quote, I have more money than I know what to do with it, and my job is easy

[05:50]as shit.

[05:50]It wasn't quite an I quote, but it was in that vein.

[05:54]Yeah.

[05:54]Now, listen.

[05:56]I don't think it was really in that vein.

[05:57]I think you're exaggerating.

[05:59]There's two things there, though.

[06:00]Let's clear this up.

[06:01]I can have more money than I need, and it doesn't have to be that much money.

[06:05]Right?

[06:06]Fair.

[06:07]Right.

[06:07]I mean, and my job is easy as shit, and they pay me more money than they should, but don't

[06:12]tell them that, please.

[06:13]Yeah, both of those fair points.

[06:14]Yep.

[06:15]Now, is this parody song good?

[06:17]No.

[06:18]Okay.

[06:19]Do I think it's maybe one of the worst parody songs I've ever done?

[06:22]Yeah.

[06:22]But guess what?

[06:23]It doesn't matter.

[06:24]Okay.

[06:24]I'm just turning out content for these.

[06:26]I'm just turning out content for these little piggies who love this shit.

[06:28]Now, listen.

[06:28]I've got three guys here who have collected so many sucker MCs that they got enough rappers

[06:34]to get a free one because they had the Native American shooting at the star.

[06:36]You know what I mean?

[06:38]That's a good one.

[06:40]Oh, that's a good joke.

[06:42]When you collected those Tootsie Pop rappers, and you're like, this one has a star.

[06:46]I'm collecting it.

[06:46]That's what dumb fat kids were doing all over the United States.

[06:50]How do you think that rumor got started?

[06:53]I don't know.

[06:53]It's a brilliant rumor, though.

[06:55]Probably by Tootsie Pop.

[06:56]Do you know anybody who's working at a grocery store, and somebody came up with a bunch of

[07:01]dirty-ass, sticky rappers?

[07:04]They're like, I want a free blow pop.

[07:05]I have 100 of these.

[07:06]You're like, what are you?

[07:07]No.

[07:07]What was it?

[07:09]If you got enough, you got a free one?

[07:11]What was the rumor?

[07:11]I don't know.

[07:12]Was it like 50, or was it?

[07:13]I think we could do like, if you got enough Boston Baked Beans box tops, then you get

[07:17]a free.

[07:18]Listen, the timer's down to 51 minutes, so I can't talk about this, but guys, I'm getting

[07:24]kind of sick of Boston Baked Beans.

[07:25]I hate to say it.

[07:26]I had my first box ever.

[07:27]When I was up in North Dakota, I saw them, so I'll take a couple of your boxes.

[07:31]They were good.

[07:31]I've had too many, and I'm just going to say this right now.

[07:34]My wife is not mad that you guys sent a bunch of Boston Baked Beans.

[07:38]She wanted me to be very clear that I don't say that on the podcast, that she's mad.

[07:41]She's not mad.

[07:42]She's so not mad that she said it to me, don't tell everybody that I'm mad.

[07:47]I said, I won't.

[07:48]I promise.

[07:48]How many different delivery boxes, like not, delivery or separate orders came?

[07:54]I think three.

[07:56]One was just small boxes, and then a bunch were the huge movie theater boxes, but it

[08:00]turns out sometimes Boston Baked Beans have a bad batch.

[08:03]Boston Baked Beans, bad batch, bad news.

[08:06]Oh, I didn't do the last B on there.

[08:09]Damn it.

[08:10]I got to report them to the Better Business Bureau.

[08:13]Bad batch, Boston Baked Beans, bad business.

[08:15]Better Business Bureau, I got bad Boston Baked Beans.

[08:17]It's a triple B.

[08:20]I got big beef with your business.

[08:23]Big beef with the Boston Baked Beans business.

[08:26]This is just like my goals dating when I was younger.

[08:28]Triple Bs.

[08:29]I didn't really have high standards.

[08:30]Hey, Major League Baseball, MLB.

[08:33]I got some Major League Beans, MLBs.

[08:36]Listen, let's turn on the radio.

[08:39]Let's see what's on right now, and I'll give you a hint.

[08:41]It's not very good.

[08:42]Hey, what's up, everybody?

[08:44]Welcome to KROB, K-R-O-B.

[08:47]You know, there's a lot of talk about who grew up with a milkman and who went to the country club,

[08:53]but I think what matters is...

[08:56]Who's making all that money right now?

[08:58]Who on this podcast is doing what he loves, and he gets paid more than he ever imagined?

[09:05]Oh, yeah.

[09:06]Yeah.

[09:08]Matt's rich.

[09:09]Matt's so rich.

[09:10]Matt's rich.

[09:11]Matt's so rich.

[09:13]Matt's rich.

[09:14]He's so rich, his paycheck is above average.

[09:18]People ask me, what's Matt's employment?

[09:20]He makes a lot of money, and he seems to enjoy it.

[09:23]He does what he likes, and he likes what he does.

[09:25]He's stacking that cash like he's playing Jenga.

[09:28]M-A-T-T makes M-O-N-E-Y.

[09:33]He's got a milkman, and you know this fucker is maxing out his 401k plan.

[09:40]Oh, yeah.

[09:40]He's got a giant mansion in Minneapolis.

[09:43]He can only buy only front row ticks.

[09:46]Oh, I'm kind of reeling out of gas there, dude.

[09:48]Yeah, because Matt's rich.

[09:49]He's so rich.

[09:50]He's the richest.

[09:51]It's harder to do.

[09:52]He's pretty much rich.

[09:53]He can barely live.

[09:54]His paycheck.

[09:55]Because Matt's rich.

[09:57]He's so rich.

[09:58]Hey, Aaron.

[09:59]When you want to hear about...

[10:00]Next time I do a parody song, don't ever say, this is harder than it looks, right?

[10:04]Don't ever say that to me again when I play one of my parody songs.

[10:07]That wasn't hard for me.

[10:08]That was easy.

[10:08]Okay.

[10:09]Those sick rhymes.

[10:10]No, I'm impressed.

[10:11]I'm just saying, this is good rhymes for me.

[10:13]Aaron, do you know how easy this is for me?

[10:16]Do you know how easy this is for me?

[10:18]Yeah.

[10:19]Beck did it.

[10:21]I wish you could do it so I didn't have to see you fuck it up.

[10:24]Yes.

[10:25]I'm just saying, this music sounds simple and it's not.

[10:27]No.

[10:28]Oh, absolutely.

[10:29]When you do do a parody song, you realize he's changing rhythms and tempos a lot more

[10:34]than you realize.

[10:34]But it does remind me, Russell, when I was in college and I went into a classroom and

[10:38]there on the board, it said, I can't think of any goddamn rap.

[10:44]Just any rap at all.

[10:46]It's like that, y'all.

[10:47]It's like that, y'all.

[10:48]It's like birthdays was the worst days.

[10:52]We drink champagnes because it's Thursdays.

[10:55]Damn right.

[10:56]I love the life I live.

[10:57]It went from negative to positive and we're at 47 minutes.

[11:02]Yes.

[11:02]I went in there and it said, lowdy dody.

[11:04]We like to, and then it was just blank.

[11:06]And I wrote party.

[11:07]And then the guy was like, oh my God, you go to school here.

[11:09]And I said, no, I'm, I'm sneaking in to meet these women with triple B's.

[11:13]Yeah.

[11:15]That was a good joke, Rob.

[11:16]But we stepped over it.

[11:17]Sorry.

[11:18]It's a backseat windows up.

[11:19]That's the way we liked it.

[11:20]And Rob just filled it in.

[11:21]It was like, he's a genius.

[11:22]Yeah.

[11:22]And I was like, how could I make this song about air?

[11:25]And he did lingua.

[11:25]Cause now I got to have another taco song about air.

[11:27]Something about lingua and tacos air.

[11:29]And I feel like it writes to myself.

[11:30]I feel like it's a shirt we could sell.

[11:32]It's right there.

[11:32]All right.

[11:34]Listen, I've got three guys here.

[11:36]I've got Russell in Minneapolis.

[11:38]Russell, how are you doing?

[11:39]And we're talking about, oh, by the way,

[11:40]we're talking about criminal minded by boogie down productions.

[11:42]Russell, how are you doing?

[11:43]Two 39.

[11:43]Rob, you need protection on the mic.

[11:45]I need protection on a Peloton bike.

[11:48]Wow.

[11:49]Oh, that's get it.

[11:52]Get it, Rob.

[11:53]I have done more research.

[11:55]Tonight on STDs and toilet seats that you would guess for this episode.

[11:58]I'm just going to say that right now.

[11:59]You got, you have to have that excuse ready at the tip of a finger.

[12:04]You can't be like asked about it.

[12:05]Be like, hold on a second.

[12:07]I need to look at my phone.

[12:08]Actually.

[12:09]I picked this up on a Peloton bike or a toilet seat at the airport last week.

[12:14]Felt a bike or a toilet seat.

[12:17]Can I just say this?

[12:19]This is not because my wife saw my search history and I'm not saying on the podcast.

[12:22]I looked up STDs on toilet seat.

[12:24]Okay.

[12:24]That has nothing.

[12:25]That has nothing to do with her looking at my search history.

[12:26]Hey, but she's like, why are all these grannies down to fuck in your area?

[12:30]And I'm like, I don't know.

[12:31]I've got Matt in Minneapolis.

[12:35]Matt, how are you doing?

[12:36]Good, Rob.

[12:38]Next week in Reno, Mr. Magic Mike 69 might wish to come and try to save your ass.

[12:43]Wow.

[12:43]From the brothel.

[12:44]We'll see if we're going to talk about that.

[12:46]And I've got Aaron out in California.

[12:48]Now, Aaron recently told me he bought, and this is weird to me, but you know, everybody's marriage is different.

[12:53]He bought condoms.

[12:55]Oh, that said ribs for her pleasure.

[12:57]And when he opened it up, there was a frog inside.

[12:59]Ribbon.

[13:02]Ribbon.

[13:02]Ribbon.

[13:03]Ribbon.

[13:04]And the frog came out and goes, I'm going to fuck your wife.

[13:07]I was like, whoa, that now that gets the ribbed for pleasure.

[13:11]Yo, Rob is like the arrow and we are the crossbow.

[13:15]Let's talk about criminal minded BDP.

[13:17]Can I just say this?

[13:20]Of all the animals that I could catch my wife having sex with that would buy me a condom.

[13:25]A frog is probably right up there.

[13:26]You know what I mean?

[13:27]If that's like your type.

[13:29]Big, long.

[13:30]We got to move this along.

[13:32]This is not what I would spend my 42 minutes on.

[13:34]But I do.

[13:36]I do know that she does.

[13:37]She does say that size doesn't matter.

[13:39]She doesn't say that.

[13:40]She says it matters a lot.

[13:42]She said that.

[13:43]I heard it.

[13:44]It's the size of the canoe.

[13:45]Because I can tell you the motion of the ocean here, Matt.

[13:48]It's flat.

[13:49]It's very.

[13:49]We're in the horse latitudes with me.

[13:52]There is no motion of the ocean.

[13:54]It's still.

[13:55]It's still.

[13:55]There's still waters all around.

[13:55]I'm just going to say that right now.

[13:57]Still waters run deep.

[13:58]Let's go right to our voicemail.

[14:01]I hate this timer.

[14:04]This timer is stressing me out big time.

[14:06]You got to let it go.

[14:08]Just let it roll.

[14:09]Okay.

[14:11]We're down to 44 minutes.

[14:12]Hey, Rob.

[14:13]Are you still planning on coming out to Reno at the end of the month?

[14:16]All right.

[14:17]So that, of course, is for Magic Mike.

[14:19]Okay.

[14:19]69.

[14:21]I am going to fly out in a couple days.

[14:25]I've not reached out to Magic Mike yet.

[14:26]This episode is probably going to get to him around the time I'm going to reach out to him.

[14:29]Okay.

[14:30]So, Mike, I am.

[14:31]Why would you not reach out to him?

[14:33]Wait.

[14:34]Is this episode coming out on Tuesday?

[14:35]It has to do with the stabbing that I feel might happen.

[14:39]Okay.

[14:40]I don't.

[14:41]And I just, you know, I'm just this kind of guy.

[14:43]I don't want to get stabbed, man.

[14:45]Bring Jenny with you.

[14:46]She's not going to let you get stabbed.

[14:47]He's got.

[14:48]Yeah.

[14:48]Jenny will let you.

[14:49]From what I know.

[14:51]From what I remember.

[14:51]Magic Mike 69.

[14:52]I don't want to out him or anything.

[14:55]But he's got three kids.

[14:56]Yeah.

[14:56]One of them's like in like the marching band at the college he goes to.

[15:00]Things like that.

[15:00]Like those are all perfectly normal parents.

[15:03]Magic Mike 69.

[15:04]Great guy.

[15:05]Great guy.

[15:06]I'm going to find out if he's got a knife collection or not.

[15:08]We're going to.

[15:09]Yeah.

[15:09]Ask him that first.

[15:10]What would you think if you and Jenny traveled across the country and you're like sitting.

[15:15]Let's say you went to San Diego or something.

[15:17]And all this.

[15:17]And she's like, oh, my friend Magic Mike 69, who's been listening to my podcast for the

[15:22]last few years, is going to show up and meet us for lunch.

[15:24]What would you think of that if Jenny did that?

[15:27]That.

[15:28]Okay.

[15:29]Well, that does make me think about how this is going to go over with Jenny.

[15:33]Although I will say, Russell, I will say I was recently Jenny tricked me into a store

[15:38]in New York City.

[15:39]And who shows up?

[15:41]It's Ross and his kid who's wearing the Beck did a better T-shirt.

[15:45]He had me sign it with a Sharpie.

[15:47]I met a fan in real life.

[15:49]And I have to admit, when we went out to dinner, I had a great time talking to Ross and his

[15:53]kids about the podcast.

[15:54]Jenny had no idea what was going on.

[15:57]We're dropping inside podcast jokes all over the place.

[16:00]And he was like, what are you guys talking about?

[16:02]She hated it.

[16:04]And she's friends with Ross.

[16:05]Did you have to explain to her that you're on a podcast?

[16:07]No, she knows, Aaron, because she yells at me.

[16:10]I don't know if you remember that's part of the part of a funny running bit that we do

[16:13]here is that she wakes up and yells at me.

[16:15]And Rob, you did meet him like how much of your dinner was spent on the podcast.

[16:20]We talking over 43 minutes or about how much time we got left.

[16:24]Hey, I would say easily over half the conversation was about the podcast.

[16:29]Nice.

[16:30]Nice.

[16:31]Nice.

[16:32]Yeah.

[16:33]And when they found out the ultimate podcast secret, it blew their mind.

[16:35]Okay.

[16:36]It wasn't good.

[16:39]It blows minds.

[16:40]It's so good.

[28:35]year is it right now the rat it's the rat i think i think it is um so a couple weeks ago

[28:41]i don't remember when we did something we were talking about bands who didn't you know the second

[28:46]second time through their later albums he didn't like or whatever well yeah they fell off arcade

[28:51]fire fell off they have a new album out called pink elephant they made a new album out in may

[28:56]what yeah came out with me so i guess you know we've forgotten about

[29:00]all this stuff so may 9th came out excellent album the new arcade fire album excellent album

[29:07]highly highly highly recommended i'm on the floor are we playing the song right now yeah

[29:12]yeah can you not hear it i can't hear it but that's okay you guys can hear it great i hear it

[29:16]um yeah so this song from there that excellent album so check it out just awesome so i uh arcade

[29:23]fire came back hopefully they do tour again if you famously remember we had a nice box seat we were

[29:30]gonna have because beck was opening for arcade fire at the uh the armory and then arcade fire had

[29:35]a little issue they got canceled for terrible behavior i believe yes they did they did so

[29:42]surprising surprising

[29:45]amazingly they're back but great album great album makes me sick when these rock stars have

[29:50]terrible behavior wait they did something actually bad never mind i'm not gonna say that the part

[29:55]where the appeal for them has to be that's an all-time awesome band name is it not yeah that's

[30:01]a good one if you if you were to to rank every band name in the history of the world on a list

[30:06]that name is in the top five percent i mean i think there's there's some really bad ones and

[30:11]my band being one of them pearl jam like what i mean how does how do you come up with pearl jam

[30:15]you know i don't know right it's it's good so screaming monkey boner that's a great band name

[30:22]yeah so that's all i had rob rolling going how's it going with you

[30:27]i'm going down into the subway after work there in front of me is a woman with a small child

[30:37]and a baby stroller like a a like a pram like a like a and so with a baby in it

[30:45]she's trying to figure out how to get down the stairs so of course i say excuse me ma'am

[30:48]you need some help okay no no wait a minute this is a joke this isn't true no this is where i know

[30:55]this wasn't making stuff up excuse me i am always helping women with strollers at the subway i do it

[31:01]all the time i've never heard you say excuse me ma'am in our entire i don't know i have been told

[31:06]by people in the know this is such you may be familiar with that they do think you make

[31:11]up stories rob oh what the fuck

[31:15]the only thing i'm disputing is that he said excuse me ma'am that's it everything else i

[31:22]believe is true okay how about you guys instead of interrupting and using my precious time

[31:28]okay how about you guys listen to how the story ends because i don't think you're going to be

[31:31]surprised without the story if it ends with a dingo eating that baby i am

[31:35]so i'm on the subway this goddamn dingo runs in coming westbound on the subway train

[31:45]from queens ain't the baby his hairy kid is two dingoes in a long jacket they took off with your

[31:51]baby so i listen english is not how this conversation is going to happen i realized

[31:59]that pretty quickly all right so i say to her can i help you she goes oh yes you know please

[32:04]so i'm like well how are we going to do this this is a big long stroller so i say

[32:10]this now listen in retrospect this is a big mistake what i say next this is a

[32:15]bad mistake i should not have said this are you single i kind of made like reaching motions

[32:21]and i said oh do you want me to take the baby now i don't know

[32:25]why me carrying the baby and her carrying the stroller is what i thought was the solution to

[32:31]this problem she was not thrilled with that idea even with our language you know we just didn't

[32:40]we're from different parts of the world we didn't understand each other but when a large

[32:44]man reaches for your baby in the stroller that's a universal language of i'm going to take your baby

[32:50]i'm going to grab your baby right now that's a classic language like let me like walk it up to

[32:54]someone when they're shoveling their driveway and be like hey you want me to help you shovel your

[32:58]driveway and they say yes and you just take their beer and drink their beer while they have to show

[33:02]yeah you missed the spot over there and then imagine that they go into your house and take

[33:07]one of your children and just carry it down the stairs that's what i was planning to do and she

[33:11]goes no what are you doing what is it and i was like oh

[33:14]then i was like okay i'll grab the front and then walk it down backwards which by the way

[33:18]really scary walking down backwards down the subway stairs that i was like if i fall now now

[33:23]i'm now i got to be really careful so anyway i tried to grab a stranger's baby at the subway

[33:28]station okay it did not go over well so hey all you people out there who think i'm making up a

[33:34]story rob technically if you would have stolen that baby and sold it to magic mike and reno you

[33:38]would have to split that with us four ways because that is the ownership of the podcast let's check

[33:44]the llc documents there yeah i don't know what we've written down about babies yeah yeah i was

[33:50]wondering why why russell put in this baby selling claws that we have in there it's right after the

[33:56]the business succession provision where rob has to give up the password in case of his

[34:01]untimely untimely removal for cause now listen taking the baby claws

[34:07]is santa's older troublemaking brother okay it's one of those norwegian santa clauses where they're

[34:14]always like you got to put out oranges otherwise they come in and take all your kids or whatever

[34:17]you know what i'm talking about scandinavian santa clauses are so scary cinder clouds or whatever

[34:21]they talked about that on uh the office one time what's that crump is it krumpus or something like

[34:25]that rampus yeah grandpa's talking about grandpa's yep oh yeah you know what i could go for a scary

[34:32]christmas do you guys think you'd go for a scary christmas i don't like scary movies i went and

[34:36]saw sinners i don't do we ever talk about this i don't think i could see that in the theater

[34:40]a good movie i thought it was very very good it was very it's almost

[34:44]like two movies in one if you really want to think about it it really doesn't turn into

[34:47]there's some scary stuff in the first 30 seconds like flashing type things yeah and then it's a

[34:54]kind of a almost like a party planning movie for an hour and a half then it becomes a vampire movie

[34:59]but i cannot stand scary stuff i almost walked out the movie was amazing i just don't want it in my

[35:05]soul and like this happens a lot where black mirror is the show the upstairs roommate watches a lot

[35:14]screaming there's thrash i can't i can't do it in my life i just don't want it i can't either

[35:19]sinners i absolutely adored i saw sinners at the grand lake theater one of only five theaters in

[35:23]the country with 70 millimeter film projection where's that at aaron it's in oakland california

[35:29]it's on grand avenue right down by lake merit just before this is because man doesn't even

[35:33]know what you're talking about to go to lakeshore you're right you're out of there i want to know

[35:37]where it's at i mean i'm either going to take 24 to five people want though rob get off on the grand

[35:44]exit or i'm going to take broadway down to 51st which turns into pleasant valley and then here

[35:49]and let's not get ridiculous we were good we were good can i tell you i went and saw uh that movie

[35:55]and it had a wooden stake in it and i was like oh this is great but then they got they got a small

[36:00]piece of it they got a small piece of it in their hand and i was like oh this isn't sinners this is

[36:04]splinters and i was wondering why the giant rat behind me was like ah i love this it speaks to me

[36:13]guys in trench coats that look normal to me and they're like smoking stack they're a party dudes

[36:19]listen we are talking about nobody we're going to talk about the album and we're talking i mean i

[36:24]mean honestly sinners is great if we're talking about the through lines of black music from the

[36:28]blues up through hip-hop to today through what we're going to talk about next week cinders is

[36:33]a great movie should be using as a backdrop listen this we got krs1 nice rs1 and dj

[36:43]scott larock okay they make up uh boogie down productions which is a group out of the bronx

[36:50]okay i didn't know if you guys picked up there from the bronx okay about this album it's tough

[36:54]to tell uh but basically this is based on the idea that somebody said on a song hey i think

[36:59]good hip-hop comes out of queensbridge which is queens i can see it right out my window

[37:03]and uh this album says oh you think so actually you're wrong you guys are all a bunch

[37:09]of mcs you're a bunch of chumps and we're going to show you that real hip-hop is coming out of

[37:13]uh south bronx uh basically we have like rap that's dancehall i mean this is this is 80 what

[37:21]did i say this was 87. in queens or is it the project in brooklyn it's a it's in queens okay

[37:28]it's outside well yeah it's in queens uh but this is the album further what's that where is it

[37:37]related to cannon falls sorry it's it's very close to cannon falls actually it's right there yeah it's

[37:43]everywhere i've lived is very close to cannonballs cannon falls where krs1 was born rob i'd never

[37:48]that's about where he was pretty close to it pretty close is there a bridge in cannon falls

[37:53]that might be i think there's an overpass bridge right i think that's a couple whatever it is it's

[37:56]over listen over the cannon river this is the first album that had uh uh like guns and bullets

[38:05]on the cover and actually the first one that ever had a song that was a first

[38:09]person crime being committed a lot of people are saying that this album led to

[38:13]basically the creation of gangster rap okay but what's crazy is i want you to just think about

[38:18]this is 1987 in hip-hop right this is one of the earliest rap albums hold on hold on what the first

[38:23]album to have a first person crime being committed rap album i should say okay all right yeah now i

[38:29]got you yeah no i know there's some johnny cash stuff or whatever but listen to what's coming out

[38:33]in 1987. february 10th public enemies yo rush the bim show april 7th uh dj jazzy jeff rock the house

[38:43]uh we got l cool jay peyton full comes out this year too short born to mac ice tea rhymes pay and

[38:49]then of course the fat boys released crushing my rap the rappers i could always relate to that's a

[38:54]great year for hip-hop yeah i mean this it really is and it and nwa comes out with an album in

[38:59]november like it really does kind of take off like after this that projectile of rap and yeah i always

[39:06]felt like i mean i think carol krs1 is an all-time great mc but i always thought he was way ahead of

[39:12]the class where he's at but then we hear about because it is uh is brand new funk on the on that

[39:19]first prince album and then you got paid in full the same year like there's a lot of great

[39:23]hip-hop this mm-hmm yep for sure uh girls don't just just don't understand was that what the uh

[39:28]was on that fresh prince i didn't check out what was on that album uh i didn't check i did check so

[39:34]this album let's start with poetry i mean this walk around new

[39:42]new york today aaron listening to this was like all-time new yorker new york album man it still

[39:47]sounds good it's still fun to listen to krs1 now dj uh scotland rock was murdered five months after

[39:54]this album came out which changed krs1's kind of trajectory he started making more socially

[39:59]conscious rap after this yeah he became the like everyone should come together and squash the

[40:05]no beef and hip-hop kind of guy but this was like a i mean people described his rap style as dream of

[40:11]consciousness i kind of like thinking about that i thought that was kind of fun there's no noz about

[40:16]this i mean all this stuff is there's a bitch to me a big lead which ironically because naz is coming

[40:22]out of queensbridge of course you know there's another guy that you wouldn't have without this

[40:27]and krs1 that's back interview many years ago they were asking him about the anti-folk scene that he

[40:35]came out of he said the anti-focusing was an insular scene there's a lot of space within there

[40:40]to do almost anything you want to do to do almost anything you want to do to do almost anything you

[40:41]wanted i remember going in and getting as drunk as possible and getting up and playing a few tunes

[40:46]we would take our cue from krs1 we'd rewrite an old woody guthrie song we'd make something totally

[40:52]different felt powerful because we didn't need guitars amps or practice space or anything each

[40:58]person was a one-person band so he was somehow influenced by krs1 might not have beck or this

[41:03]podcast without him i never liked cannon falls the one person the one person band who would step and

[41:10]every time he stepped it would hit the bass drum i was always kind of annoyed by that you know what i

[41:15]mean like i've never seen one of those and been impressed by it no yeah you got garbage cans on

[41:20]your knees you're clanging them together not i mean he's right krs1 um all over this album kind

[41:24]of does like mini interpolations of of popular songs of the day he does the billy joel thing

[41:29]right like um isn't there an acbc one too better change what comes about your speakers

[41:35]yeah there's well there's acdc uh as a beat but he does the sort of interpolation of the billy joel

[41:41]rock and roll to me in his in his rhymes yeah well and there's a beatles in here too you hear him you

[41:48]hear him like interpolate the beatles into their raps too it's crazy you wouldn't think you could

[41:53]hear him eating those carrots if it's right there those mealworms that turn into beetles when they

[41:59]when criminal minds come through criminal minds saying samples from sly johnson's different strokes

[42:03]and trouble funks let's get small and begins with the melodic and lyrical interpolation interpolation

[42:11]man i have trouble saying that of the beatles hey jude so when criminal minds comes up i i'll tell

[42:16]you uh uh criminal minded i'm sorry if i was one of those ugly beatles i'd be like oh i hope my

[42:23]wife doesn't eric leptin no you know ringo good work thank you thank you very much uh south

[42:29]bronx this is a response to mc shan's the bridge

[42:33]it's all about where hip-hop came from and here's what i love about this aaron and i feel like people

[42:40]should do this more you should be calling out suckas more often you got to call them out

[42:46]you know what i mean like all these celebrities now doing like ads for cell phone companies

[42:51]shouldn't be doing that you you got money you don't need any more money we're not doing

[42:57]advertisements for cell phones it's fun and we heard this i think with public enemy and eric

[43:02]peter i came to some degree

[43:03]hip-hop was from a very geographically small area it was birthed somewhere very tiny geographically

[43:12]and it became worldwide and he's talking about really specific places in new york which now still

[43:18]resonate for folks and then this became a worldwide phenomenon it's very cool when you

[43:23]listen back and think about where it started yeah well it's a good thing it wasn't in another small

[43:27]geographic location vatican city one of the smallest geographic locations you get and the

[43:31]hip-hop scene there terrible

[43:33]but rhymes with white smoke check out my conclave right oh what a boring conclave

[43:41]two votes that's it what i didn't get is they had the pope hat and they heated it up

[43:47]so all the bacteria got off but that was the uh the con autoclave they had the con autoclave

[43:52]uh nine millimeter goes blank bang oh i got i panicked after that joke

[43:57]this is one like i said russell this is one of the first first person crime stories in hip-hop

[44:03]now i've been working on a second person story for hip-hop they went to the um wait what is

[44:12]second person what's the second person story do you guys know he went to the store that's told

[44:20]from like the god point of view right i don't know that's first person it made me like i realized like

[44:25]this is the the progenitor of stuff like regulators like there's no regulators without

[44:29]nine millimeter oh wow like telling the story about then i went around the corner and there's

[44:33]my buddy and i got in his car you know oh it's a classic bit where you get in the car and guess

[44:37]what aaron do you think they find trouble probably yeah well and guess what they can't believe

[44:43]it's happening in their own town that's always what they couldn't believe i was like you can't

[44:48]believe it seems like it happens quite a bit to you uh second person's narrative the narrator

[44:55]describes what you do and lets you into your own thoughts and background you are walking little used

[45:02]technique of narrative you are walking little used technique of narrative you are walking little used

[45:03]of narrative in which yeah uh uh at the subway station you wait 15 minutes on the platform for

[45:08]the train finally hello i hate it i'm not reading any books i'm done i'm not reading any books that

[45:12]are second person nobody tells me what to do especially not some author by the way i was

[45:18]trying to narrate a story there in second person and i could not think of a story i could not think

[45:22]of a narrative in my head that's how boring of a person i am you start your podcast and it only you

[45:27]only have an hour to do the podcast but you are down to 12 minutes because you keep talking and

[45:33]we've got we've got lots of time i've even got a list coming up i've even got a list this is no

[45:38]problem word from our sponsor oh a word from our sponsor it was a hard cut 12 30 probably yeah

[45:44]i'm not worried

[45:47]a little bit of disco bringing a little bit of disco back i'm gonna go a little different way

[45:53]from you guys here this i don't like i don't like the drum machine on this out it's too much and i'm

[46:01]gonna steal a turbo it's too much i'm gonna steal a turbo it's too much i'm gonna steal a turbo

[46:03]it feels like the drum is so far in the front when you're listening to this it feels like the

[46:07]rapper is way in the back and all i hear is that snare drummer that that drum beat machine and i'm

[46:13]not the biggest fan of the drum machine on this one on the whole album i shouldn't say i i hear

[46:19]you on that russell i do think if you listen to this in headphones there's some cool stereo stuff

[46:23]they're doing but i gotta say krs1's voice is so i'm with you on the fun and dynamic but i hear

[46:30]what you're saying about that that's a fair criticism

[46:32]there's something fun though about this 80s rap right where it's just like the true like put on

[46:37]a drum beat i'm gonna lay down a sick verse we're gonna go elementary i bought this cd at the fifth

[46:43]element in minneapolis i remember taking it to the counter and the guy said good choice i felt

[46:49]like i was such a star cd buyer that's sick you walk you get just a little more pep in your step

[46:55]as you walk out of the store just a little bit on the last version of this list this album was like

[47:02]to me there's an album like this and there's an album like uh uh will smith's and you know that

[47:13]just sounds completely hokey but this just seems to uh you know stand the test of time to me like

[47:20]this sounds like 80s everything else just seems i don't know so i i think this is a great album

[47:25]dope beat this is the acdc beat it's hard others claim to be fresh but they're not

[47:30]back in black right i was thinking of the what's my favorite beastie boy song that where they're

[47:37]they're using the led zeppelin cover

[47:39]uh it's on the whole fatigue i was talking about this is so good i do like there's a rhyme in here

[47:48]that shows you how early they made this song he rhymes the word mike with nike like the shoes

[47:53]oh yes nike and i'm like oh we weren't quite sure how to pronounce that but remix for p is free

[48:00]is the term scott larock the most used phrase in this album of any phrase in album history

[48:11]it's a thousand times over like 40 minutes right but it's kind of like now there's no it's like a

[48:17]dj tag right now it's like buzzer than that beat uh metro woman wants to know like uh they all

[48:24]djs got their tags right he does say he's on the wheels of steel which you know i love i love when

[48:30]they talk about the wheels of steel it's so good the bridge is over does this sound like wu-tang or

[48:35]what if you want to join a crew well you must see me you can't sound like shannon

[48:40]i mean this sounds so much like wu-tang to me it's great i love this it's just the snare and

[48:48]the keys right there's they're saying a couple of these songs they think are some of the greatest

[48:52]diss songs of all time it's one of the original diss songs and it's also one of the original

[48:57]multi-celebic raps right because he says

[49:00]bronx created hip-hop tweens queens will only get dropped and that was a big step forward in

[49:05]rhyme schemes for hip-hop well aaron that song was called something about a bridge i can't remember

[49:10]now because i switched pages but that made me think bridge is over that made me think about

[49:16]what are some other songs that have bridges in them oh are we doing water aaron if you think

[49:22]i'm going to make this into peppers if you think i'm going to make this into some sort of double

[49:26]entendre where i talk about the musical bridge and that's my final joke

[49:30]i double upon you double upon you double entendre double upon you the bridge right outside my

[49:38]window aaron that goes right to queen's bridge the 59th street bridge okay

[49:43]everybody loves this is an all-time bridge song oh yes now i will say he's talking about

[49:53]walking over that bridge the little little show yeah the bridge that he's talking about walking

[49:59]over would be one of the scariest bridges to walk ever there's bikes on there going so fast it's crazy

[50:04]by the way minute 43 song perfect length of course simon and garfunkel did another classic

[50:14]bridge song but i don't want to hear it i'm gonna hear the aretha franklin verse yes the only verse

[50:19]of course this was on uh what album was the sound we heard it amazing grace and she sang this

[50:29]at the grammy awards when simon and garfunkel picked up five grammys even though they had

[50:34]already broken up she sang this or that which is and they listen to that so good bridge over

[50:41]trouble man this is one of the top bridge songs i would say i would say so you can we'll give you an

[50:47]extra 30 seconds on your timer rob if you no no no no this one let's just play a little bit

[50:52]destructs at 721 matt there's no extensions and then of course guys this is a song no this is a

[50:58]song that this band would use as a warm-up before their arena shows they would go into the bathroom

[51:03]or the locker room and practice their vocals using this song

[51:06]it's eagles

[51:13]with seven bridges road in the sun a great song about bridges and not just one bridge aaron

[51:22]no not two

[51:25]as you go okay

[51:28]not three bridges seven bridges that's a lot of bridges that's a lot of bridges

[51:37]what am i going to the keys those are causeways i think and then of course

[51:41]we have a song about somebody getting tossed off a bridge

[51:44]bobby gentry with ode to billy joe

[51:49]and then of course probably most famously right we have

[51:58]red hot chili peppers under the bridge

[52:00]but i would say brussels all these songs what don't they have fundraising

[52:09]well i know an artist i was gonna bring this up i know an artist named beck all right good
