Wow! What was the project?

I directed the show open and package for Vh1’s Hip Hop Honours while I was based in New York.

I used to be so cool. I think my coolness left sometime around 2012 (and took most of my hair with it).

    That's really is pretty cool HBT. I'm thinking of stealing it and incorporating it into my own background.

    For verisimilitude, when recounting your experience directing that crew, make sure you add that Eric b and Rakim's album Paid in Full is arguably the greatest hip hop album, and the title track is arguably the most influential hip hop song ever.

    And, to avoid any tricky questions that might poke hole in your story,  quickly say the phenomenal coldcut remix is even better than the original (and is also super influential in the way that it blended hip hop and electronic, paving the way for DJ Shadow, Nightmares on Wax and arguably even super producers like madlib, MF Doom and jay dilla)

    No one has mentioned that rapper who wore a clock round his neck.

    He would never have an excuse for being late to an appointment.

    That’d be Public Enemy. There was a thread on here a couple of months ago called Fill the ‘G and I always thought it sounded like a Public Enemy song title (think, Fight the Power).

    The band is public enemy.

    The fella with the outsize clock like a bling necklace is Flava flav.

    Not really a rapper, more an old school hype man.

    My go to albums for Rap as Paid in full, PE - takes a nation, NWA -Straight outta, Ice -T - OG, Ice Cube - Lethal Injection, Geto Boys -Til death do us part.

    Snoops early stuff, Cypress and Warren G’s first lot are always good to throw on too.

    I've always felt disappointed, even sad, for anybody too young to see Robbie Flower play. Having read this thread, I now have a second reason to feel disappointed. Anyone too young for Robbie Flower is also too young to know The Beatles in their prime. I've tried to explain the influence on contemporary music and the seven glorious years of Beatlemania to my children and they just don't understand. All the discussion comparing metal bands in this thread is rather like discussing the merits of Neitz versus Schwarz when Robbie Flower towers over them majestically.

    The Beatles were obviously very good but if I had a choice to see one of the 2 i would chose The Doors over The Beatles.

    I quite liked his previous avi, too. The one where he’s lying seductively on the beach in a rather fetching low-cut number. 😁

    He was actually often late to appointments. Was due to looking at the clock in mirrors or upside down with his chin to his chest

    I always return to “Enter The Wu Tang (36 Chambers)”. It’s got such a dark, subterranean mood throughout, and just drops you into their world. It’s the “Exile On Main St” of hip-hop.

    • WHAT’S NEXT? by The Oracle

      What’s next for a beleagured Melbourne Football Club down in form and confidence, facing  intense criticism and disapproval over some underwhelming recent performances and in the midst of a four game losing streak? Why, it’s Adelaide which boasts the best percentage in the AFL and has won six of its last seven games. The Crows are hot and not only that, the game is at the Adelaide Oval; yet another away fixture and the third in a row at a venue outside of Victoria. One of the problems the Demons have these days is that they rarely have the luxury of true home ground advantage, something they have enjoyed just once since mid April.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

    • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

      The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.
