DJ Evil Ninja's Shrine of Sound

Not an actual DJ, but I play one in my mind. West-sider rider. Constantly blazing 90s hip hop & R&B. Preoccupied and dedicated to the preservation of the motion of hips. Moonwalking on the dark side of the moon. Looking, searching, seeking, finding.

A Note on SME

It looks like Sony Music Group (SME) is blocking videos from YouTube from playing on Tumblr which, of course, is some bullshit. This means that a decent portion of my posts are now fubar. The links are still good, but you’ll have to click through to watch/listen on YT directly. Wonderful.

New York, get yourself together, And drive your funky soul. Let your body pop, And let your feelings flow. Raise up, get yourself together, And drive that funky soul.

As a young one, growin’ up broke, me and my peoples Had to sell coke, I guess we all in the same boat. Thinkin’, plus drinkin’ that ninety-proof, Layin’ on the roof sayin’, “We need a next man to shoot.”

It’s Snoop Doggy Dogg on the solo tip, Still clockin’ grip, and really don’t give a sheeit About nuttin’ at all, just my Doggs, steppin’ through the fog, And I’m still gonna fade em all With the gangsta shit that keeps ya hangin’. How many hoes in ninety-four will I be bangin’? Every single one, to get the job done As I dip, skip, flip, right back to 2-1, Where the sun be shinin’ and I be ryhmin’; It’s me, Snoop D-O-double-G, and I’m climbin’.

However, to sever, we could never, So hold up the peace sign and stand together. Take heed to the words that I manifest, And when I’m through speaking, Marley Marl’ll do the rest.

Have you ever went over a friend’s house to eat, And the food just ain’t no good? I mean the macaroni’s soggy, the peas are mushed, And the chicken tastes like wood. A-so you try to play it off like you think you can, By saying that you’re full, And then your friend says, “Mama, he’s just being polite - “He ain’t finished, uh-uh, that’s bull!”

The Sugarhill Gang - Rapper’s Delight (Full Version)

*This is one of the first songs I ever learned, and one of the first songs I ever taped off the radio, so it HAD to be the first song I posted here. From 1979…
