Ring Ring Ring (Ha Ha Hey)

"Wasn't exaggerating at all sayin' I'm heartless
Before my album hit the charts I was just hittin' targets"


A-Wax - Streets Callin'
(From the upcoming Woodie World album; 2022)



... and speaking of beatjacks, how very apt that A-Wax remaking Woodie's The Streets Are Callin' Me has got me interested in 'Wax's new music. As soon as Suge hear this here, he gon' know it, man - the vibe is here to bring the real A-Wax back. He's doing a full Woodie homage album so there's a very real possibility we may get A-Wax over the cheap Cruel Summer facsimile of Norte Sidin'.

Bananarama - Cruel Summer
(From High Life album; 1983)



Yo KanYe Pest, I'm really happy for you and I'ma let you finish, but Bananarama had the best Cruel Summer of all time etc etc. From London to Los Angeles, please believe Brooklyn was in the house too.

  1. That Bananarama / Mike Tyson quote is timeless.

  3. I was pleasantly surprised with that new A-Wax after how disappointed I was with his last album both him & Philthy Rich fell victim to the ATL curse pretty badly.

  4. Can't believe Cruel Summer never made it to number one.

  5. It always features in the top 10 when Now 80s TV do their We Can't Believe This Didn't Make Number One shows.

    On the first day of the Cruel Summer video shoot they had no energy because it was boiling hot in New York. So, for the second day, the director got them some cocaine to liven them up. You can definitely tell which parts of the video were shot on the second day 😄

  6. Mind blown there's a Now 80s TV channel. Only broadcasts in Manchester, though.
