Why didn't God take JD Vance instead of J.D.L from Cold Crush Brothers?


"And when I'm boppin' away I hear a lotta them say
'damn, I wanna be like the L someday!'"


Cold Crush Brothers - Fresh, Wild, Fly & Bold
(From Fresh, Wild, Fly & Bold 12" single; 1984)



I don't care about American politics but the post title's point still stands. R.I.P to Jerry Dee Lewis from Cold Crush Brothers. Goodness gracious, Fresh, Wild, Fly & Bold is a great ball of fire. A perfect 1980s Rap song where Cold Crush finally got their shit together in the studio as a riposte to the emergence of Run-D.M.C. I hope Heaven got a stage at The Dixie for the the L that rocks so well.

N.Y.C bonus beats: alas, Maino's Rumors 2026 is a rubbish sequel to one of my absolute favourite songs from the DVD era of Rap. Stick to the spodcasting with Gym-bore Jones, m8, and plz don't think about recording a sequel to your one great mixtape deep cut.
