Reasons why I love YouTube # 62

Because the video for Newcleus' Jam On It is now on there in high quality. It's not quite pixel-perfect HD, but you can now appreciate the texture of Cozmo D's bowler hat if you're ever considering writing a think piece about how Cozmo was on that Mr Benn shit a good decade before Master P, 2Pac, or Nate D-o-double-g:

Newcleus - Jam On It
(From Jam On Revenge album; 1984)


Not tryna blow anyone's spot here, but there's a dutty little rumour floating around that Cozmo was the one who ordered the hit on 2pac in revenge for 'Pac jacking his trademark studded leather chest-belts look for the All Eyez On Me cover photo shoot. I never seen a man die 'til I seen a man nick another man's S&M slave swag on the sly:

All rap videos from the mid 80s are amazing.

Wiz Khalifa and Young Thug both ganked their whole images from that clip, imo.
