Generic list post: February 2025

Busy Bee - Suicide
(From Running Thangs album; 1988/YouTube; 2018)



Obligatory wrap-up post of those songs I've played most during the month when I found out that Busy Bee dropped a video for his 1987 classic Suicide in 2018. Melle Mel co-wrote that song and coached Busy Bee's flow and it shows dunnit? I was thinking this must be the most belated Rap video ever until I noticed that LL dropped a video for Rock The Bells last week for its 40th anniversary.

O.Z. - It's A Black Thing (1990)
Dru Down - I Rock (2002)
Juvenile ft. Mannie Fresh - Party (2024)
OnlyHeaven - In Here (video) (2025)
OnlyHeaven - Text (2025)
Mello Buckzz ft. G-Herbo - Hmm... BD (2024)
Mello Buckzz ft. Monaleo - Move Pt. 2 (2025)
Ezale - Can U Blame Me (2025)

“Monster? We’re British, you know.” Horror Express is such a fun Cushing & Lee collabo.

Need to see Night Moves. R.I.P. Gene Hackman!

Might be the collabo where they have the most chemistry together?

Had to squeeze Night Moves in last night. Gonna rewatch Mississippi Burning over the weekend.

love this busy bee video i feel like more rappers should shoot videos to songs decades later BUT they should absolutely not be re-recording old songs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0bg9_Iq5Jmw

🤮 why dey do dat dere?

5 80s Rap songs I want videos for:

Busy Bee - Making Cash Money
Spoonie Gee - Street Girl
Ice-T - Soul On Ice
Too $hort - City Of Dope
LL Cool J - My Rhyme Ain't Done

Definitely the most chemistry together. Cushing and Lee share the most screen time in Horror Express than any of their other collabos. Also, Lee was looking after him, since his wife had recently passed away. Talked him into doing the film.

Ah. A beautiful late-career bromance.

Who Framed Roger Rabbit? is a movie that shouldn’t work at all yet works so beautifully

Married With Children is a stone cold classic. Hope you keep watching.

Been loving the Dru Down playlist you made

I'm a big fan, but I'd never seen series 1 and 2 before. Got Series 2 cued up next.

Kelvin Mack10zie said...

Finally got to see that shit on the big screen.

Night and The City is a real banger.

Caught that at the cinema too. Had never heard of it before. That fight between the 2 IRL wrestler blokes is definitely proto-They Live.
