And soon to be 'Gone Bad' whenever that comes out. Gotta be soon, right? I just got hipped to it and need it bad.

I always have something off the chronic
and "Ain't no fun" at anytime you can pull down the volume fader and hear tons of girls say things like "and you even licked my balls"

No doubt that's another one that's always with me.

Last week there were these white, dreadlocked, dirty hippy dudes with acoustic guitars that were an opening act at this gig I did. I was like "wtf?" then they got on and the first song they did was an acoustic version of "It Ain't No Fun".
Everyone in the place was like

I have to give names because I can't find pictures of most of my current staples.

"West Up!"--W.C., Ice Cube, Mack 10 (This is like the theme song for my weekly)

"Grand Verbalizer, What Time Is It?"--X-Clan (I always find a way to play this)

"Just Hangin' Out"--Main Source (I don't know if this will ever leave my crate)

"It's Great To Be Here"--Jackson 5 (The remix on Disco Juice...killer)

Anything by Mantronix, though favorites are "Needle to the Groove," "Listen to the Bass of Get Stupid Fresh, Part II," "Gangster Boogie," and "Join Me Please (Homeboys Make Some Noise)"
 
i tend to value LP's that have more than one dope track... saves yr back...

temps- solid rock
jackson 5- get it together
nico gomez- ritual
invaders- spacing out
ray baretto- acid

i am hung over and my brain is fogged, have to add more later when i am home...
 
When I was DJing it was:

Dimples D - Sucker DJ (Genie Remix)

Rockmaster Scott - Roof Is On Fire

MC Shy D - Shake It

I guess those are obvious though.

Not So Obvious:

Sometimes 'Esquivel - Mucha Muchacha' got a good response. I'm serious. I remember dropping that shit out of nowhere once and the floor actually filled up.

these all make me feel real at home. All pretty common, but great music.

Yeah, they remix the flipside track. Wrong Alley Street or something like that. That Dynamo Productions is fiyah no doubt.

You'd have to ask Ol(rock)ski. I'm pretty sure they're all sold out. I know I have zero copies left besides the few I stashed for my kids.

i dont think Lonnie liston Smith's Expansions has ever not been in my "crates." I love playing that track late night. You can double up on it for ever, and then just let it play out. Everybody loves this track, Even the "I dont dance headz" will bust some bennington hippie shit. Plaent Rock mixes into this so nicely as well. oh and that cut shadows is great for loungy bar scenes.
