Oh man! Look at how beat this thing is! Can you even imagine how many house parties this thing saw to be in this bad of shape? Can’t you imagine Kid N’ Play throwing a big pajama-jammie-jam and dropping the needle on track one and setting the whole place ablaze. Kris-Kross, Martin Lawrence and TLC would be there and Tisha Campbell would be standing in the corner looking all fine with her big smile toking a six paper joint. She’s pretty hot ya know? MC Ren could have her on her back with his lyrical genius in two seconds flat:
“Shoot a motherfucker in a minute
I find a good piece a’ pussy, I go up in it
So if you’re at a show in the front row
I’m a call you a bitch or dirty-ass ho
You’ll probably get mad like a bitch is supposed to
But that shows me, slut, you’re composed to”
How did this dude go on to be the least paid member of NWA? His prose is rivaled only by Whitman and Ginsberg.
*Edit*
On a somewhat related note, can one of you shirt printing dudes whip me up a few black shirts with white print with E on the front and his last will and testament on the back? I have a few weddings/confirmations to go to this year. Thanks in advance.

“I may not seem like a guy you would pick to preach a sermon. But I feel it is now time to testify because I do have folks who care about me hearing all kinds of stuff about what’s up.
Yeah, I was a brother on the streets of Compton doing a lot of things most people look down on — but it did pay off. Then we started rapping about real stuff that shook up the LAPD and the FBI. But we got our message across big time, and everyone in America started paying attention to the boys in the ‘hood.’ Soon our anger and hope got everyone riled up. There were great rewards for me personally, like fancy cars, gorgeous women and good living. Like real non-stop excitement. I’m not religious, but wrong or right, that’s me. I’m not saying this because I’m looking for a soft cushion wherever I’m heading, I just feel that I’ve got thousands and thousands of young fans that have to learn about what’s real when it comes to AIDS. Like the others before me, I would like to turn my own problem into something good that will reach out to all my homeboys and their kin. Because I want to save their asses before it’s too late.
I’m not looking to blame anyone except myself. I have learned in the last week that this thing is real, and it doesn’t discriminate. It affects everyone. My girl Tomika and I have been together for four years and we recently got married. She’s good, she’s kind and a wonderful mother. We have a little boy who’s a year old. Before Tomika I had other women. I have seven children by six different mothers. Maybe success was too good to me. I love all my kids and always took care of them. Now I’m in the biggest fight of my life, and it ain’t easy. But I want to say much love to those who have been down to me. And thanks for your support. Just remember: It’s YOUR real time and YOUR real life.”

this just got re-released as a 2xLP not too long ago
Just designed a bunch of new merch for Mr. E — I’ll keep you in mind if/when they go to print. They won’t have his last will and testament on them, but it’ll be a start.
Thanks Buske. I can’t tell you how fabulous I would look in one of these chillin’ on the corner of Crenshaw and 24th.
