The bass is set on maximum fart. This is a Parliament backing track right?

Back when that video came out, MTV actually still played music, and they played this one a lot.

Bummer. I liked his music. Eventually it is the fate we will all see.

Yep, with Michelle Pfiefer in the video. Had that song stuck in my head the other day.

Having grown up “in tha hood”, Coolio is definitely part of the soundtrack of my youth. This is a bit of a bummer for me.

Wrong artist, sigmonkey.

Parody is generally a compliment to the original artist. Weird Al paid homage to many, as he did here.

Weird Al can finally stop watching his back. I am definitely down with Hip Hop when it has a strong funk groove underneath. My run playlists have a lot of it.

Sounds vaguely familiar to me. That's about it.
