Ridiculous rapp names

Spawned from the Damu The Fudgemunk thread. A lot of rappers and producers had/have some pretty laughable names. I mean, back in the late 70s/early 80s you'd have some MCs with slightly silly names like Prince Whipper Whip or whathaveyou. That was OK, dudes were having fun. But I think it really got out of hand with the indie rap boom of the late 90s, especially within the pseudo-scientifical braniac rap contingent. Wu Tang were partly responsible for this trend too. You know, Mykill-Anjel-O Da Sun Tucha, Myster.Onz D.R.I.F.T. an 'em.My memory fails me now, but I know I could find some doozies if I went through these old rap mags in the basement. Who's got me?

    You could produce it.

  • word, but I'd need to borrow your casio keyboard (no Fudgemunk)

  • el_sparkoel_sparko 884 Posts
    I don't own a casio, I own a Moog son.

  • VST? Weren't you after a Mellotron or something at some stage?

    And whilst we're on the subject; I haven't told you about my latest purchase have I...? Used twice in about 3 munfs

  • el_sparkoel_sparko 884 Posts
    Nah, a real one, no VST. Haha, I do want a mellotron but would never buy one, i'd need to build an extension to fit it in the house.
    What's the new purchase? Something "true school" i'm guessing, you can be the UK's Fudgemunk.

    FUN DMC

  • that's an album name. Listen to the album and you'll understand

    I dont find that title attractive at all.

  • that's not my fault. but that shoudln't stop you from listening to the album. If it didn't bother Chuck D it shouldn't bother you.

    That just means that album title wouldn't necessarily be a good genetic match for you to produce healthy children.

    I thought this thread was about ridiculous rapp NAMES, not the art behind it?

    And an endorsement from Chuck D doesnt change my opinion.

    Should i check for the last Ladybug album?

    Not to get all "hey thats my friend you are talking about!!!!" but honestly FUN DMC is such a great album name....


    b/w

    with a name like "BATMON"..... pots and kettles being black and glass houses related....

  • no, you shouldn't. But like i said, Fun DMC is an album not a name.

    now our actual group name, THAT"S A SHITTY NAME!

    So, do they rap about horror movies and stuff?

    Is it true that "People Under The Stairs" narrowly beat "Da Fried Green Tomatoes" when it came time to pick your name?

    I heard it was between "People Under The Stairs" and "Child's Play 3: Bride of Chuckie".

    Since we're talking about it...

    I love the album, but I do kind of hate the name (sorry Thes please still buy records from me. haha.)

    And this is coming from a guy who used to be in a group called Kemetic Suns with guys who called themselves Cumulous Kilojoule and Hypnotic The Native Sun.
