    Hey, I've been meaning to follow up: Did LA Reid ever show up to pop his undoubtedly absent collar at that Iceburg-presided Bumpshop a while back?

    Oh you mean the old drummer from Pure Essence? Nah, he was a no-show. I hear he has a day job running some record label that keeps him sort of busy...
    But the party was live nonetheless. Iceburg was nice, word.

    Ha ha, yeah. I think every music nerd (myself included) has at least once imagined themselves coming face to face with a Famous Musician Known for One Thing and blowing their tiny, famous-musician mind by giving them props for their Pre-Fame Other Thing ("Billy Joel? Hey, it's nice to meet you...Yo, that Hassles record is my shit!"). I'd love to run up on LA Reid in Buckhead Diner or wherever and be all like:

    "Yo, aren't you that guy..."

    "...from the Pink video? 'You'll be a pop star'? [sigh] Yeah, that's me. What? You have a demo or something?"

    "...that used to drum for Pure Essence?"

    "!"

    (Or if I was feelin' bitchy like Millie, maybe I'd just stage-whisper to my man, "Herbie Hancock got bald, yo!")







    Actually, I'd never do any of that in a million years, but still.


    THAT WOULD BE AWESOME!

    I remember seeing J5 on MTV one time and Cut Chemist was complimenting Funk Master Flex on the Dueces Wild record, it was kinda geeky/funny.

    Damn I haven't thought about that Deuces Wild record in a million years. What was the name of that shit again? I would LOVE to get a copy of that... shit. DAMN that's my shit. I'm gonna go listen to "9MM Goes Bang" right now. That shit was RAW.

    I think it was Deuces Def, but man, my memory is really bad now. I never forgot shit like this before.

    Hmm I think maybe it's "Deuces IS Def" - that kind of sounds familiar.

    And you are saying... what?




    So I checked it is "Deuces Is Def." 33Third has it, I'm gonna cop. I saw the flip was Five Times The Rhyme" which I always thought was a Nicky Rap & Scratch song. I go Rambo and shit... need that shit.

    I just pulled out my copy and listened to it again, good stuff! KC and the Sunshine Band was cut up in Five Times The Rhymer.

    "Five Times A Rhymer" is the shit. I think Flex is pretty embarassed by that record, for whatever reason...

    That record is tough as shit to find too.

    Last time he was here Cut actually dropped that Deuces Wild radio promo (the one w/ the line, "You're taping this on Maxells!") from Chuck Chillout's KISS FM show from BITD mid-set. Yeah, safe to say he's a big Deuces Wild fan.
