video friday - early 80s and ANTE UP

[picodulce]

Two bad videos... but first, one that made me laugh. Some of you (who know the hippity hop) probably recognize MOP's "Ante Up". It's the kind of song that makes you think long and hard about wildly punching your fists around in a manner that would hurt someone - it's rap mosh music.

Well, what if Bert and Ernie did Ante Up? See the results below

Now I want to see the 'Ante Up' remix with Cookie Monster as Busta and Prairie Dawn as Remy.

CLAP THAT FOOL

I laughed out loud.

Is it me, or do Busta and Remy Ma take away from the song? It's like they're trying too hard. When I heard the original in a club - even one filled with a calm mix of diverse people (or Bob's -or- 205, which Dora and many other NY'ers know), it made me want to beat people up. It's infectious and thuggerific!

It's not just you, but the MOP verses on the remix are official. (Though I don't know why Granny would be at your stash-house. That's just trouble waiting to happen.)

I have the instrumental track, too, and it still angries up the blood.

I'd seen it (as mentioned above the video, silly!) - I thought it was okay, but kind of... too literal. It wore on me after a while...
