A True Random Ten

I've decided that my "random" on the old iPod is not at all what it says, so I'm going to do an R-10 from my Yahoo Launchcast cyberstation that I've created.

1. Bertha Butt Boogie - Jimmy Castor from Old School Boogie. This song is as funny as the title implies. It's a funky cut about a woman & her three sisters that have large asses. It was recommended by fans of Maceo Parker. I voted it a 3 out of 4 stars.

2. The Message (Gerald's Mix) - Cymande from Blueprint. Another group recommended by fans of Maceo & All The Kings Men. It's another funk groove, but it's pretty cheesey. This one gets a 1 out of 4, could do without hearing it again.

3. Let It Whip - Dazz Band from 20th Century Masters. Oh yeah, this one was a popular funky/diso'esque cut back in the 70's. You'd all know it if you heard it. "Let's whip it baby, Let's whip it right, Let's whip it baby...whip it all night."

4. Boss - Rick Boss from Port Of Miami. I have no idea who this is, but he sucks. This song was played cause it matches my genre preferences. Funny, I don't remember rating "not talent bad rap" as one of my genres. This guy is trying to rap about his loud speakers, peacock ring, his money & guns, as well as all the women he's dogged. And this guy making more money than me because?????? This one gets a "never play again" rating.

5. Life Is A Dance - Chaka Khan from Chaka. Who doesn't love some Chaka? I think she needs to make a comeback. I was so born in the wrong decade/culture. I gotta learn this drum groove, it's hella funky. It's got lots of hi-hat action which is indicative of the late 70's cocaine era in funk music.

6. Bossa - Donald Byrd from His Majesty King Funk. Don't know who this is, but it's a groovy little bossa-nova instrumental piece with trumpet, congas, guitar, bass, and drums. Not bad. It gets a 2 out of 4.

7. Be Easy - Young Hot Rod from Be Easy. This song sucks too. I like old school rap, all the new shit sucks ass. Another rating of "never play again" for this one.

8. In My House (12" Mix) - Mary Jane Girls from The Very Best Of. Too much disco & not enough funk in this one for me. It gets a 1 out of 4 rating.

9. Best Kept Secret - Diamond & The Psychotic Neurotics from Stunts, Blunts & Hip-Hop. Never heard of these guys, they were recommended by fans of Pharcyde. I dig them, this is the old school rap I was just talking about. If you like Pharcyde, check these guys out.

10. Back It Up - Urban Mystic from Ghetto Revelations II. No idea who this is, but the song is about big asses on the dance floor.

There you have it, a true random 10 from my Launchcast. I love that the 10 started with a 70's cut about big asses, and a present day rap about big asses. I couldn't have planned that if I tried. Good night.
