The eargasms one was a actual concept of a album. So NR that Rage put out would be a completely different album right?
-

Show us a video! :D

No thanks.... I will pass on that...lol. Head down to Venice Beach sometime and watch my boy Mr. Animation perform. You've got to pay him though. I once saw him scare a bunch of white folk by saying if he wasn't dancing for them he would be robbing them...lol. Sure enough people threw dollars in the hat :)

ha,ha,I canīt break anymore either,fuck I stopped breaking over 20 years ago. I can still pop tough.
This is pretty interesting;
white guy talking on all those N.W.A songs
http://www.dubcnn.com/connect/index.php?topic=139621.msg1452228#msg1452228
who is that guy?
on fuck tha police 2 he was like "you're gonna suck me and my partner's dicks or you're going to be on dead nigger bitch"
and on "just don't bite it" he was the guy advertisting 'the art of sucking dick'
he has a ton of other little talking appearances on Ruthless stuff, but those are the two that come to mind. i was listening to ATL's LLH the other day and heard him again and decided I finally need to know.

Funny thing Tanji,thanx to this board.
I brought back this book: Ego Trip's Book of rap lists (really good for research, ISBN 0-312-24298-0)
(http://formatmag.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/02/bookrev_egotrips.jpg)
Mike "Crazy Neck" Sims
Not only does is this studio rat's fretwork appear on several Ruthless productions,but his voice can be readily indenfied portraying crooked police officers and stiff,caucasian radio announcers on NWA's 100 Miles And Runnin' EP and Above The Law's Livin' Like Hustlers.

Ego Trip is the truth. I was kinda surprised when they did that white rapper show on VH1, but the more I thought about it, it was basically mocking everything that is wrong w/ hip hop.
