Hammer Pants...nothing else to say here!

On a lighter note today, let's take a minute to celebrate the parachute pants, also known as the Hammer Pants... C'mon, if you grew up in the city in the early 90's (that's before internet guys... the information highway was in construction then) there's a 68% chance you did own, at one point in time, a pair of parachute pants and you tried to imitate Mc Hammer's dance move. For a minute, I thought the lad was Irish and his name was McHammer (like we needed another white rapper like Vanilla Twist there! Sorry but seems like Eminem didn't get the memo or was the first vicitim of whitesploitation).
Looking at the video, this guy also had very flamboyant dance moves... just like an Irish dancer right?
Dude also has a blog now, check it out: MC Hammer Blog
Listen to the lyrics mates... actually don't! I love the part where he looks at a girl and says something that almost sounds like: "Just for a minute let's all do A bump" HAHAHA SPRITE!

Dawg! Hammer in the hood was non existent! We ALL hated him. None of us had parachute pants. Hammer had no talent whatsoever! As a dancer he was...yup you guessed it, also considered as wack. Steezo had better moves -Steezo actually kick his butt in a challenge apparently - Cannot say Hammer did not made $$ coming from the ghettos but what I'm sure of is without Suburbia - a strange and far off country four us back then - he would never made it so big. He was not Hip Hop he was marketing, just like Vanilla Ice. Eminem was not. He had skillz! He got fucked up, but boy he had skillz. - Must add I never bought anything from him either.
P.S.
Whoever enjoyed Hammer back then and cannot tell me what was his first BIG HIT SINGLE was just not a hip hop head. PERIOD. YEAH I said it!
