info_outlineOn this episode of THAT ACTUALLY HAPPENED... we speak to our panel of DJ STANLEE, Chris Paige, and PanicBoy. We have them suffer through the awkward Rap lyrics of Ted Nugent.
Ted Nugent, the politically polarizing, extreme animal hunting, NRA super enthusiast rocker, from right outside of Detroit Michigan, finds himself dropping some rap lyrics on a very forgettable rap/rock track.
After the huge success of Tone Loc’s 1989 “Wild Thing” single, the HIP HOP giant DEF JAM records (or rather Rush Associated Labels) wanted a piece of this newly found Rap Rock gold rush. To cash in on this opportunity DEF JAM/RAL released THE DON’s 1991 album “WAKE UP THE PARTY”. To give the album more rock "cred" they hired the “Wang Dang Poontang” artist himself, Ted Nugent. The Nuge does an interesting interpretation of Rap lyrics on the song "My Big 12inch”. Me and the crew break it all down. .
The rest of the podcast we explore: What is Hip-Hop and what is not Hip-Hop, What are some of the worst rap names in Hip-Hop history, we get into a funny discussion about the rap group the Young Black Teenagers and Rachel Dolezal. In the end, we shout out to our very dear friend, and the very beloved Rick D. (RIP) of the Tri-Tone nightclub in downtown Philadelphia. This is a funny episode, please check it out.
