V-TV

As seen on pictobots, vidscreens and holodromes across Vanth, now beamed via technomystick satellite directly to the black hole metal plate in my skull, 100 million lonely mutants want their V-TV:

I think I vaguely remember this song-is that possible? I've never heard of Jonzun Crew, though.

Classic '80's stuff, there. What ever happened to 'fun' Rap?

Wow! Look at all the kitsch.

Thanks for Billy Ocean’s “Loverboy”. I saw part of that video clip ONCE when I was a toddler and it the picture of the inhuman rider in the beach has haunted me since. I finally know what it is.

Sham: I'm not really an expert in the genre, but I think party rap jams are still out there. They've kind of diverged from the main hip hop scene though, I think?

I just catch a buzz off those old synths and the gratuitous vocoder abuse. The Jonzun Crew album is long out of print, but you can score the whole thing here, uh, semi-legit (guessing you'll probably dig the rest of the linked blog too, some seriously excellent punk, hardcore, and new wave archaeology going on there.)

Edsan: Awesome!
*Viennese accent* Tell me about your childhood.

It's like you were destined for Mutant Future. Glad to help you make sense of it all.
