What made king t’s jointz ill was how he rocked over those meters samples. Like an old lord finesse track. True indeed though… straight poison wrapped in hiphop foil like candy to babies.

The king t joints were classics. The wu tang one i thought would be brought back and put to use. We heard it in an interlude faintly on the purple tape. ODB rock on.

i clearly remember a St. Ides ad–that i haven’t heard since Marley Marl In Control on WBLS last millenium–which featured someone singing:

S…T…PERIOD/ CROOKED I-D/TO THE E/TO THE ESSSSSS!

the King T commercials played first on NY rap radio, then several of Cube’s versions took over, such as the one keatso referred to, where Cube made claims about St. Ides increasing the girth of one’s member.

the tracks were dope and that made them even more memorable. that Ra joint is harder than many full-fledged songs from then to now.

Dope ads. This CD from DJ Drank has got them all on I think. http://loresviscera.blogspot.com/2009/04/dj-dranks-greatest-malt-liquor-hits.html

There was a couple of 12′s which had about 8 ads on each that DJ Drank put out about 5 years ago.

They put shit right in our faces and we consume it. Malt liquor ruins your physical as well as your mental. Once you have knowledge of self and you understand the game, these songs aren’t that dope. If white people don’t drink it, something has to be wrong with it. No white rappers ever promoted this poison. Or do they promote crack, but we can care less about our communities and our children and buy into to this nonsense. Not trying to be on a soapbox but this shit just rubbed me the wrong way. Especially the Rakim joint. How can you change your religious views for a check? I know it’s done everyday but that doesn’t make it acceptable. We have to get off the bullshit and realize that we can make a
POSITIVE difference for our youngin’s..

Just wait a few years until the true adverse effects of drinking this shit combined with smoking blunts becomes known to the world. An entire generation is fucked…straight poison.

Has blatant, racially exploitative product endorsement music ever been this good?

How can rap fans be mad at these?
