RAIDERZ OF THE DARK-BLACK-STARLINER GET JUICE

THIS WEEK'S YOUTUBE RAID:
When Foxy (Bad Girl of the year, 96 Pam Grier) samples Jamaican classics, the people come together:

FOXY BROWN - "OH YEAH"

I've been watching a wide assortment of full-length gangsta classics on youtube; blast from my past=lots of raiders caps; start here:


Some really nice garage-y dub lamentation from new Hyperdub draft-pick DARKSTAR:
Darkstar - Need You

And my new #1 summer jam rescued from winter, courtesy of the benevolent WORD THE CAT:
Squeezer f/ Nature - Yote Ni Yale Yale (Word The Cat Screw)

(Note: Mr. C, if you're not down with me posting this link, don't worry, no one reads this blog.)

Balanced out by recent exploration of past obsessions (I guess I never became un-obsessed):

THE SMITHS - "THE QUEEN IS DEAD" (Directed by Derek Jarman)

DUH.
