Ronson's early record with Ghostface Killah is fucking brilliant.
He is a good producer, whether you like the songs or not...

And I have a secret so dark I can barely even think about it, let alone post it on here.

Is it to do with MASSIVE DRUGS?

(, Wed 21 Jul 2010, 15:50, Reply)
No.
EDIT actually in a sense yes, because one of the reasons I like getting fucked up so much is that I can temporarily forget about this thing.

I wish I hadn’t mentioned it now. Subject closed, I’m afraid.

Is it to do with David Bowie?

Is it the one about you being Jon Bon Jovi?
Edit - I don't know what your being so cagey about, "Crossroads" sold in the millions

Did you kiss a girl and like it?

That was my first mistake.

Catharsis is on the house in here, cleanse your soul.
..and yes, it was deffo the production that drew me to the track, very interesting compared to the shit storm of inadequacy and mediocrity that constitutes todays popular music.

my mate is Swiss
and when he was young he directly caused a cow to fall off a cliff. Is it worse than that?

It is if the reason it was next to a cliff edge was to get it to push back harder.

I'm fairly sure that was not the reason
I think he was too young to have even considered it

A very great deal, yes.

Not yet, he wasn't
But Wikipedia is, in theory, open for anybody to contribute to...

I've tried that before
they tend to frown on outright lies

A friend of mine tried it
And they described it as, among other things, "Patent Nonsense," which I think must be something of an achievement in itself...

I can't remember what I changed now
it took ages though, and was plausibly written. Didn't last long :-(

how do people get away with posting that celebrities have died when they haven't then?

I don't know, but I suspect if it's just an edit to an existing article
It can go unnoticed for long enough that a rumour can spread.

My friend's mistake was to write an entire biography of his friend, entitled, "[NAME], the Cross-Dressing Physicist."

You can see why it didn't get past the mods.

That's really terrible, but slightly ace too.

it gets pretty much that reaction from everyone
except his wife who thoroughly disapproves.

my mate is never sure whether to feel guilt or pride

did he just shove it?

True
'Ooh Wee' is the business.

When that came out
I thought we had a new Pete Rock or Premier on our hands. Ah, youthful ignorance...
(, Wed 21 Jul 2010, 16:14, Reply)
Agreed
Even if it did go by the ridiculous title of "Ooooh Eeee". However I think it's fair to say that most of the credit for the record's quality goes to Ghostface rather than Ronson
(, Wed 21 Jul 2010, 16:17, Reply)
Yes and no
- the beat's a lovely bit of 70s disco rap style, but Ghostface is a quality MC without doubt. One of my rarest new-skool hip hop records is a 1-sided copy of his 'Daytona 500' where he rhymes over Bob James' 'Nautilus'. Fucking love it.
(, Wed 21 Jul 2010, 16:20, Reply)
I remember making the rookie mistake of dismissing Ghostface out of hand when his debut solo album was released,
simply because he was in Wu-Tang and after Ol' Dirty Bastard's ridiculous Return to the 36 Chambers I was firmly of the opinion that they should all shut the fuck up unless RZA was providing the beats

Silly me

The proliferation of dodgy Wu-Tang LPs ruined their mystique for me.
Killah Priest etc? Fuck off.
(, Wed 21 Jul 2010, 16:42, Reply)
Absolutely
I will defend all three of Method Man's Tical albums with the pointy end of a Camberwell Carrot, but that's more for the man's innate skills and sense of humour than any association with the likes of Inspectah Deck
