I don't really mind the rap, but I wouldn't exactly showcase it if I was selling my pals on Big Audio Dynamite.

The song remains one of my faves — the US Remix on the BAD Files is fab. 😎

Like I said, it’s not offensive. It’s just that graded on a curve against the entire history of rap, nothing on BAD albums ranks very highly and it shouldn’t really be your selling point for them.

Mom, we should've gotten the Fat Boys!

They did the rapping-type thing much better on tracks like Sightsee, which kills.

Fast forward to 3:35 or so.

A choice piece of supporting evidence. :cool:

If we're taking down names, I'm somewhere in the vicinity of Inder and Wolter, leaning more to Inder.
