i could not sleep last night and for whatever reason had one of my obsessive moments where i had to find and listen (or re-listen as i used to OWN all of this on vinyl) to songs from that glorious window (say ’80 to ’83) where new wave bands recorded rap songs. i still DJ “Wot” by Captain Sensible, and i would spin “Funky Man” by Dee Dee Ramone but i gave the twelve inch single that i had to my friend Sia a few years ago. Dee Dee (King) was a little late to the rap game anyway. doesn’t fit in the window of which i speak. of which i speak? word. anyway, it wasn’t just Debbie Harry busting on about Fab Five Freddy now was it? ”of which i speak?”
