Sorry, but the first few mashups here seem forced and generic to me

The Black Star/Ramones one is pretty clumsy, but I like all the others.

Johnny Fever, Saturday, 16 June 2012 05:31 (fourteen years ago)

loving this, thanks johnny!

not everything works, but i do dig the black star/ramones mash. also: dead prez/pistols, black thought/DKs, tupac/x (especially this), and kanye/reagan youth. kinda wish the punk choruses had been left out, but small quibble.

punk and hip-hop AT THE SAME DAMN TIME

Sometimes I accidentally come across some video of you and remember that all this wiseass bullshit you pollute ILX with actually comes from a bald pussy in a trucker hat.

i can always buy hairplugs or a new hat. you'll always be the loser that liked mashups in 2012

Mang, I realize it's the core of your persona to shit on things you probably don't even hate as much as you pretend to (not to mention that you and I actually agree half the time on what's shit), but why just drop into random threads and barf all over the carpet?

Johnny Fever, Sunday, 17 June 2012 05:56 (fourteen years ago)

dogg, i wasn't even being that aggy, it was just a reference to a popular rap song

la musica de harry frogbs (Whiney G. Weingarten), Sunday, 17 June 2012 06:00 (fourteen years ago)

a rap song that almost sounds like it has a line where 'crazy' is rhymed with 'fugazi' so appropriate really.

Punk fans like rap! Whoa, wait a minute Whine-dawg. Maybe not that much.
