Bust a Move

Young MC is like the hired band.

Um, but he's in it and he's on screen and everybody's dancing to Bust a Move-

... and it's fun and it's great and I love that movie.

I knew you'd like this little tidbit, Pam.

He also plays bass for Young MC's Bust a Move.

Oh, I didn't know that.

Yeah.

All right.

For my first Stamp Pick, I am going with Bust A Move, the one-hit wonder from Young MC, whose real name is Marvin Young.

Uh, quick, name three Young MC songs.

Yeah, right, my point exactly.

He was also on the same record album as another rapper, uh, doing the fun type rap at the time, Tone Lōc.

So there's that.

Uh, interesting factoid, Bust A Move won the Grammy Award for Best Rap Performance in 1990.

It helped, uh, push rap kinda further into the pop mainstream radio rotation, I guess you would say, at the time when the genre was still not as popular as it would become.

Whatever your electromagnetic fields are doing to everybody, your EMFs, which we covered the other day on the show.

Oh, Bust-a-Move.

[laughs] I think it was unbelievable.

It was.

You're unbelievable.

Bust-a-Move was Young MC, wasn't it?

But he's sing- Here, I'll f- You go ahead.

Okay.

The crate full of exploding hockey pucks, that is.

Lasted a couple of minutes while blasting Bust a Move by Young MC.

Said she wanna dance cause she likes the groove So come on fatso and just bust a move

before the situation devolved into totally fucked.

I switched to the next track as I yelled, HASTER! HASTER! HASTER! The next track came on.
