@MrJules09 You didn't get the joke obviously. His character was that he was from "deepest, darkest africa". There are Caucasian African natives anyway.
@Fanik10 Slick was the shit man. Teddy Long kinda reminds me of him but they stuck him as some lame babyface GM. I wish they'd bring back the managers. of course WWE doesn't give a flying fuck on what we wanna see.
my friend could dance just like akeem, it's all in the wrist, i miss managers from the eighties, their gimmick's were more important than the rassler's gimmick's
@Brod2121 Listen to both songs AND TELL ME there is no similarity!!!!!!!!!!! Fcuk that , there is no similarity! It's even around the same time era too. A heavy influence of black/white rapping at the time. This was pre-Aerosmith/Run DMC, pre-WMV
Well my friend, the problem is you are confusing Blondie's RAPTURE which I agree does sound similar to this and Sugar Hill Gangs RAPPERS DELIGHT@unicorn187
You a jive soul bro. LMAO! i bought the Piledriver 2 album back like 20 years ago on cassette tape when I was a kid and this song was on it. I fell in love with it and rewound it like 10 times a day. lol what a great student I was.
