buc buc buc - T-Bone - Lyrical Assassin

Man, fall is a busy time of year.  Which means you'll have to wait a bit on that second installment of the Christian Hardcore magnum opus I'm working on, and also for some of these other characters to squeeze out some time for some posts, but in the meantime, I've got a little treat for you. 

It turns out that a good friend of mine loves this blog, despite being, as near as I can tell, neither Christian, nor a connoisseur of 1990s Christian alternative music.  I think for her it is more anthropological.  This same friend and I were arguing the other day (right after she gave me shit about the lack of regular posts) about which of us had the deeper knowledge of 1990s hip-hop, each demurring to the other's expertise. 

And so, Peterson, this one's for you.  I maintain that I still have giant holes in my knowledge of 90s hip-hop, but I do know about T-Bone, and even saw him once.  I think you were at Cypress Hill that night.

Discussion Questions:

1) How about that crew?!  I'm guessing they're from Victory Outreach or some other such place, looking all thugged out and talking about shooting demons.

2) JR2, there's some bright orange pants in the breakin' scenes - didn't you used to own those same ones?

3) The word biggity has fallen out of use.  Please discuss, using at least one example from the song.

4) JCTV.
