Most rappers are big bloody fibbers. Some of their boasts are so unlikely they have us stroking our chins and saying ‘Jimmy Hill’ (sorry if we lost both our American readers there). The Fat Lace Statisticians actually got together and listened to every rap record ever and worked out that if all the people who rappers claimed to have killed had actually been killed, the only people left in the Universe would be Floella Benjamin and the roster of Babygrande Records. Which is why we like honesty in rap records. Heavy D wasn’t ashamed to point up his chubbiness in his Jean Knight sampling classic ‘Mr Big Fat Cunt’. Superlover Cee spoke for us all when he pointed out that ‘Girls Act Stupid-Aly’. They do. Tell it like it is. Which is why we decided to select a couple of our favourite honest hip-hop moments, and ask you to nominate yours.
Perhaps X-Clan’s ‘In the way of the scales’ speaks to you because Brother J was always getting in the way at those Blackwatch weightwatchers meetings you used to attend. Maybe you admire Spice-1’s ability to taunt the law with his ‘I’m the fucking murderer’. Charges are pending. Us, we’ll go for Funkmaster Wizard Wiz’s olfactory self-awareness, and Young ‘D’ Boyz’s ‘Selling Cocaine As Usual’, from their killer ‘Straight Game’ LP. Although the latter do undermine themselves by printing on the label - “We do not advocate the selling of drugs or the use of firearms; items shown in photo are props.” Bottlers.
