People knew he was a pop act and for the kids and old folks who weren't going to be jamming to Das FX.

I'm not going to go on a hiphop message board stating how big of a fan i was of hammer i was then, and how i still am today.
And it doesn't negate the fact that i'm still an avid... and i'll go so far as to say as big of a hiphop head as any of the Coli's elite (i don't do vinyl, but i got original pressings of cd's that will make your local Silver Platters shiit their pants).
Because you listen to hiphop, you're no longer considered a true hiphop head for having an interest in top 40 music, regardless of how bubble gum it is. This is why i always got into it with the back packers who shiited on diddy and no limit in the late 90's. But when i ran into them in the 2000's at a club/bar or class reunion or some similar type shindig, i would revisit the topic of mainstream/pop rap and ask them why they took it so seriously, and why they were adamant about being such hardcore opponents to the genre? Most times out of ten, they'll tell me that they were being too stubborn and had to do "What they thought was real".
To this day, i still don't give a fukk.
And i'll still have 2 Legit 2 Quit blaring out of the speakers.
MC Hammer was a quintessential part of my adolescence. And so were the Kris Krosses, ABC's, Joey Lawrences, Mr. Coopers, PM DAWN's, and anything else that was deemed "corny" by so called "purists and enthusiasts".
Sure it was what saturated the market. But if i didn't feel like listening to it and required something of more substance and more substantial/required more mindful involvement... i think we had tapes and compact discs to fill that void.
But to this day, there will always be those who are just too fukkin' tool for school.
Do your cool.

I pray to god that no other third string rapper from the 90s starts doing what this motherfukker is. He thinks he holds so much weight because he was apart of brand Nubian. I can't wait til someone whoops his ass. More power to anyone who can sit through all his yappin.
