Let’s not make this the next trend, please. Somewhere, Young MC...

the chrome ball incident (Free subscription) | 11/06/2009

a little carroll is never a bad idea. honestly, i often wonder if EMB would've been as much the phenomenon if it wasn't for mike's questionable part blowing it up like it did. multiple songs, numerous cameos, countless firsts.... shit is truly epic (and without question still in my all-time top 3). some parts just seem to capture a moment in time perfectly and that clip is definitely one of them. regardless...
