Some show and prove rhythms about rides:
"I got bodyguards, I got two big cars
That definitely ain't the whack
I got a Lincoln Continental and a sunroof Cadillac."
Sugarhill Gang, "Rappers' Delight," -- 1979
***********
"I got a big long Caddy, not like a Seville
And written right on the side it reads:
'Dressed to Kill."
Run-DMC, "Sucker MCs," -- 1984
**********
"Hit the boulevard in my AMG
Ladies catchin' whiplash tryin' to glimpse the T"
Ice T, "6 'N the Mornin," -- 1987.
**********
F***the past, let's dwell on the 500SL
the E&J and ginger ale
Notorious B.I.G., "One More Chance" -- 1994
**********
Picture me rollin'in my 500 Benz
2Pac, "Picture Me Rollin" -- 1996
**********
No matter how you try you can't stop it
I catch ya stuntin' in the
Bentley coupe cockpit
50Cent, "Like My Style" -- 2003
**********
Church's chicken in my Lambo
Gucci Mane, Stupid Wild" -- 2009
**********
Lambo-mercy-lago
She go wherever I go
whereever we go, we do it pronto
Kayne West. "Mercy" -- 2012
**********
What goes around comes around
in the form of karma
Nah, that's probably just me
ridin' around your town in a Fisker
Slaughterhouse, "Weight Scale" -- 2012
This blog will expand on themes and topics first mentioned in my book, "The Automobile and American Life." I hope to comment on recent developments in the automobile industry, reviews of my readings on the history of the automobile, drafts of my new work, contributions from friends, descriptions of the museums and car shows I attend and anything else relevant.
