We listen to Tone Loc’s Funky Cold Medina played with a sitar – Angelo’s latest experiment in a list that includes Warren Zevon funneled through a didgeridoo (an utter waste) and a recording of Star Wars to The Chronic Album (one million views on YouTube before George Lucas’ lawyers threatened to have Angelo’s shady ass deported if he didn’t take it down).
I sink back into Angelo’s couch and come to two different, but related conclusions. 1) Tone Loc is unique insofar as he has to be one of the world’s few self-deprecating rappers, 2) the sitar sucks, even when you’re high.
