Rewound
Bonita, Bonita, Bonita


I’ve been thinking about Q-Tip lately, since I’ve seen him looking very well dressed and debonair in a number of recent paparazzi pictures. He looks quite different from the scruffy guy begging Bonita Applebum to put him on in this video, but that’s what the passage 17 years will do to you. I can’t imagine any Tribe Called Quest fan (or any hip hop fan of a certain age, for that matter) who won’t get nostalgic for the good ol’ days when they watch this (or any old Tribe song, for that matter) and think about what’s in rotation on BET and MTV today.

I remember thinking “what are prohylatics?” and realizing that I needed to get “crazy” of them. 17 years, huh. Really?

It’s nice to know I am not the only rap curmudgeon out there. All I have to say to you is amen!
