    "Glee" for me, is the "Sgt. Pepper" album of 90's hip-hop.

    And they're Canadian, eh...

    And now I'm going to have "Drinking in LA" in my head for a couple of days. I don't mind though, it's a pretty good song.

    And they're Canadian, eh...

    Huh! I actually didn't know that!

    That whole album is a masterpiece from God. I could rant for hours about it...

    Yup... Its one of those bands that you think should've been more popular than they were, but really its good that they weren't - just so you have "bragging rights" amongst your friends when you can boast about how great they are and nobody has a clue what you're talking about... but will gladly listen to your praise as long as you're the one supplying the drinks.

    Yeah me too but I also played the shit out of "Supermodel", "Couch surfer"
    and "Ceci n'est pas une Chanson", well really the whole album actually.

    Bizarre white-trash stories about waitresses in greasy rundown diners, Tim Horton promo-cups and "No no no, I didn't use your pay-per-view... I figured
    it was free... Can I crash on your couch again? Somebody took my keeeeeeys..."

    My favorite Canadian "hip-hop" group... I actually call them Canadian
    gangsta rap... is Red Ants. "Dirty Space Alchemy" is the bomb!

    Never heard of 'em... will check it out.

    Canadian gangsta-rap you say? Do they rap about traffic on the Gardiner or one's colour of parka interpreted as intimidation by others?

    Ahh, gangsta-rap. I want "Just don't bite it" by NWA played at my wedding.

    No. Other than a reference to "down in GT" they don't mention Canada, or
    its politics, on any of the songs I have listened to. Of, if they do, it
    is via an "inside joke" that a non-Canadian probably doesn't understand.

    I don't even think they mention ice hockey or Tim Horton's. Or hosers!

    Just for curiousity, assuming this pandemic ever ends and I travel again,
    which color parkas should I be avoiding when visiting Canada? I don't want
    to upset the PM and get permanently kicked out of the country! :O

    Ahh, gangsta-rap. I want "Just don't bite it" by NWA played at my
    wedding.

    I actually dated someone once who would have thought that idea was funny,
    but would have killed me if it was actually played. The rest did not even
    have that good a sense of humor.
