The drum fill in Ton Loc's "Wild Thing" is exactly the same as Van Halen's "Janie's Cryin". The guitar parts are like 80% the same, too. 🎸 🕵️‍♂️

The prompt is Gang

“We’re All In The Same Gang” from the album of the same name, 1990

By the late 80’s, gang violence was reaching a peak in and around #LosAngeles. On the east coast, KRS-One had launched the Stop the Violence campaign and put together an all-star roster of #HipHop artists to release the anti-violence track “Self Destruction” in response to violence at #rap concerts; now a group of #LA rappers calling themselves The West Coast Rap All-Stars responded to a societal problem around them in the same spirit. Crafted around a killer (reportedly #JamesBrown) funk riff, “We’re All In The Same Gang” weaves together enough samples to stand as a creation of its own. Corny? Maybe. Sincere? I’d like to think so - but it had an undeniable groove, and what a showcase of all the West Coast rappers this kid had heard of, and a few I hadn’t.

An abiding memory of having a right laugh writing Funky Ford Cortina with Dustin in our office in Rathmines and sending the mad lyrics off for approval by Tone Loc who we needed permission from to do the comedy cover version of his hit ‘Funky Cold Medina’. And a month later he gets back and says ‘Yeah. Go for it!’ #GoodTimes #music #comedy #ToneLoc
