![]() ![]() Philadelphia Athletes: Good Sports Drive Straight! I really hope people didn’t have to be told to not store gasoline right in their bedroom closets, but I guess they did. I’m going to be extra careful to stay away from fire. This also added to the Philadelphia rap beef between Meek Mill and Cassidy last year, when Mill called it “the worst song in rap history.” Eh, as PSA raps go, it’s better than Don’t Copy That Floppy. Still, the best part comes at the 2:20 mark, when three producers in the studio look at each other and nod approvingly for their hard work of taking a beat from the most popular song of 2012. Great goal, sure, but one that probably didn’t need a full song. Instead, we got a straight public service announcement about wearing condoms. When I first saw the title of this song, I expected a corny parody sex jam. Last year, propelled by a catchy beat and its universal message of “rich people are hilariously tacky,” PSY’s “ Gangnam Style” shot up the charts across the world, shattered YouTube records and made him a household name.Īlso in 2012? Philadelphia rapper Cassidy released “Condom Style.” I did like the part when the cartoon dog low-fived the woman in the wheelchair. “In certain parts of Philadelphia, things were, uh, ruff.” Jesus. McGruff the Crime Dog – The Philadelphia Story This tops the Mike Schmidt PSA of a similar style because of its admission that “we need to come up with a solution.” Also, because it’s delivered by Beanie Sigel’s disembodied head. We’re losing our youth at a rapid pace.”) don’t rhyme, but they’d fit in any song. Sigel’s first three lines (“There’s a black cloud over our city. I like when rappers talk and their voices still sound awesome. As such, this is a PSA worthy of Big Al of “ Do Hugs Not Drugs” fame. That could be a good thing, actually the only PSAs I remember from my youth are the ones that were unbelievably weird or silly. ![]() ![]() Ah, did they have to position the camera so close to your face, though? It makes it weird. Albano was undoubtedly a great talker, and regularly shone on the microphone, but his in-ring work was less than stellar, and Sammartino was the first to see he would be much better as a manager.I agree, Mike Schmidt! Cocaine is no way to believe in yourself. The move came after Bruno Sammartino, the longest reigning world champion in WWE history, suggested to Vince McMahon Sr that the Italian American would be better suited to that role. When he first joined WWE, Albano was actually a wrestler, and spent several years as an in-ring competitor before making the transition into a managerial role in 1970. With over 16 years as a manager in the company, and more than 50 different clients, Albano had one of the most illustrious tenures in the history of the business, but isn't remembered quite as fondly as some of his managerial counterparts. This has never been more apparent than with Captain Lou Albano, whom, despite being one of the most successful managers in WWE history, has become massively under-appreciated over the years. ![]() With so many impressive managers having worked for WWE over the years, it can be easy for some to fall by the wayside, and not get the recognition they deserve for their legendary careers. ![]()
