Sandenuts' Fall Shuffle

I told Nighttrain my list would be complete on Friday, but I just got off my shift and I am on way too much caffeine to do Physiology or sleep, so peep game suckas...

17 Reasons - "17 Reasons"
I haven't listened to this song in years, man I miss how much bay area gangsta rap just absolutely kills it! This is off the 17 Reasons movie soundtrack, Bay Area Norte's, most of which are not alive or walkin the streets these days, this is not for the faint of heart.

Good Riddance - "This is the Light"
Good Riddance S.C Punk rock at it's finest, need I say more?

James Taylor - "Shower the People"
Now I know why I don't put the shuffle on. Don't get me wrong, I love this song, but after 17 Reasons and Good Riddance I don't feel like "showering my love". There is a time and a place for Mr. Taylor, and it's definitely not after your 24 hour shift in East Oakland.

The Abyissinians - "Mark of the Dub"
Awesome Jam. I love this group, in my humble opinion best reggae band of all time.

M.O.P - "Warriorz"
WOW! I haven't listened to this album since I was 16! How could you not love a rap duo with the name "Monkeys on Parole". "I'll have yo ass laid out for months, on a beep machine with a shit bag and a I.V., try me mothafucka". Couldn't have ended this experiment on a better note.

I love that your shuffle dug up some deep classics in your collection.

The Abyissinians = "best reggae band of all time" !??!

Aren't you forgetting Musical Youth? Songs like "Pass The Dutchie" don't just write themselves, my friend.

Hence the "I love this group, in my humble opinion..." qualifier.

Hahahah, I know, I read that. I'm just trying to start up some static ;)

I know that was a bold statement, but some of my best college memories involve a keg of summerfest, beer pong, girls in revealing cloths, and the Abyssinians on the stereo, so I am a little partial I guess.

Haha, don't worry and no disrespect. I really just wanted to use my once in a lifetime opportunity to plug a Musical Youth- "Pass The Dutchie" reference :)
