End Quote: Bang-Bang Boogie, Indeed
Today’s Daily Examiner quip comes from a YouTube commenter, who had this reaction to Michael Nutter’s mind-blowing rendition of the Sugar Hill Gang’s “Rapper’s Delight” at the end of his inauguration. So true, so true …
The last sound you heard was Frank Rizzo turning over in his grave.

Frank Rizzo was one of those rare individuals who really wasn’t moved by any type of music, but i think he would’ve liked Michael Nuter. personally, I like all kinds of music, and I don’t really consider talking to a beat “music”, but that’s just my opinion. I’m impressed, however, that the mayor memorized all those lyric. I’m sure it signifies great things and lower taxes for our fair city.

I am so happy that I stayed. It is great to be the one who showed the Mayor in a “Real” moment. He will never forget this. Rappin for the whole world to see. Let’s hope he does as good a job as Mayor. Another Philly Word Hip Hop History Moment. Holler!! www.myspace.com/phillyword
