Guess What Tone Loc Got As A Father's Day Gift

Guess What Tone Loc Got As A Father's Day Gift For Father's Day, most fathers get underwear or socks. A lucky few get songs in their honor . But what did Tone Loc receive? A sh*tty ass trip to the clink after a domestic violence dispute with his child's mother. No major details have emerged but it seems as if the situation did get physical, cops were called to a Burbank, CA. apartment complex and the 45-year-old rapper was taken into police custody. Tone was booked and held on $50,000 bond. [TMZ]

Rob Sheffield Discusses New Book, Karaoke in New York

Filed under: News , Book Club Niki Kanodia Growing up, music and pop culture critic Rob Sheffield had role models both positive and negative. Among the former, he explained Wednesday night, as he discussed his new book, ' Talking to Girls About Duran Duran: One Young Man's Quest for True Love and a Cooler Haircut ,' at the Barnes and Noble store in Brooklyn, N.Y.'s Park Slope neighborhood, were his sisters. As Sheffield recalled, they would "get all the [...]

New Pornographers Take Requests for 'Deep Cuts' in New York

New Pornographers Take Requests for 'Deep Cuts' in New York Filed under: Concerts and Tours , News Even at full capacity, Brooklyn's Bell House holds a fraction of the New Pornographers ' fervent New York City fan base. Sunday night, inspired by the intimacy of the sold-out venue, the avowedly autocratic indie-pop supergroup took the rare step of opening the floor to requests for "deep cuts." "Ordinarily, we don't give a f--- about you people," lead singer, guitarist and primary songwriter Carl Newman (aka A.C. Newman when he's a solo act) jokingly told the audience, just [...]

ProTools: Proving What Anyone With Ears In The 1990s Already Knew

ProTools: Proving What Anyone With Ears In The 1990s Already Knew Tone Loc's "Wild Thing" and "Funky Cold Medina" sound an awful lot alike, according to a shocking video posted by some guy with a lot of time on his hands and a copy of The Greatest Two-Hit Wonders Of The 1990s . Call me obtuse, but I always thought that said similarity was what fueled the popularity of those two songs, in large part? [ Paul's Ponderings via Fark ]

Top 250 Albums of All-Time 169-160

#169 - What's The Story Morning Glory? - Oasis With grunge puttering out after the suicide of Nirvana lead man Kurt Cobain, Metal long since past it's glory days & punk still not having gotten it's second wind Oasis introduced the second British invasion. With the constant storyline of the ever-bickering Gallagher brothers it would seem music would suffer (it eventually did), but it was just the opposite. What's the Story Morning Glory? was one of the best selling albums of the 90s with 20 million records sold. The influence of the [...]

Bobby Evans – Freak-A-Zoid Robotz

Bobby Evans – Freak-A-Zoid Robotz Peep this crazy video from Bobby Evans ' smash hit Delicious Vinyl single "Freak-A-Zoid Robotz", directed by Marcus Herring . Think Tron and robots meet Daft Punk in a binary universe. "The visual look of the video was inspired by the beauty of low resolution pixel art in classic arcade games. I was intrigued by the idea that a face can still look beautiful even when it is scaled down to a resolution of 12 pixels tall." As Delicious [...]

Old School Mondays:: Tone Loc

Old School Mondays:: Tone Loc This is not your average OSM, as I usually try to leave the stuff white people like to the sites and books and whatever else that dudes' 15 minutes of fame has afforded him. However, it ties back to my earlier post, a recap of Joel Plaskett's show this past Saturday night, during which he gave a get well shout out to Tone Loc. We certainly want to do the same. But Joel mentioning Tone Loc brought to mind something I'd heard a while ago and meant to work into a post. A [...]

Ton Loc Collapses On Stage, Rushed To Hospital

Ton Loc Collapses On Stage, Rushed To Hospital If we had any word on whether this was a serious matter or not, we would be inclined to make some "Funky Cold Medina" joke. But since we still don't have any idea the cause of his collapse, all jokes will be held until a later time. From Perez Hilton (yeah, we know): Our former Celebrity Rap Superstar buddy seemed to be somewhat unconscious and had to be taken away in an ambulance. As for the reason he collapsed, no one's quite sure what [...]

Rock sick list: Tone Loc

It is quite hot in Florida, especially if you're playing out of doors. And Tone Loc is in his 40s now. So perhaps it's not entirely surprising he collapsed onstage after complaining about the heat. Mind you, going to play in Florida and complaining about the heat is a bit like doing a gig in Amish country and moaning about having to wind up the amps. And given that he's only got two songs that anyone would want to hear, it's not like he would have had to be out on stage for long, [...]

flashback friday?

flashback friday? Because I'm bored and my iPod was on point this morning, I decided to write up a short ode to the marvelous hip-hop of the early/mid 90's. My morning started off with Young MC's "Bust a Move", which I know isn't technically a 90's song but whatever. It made my morning SOOO much better. Then it played "Wild Thing" by Tone-Loc, but it played the Peaches remix that I have instead of the original. Kind of amazing. So here's a couple other favorite/guilty pleasures (plus a cover of Biz Markie's Just a Friend by a local band who are great....check [...]

Tone Loc: Loc-Ed After Dark (deluxe edition)

Tone Loc: Loc-Ed After Dark (deluxe edition) You might ask: Why would Delicious Vinyl re-release Tone Loc's 1989 debut Loc-Ed After Dark ? The real question is, Why not? I'm just as wary as anybody of these seemingly endless reissue cash grabs that essentially ask fans to pay for an album twice, tempting them with additional, unreleased material. But in this instance, I'm OK with this 20th anniversary deluxe reissue (especially because you can download the six bonus tracks individually at eMusic or Amazon without purchasing the whole album again, assuming you already own it, which you [...]

Tone at 20

Tone at 20 Many of you will already have heard the dope Peaches remix of Tone Loc's Wild Thing that has been floating around the last couple of years, well Delicious Vinyl have now decided it would be worth resurrecting the whole Loc'd After Dark album this month for a 20th Anniversary edition, with 6 new Bonus tracks. Interestingly enough the Peaches remix isn't included by the looks of things, neither is the Moguai [...]
