I watched Peter Gabriel: Secret World Live (1994) on Prime/IMDb TV for the first time. Amazing show. Very theatrical and highly entertaining. There are some lower resolution videos and individual songs from the show on YouTube. Don't waste your time with those. See it, beginning to end, on the biggest screen you can.

"Beware of The Boys" by Panjabi Mc ft Jay Z. Reporters interviewed that dude Yang the other day. When asked what his favorite JayZ song was, Yang's answer was basically "ummm, umm, you know the one where he shouts out Brooklyn, laughs and then quotes Biggie." Any real Jay Z fan knows that the best Jay song is the one with Hindu beats layered under the Knight Rider theme song. You can't really remember the name of said song just that it was catchy AF It has to be the most political song I've heard Jay Z put out. The year is 2003 and we begin with Jay's first verse: "Move ur body lika snake mama Make me wanna put tha snake on ya Im on my 8th summer still hot, the 8th wonder All i do is get bread, i take wonder I take one of ya chics straight from under ya arm pit The black Brad Pit I mack till 6 in the AM All day Im P-I-M-P I am simply attached to tha track like symphony" The Black Brad Pitt? I don't know about all that but just roll with it. Like the great Nas said, Beyonce isn't with him because of his good looks. However Jay Z brings something to the table that B definitely enjoys. We can't deny that. Jay's 2nd verse: "We rebellious, we back home, screamin' leave Iraq alone But all my soldiers in the field, I will wish you a safe return But only love kills war when will they learn? It's international Hov, I been havin' the flow Before Bin Laden got Manhattan to blow Before Ronald Reagan got Manhattan blow" Did Jay Z drop an Iran Contra reference? He did, but I never noticed it because that Knight Rider beat is just so awesome! I believe in the mid 90s Timbeland and Magoo also sampled the knight rider theme song, so much magic in it. Here is the video I never knew existed to Panjabi's Beware of the boys
