Everyone knows Party All The Time right? Well, Eddie Murphy came back to the scene with an album in 1993. It was interesting because it had a pretty stellar cast at the time. He was able to get a ton of artists to sing one word on the song Yeah like MC Hammer, Stevie Wonder, Luther Vandross, and Janet and Michael Jackson. He had Shabba Ranks on lead single I Was A King which was terrible and then Michael Jackson again on Whatzupwitu, which was bad as well, but still fun at the same time.
– Why is Ed in a wife beater? Probably to show off his new physique. Though I wasn’t really impressed with that double bicep shot.
– I couldn’t really see Mike’s lipstick in black and white, but when the picture went color, bam, it hit me right in the face.
– Why is Ed singing into Mike’s ear?
– I actually like the song without the video, but the video is so bad that I’m starting to hate this song.
– For the last half of that video I had so many things to say, but my fingers just couldn’t type them.
If I see Ed and Mike in the same room again, I’d ask them, “Whatzupwitu?”
I’ll admit, it was nice to see the three members of blink-182 back on stage at the Grammy Awards last Sunday, especially after the plane crash that almost took drummer Travis Barker’s life. Though blink was never one of my favorite bands, they were catchy enough, and the last album they made (the self-titled one) stretched the band out artistically and made me think that they were more talented than their juvenile pop-punk indicated. In terms of band reunions? This one’s cool. And you’d feel the same way if you had to sit through one of those awful Angels & Airwaves records. Lordy. The whole is definitely greater than the sum of blink-182’s parts.
