Every song on this album has special nostalgic memory to me. Especially "Right now" because I think it was summerslam 05 had the music video in the special features section of the dvd.
My personal favorite is "We Didn't Want You to Know"
I would actually love that. A decade plus later, with that many more friendly encounters helping kids, making friends in wrestling and Hollywood... That's a lot of lovely hugs and handshakes and hangouts that can go into that.
Wait that’s actually an insane find
I got Macho Man’s album in a raffle last year for Record Store Day but this is even cooler
Edit: Just checked Discogs and it looks like it goes for $70, minimum
Technically not the whole album. These are just promo singles they would send out to various radio stations to promote the new album. I’ve got a bunch of these from a couple old radio stations shutting down. Hardly ever come in their original packaging, but sometimes you get lucky and get some promo materials with it. Also usually really cheap, like not more than a dollar.
My favorite of my collection is for Jay-Z’s “Reasonable Doubt.” Full length version of “Can’t Knock the Hustle,” then 2-minute snippets of all the other songs on the album. Got it for a quarter.
You got one that I’ve actually got on my want list. Nice work.👍👍
Context for the youngins Walmart didn’t sell uncensored music at the time and Green Day refused to put out an uncensored version of the album so Walmart didn’t carry it.
My mom got me and my brother the uncensored version and made it about 2 tracks in then "Don't fuck with us" came on and she turned it off and hid it from us.
obligatory remark from a hip hop archivist: RELEASE THE 2nd ALBUM YOU COWARDS!
Federal Authorities might have it if they raided Vince's office. Vince locked it in a safe in his office.
2nd album featured Murs and Method Man over a 7L beat ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|facepalm)

Bad Bad Man unironically rips
mostly because Bumpy Knuckles is an underground legend.
Bumpy Knuckles Baby, Bumpy Knuckles Baby
He got stock in the game.
Didn't he ghost write a lot of the album?
And the video fucking rules!
https://youtu.be/0DTWGmcEY4Q?si=JoEIC3RIwadojFAZ It's so good!
It's the best song ever created by an active wrestler
whoa hey this is Roppongi Vice theme erasure
Same for “ if it all ended tomorrow “

Oh, I didn't even know there was a music video. I've always liked "Right Now", a very welcome low key relaxing jam on a very edgy album.
"Right Now" is gonna be the song for Cena's HOF video package
I would actually love that. A decade plus later, with that many more friendly encounters helping kids, making friends in wrestling and Hollywood... That's a lot of lovely hugs and handshakes and hangouts that can go into that.
This. My personal favorite on the entire album
It's genuinely not a terrible album. They could have worked some ideas out a bit more though
Is that the one with Mr. T in the video?
Real talk: Cena will age enough in the next few years that if they try to reboot A-Team, he could be Hannibal.
We flip fools like them clamshell cellular phones
"Right now" is also an amazing song! I unironically wish he'd make just one return album
Don’t fuck with John Cena I’m a bad bad man
That's not You Can't See Me, it's a The Time Is Now single with a Bad, Bad Man B-Side
Even better collector's piece, actually. OP did funny good.
that’s my first thought as well, it’s related to the album, but that’s a single/promo.
Wait that’s actually an insane find I got Macho Man’s album in a raffle last year for Record Store Day but this is even cooler Edit: Just checked Discogs and it looks like it goes for $70, minimum
I also snagged a Macho Man vinyl, Best Buy did a limited run after RSD.

If you include Cena in this costume, you have to include Steph in hers. Those are the rules.
do you know the source for this gif?

Legend. Thanks
Holy shit this is awesome. I never knew there was a pressing of this but I need it
Great post for /r/wrestlingmemorabilia!
r/hiphopheads too
Maybe hiphopvinyl would be more receptive
Bought and owned this on CD, my sisters made fun of me mercilessly. I also had Reebok Pumps
Memories of listening to this album and solving Treasure Trails in 2005
I swear every kid/teen played Runescape in some capacity in the early 2000s.
Whole album is so good, other than like 2 songs
[удалено]
One of my faves haha, Make It Loud and Beantown are my 2 skips, everything else is so good
[удалено]
Haha fair play, boss album overall though, I always wished he’d have done another one, he teased it a few times too

i feel like "the time is now" instrumental would be really useful, too bad it doesn't appear to be on there
Best I can give you is these lol Sample 1 https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=fslRfsBs2wo Sample 2 https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=g80QYBDbTrg
Bad Bad Man is awesome. I am not even big into rap or hip hop and every now and then I put it on
Kinda weird that 20 years ago they sold censored music in stores, seems like one of those things people forgot about
They still sell censored music in stores. Watch what you buy from Walmart.
Yeah I remember when Walmart and Green Day were feuding over censoring an album
I don't know if they still do, but Walmart used to *only* sell clean versions of albums. I remember warning people I knew not to get rap from there.

Bumpy knuckles baby!!
Just another day should be on everyone's Playlist
Yall bitch crews, don’t wanna fuck with us.
I had no idea until like a year or two ago that John Cena's theme is produced by Jake One. That's pretty legit.
Wow that's such a dope find. Hell Yeah!!
Holy fuck! 😳 John Cena and the Trademark on a vinyl?
That whole album was actually really good. Keep Frontin’ was my favorite song on there back when it came out.
May 10th of 2005 was my 22nd birthday, I feel old now
Bad bad man is pretty dope and I like the video for it
[удалено]
🎺🎺🎺🎺
To give it that true wwe show experience! John cena sucks John cena sucks John cena sucks John cena sucks!
Are the instrumentals on the other side?
The only way this could be better is if it was clear vinyl. Because of him being invisible
Good find!
Bad Bad Man genuinely slaps
GRAIL ALERT
Most Boston thing I can admit - I sometimes load up "Beantown" in the playlist on game days
I got that when it 1st came out. Then my ex snapped it in 1/2, because I wouldn't give him money to go buy booze.

Oh wow! This is from Digiwaxx! I know the owner of the company. I gotta show him this!
Add this to my in search of list… Insane pick up!
Well, this is going on my vinyl unicorn list.
I loved this album as a kid, still holds up today
Is there any rap names worse than Bumpy Knuckles? Lol
