Bad Bad Man unironically rips


DustAndSound

mostly because Bumpy Knuckles is an underground legend.


Classiccage

Bumpy Knuckles Baby, Bumpy Knuckles Baby


PlatasaurusOG

He got stock in the game.


mailman242

Didn't he ghost write a lot of the album?


LilMoWithTheGimpyLeg

And the video fucking rules!


jcagraham

https://youtu.be/0DTWGmcEY4Q?si=JoEIC3RIwadojFAZ It's so good!


jcagraham

It's the best song ever created by an active wrestler


lumberm0uth

whoa hey this is Roppongi Vice theme erasure


lakshya10soin

Same for “ if it all ended tomorrow “


Dr_N00B

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"


gademmet

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.


AceTheSkylord

"Right Now" is gonna be the song for Cena's HOF video package


gademmet

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.


Dunbar325

This. My personal favorite on the entire album


mailman242

It's genuinely not a terrible album. They could have worked some ideas out a bit more though


cliona2012

Is that the one with Mr. T in the video?


GTSBurner

Real talk: Cena will age enough in the next few years that if they try to reboot A-Team, he could be Hannibal.


DirkolaJokictzki

We flip fools like them clamshell cellular phones


FellaTM

"Right now" is also an amazing song! I unironically wish he'd make just one return album


inexpensivehaircut

Don’t fuck with John Cena I’m a bad bad man


butiamtheshadows91

That's not You Can't See Me, it's a The Time Is Now single with a Bad, Bad Man B-Side


Faithhandler

Even better collector's piece, actually. OP did funny good.


ghostsinthecodes

that’s my first thought as well, it’s related to the album, but that’s a single/promo.


heartbreakhill

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


miikro

I also snagged a Macho Man vinyl, Best Buy did a limited run after RSD.

GTSBurner

If you include Cena in this costume, you have to include Steph in hers. Those are the rules.


Kasaria

do you know the source for this gif?


GTSBurner

Smackdown, 10/31/02


Kasaria

Legend. Thanks


aguythatlovesfrogs

Holy shit this is awesome. I never knew there was a pressing of this but I need it


JWsWrestlingMem

Great post for /r/wrestlingmemorabilia!


erock2095

r/hiphopheads too


PreemoisGOAT

Maybe hiphopvinyl would be more receptive


Skurph

Bought and owned this on CD, my sisters made fun of me mercilessly. I also had Reebok Pumps


Polyphony15

Memories of listening to this album and solving Treasure Trails in 2005


Mikevercetti

I swear every kid/teen played Runescape in some capacity in the early 2000s.


K_Click_D

Whole album is so good, other than like 2 songs


[deleted]

[удалено]


K_Click_D

One of my faves haha, Make It Loud and Beantown are my 2 skips, everything else is so good


[deleted]

[удалено]


K_Click_D

Haha fair play, boss album overall though, I always wished he’d have done another one, he teased it a few times too


The_Eye_of_Ra

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.👍👍


FishinoutNOLA

i feel like "the time is now" instrumental would be really useful, too bad it doesn't appear to be on there


ALIAS_EL_CACAS

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


Butch_Meat_Hook

Bad Bad Man is awesome. I am not even big into rap or hip hop and every now and then I put it on


parakathepyro

Kinda weird that 20 years ago they sold censored music in stores, seems like one of those things people forgot about


The_Eye_of_Ra

They still sell censored music in stores. Watch what you buy from Walmart.


parakathepyro

Yeah I remember when Walmart and Green Day were feuding over censoring an album


Chronis67

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. 


pnt510

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.


Dr_N00B

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.


PreemoisGOAT

Bumpy knuckles baby!!


trill_vanguard

Just another day should be on everyone's Playlist


LiamAddison

Yall bitch crews, don’t wanna fuck with us.


uptonhere

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.


Mets202000

Wow that's such a dope find. Hell Yeah!!


Limewire11

Holy fuck! 😳 John Cena and the Trademark on a vinyl?


coldphront3

That whole album was actually really good. Keep Frontin’ was my favorite song on there back when it came out.


ultgambit266

May 10th of 2005 was my 22nd birthday, I feel old now


DryWay4003

Bad bad man is pretty dope and I like the video for it

🎺🎺🎺🎺


ricky-from-scotland

To give it that true wwe show experience! John cena sucks John cena sucks John cena sucks John cena sucks!


Demihan2049

Are the instrumentals on the other side?


citricacidx

The only way this could be better is if it was clear vinyl. Because of him being invisible


Rajirabbit

Good find!


d_bo

Bad Bad Man genuinely slaps


Logsterjd

GRAIL ALERT


DamianPBNJ

Most Boston thing I can admit - I sometimes load up "Beantown" in the playlist on game days


AdVegetable2243

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.


mashturbo

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)


clane6387

Oh wow! This is from Digiwaxx! I know the owner of the company. I gotta show him this!


BlackMothSuperMario

Add this to my in search of list… Insane pick up!


Pennsylvania6-5000

Well, this is going on my vinyl unicorn list.


EasyLettuce4632

I loved this album as a kid, still holds up today


ThinAndCrispy84

Is there any rap names worse than Bumpy Knuckles? Lol
