Did somebody say “train?”

I could picture Cowboy Troy as the frontman for this group. He’s the only one who should be dancing like this anyway. This week’s edition of “Throwback Thursday” is brought to you by niggas who think neon orange is a good idea. 1996 brought us a ton of good shit. Excluded from that group would be the Quad City DJs and a song you all thought you forgot “Come On N Ride It (The Train)” [watch it now]. Sadly, their follow up “Space Jam” was a step up from this shit.
The singer chick had some got damn nerve showin the midriff! Fuck is wrong with her? Some of that Dark & Lovely must have seeped into her brain through the ears. You can’t do that, boo boo! Need to take that ass to Lane Bryant and have the salesperson introduce you to the extra baggy section. They ain’t supposed to make spandex past a certain size no way.
Speaking of Dark & Lovely, am I the only one who noticed that some space hoodrat in the video has got the longest weave I’ve EVER seen? There are some horses huddled together somewhere ass-to-ass-to-ass trying to keep warm because of this ho! I would call her a ghetto Rapunzle, but if you tried to touch it she’d fucking kill you. Besides, one good tug and that shit is on the curb. (I know you seen a girl-fight in the projects. The whole street look like a barber shop floor by the end.)
I know this was 1996, but damn… the first rapper look like Patrick Ewing with a S-Curl. Also the nigga really should be a superhero with them pants. Captain Kool-Aid or some shit. Them oranges are makin me thirsty as fuck. I should tell him I think there's an open casting call for the porn cover of "The Incredibles."
The second rapper is now a member of Trillville.
I KNOW WHERE I’VE SEEN THIS SET AND CUTAWAY SHOTS BEFORE! They them shits from that C&C Music Factory video. You know… the only one anyone knows.
This shit should have been an episode of Futurama. They ain’t even on no train! They floatin around on a huge space dick! Lookin like something out of Judge Dredd. I can’t even defend these motherfuckers. Judge Dredd could do some Jersey-style racial profiling and rain on all these motherbitches. I wouldn’t even call Sharpton.
These niggas had to get on the BACK of the train.
Take a stroll down memory lane with me. We’re going to a day where colors were bright, even if talent wasn’t. Where Angela Winbush’s touchdown cousin could get a deal if she sang on the right bouncy track, and the corniest rappers possible graced the camera with their awkward presences. Actually, aside from the colors, that sounds a lot like today. Sadly, in 10 years we will think what we wore today was dated and strange. I promise! I swore the shit I had on in ’96 would be cool forever. Now I got a ton of jerseys and jeans I can’t do shit with. It's guess it's time for a Salvation Army drop-off.

Re: There are some horses huddled together somewhere ass-to-ass-to-ass trying to keep warm because of this ho! I would call her a ghetto Rapunzle....ROFLAO!!! Yo, you crazy!!!
You gonna remember they come from the breed of C&C Music Factory's, Tag Team, 69 Boyz and a series of ridiculous acts.
I can't front I like this song
And Yes, I did do the train.
This video takes place when plastic was considered a clothing material, cowboy hats with leopard print were considered a fashion statement, and men could wear any colour under the rainbow. This my children is the aftermath of cross colors.
So THAT'S where Bentley learned to dance, as I see the exact same technique with the guy in the silver sequined pants.
This is a visual mash up. It's the style of the year but it's mixed in with a little bit of Haddaway flare in the bilowy shirts, C&C kelidescope-on-the-face, and that one girl from Soul Train, who I think is still there.
All in all this song is ok but there was too much of everthing in it, so I have 2 listen to Tom's Diner to balance myself out.
do do dooooo-doo, do-d-dooooo doo!
Oh My God!!! This nigga Stylezz made a Haddaway reference!!!Are you serious. I don't know if I can give points but that my friend was a perfect 10.
AND Tom's Diner.
She's ill, y'all.
I've met many a person who rode the train. But we didn't do it with all the bright colors. You know I'm sure if this song was re released by like Lil Jon or somethin with a nice lil remix. Have ludacris talkin bout runnin trains and I'm sure it would make some money. It's already got stupid ass lyrics in it so it would do good in the South....just talk about runnin trains and such and it's a hit.
Thanks gang!
*waiting impatiently for Pretty Ricky*
Fucku Stylezz
Yo Ron Mexico what's your favortie song, colour, drink & signer?
By the way are you Mexican??
You want the Mexico profile?
You not trynna date me, right?
For those kind of questions I have email...
but I will tell you that I am not Mexican.
Got much love for my vatos and esses, though.
What are you crazy? I was just asking you know what i'm sayin' Ron?
I was just joking about the dating thing.
But like I was saying, I can answer personal questions via email... not on the blogs.
Who the fuck is Quad City DJ's??
First and foremost it's obviously safe to say that Skittles and StarBurst at one point use to endorse music videos! And what is that they're flying in? A big swollen metal cock?! the whole thing looked like a charity performance for the save the children foundation. I guess back then if you you could get 37 ppl to dance in a line wearing colorful clothing and make train noises then dammit, you could get away with anything!
