#81 SLOW-MOWED SINGLES: Latin Lingo


You'd figure Muggs' twangy mind-pluck beats and B-Real's nasal voice would sound good on the syrupped out tip, but not so much. I think it's already tailor-made for stonerdom, so by slowing it down you overtweak the shit. This is a great single though because the B-side has a giant "Stoned is the Way of the Walk" remix where Muggs just plays a bunch of vocal samples about smoking the weed. That's a great party track there, because I don't know if you ever noticed, but at parties, people be smoking weed usually. Maybe not out in the open, especially if there's kids running around and shit, or parents and shit, but maybe upstairs in the back bedroom or out in the woods or over in the camper or somewhere. When I was in seventh grade, my science teacher used to be married to a dude my dad would smoke weed with, so I knew she smoked too. She made me stay after class early on in the year to make sure I'd play it cool on that tip, not telling everybody else in the class and shit. No problem I assured her, because she was hot in a Van Halen song type way, so I could use this shit to my benefit and take it to the otha level of the game, which in seventh grade meant we flirted with each other and I'd look down her blouse at her desk without giving a fuck if she caught me looking and she'd smile. Too bad she wasn't my tenth grade science teacher.
