MC Hammer “No Stopping Us”

MC Hammer “No Stopping Us”

Yes, this “patriotic” song is really bad, even by later MC Hammer standerds.  MC will change his style to anything that is popular at the time, and this misguided song is no different.  I remember a friend of mine told me about this MC Hammer petriotic song, and I didn’t believe him.  I’m all for positive songs, but this song just seems wrong. 

While rap and Hip-hop are mainstream, they embrace the counterculture.  This just seems like a cheap latch onto the mindset of many people at the time. 

~Yes, we get the smybolism, Hammer.  Enough with the church stuff and you in a military uniform. 

~The pimp fur coat and the American headband just doesn’t seem to fit.

~Watching a bunch of stiff Congress people attempting to dance is terrible.  Stick to making terrible laws, Congress.  And, let washed up hip-hop rappers do the dancing. 

~The music sounds like it came out of the early 90s instead of 2001.
