The Classic Corner featuring: Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers) by Wu-Tang Clan
Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers) is the debut album of American hip hop group Wu-Tang Clan, released November 9, 1993, on Loud Records and distributed through RCA Records. Recording sessions for the album took place during 1992 to 1993 at Firehouse Studio in New York City, and it was mastered at The Hit Factory. The album’s title originates from the martial arts film The 36th Chamber of Shaolin (1978). The group’s de facto leader RZA, also known as Prince Rakeem, produced the album entirely with heavy, eerie beats and a sound largely based on martial-arts movie clips and soul music samples.
The distinctive sound of Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers) created a blueprint for hardcore hip hop during the 1990s and helped return New York City hip hop to national prominence. Its sound also became hugely influential in modern hip hop production, while the group members’ explicit, humorous, and free-associative lyrics have served as a template for many subsequent hip hop records.
Despite its raw, underground sound, the album had surprising chart success, peaking at number 41 on the US Billboard 200 chart. By 1995, it was certified platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America for shipments of one million copies in the United States. Initially receiving positive reviews from most music critics, Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers) has been regarded by music writers as one of the most significant albums of the 1990s, as well as one of the greatest hip hop albums of all-time. In 2003, the album was ranked number 386 on Rolling Stone magazine’s list of the 500 greatest albums of all time.

In San Juan, Puerto Rico, Rick Santorum is working furiously to explain comments that appear to suggest the island must adopt English as its official language.
“As in any other state, you have to comply with this and any federal law. And that is that English has to be the main language. There are other states with more than one language, as is the case in Hawaii, but to be a state in the United States, English has to be the main language,” Santorum said to the local newspaper.
This is how it starts and shows that if Rick Santorum becomes President he will implement laws to change the culture of any group that does not align with his ideology.
Although Puerto Rico is part of the United States, its primary language is Spanish hence the name Puerto Rico. Rick Santorum made the wrong move by going to a Spanish-speaking island and suggesting that their main language should be English. The people of Puerto Rico responded by giving Mitt Romney 80 percent of their vote.
The power to vote…it’s a good thing.

Fox has done it again: Windmills and The Golden Eagle
Fox Five’s The Willis report with Gerri Willis. What was the top story? The Golden Eagle are being killed by electricity producing windmills, built to reduce our dependency on focal fuel and help save the planet. Gerri Willis even had a Golden Eagle on the show I can’t make this stuff up. This would have been a good story but we all know Gerri Willis don’t give a dam about no birds especially the Golden Eagle. Gerri Willis is a big advocate for the Keyston XL Pipeline and is using this bird story to knock obama’s energy plans. Gerri Willis went on to say that the federal government is to blame meaning Obama, not the company who owns the wind mill, the designers of the wind mills or the agency that protects wild life.
This is posted on http://www.foxbusiness.com/on-air/willis-report/blog Obama’s Green Energy Killer
Gerri Willis started the show by saying the Golden Eagle are being slaughtered by win mills, later on in the show she said “ I don’t know why these birds are under threat are they delicate how come they don’t see the wind mills don’t they have perfect vision”
FOX FIVE WHERE STUPID PEOPLE LIVE.

The Wall of Lame: Vaportrim, this most be a joke…!?
Vaportrim is the newest scientific breakthrough in Vapor Technology that was developed to work with your sense of smell and taste to help you satisfy your cravings, so you feel full, and eat less.
Vaportrim is used to replace your craving of sweets and junk food. Research has shown that 70 to 75% of what you taste is smell. As you inhale smell and taste receptors send messages to your brain which release hormones that tell your body it’s full. Research shows that appetite and the sense of smell are closely connected. In fact, studies have found that our sense of smell actually triggers feelings of fullness before our stomach does. By enhancing smell and taste you feel full faster so you eat less, and lose weight.
Vaportrim a revolutionary weigh loss product, yeah right, I smell a pile of BS…

The Classic Corner featuring:Southernplayalisticadillacmuzik by OutKast
Southernplayalisticadillacmuzik is the debut album of hip-hop duo OutKast, released April 26, 1994 on LaFace Records. Recorded at D.A.R.P. Studios, Purple Dragon, Bosstown and Doppler Studios in Atlanta, Georgia throughout 1992 to 1994. The album featured production by the Atlanta-area production team Organized Noize.
Southernplayalisticadillacmuzik received positive reviews from critics. Stanton Swihart of Allmusic gave the album 4 out of 5 stars, praising Outkast’s “inventive sense of rhyme flow” and commented “Although a little bit too dependent on overly simplistic and programmed snare beats, the music is unconditionally excellent…Few rap artists in general have ears as attuned to creating such catchy melodic and vocal hooks. Almost every song has some sort of tuneful chant or repetitive hook that marks it as instantly memorable.” James Bernard of Entertainment Weekly praised the album for its accurate depictions of Southern life, as well as the message of the song “Git Up, Git Out.” The opening line, “It’s about time someone told today’s weed-obsessed youth to ‘get up, get out and get something/Don’t spend all your time trying to get high.’” Dennis Hunt of the Los Angeles Times also commended “Git Up, Git Out”, calling it the album’s best song. Christian Hoard of Rolling Stone called the record “surprisingly deep” for a then-teenage duo’s debut album. Hoard added that Southernplayalisticadillacmuzik “marked a coming out” for Southern hip hop that “helped define a new stream of hip hop that would rejuvenate the music in the late ’90s and early 2000s.”
