I haven’t posted this video yet? Seriously? Well, I guess that’s okay because today is Chamillionaire’s birthday. Who the hell is that, you ask? He’s the fella who put out that song “Ridin’ Dirty” that has been tearing a new hole in hip-hop radio and TV for a while now. You’ve probably heard it, even [...]

I actually originally posted this in my personal blog over a year ago, but I got to thinking about it the other day after the Ego Likeness concert on my birthday and realized that it would be a nice addition to YSLAR.

Okay… well… this isn’t exactly a music video, per say. It is, however, a musical episode of Rocko’s Modern Life, a TV show that I loved as a youngin’. I sat and tried to think of a good song to post to celebrate America Recycles Day and all that would come to mind was [...]
