For a Jewish dude, I’m pretty knowledgeable when it comes to rap music.  I’ve never heard of Mellow Mel before, but apparently he made a rap song about Dwight Gooden.  It’s one of those late-80s rap songs with forced rhymes and cheesy breakdancing beats that sounds like it was written by a fourth grader, which may be why I’ve never heard of him.  With lines like, “From New York City to Hollywood, everybody knows the Doc is good,” lyrically, this rap isn’t much better than The Super Bowl Shuffle.  I can’t help but imagine a bunch of dudes with dangling earrings and short, pink tank tops that don’t cover their stomachs doing crappy robot dances to this song.

I suppose it’s a fun song simply for the sake of nostalgia, but the novelty wears off around halfway through.  For forced rhymes, I’ll take Brother Marquis seven days a week.
