Hauls of Shame - Who is Peter Nash?

[baez578]

Def scam recordings? Hmmm

Here's a "where are they now" piece and Pete's in around 3:35 mark

I hope y'all are kidding about liking 3rd Bass. I thought they were completely wack, and I didn't know anyone else who liked them either. To me they were more of a gimmick than Vanilla Ice himself.

At least in NYC, they were nowhere near the joke Ice was. Ice was a clown with one hit that was a total beat bite off Under Pressure. 3rd Bass was legit with Gas Face, Stepping To The AM, Bklyn-Qns, and Derelicts of Dialect-- all solid cuts that still get a modicum of love to this day, whereas Ice's one song is played by not a DJ on earth, except maybe as a nostalgia laugh at a wedding.

Where I was (Bklyn and Manhattan late 80s thru 90s), 3rd Bass was more or less on par with say a Special ED, yeah they fell off the map but the cuts still get love. Ice went out as a gimmick sorta like Fu Schnickens and Das EfX-- though I cant lie who didn't bump Das when they dropped.

Cactus Album is just not put in same bucket as Vanilla Ice, least not to the hardcore hip hop heads I knew/know. But not all areas were feeling the same stuff, of course.

Not by any means saying Bass gets bumped with the likes of Gang Starr or even Masta Ace, just nowhere near Ice.

Somehow I don't think this discussion was the OP's intent.

I still listen to them almost every day. They had a short career, but they were legit.

My favorite song--Product of the Environment.

Derelicts of Dialect was a hot album.



(Ebbets Field/Dodger stuff in Brooklyn Queens video . . .)

Kind of fitting for the post I guess...

On Corral.net (mustang board), someone mentioned a Vanilla Ice lyric about a Mustang. It turned into complete discussion about his music and all his videos got posted and people started reminiscing about the 90s. Ended up being an awesome thread.

I may have been the only person who listened to the Dust to Dust tape until it waved the white flag. I still occasionally youtube songs from it.

3rd Bass was waaaay better than Vanilla Ice, they had legit songs and Steppin to the AM got a lot of air play around my hood, not just Gas Face and Pop Goes the Weasel

Matty C, couldn't agree more. But Masta Ace???? Please replace Masta Ace with Eric B and Rakim.... Thanks.

Oh most definitely EB and Rakim are in the pantheon-- among the greatest ever, right there at the top. My first gig was actually titled PAID IN FULL!

You need to stay on topic here, we are talking about 3rd Bass songs

PS: I could listen to Don't Sweat the Technique and Know the Ledge over and over and never get tired of them
