There are two salient factoids that we’d like to pass along about the song above:
1) This was the first hip-hop 12-inch we ever purchased, from the Music+ retail store on Ventura Boulevard. (Don’t look for it—much like the Electric Banana, it’s not there anymore.) We were so enamored of the tune that we recorded every single episode of Yo! MTV Raps for a month straight, just so we wouldn’t miss the video.
2) Fifteen percent of the MCs featured on “Self Destruction” are now hardcore Scientologists. Perhaps they’ll one day collaborate with Beck on an anti-Xenu anthem.
Like gas stations in rural Texas after 10 pm, comments are closed.
