I recently blogged an old school video clip with the cream of early 90s east coast rappers, at the Arsenio Hall show. Epic. In fact, it was so epic it has now been removed from YouTube. Booh.

I was rummaging the tubes again, and found this clip of Ice-T, rocking some electro in the 80s. Remember Ice-T, the tough and reckless cop in New Jack City, brought in to bring down the crack dealers of New York? The man behind the legendary Power-album from 1988 (that's his wife on the cover, who is attractive in the obvious way, as Dylan Moran would say)? The man who earned his living as a jewel thief and pimp, while rocking the mic?

Blame it on the beat, my mans mixes are unique / he'll take you to your peak, no others can compete.
