Two Times Backwards

Nothing to do with cars but.... Remember this? "Drop" by The Pharcyde, released in 1995.  First single of the second album LabCabinCalifornia. Contains the "mmm..... drop" sample of the Beasty Boys song "The New Style". The genius music video was directed Spike Jonze and filmed in LA. He filmed the group performing the song backwards,  even the lyrics! and then replayed it backwards. This combined with the chopped, spacey beat of the song gives the video a real cool surrealistic touch... awesome thinking!

    Man, Your blog already had me. Im seeing backwards right now, but Pharcyde is a flawless victory! Keep it up. This beat was produced by the late and genius Jau Dee.
