funkeemunkee, on 10/12/2007, -1/+9Doesn't seem all that good, hoping for a blast from the past not a lame attempt at being current
- IIII, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6I completely agree. This isn't the Hammer I know and love.
- headzoo, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4Seems he hasn't learned a thing. He tried adapting to the times once before, and failed... big time. He would probably do better to stick with what he's good at, and just entertain people.
- jrbrewin, on 10/12/2007, -5/+3kind of old news, he's been producing stuff, again, for ages, and it's always been tripe.

dankoleary, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6This horse has been beat to death so many times, that really at this point we're watching sun bleached bones.
- strangerzero, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Hammer has a weakness for horses. Didn't he lose all his money at the racetrack?
ArchAngel21x, on 10/12/2007, -2/+7No, the phrase he is most known for is "Stop, hammer time."
- jposh, on 10/12/2007, -1/+17
  yes, please "stop hammer time"
aaryn, on 10/12/2007, -2/+8I dugg just because it's HammerTime

gaqua, on 10/12/2007, -0/+12Please, Hammer, don't hurt me.
GeoNine, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4Seriously though, wasnt that the 90's?
unitedkronos, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2Isn't there an official site people without iTunes could go to?
- tastethevenom, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2Unfortunately, this is it: http://www.mchammer.com/
  
  I guess he doesn't how to do a redirect.
shooby, on 10/12/2007, -2/+2he's going to get played on radio stations like crazy

like 94.9 here in the bay

and rise to fame...

why? because he has a song with the word hyphy in it
- JTorquido, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Hopefully not... That'll ruin all street cred associated with the "Hyphy Movement"...
rodon, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6I'm sorry, but your 15 mintues were up well over 15 years ago.
Knives, on 10/12/2007, -7/+2If your like me, then I know what you're thinking >>> YES!!! FIIINALLY!!1 *sarcasm*
(U can't touch this! [oh-oh oh oh oh-oh-oh][x2])
tbalanco, on 10/12/2007, -2/+4He's a 90s rapper
- jrbrewin, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4jayz, beastie boys, ll cool j.... uhm? what decade are they 'from' again?
  age doesn't matter if the music is fresh
- Agret, on 10/12/2007, -5/+1"jayz, beastie boys, ll cool j.... uhm? what decade are they 'from' again?
  age doesn't matter if the music is fresh"
  
  idk but all those rappers you listed are long past their time and haven't released anything good in ages
  
  I wonder how much money Linkin Park was given so that Jay-Z could ruin their album?
Jimmerz, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6Needs more parachute pants. Like the good old days.
cuoops, on 10/12/2007, -1/+28doo do-do-do do-do do-do can't digg this
carebearwarrior, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2I remember when Michael Jackson's "Black or White" was up against "2 Legit To Quit" on MuchMusic.

Wow. Quite the fall from grace (for both of them,) but at least Hammer will have a chance at coming back. A slim one however.
juboodi, on 10/12/2007, -7/+1Why would you even submit a story to Digg to slam someone? You're promoting them for godsakes.
- juboodi, on 10/12/2007, -5/+1News: "Mmilian the news reporter, doesn't know what news is."

lcarsdeveloper, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4From the TV Series "In Living Color"...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c2DYqaoTahs (Probably funnier if you watch the original Can't Touch This music video first.)

Didn't MC Hammer become a preacher? It's a great job for someone who has no money :)
MarcoRaaphorst, on 10/12/2007, -2/+10"We are unable to find iTunes on your computer."

haha
- windex99, on 10/12/2007, -4/+2iTunes is for fags, metro's and girls. (just like mac's)
icekold, on 10/12/2007, -0/+11I've been legally blind since 1994 when I saw the video for Pumps and A Bump.

Speedos are evil.
- Sox2, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2wont touch this...
- atmicrat, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1Pumps and a Bump best video and song EVER!
- volcompimp, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Hahaha.... Looks like they filmed that at his old mansion which is really close to my house. It's too bad he went broke and had to sell it.
Ryn2o01, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I'm just waiting for a MC Hammer/Vanilla Ice Concert Tour. No one will be able to touch that tour.
Lazerbeak, on 10/12/2007, -5/+0the best part of "you cant touch this" is the the word "stop" I just wish he would.
I cringe when I think I was into him as a kid :D
theRealKlaatu, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1I hope it does well. He's a nice man, really.
mjordan4343, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Hammer was on top of it all way back in the day. He's filed for bankruptcy now.
Qtip42, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1You know I saw him not too long ago at a church in Oregon.....was pretty cool. Maybe he should stick to that
ragalover, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0There is nothing worse than people commenting on an album who have not listened to the songs. MC Hammer has some excellent songs on the album especially, "Hammertime, Yay, Monster Mash (with guest appearance by an Eminem sounding rapper) and West Coast Cha". I agree that the first two songs on his sample album list are weak but the rest of the album is Great. MC Hammer sounds the same on his last two albums and actually brings back the roughness in his voice from his first album. He raps better than LL Cool J to the ladies in "Get2NOU and Game Down 2 My Socks". Scott Storch and Versatyle did a good job updating MC Hammer's music. So don't comment on the record if you have never listened to it or if you are a MC Hammer hater joining the bandwagon because you were overexposed to HammerTime in the 90's. Also bankruptcy never meant dead broke it just meant making less money than you owe which is why MC Hammer is still living in a huge house, dresses in expensive threads and sold his royalties for over $2 million. So listen to the music and then comment. If you can't critique the songs from the album then you are just a "hater" and your comments are worthless.
mybeezy, on 11/02/2007, -0/+0exactly the person above me knows what hes talking about. I've heard his new album with MC hammer him self. i mean if you from the bay you ll know what type of music I'm talking about.!! straight bay slap!! its totally different from the music before. theres various bay artists on tracks. every track is a hit on there! no bull.
