Yeah, it's possible you are correct and that I am the one misunderstanding the context. I think our brains are working similarly here. Surprised to read MMM saying something so obnoxiously negative about one of our favorite albums (or just one of our fav songs[?]) and so it stuck in the brain-skull.

Is it possible they gave him space to write about 3MCs in the anthology booklet? Mine is packed away after too many moves over too many years back in my mid to late 20's... but I'm sort of getting a tactile memory flash of holding the booklet and reading his take on that song.

I dunno. You def nailed the rest of your dissertation though. Fun read. Easy on the ears resource material.

I believe Yauch gives the summary for 3mcs in the anthology. He talks about meeting mike at rocksteady anniversary and him handing Yauch a card that said world champion DJ.

I also definitely remember reading MMM talking about how he thought the idea of 3mcs was sounding corny when they described what they wanted to do but once it was done him liking it.

It was Yauch on summary for the anthology. I remember this because I always thought the phone call at start of the song was to Ad-Rock and I when I got the Anthology and saw Yauch wrote that I was surprised I was wrong.

Yeah that was a long shot. Now that you say this I remember rwading his take and not MMMs. Welp, we’ll keep digging and solve this uber important mystery!
