Yoko Ono's rare appearance in a Public Enemy song - can't think of any others, except that Le Tigre song where they list the great women of NYC..

Whatcha gonna do? Rap is not afraid of you
Beat is for Sonny Bono, beat is for Yoko Ono
Run DMC first said a deejay could be a band
Stand on its feet, get you out your seat
Beat is for Eric B, and L.L. as well, hell
Wax is for Anthrax, still it can rock bells
Ever forever, universal, it will sell
Time for me to exit, Terminator X-it

J. Edgar Hoover, and he coulda proved to you
He had King and X set up
Also the party with Newton, Cleaver and Seale
He ended, so get up

you can't post on ILX 400 times a day and feign ignorance of a much ballyhoosed Seinfeld-themed mixtape that may, very likely, have a George Costanza ref somewhere in its 80 minute runtime.

Yeah, I was gonna say re Constanza, "what about Wale?" But I haven't actually heard the mixtape.

We all hang with tickets for Van Halen, Gorefest, Autopsy, Def Leppard and Spaz

I don't know dude, you seem to be pretty familiar with it. Besides, you're kind of throwing stones in a glass house in a thread about obscure refs by mostly mediocre rappers

skygreenleopard, Friday, 7 November 2008 20:26 (fifteen years ago) link

thank you for your contribution

Edward III, Friday, 7 November 2008 20:48 (fifteen years ago) link

Kind of a stretch, but Pat McCarran and Francis Walter (of the McCarran-Walter Act) are namechecked in Jello Biafra's outro to Ice-T's Freedom of Speech.

My knowledge of rap lyrics is very slim compared with most of this thread's participants, but it's kind of fun to just Google "[SOMEONE'S NAME] site:ohhla.com" and see what comes up.

I admit to not being able to come up with any examples right now, but I swear I've heard Elvira in another rap song at some point.
