people only mentioned in one rap song ever

ah found it...freeway, except he says it in his weird freeway kinda way so it sounds more like "jackie JERner"

Two words, Freeway, two letters, A-R
Turn y'all rap niggaz into two words, fast runners
Like Jackie Joyner, you better sleep with your burner
The heat skeet, blow a reef through ya car

Paul Barman has a lot of these:

'I make paintings based on grids just like Chuck Close"

"But I'm a lonely guy since my honeypie ran off with Ione Skye"

"My pissed off Jimbrowski
Turned three colors like Krzysztof Kieślowski"

"My name is Jane Pratt, before you jerk off on my head please pass me that rain hat"

"He backlashed my booty
like I was Susan Faludi"

We dedicate this to cats that's been thuggin/Vinnie Paz get more hoes than Jim Duggan

I wanna know if Jay-Z has ever gotten lyrics from his writing team and said "no guys, back to the drawing board." And if so, what they were.

joe budden is good for these--

had this bugaboo bitch keep wantin me to romance her
always poppin up so i called her george costanza

the thing that bugs me about joe budden is that he's always dropping people only mentioned in one rap song ever

like kevin everett

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

where you gonna run when god wanna do ya
j edgar hoover i wish i woulda knew ya

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

Yoko Ono's rare appearance in a Public Enemy song - can't think of any others

Da Lench Mob

We beat him down like we were loco and said "Fuck John Lennon" and his punk bitch Yoko

KRS

Can't hang with my vocals, better you fuck with Sonny Bono, or Yoko Ono... but KRS oh no no.

New Heltah Skeltah has a Duggen line on it.

You guys suck so bad at this.

sorry i dont rock enough catchdubs cosigned hipster rap to know every seinfeld ref u crumb

i like that joe budden does this cause it just hammers home the fact that he spends all day at home watching tv and reading blogs

"catch wreck like sam kinison, convincingly" - ras kass

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.

EPMD

I, the Afromerican, black citizen
To make you scream loud as hell like Sam Kinison

Here come a bitch with the fly puss', and a nigga with the fly dick
In the Mickey and Mallory mode, rollin through the streets on 24's -twista and lil kim

I'm having more fun trying to debunk the ones people post than coming up with my own

"But I'm a lonely guy since my honeypie ran off with Ione Skye"

ad rock down with the ione
listen to the shit because both of them is boney
-qtip on "get it together"

there's another ione shoutout on some other beasties song, too

Here come a bitch with the fly puss', and a nigga with the fly dick
In the Mickey and Mallory mode, rollin through the streets on 24's -twista and lil kim

killers born naturally like mickey and mallory
not knowing the ways'll get you capped like an NBA salary
- blackstar

I think ice cube or yo yo mentioned 'em too

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

tho Kool Keith does actually mention Gorefest in another song.

there's gotta be a necro joint that mentions those dudes

lol speaking of necro "i got a wide variety of high society whores like rosanna arquette"

going way way back to the early days of '75 and the black spades
chilling with my homeboy muscleman ron and the boogiedown bronx bka pilar
-just-ice "going way back"

I even learnt caucasians were really the tribe of edom
the white image of christ is really cesare borgia
and the second son of pope alexander, the 6th of rome
and once the picture was shown
that's how the devils tricked my dome
-killah priest, "B.I.B.L.E."

I'm not playing with a full deck
up to my neck like toulouse-lautrec
-beastie boys, "the move"

but yeah beastie boys is kinda cheatin

sorry i dont rock enough catchdubs cosigned hipster rap to know every seinfeld ref u crumb

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

thank you for your contribution

now let's get back to quoting those mediocre rappers like krs-one, epmd, and wu-tang

HARRY ALLEN

http://harryallen.info/wp-content/uploads/2008/02/harry-allen-bio.jpg

I be tossin, enforcin, my style is awesome
I'm causin more Family Feud's than Richard Dawson
And the survey said -- ya dead
Fatal Flying Guillotine chops off your fuckin head

good thread but i suck so bad at this

i mean 'good thread' in that i enjoy the bickering

really proud to know this but here's last emperor from the krs/zack de la rocha track off lyricist lounge vol 1:

to all my black magic romancers and acid rain dancers
develop close ties like jerry seinfeld and george costanza

"take cover wit the radical, urban latino/no hip-hop connection with us and janet reno"

mekhi phifer

my team are life stoppers watch me split ya life up
like mekhi phifer in the movie clockers

- black rob

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.

damn, shows how much i know about rap

got 'draulics on my golf cart, fuck a six fo
knew a hoe like gonzo, witta big nose

- j-zone

are you holding out on previously unseen soulstrut graemlins ????

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.
