MC hammer

[Apotheosis]

From the wikipedia....

MC Hammer (later Hammer), real name Stanley Kirk Burrell, (born March 30, 1962) was a mainstream American rapper during the 1980s and early 1990s, known for his baggy pants and catchy hooks on songs like U Can't Touch This.

This was mentioned in the alternative name thread as well.

I thought everyone already knew that, from like years ago

MC HAMMER was spotted in a hotel bar in Wisconsin last night of all places.

Gah. The "catchy hooks" on U Can't Touch This were ripped off from Rick James, bitch. Rick had more talent in his right pinky than Hammer has in his whole body and baggy fucked up pants. And Rick had the decency to not become a ca$hing-in christian on TBN.

I met him in Rome, of all places. He seemed amused that a bunch of little white girls were asking him for his autograph.

Haha, I thought that was Stanley's real name. I'm silly.

From what I understand, MC Hammer was one of the nicest people you'd ever meet.

One of my ex-coworkers used to spend time with him when ever he came this far NW. She said he was a very well spoken, sweet man who'd bend over backwards for anyone. She also said that the whole reason he "failed" as an artist was because of the people he kept around him. He'd spend tons of money on these people, and they'd just keep soaking it up.

I guess the info could just be bullshit, but the lady was very nice, and trustworthy IMO.
