Rappers are known for their often outspoken and boundary-breaking lyrics - few will forget 50 Cent's "we in tha club doin' tha same ol' two-step / Guerrilla Unit / 'cuz they say we bugged out 'cuz we don't go nowhere without toast we thugged out" - but Sir Mixalot stands out amongst them as a true innovator. 'Baby got back' details one man's love for fat bottoms.
Ever the linguist, Sir Mixalot delicately yet effectively emphasises the core tennets of his discourse. It is this talent for subtle use of words that has led to his success as a household name above such immitators as Vanilla Ice and MC Hammer.
Aware that, however impressive, this alone may restrict full appreciation of the boundless joys to be had to that proportion of his audience who can read, Sir Mixalot further demonstrates his fondness with the crude use of fruit.
Sir Mixalot caters to a full variety of audiences, albeit with raunchy twist. Here, he makes a visual play upon the traditional tale of the little Dutch boy and the dam. I also like to think that he has improved a few people's diets.
Sir Mixalot has plentiful obvious good qualities, but I'm beginning to suspect that he might be racist. I know a variety of white people, and only some of them are like this.
Despite his revolutionary choice of subject matter, Sir Mixalot remains true to his old school roots. His cred is evident from his choice to prevalently include a mustard yellow dress, previously the sole preserve of 'Fresh Prince of Bell Air'.
It is difficult to be on top for so many years. Sometimes even artists of this calliber slip and reveal them selves to be old men. YOUR REFERENCES ARE OLD AND TIRED.
Sir Mixalot has opted to meet this challenge by presentation of his many faces in montage rather than as seperate moods. The bredth of his talent can be seen to range from utilisation of comedy landscapes to Wayne's World-style comedy extreme closes up to comedy magazine cover mock-ups to comedy hardcore shoutouts and greetz.
