Hey people, I'm currently working on this new music. A Boombox PA live set , using Ableton and 14 Boomboxes as a PA.
Right now I'm looking for samples about Ghettoblasters which I can use in this project.
Things like
Nas - "Never put me in your box when your **** eats tapes"
Nocando - "I've got this boombox, with the curse on it" etc etc.

Please let me know if you heard a song or a movie where they mention stuff about boomboxes

All ideas are welcome

Thanks

someone will correct me but, LL Cool J radio, "Walkin' down the street, to the hardcore beat.
While my JVC vibrates the concrete."

Cool idea! sorry, I got no cool BB lyrics for you, though...

There's always "Boombox Generation" by Motion City Soundtrack... or has someone thought of that already?

I'm Googling for "plume fox," "doom rocks," and "room clocks" right now...

Of course, there was Billy Joe Royal's "Down in the Boondocks" a few years ago, but I realize that doesn't quite cut it.

In 'Theme from S-Express' by S-Express, a woman shouts out "Drop that Ghetto Blaster!" Here's the lyrics, and a youtube link... she shouts it out at 1:15.

Juicy - Notorious BIG

It was all a dream
I used to read Word Up magazine
Salt'n'Pepa and Heavy D up in the limousine
Hangin' pictures on my wall
Every Saturday Rap Attack, Mr. Magic, Marley Marl
I let my tape rock 'til my tape popped
Smokin' weed and bamboo, sippin' on private stock
