DAMN!!!! THIS IS SOME HAMMERMAN SHIT!!

Kanye West is getting animated, yo. My gay boyfriend is lending his VOICE OF A GENERATION!! to the upcoming Family Guy spinoff, The Cleveland Show. Kanye will appear in a cameo, voicing a character named Kenny West, an unsuccessful rapper. No word if Kenny West will share Kanye's penchant for ALL CAPS rants on his MACBOOK AIR or his unbridled enthusiasm for EXCLAMATION POINTS BECAUSE EXCLAMATION POINTS ARE FUN!!!!!!!

This news got me thinking, remember when MC Hammer had a Saturday morning cartoon?



I barely remember that shit. Click below for the opening of Hammerman for a refresher. Yes, it was called Hammerman;

Man, they used to give Saturday morning cartoons away to just about everybody, didn't they? Since we're already here in the DeLorean, click below for the intro for the New Kids on the Block cartoon. I don't think this would quite qualify as the right stuff;

You CAN Touch This!

If you were going about your life thinking 'things are good but what would make things great is if I could finally fulfill my dream of seeing Stanley Burrell and Robert Van Winkle aka MC Hammer and Vanilla Ice in concert, then your lucky day has arrived my friend.

For one night only, musical powerhouses, lyrical geniuses and wearer of pants that made them look like they shit themselves, MC Hammer and Vanilla Ice are teaming up in what will truly be a legendary explosion of awesome.

“Hammer Pants and Ice” goes down Friday, February 27, 2009, at 8:00 p.m. at the McKay Events Center in Orem, Utah.

When I was in grade seven, I had a mad crush on Vanilla Ice. Something about that wall of hair, those stars and stripes parachute pants, those shaved eyebrows. Word to my mother! I had some bad taste back then.
