Electronic Music 411 - scraper bike -

awesome. nice to see kids goofing off and not taking themselves so seriously and trying to be 'hard'. looks fun and way better than those douchebags in new jersey w/orange faces and popped collars "jåger bombs! jåger bombs! jåger bombs!"

I like it. Not sure why he had to get away from the dykes. I suspect it was poetic license, rhyming with bikes and all that.

This is asking for a remix - somebody, please.

i saw this one a while back. it's not neccessarily my type of music, but i get it. i think you have to know a bit about oakland to fully get the vibe of the video.

Saw this last year -- it hit bikeforums.net for obvious reasons. A couple of hip dudes even made some "scraper bikes" of their own. I would spin this song fairly regularly when DJing out for awhile. It mixes well with the beat from "You know how we do it" by Ice Cube, for instance...

I think my favorite part of the video is when he's swerving around the middle of the street and that van almost hits him :D

this is great and "oh so spiffy"

there was an old guy that had a three wheeler around macarther bart some years ago- he had a seriously bangin stereo attached and would ride around the empty streets late at night- you could hear him coming for blocks.. his fearlessness was really cool- that 'nabe's a great place to get jumped in the early AM when he was out riding.

Oh...I think we he says "pull a lesbo/get away from dykin'" he means "pull" as in "get". So, he's so cool that he "makes her straight".

haha, Ok then. I thought he was using his bike to get out of the 'lesbo' part of town. But actually he's kind of like a missionary... got it.

Right. Women who are lesbians cannot resist men who ride giant tricycles with aluminum foil on the wheels. They instantly become heterosexual.
