MC Hammer ain’t no joke

Hammer is not who you think.

OAKLAND — “🎵U can’t touch this!🎵” Rap Rewind released the documentary of MC Hammer (né Stanley Kirk Burrell) who, despite his mainstream success and family-friendly image, was ruthless behind closed doors. See, we all assumed Hammer was “Charmin” soft because he did his choreography in parachute pants. But those in the industry know better. He’s nobody’s bitch. LaMarr “Deuce” Lubin called Hammer the “most gangsta one of ’em all.” Mo’ gangsta than Suge Knight and Eazy-E. Redman is a witness. The “Funkorama” artist said Hammer threatened to kill him for talkin’ sh*t in a rap song. “That goddamn MC Hammer [was] very serious about beef,” Redman recalled. “Y’all mothaf*ckas laugh and joke about Hammer. No, no, no, no. That n*gga was deep about beef. ‘Oh, you gone talk about my dancing pants? I see you.’ And he would whoop a n*gga out.” Hammer — who served in the U.S. Navy at Patrol Squadron 47 in Mountain View, California — confronted Ice Cube too.

But neither altercation went public to safeguard the Oakland native’s squeaky-clean persona.

A close source said when drawing a juxtaposition between Eazy and Hammer, there’s not much dissimilarity. Both were from the hood. Both were street-savvy. Both were entrepreneurs with the key difference being how they presented themselves to the world.

While Eazy’s approach was blunt and unapologetic, Hammer opted for a more ubiquitous appeal which often led to his machismo being questioned. His flashy style and cynosure on positivity were in stark contrast to the often violent and misogynistic themes prevalent in Eazy’s music. Bottom line is Hammer hoodwinked us. He bullied music execs during negotiations. He took no sh*t.

Hammer gained street cred from Suge’s corpulent ass and that’s saying something. We all know the “Death Row” honcho hates everybody and respects no one. Suge once dangled Vanilla Ice upside-down from a hotel balcony and threatened to drop his ass if they didn’t agree to contractual terms. There’s also scuttlebutt the 300-pounder is complicit in the deaths of Eazy and Tupac.

The fact that Suge harbors trepidation when it comes to Hammer speaks volumes.

Anyway, watch the explosive documentary.

  1. Would it be accurate to say that, in the future, Ice Cube won’t touch this…?🤔

  2. You don’t mess with nobody from the bay area they don’t play with stupid shit cause that stupid shit will get you cancelled …

  3. He approached people with a bunch of dudes with him and we are suspossed to believe he is tough? None of these gangsta motherfuckers are tough. Everyone is tough when they got 20 people with them. Stop with this bullshit.

  4. Cats from the Bay, The Town, they have a different energy. Proceed accordingly.

  5. It’s a shame Hammer didn’t whoop that pretend gangster 2 Pac and fat ass bully Suge, too!

  6. Always amuses me knowing 2 pac was his best friend, and Hammer was in the car with him when he was shot

  7. Typical, all the “rappers” dissing him when he on top saying he aint no rapper…… ffs he wasn’t trying to be a rapper. Imagine all the “rappers” he could have smoked back in the day and probably still now lol

  8. Isn’t that funny. Gangsta rappers accused Hammer of being soft and it turns out he was the real gangster.

  9. I got more respect for hammer than most of these old school rappers and most of the rappers today. Ice cube was jealous, and a lot more of them were. Hammer gave jobs to people who came out of prison. He helped people in his community. Look at snoop at a trump rally. They were trying hammer out of jealousy and trying to use him to make a name for themselves. Hammer showed them he wasn’t to be played with.

  10. When a man loves God, family and country, he can do anything, without having to do everything You know what I mean. Hammer has the respect of his fans because he stood his ground and remained HIMSELF.

  11. Hammer had a 400k monthly cell phone bill for all his friends, ruthless

  12. “Please Hammer, Don’t Hurt Em” has so much more meaning now.

  13. Hammer is the GOAT.. Intelligent, gifted and a family man… standing on business. His business 😂🎉

  14. MC Hammer is a real one. People judged the man by the era and style of the time. The early 90s were a bit cheesy looking back. Yet the man was more gangster than some of the “harder” gangster rappers that followed.

  15. It always amazes me how people will judge a book by its cover. “Wasn’t lookin’ like a gangsta so I guess he ain’t no gangsta”. Reminds me of my favorite geometry lesson, when the lines of “Fuck around” and “Find out” met at an intersecting point.

  16. Wonder why Hammer never checked Easy E or any members of NWA when they dissed him in their video similar to the way Cube dissed him?

  17. He pissed himself. He felt the pain. I’d piss & shit myself. 10 Hard-heads and Hammer about to wax my ass. And he knows he f-up. Redman YES SIR MISTER HAMMER.
