Well, will you look at how hip-hop has gotten old enough to have a real nostalgia for something other than the music? Now, with me being one of the washed many (old head, old, etc.), when I first heard they were doing a new version of House Party (1990), I was like: “HOW DARE YOU!” But see, unlike others, I wasn’t so caught up on the purity.
