The popular band that sold more concert tickets than any other from 1969-1974 has been touring again. I attended their sold-out concert June 10, 2012 at Hudson Gardens in Littleton, Colorado. Lead Singer Cory Wells told us that one night, an audience member said that he thought the song “Mama Told Me (Not to Come)” was the great-great-great-grandaddy of rap songs, presumably because of the spoken verses.
Inspired by this fan, the band provided a bit of comic relief by doing a rap version of the song (with a little bit of music commentary thrown in for good measure.)
After putting on their backwards caps and flashing a few rap moves, they launched into lines like “You don’t need to sing/ all you do is rhyme,” and “You don’t need no talent, just attitude.”
