MC Hammer "Pumps and a Bump"

[DJ Paul's Arm]

I remember smashin to my RnB playlist full of slow jams then this song came on for some reason. Accidentally added it to the playlist.

The moment intensified

 

[Booker T Garvey]

This song hits my news feed at least once a month, truly Hammer's sleeper hit

Hammer doll with the genie pants.

Hammer was a force. Yea he went full retard with the commercial shyt but he was a positive goon. That pumps vid tho was all wrong i could see that even a kid back then. Was that around the time he linked up with suge?

 

[ThrobbingHood]

Underrated classic. I learned the dance moves as a child.

 

[3rdWorld]

I swear pac ghostwrote that shyt, it sounds just like pac from that era

They have the exact same flow too

Yeah. This was when he joined Death Row. He dropped the “MC” and kept Hammer. He tried to go “Gangsta Rap” but he tried to keep the dancing too. He was way ahead of his time.

But this track is a classic. Produced by Teddy Riley, ghost written but 2pac. It was always going to be a hit.

Edit: he didn’t join DeathRow until 1995 but he had been affiliated with Suge since the late 80s.
