The show: Mashed potatoes

“Shit! If this gonna be that kind of party, I’m gonna stick my dick in the mashed potatoes” Mantan Moreland

Ahem – yes – mashed potatoes.

For years I have wondered where the Beastie Boys got the legendary “mashed potatoes” sample as used on the track “B-Boys Makin’ with the Freak Freak” from the 1994 album “Ill Communication”. For some unknown reason I decided to consult the internet this morning and struck gold with the brilliant Mic to Mic Beastie Boys fan site. Thanks fellas. Turns out it was comedian Mantan Moreland.
