The Show: Switch sides swiftly, then I’m onside chippin’

 

Switch sides swiftly, then I’m onside chippin’
Catch me online ’cause my team stay winning
You know how it is
They’re gonna put it in the paper like, “Which baller is this?”
I hide my face and wear the mask in the vids

What is the true identity of the supposed Premier League footballer turned masked, mystery rapper Dide?

Arsenal forward Eddie Nketiah? No chance. Unless we’re mistaken, at no point does anyone say current Premier League footballer. We’re old school – our money’s on Sir Les Ferdinand.

And on with the show…

The Show: Mantis With A Radish

 

In terms of incongruousness, this is up there with the footage of PiL on America Bandstand we mentioned a few months ago. Same year, 1980, but this time it’s Yellow Magic Orchestra wowing Soul Train’s audience.

It’s just sad it took the untimely passing of Ryuichi Sakamoto to bring it to our attention.
