Maya Rudolph & Fred Arminsen
Riverside - The Beat Farmers
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WtrD5NkrLHY

Why? #1 - The Beat Farmers have never been played yet.

Wikiepedia: Premise
Forever follows married couple Oscar and June who "live a comfortable but predictable life in suburban Riverside, CA

Lyrics:
When you moved up to Riverside
You thought the answer was hidden there
But it just turned out to be a place to hide
Baby, that town treated you so unfair

Just for fun - the video for The Beat Farmers Happy Boy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LEZtII8rt_Y

I now know how johnbook feels - making a very strong case for a song that fits --and probably has very little chance of being played :)

Brian Tyree Henry
Paperboy (Arcade) Main Theme
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iB7uZZRypZg

Why? he plays PaperBoi on Atalanta

John Legere ????????????????????????????

The iPhone event is on the Wednesday, why is he booked on the Monday??


Suggestion:
A Tribe Called Quest - Mr. Incognito
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0gZg09Q_ECI

Why? Q-tip says "Magenta" at the end verse 1, and Phife says it at the beginning of verse 2. And T-Mobile's color is magenta.

Maya Rudolph & Fred Armisen
Minnie Riperton's "Return To Forever"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BGEfLMwqKFY
REASON: New show is called FOREVER, and offering a nod to Maya, as Fred doesn't need it.



Brian Tyree Henry
Yall So Stupid's "85 South"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hCdYIAustq0
REASON: Still from one of my favorite hip-hop albums of 1993 but many will forget anything pre-Wu-Tang (November 9, 1993) so I use this song since he's in Atlanta, and the opening line:
"I'm livin' in Atlanta but I ain't no hick
Step back, 'fore I slap you with my afro pick"

Extra bonus points for you to throw your pick to Tariq, in honor of the second line.

First the suggestion:
Black Star - Astronomy
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s9eVz3I4mBg

Why? Samples "The Love Theme from Spartacus" - and because he's a Black Star.

Why? Last week Cory Booker released Ben Kavanuagh's emails wherein the Supreme Court nominee discussed if "Roe V. Wade" was settled law, and he came to the conclusion *that nothing is settled if the Supreme Court says its not.* That email were shown to the Democrats on the committee , but were marked "confidential" so he was not supposed to discuss or even acknowledge the document exists.

Source:
"Lest the immensity of the moment be lost on spectators, Booker sprang for the enduring image: “This is about the closest I’ll probably ever have in my life to an ‘I am Spartacus’ moment,” he said with a straight face. He was referring to the 1960 movie “Spartacus,” about a failed slave revolt led by the title character (Kirk Douglas) against the Roman Republic. When the rulers warned that all the slaves would be crucified unless Spartacus identified himself, he stood up. Then all the other slaves did the same, saying, “I am Spartacus.”

Source link: https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/cory-bookers-spartacus-moment/2018/09/07/8c97eaee-b2f6-11e8-aed9-001309990777_story.html?noredirect=on&utm_term=.221b81c5d5d8


So then the RNC sent out a blast email dubbing Cory Booker "Spartacus of Newark" - like being Spartacus is a bad thing.

Maya Rudolph & Fred Armisen

De La Soul "Forever"
https://youtu.be/7BXOFtd9elU

Why: 'Forever' reference, and let's all remember this great in-between albums De La cut.

Brian Tyree Henry

Outkast "ATLiens"
https://youtu.be/NywdVBwzurU

Why: 'Atlanta' reference.


Senator Cory Booker

M.O.P. "Breakin' the Rules"
https://youtu.be/yKFaclZQPJk

Why: He recently stated that he is "knowingly breaking the rules" in order to release Kavenaugh's confidential emails. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fPBlcrlm0Ro

but Book made me feel bad

Mathew McConaughey
Culture Club's "White Boy"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UuwsSfpugj8
REASON: He's in WHITE BOY RICK. I originally suggested Merle Haggard's "I'm A White Boy" but I thought the lyrics were slightly on the semi-racist side, even though Haggard said it was not so I chose a funky song that might be associated with McConaughey. Plus, Boy George goes a brief rap, one of the very few times he did this.


Norm Macdonald
Talk Talk's "Talk Talk"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6hHnOBlwU3A
REASON: I often suggest this for Andy Cohen but maybe it will be used for Macdonald this time.

Why? He's in a film called "White Boy Ricky."


If too racial:
Ricky by Weird Al (and Tress McNeil.)

Norm said a BUNCH of stupid shit in an interview and the Tonight show cancelled him.

Stupid shit he said is here: https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/why-norm-macdonalds-new-talk-show-wont-target-trump-1141832

My favorite stupid quote:
What about all this emboldening of racism, though?

I live in L.A., where I'm always faced with the lunacy of the left. I didn't know that the same lunacy existed on the right. So I never really bought into this notion that everybody is racist — because there was a black president, you know? But the Sacha Baron Cohen show has been a frightening eye-opener. I was also in a bubble, but in a different way. I guess everyone is a fucking idiot. Everyone is an idealogue. Hopefully the pendulum will slow down in the next four years.


He's on Stern today - I'm sure he'll address it.

I heard on gossip places that Norm showed up to the show and was in the green room when Jimmy personally told him he was cancelled??

DISH!DISH!DISH!

https://soundcloud.com/user-205953525/nm-hs/s-IdbI4

HE says he was at the show and doing a comedy - and getting ready for True Confessions before the plug got pulled - also he explains what he meant.

Listening to the interview I think he's just not savvy - but I don't think he thinks #metoo is wrong.

mg: Teyana Taylor

Daniel Radcliffe
TLC's "Baby Baby Baby"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q2H6pTtEVlo

baby, that's actual and it's factual
but still, I choose you to be with me
and work on that, so you better not flake it up"



Matt Czuchry
Diana Ross' "It's My House"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QO93p3ZZ8Xw
