Improve Your Memory Through Hip-Hop
There are quite a few historical events whose date I always remember by reciting a classic rap lyric:
- The L.A. Riots: "April 29th was power to the people, and there might just be a sequel.." - Ice Cube (Wicked)
- The Death of Biggie Smalls: "That s*** was the worst rhyme I ever heard in my life, cuz the greatest rapper of all time died on March 9th" - Canibus (2nd Round Knockout)
- The Million Man March: "Slangin bean pies and St Ides in the same sentence, shoulda repented on the 16th of October.." - Common (The Bitch in Yoo)
Am I the only person who does this?

actually, last night i was listening to "concerto in x minor"...
...Now case in point y'all remember that Brooklyn Bridge joint when things got wild and willy?
Yeah that day the FEDS played the role of the bully
Now Huey Newton was slain and we all felt the pain
of Yusef Hawkins, and they was mad but we was squakin
They tried to show a false compassion, yet at the rally
they tried to bash in our brains...

I have fond memories of memorizing a bunch of prepositions (we had to list like 30 of them on a test) to the tune of 2Pac's "How Do U Want It" in junior high.
And I always recall the date of the riots through this lyric:
"April 29th 1992, there was a riot on the streets, tell me where were you?" - Sublime

That Sublime line is classic.
