Must-See Video: Ron Ron, “Hey Honey” / “Throwbacc”

Wake up, KC! No more sleeping on Ron Ron. In this stylized, one-two punch of a video, the local MC turns from party boy to gangsta, starting off with the slow, funky club melter “Hey, Honey,” complete with spliced-in ho’s and Ron in Ladies’ Man attire. Then he flips to his side G at about the 2:20 mark, upon the request of a “friend” who wants to hear from the Ron Ron he remembers: “standin’ on the block, three in the morning off a dip with a chopstick, rappin’ something he wrote while he was in jail.” Ron Ron abides and begins spitting ornate cold-cockin’ poetry about his street upbringing over a sparse, mechanical beat made of static blasts and turntable scratches.

So basically, all we want to know is: WHO IS THIS GUY!!!?

Looks like he’s got a couple of CDs out on a label called Brainiak Muzik. Looks like his latest came out on Halloween! Very clever.

Stay tuned for more about the mysterious Ron to the power of two.
