Bobby Jimmy and the Critters - Roaches: The Beginning (1986)

This dude’s first album was bad enough, I don’t know why someone let him release another to be honest. It has a track on there called “New York Rapper” wherein he disses a bunch of New York rappers, but dude just SUCKS?

0.4/10

Bobby Jimmy & The Critters: Roaches

Probably my favorite novelty song of all time. Apparently a parody of a song called "Rumors" (I only heard a version of it on The Proud Family), this song about roaches getting all the over the place is charmingly stupid. My dad used to play this all the time in the car and I loved it. It's what every stupid internet parody should aspire to.

Song Score: 30/10

The 1986 Pandora radio station played Club Nouveau's hit Rumors, so of course I had to find the parody.

Roaches think they cute, Girl I’m not impressed; It ticks me off when I find ‘em Wearin’ my momma’s dress.

This song was making the rounds on MTV back in 1986: Bobby Jimmy & 'The Critters' "Roaches" was a parody of "Rumors" by Timex Social Club.

Influential #records in my life #33. I was a fan of #WeirdAl in 1985-87 like most kids my age. Al did pop parodies: Madonna, The Knack, Queen, Michael Jackson... and although he did later, he didn’t do any #rap parodies in the early days. I always wondered why as a kid. I had no idea how underground the #hiphop I was listening to really was at the time. You were lucky to hear The #BeastieBoys, maybe #RunDMC on the R&B station. Not much else. I always wondered why Weird Al never covered 2 Live Crew: SOMEBODY SAY HEEEEEEEY WE WANT SOME PUUUUUUUDIIIIIIIIING!!! 2 Live Crew were big amongst me and my 10 year old friends. Enter Bobby Jimmy and the Critters out of #LosAngeles. Running in the same circles as #NWA, Arabian Prince was a member. Pretty sure I first heard them on a tape a friend had of the Dr Demento show. These dudes did sharp parodies of classic raps like Doug E Fresh and Slick Rick’s LaDiDaDi (Gotta Potty), Times Social Club’s Rumours (Roaches), MC Hammer’s Let’s Get It Started (Somebody Farted). They did spot on send ups of early bass music (We Like Ugly Women) and clowned the popular groups coming out of New York like The Beastie Boys (mocking their rowdy seemingly unintelligible vocal style) and EPMD (portraying them as asleep in the vocal booth because their flows were so laidback) at a time when people weren’t taking LA seriously enough. Bobby Jimmy is hilarious. F’real.
