Don't mind the video, just listen to the song. Now I know where Chocolate Rain came from. Tay Zonday, you have some explaining to do!

I am upset with myself for not having known this existed until now, but a reader sent in this video of “Chocolate Strawberry”; a rap song featuring Darryl Strawberry and Run DMC.

Strawberry has a book coming out in April which should do nothing to dispel the late-80s Mets' reputation for wildness, but you don't need to read the book to see evidence that the Straw felt invincible. Go buy his rap LP, Chocolate ...

Thanks to Jason for issuing such a warm invitation to Varsity Letters (Thursday night, 8 PM, details and directions here) as well as for offering a relatively objective review. Thanks to all, really, who have made these first few weeks as a published Mets author so inviting. Your support is as uplifting as it is touching.
