One of our most prolific podcast guests, Johnny Yetsconish, is back with one of the most iconic rap songs of the '90s: Skee-Lo's 1995 hit single "I Wish." In the thick of gangsta rap, a 19-year-old Skee-Lo took the radio by storm with a G-rated rap song about being a "little bit taller" and dreaming of popularity and success with the ladies. This anthem of a hopeless romantic has left a lasting impact not just on the three of us, but on the hip-hop community as a whole. Unfortunately, due to a bad contract with a shady record label, Skee-Lo retired from music at the peak of his popularity. This week, we listen to his music and decide if we WISH he had stuck around longer. Join us as we dive into the story behind the song that made everyone wish they were a baller.
