There is something about Slick Rick's songs that cannot be denied. You might make your parents listen to Oncle Ricky and have them recognize the English boy's talent. More than that, there is poetry in both his lyricist skills, and the way the texts flow. It's an undeniable skill and I like to find consistency in an artist, which is exactly the case of Slick Rick, all 4 LPs are great.
Behind Bars, with an introduction from west coast's very own Warren G, is an incredible "tale about that jail stuff", and the video for it, a pure animated storytelling, was released while Slick Rick was in jail. Mostly in black and white to cover the general atmosphere inside, it is vivid with unpleasant happenings such as, in no particular order, the stealing of your shoes and clothes, unfriendly jail-mates "visiting" you, the prison guard having much more to do than attend to your defense while all this is happening…
I tried to make most of it happen on my print, and capture the general feeling of the video.
