ShizzleAlas, the great Cricket’s hip hop music experience failed miserably… yes, we tried to put some shizzle into Vero Bizzle, but it fizzled. I just thought that that we needed to add some variety to our usual offerings of 70’s and 80’ retro pop fare. What’s more, it was going to be an interesting social anthropology experiment… I don’t know about you, but to me there is nothing more intriguing than being in a very suburban, country club conservative environment-i.e.- SO BLOODY WHITE, and mixing it up with the refains of “ drive slow homey” or “grab a drink , grab a glass…after that I’ll grab your @ss” as women d’un certain age peruse the racks at Cricket’s looking for the latest Tory Burch.
It was innocent enough and I tried to ignore some of the more blatant sexual lyrics by speaking in a slightly elevated tone if asked for a Guiseppi Zanotti shoe in a size 12-which, by the way we don’t carry… It wasn’t until our older clientele came out of the dressing rooms with their hands over their ears looking like the hear no evil monkey, that our surreal, delicious urban experiment was unfortunately, over.
Darn it all…I really wanted to fold Vineyard Vines polos to Missy Elliot cranking out,
“ Bounce, like your @ss got the hiccups” tomorrow.
