Yep, Tone Loc. Basically, I'm a sucker for a couple of these beats, namely the "On Fire" and "Loc'in On the Shaw" ones, which were Dust Brothers pre-cursors to the filler bits they'd later do with The Beastie Boys. You could've took any gravel-voiced happy-go-lucky brother and made money off some of these more poppy beats, though Tone Loc fit the bill perfect. And to this day he can get a job doing cartoon voices, which is far better than getting into shootouts with the Boo-Yaa Tribe, like he used to.
