Diary of Prince Paul from bricolagista! on Vimeo.
Just found two Prince Paul gems: a parody of MTV's Diary of... series and Resident Alien's unreleased LP "It Takes a Nation of Suckas To Let Us In".
Check MC Paul Barman making a damn fool of hisself dancing in the Diary of Prince Paul!
In 1990 Prince Paul had a production deal w/ Def Jam that gave him his own imprint, Dew Doo Man Records. The only act he signed that recorded anything (I can find) was Resident Alien, three of Paul's green card carrying buddies. They recorded this record in 1991 (after 3 Feet High and Rising but before De La Soul is Dead is my guess from the sound of Paul's production) and it's mostly about being a resident alien in America, and the trials and tribulations that follow. Def Jam didn't like it, though, and never released it. Thanks to the internet, we can all enjoy this leaked copy. Check their anthem for Dew Doo Man Records:
Gotta love that "just having fun" hip hop. I miss it.
