beat bop and beyond...

chris stain said he got his name from rammellzee's rap on "beat bop."  you know the song.  it was the ending credits song for henry chalfant's "style wars."  (http://www.stylewars.com/)


 basquiat was on this song playing bongos after his rap got scratched.)  rammellzee talks about being a "stain on a train."  thus, "chris stain."  how can you not love that?
