"straight up" just means "completely" or totally or very or really. kind of. it's hard to explain out of context.
Yeah i know that but what why would you boast about being a detective on a rap record?

it's a joke, most likely.
which song is this? i'd want to see the lyrics in context

He's like a zen master detective tho, isn't he? Psyching people out by appearing to be all doddery and then BAMN he's made 'em give the game away.
Columbo is awesome.
the real question is who wouldnt want to claim to be on a columbo-tip
no it is kind of unusual given his humble approach rather than the flamboyant, overtly confident, masculine paradigm usually popular with mcs

yup this is i think what they're alluding to. plus it's funny because it's a show all the geriatrics watch

actually, i think a lot more "boasting" is done in a tongue-in-cheek way than some people pick up on
of course

we should start a thread of "Best boasts"
Loads of old school hip hop records.
i thought it might be standing in that mad hunched style too, flexing columbo style

maybe it's wearing a dirty mac, and only having one eye, like a crackhead. M.A.S.H was on at least two channels on TV every day in the US last week, it was kinda weird in the war context, have they run out of propaganda?

ha. MASH was on?? I haven't seen it on in years, though when I was a kid it was the only thing in syndication practically. I remember being embarrassed by all the innuendo and being grossed out by "Hot Lips" Houlihan
its like... yknow, being really sharp, sussing people out, not getting fooled or fucked about... figuring out whats what and whos who and whos a fake and whos real and down with you etc etc.
i think.
the mac thing is important too though.
as is the looking slightly out of it like you dont really know whats going on when you in fact do.
but the mac is paramount.
hence, mac dre, mac mall and cj mac.
all rabid columbo fans.

It was everywhere, like retro-TV scabies. So weird, I couldn't work out whether it was propaganda, a comment on the war or whether the rental prices are just really cheap for it, maybe the copyright's fallen through lol.

I wouldn't be surprised--also, if it was daytime TV, that's the problem. Daytime TV in the U.S. is unbearably terrible.
