Pool's Closed (1984)

#hardarchive #classicvinyl #strictlyvinyl #vinyl #vinylrip #nostalgia #music #obscurerecords #obscurevinyl #funk #80svinyl #80sfunk
This funk single by "Nick Ross and The Patriots" was released at the peak of the a*ds fear ep*demic / media prop*ganda campaign during the early 1980s. Nick wrote this song to mock the fear and paranoia being spread by the g*vernment and media, which at that time was making people afraid to swim, even in the middle of a summer heat wave.
Lyrics
[Verse 1]
We're in the middle of a heat wave
But you need to close the pool today
No joke its a serious matter
You need someone to block the ladder
[Verse 2]
Had to slap a b*tch right in the face
She was bleeding all over the place
Now the water may test positive
Best close the pool if you wanna live
[Chorus]
Pools closed (pools closed)
Pools closed for today
Pools closed (pools closed)
Pools closed due to a*ds
[Bridge]
Summer is here can't get any hotter
But we can't swim because there's blood in the water
Don't swim if you don't wanna get a*ds
Don't swim unless you're already g*y
[Verse 3]
I cut a b*tch on the water slide
Stuck in the tube cuz her a** was too wide
Now there's aids at the water park
More dangerous than swimming with sharks
[Outro]
Block the ladder, block block the ladder
Block the ladder, block block the ladder
You don't wanna get aids b*tch

2006.... I was sure that meant the meme I was familiar with, was a revival of something older... But nope.

[@AVeryStinkyWizard]

We saved lives closing that pool

​@@AVeryStinkyWizard Yes we did. And we still are saving lives closing the pool.

Habbo Motown Records was a 'fly-by-night' record producer and I think this was their last hit before their motel business collapsed under them.

[@pattom-td7ie]

I served with my brothas that fateful day. You can't handle the truth! Son, we live in a pool that has ladders, and those ladders have to be guarded by men with afros. Who's gonna do it? You? You have the luxury of not knowing what I know, that Habbo Hotel's death, while tragic, probably saved lives. And my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, saves lives! You don't want the truth, because deep down in places you don't talk about at parties, you want me on that ladder. You need me on that ladder!.

Thanks, this video as very educational. I just got hired as a lifeguard and this wasn't apart of my training.

[@scottie6919]

The fact they pretty much all white guys getting smacked is the truth. I feel that shit. I'm white. But i agree with the message in this video. Not because of race, just because of history. I think we could all get things correct today if we could all get on the same level and love each other for what we bring to the table instead of what we look like. AMEN??🙏🙏🤟
