Bull Run style rap

Name that "Yo MTV Raps"-era video.

I remember watching a rap group video in the 1980s set in the Old West. The rappers were wearing Civil War uniforms and hanging out at a saloon -- not lip-syncing, but just kind of maxing. There may or may not have been a sample of the riff from "Good, Bad and the Ugly." Any ideas what this was?

Wild Wild West by Kool Moe Dee?

I may be totally wrong, but I remember a cowbody-themed video for Intelligent Hoodlum - The Posse (Shoot 'Em Up) off the Posse OST, but that's a 1993 cut.

I'd say Wild Wild West by Kool Moe Dee too.

Best answer: see also Symphony, Vol 1 by Marley Marl and the Juice Crew.

"She's Strange" by Cameo - great freakin song. Has the G,B & Ugly sample.

Could it be from Sadat X's classic Wild Cowboys album? Check this video of Hang 'Em High.
