About this listen
In this One Shot episode of Rewind & React, Adam and Rob travel to a dystopian 2095 to break down Tupac Shakur's "California Love," featuring Dr. Dre.
This iconic 90s anthem comes to life in a music video that pays homage to the Mad Max universe, complete with wild, post-apocalyptic imagery, modified vehicles, and tribal punk costumes.
Here’s what we’re covering:
- The Mad Max universe setting, featuring warlords and a "Fury Road" style race.
- The video's place as a potential first, and certainly best-known, homage to Mad Max in a music video.
- The cultural impact of the "Thunderdome" concept.
- Discussions on the Mad Max film series, including Fury Road, Road Warrior, Beyond Thunderdome, and the original Mad Max.
- The significance of "California Love" as a West Coast anthem during the East Coast-West Coast rivalry.
- Behind-the-scenes insights, including Jada Pinkett's initial involvement as director and Hype Williams taking over.
- Notable cameos from Chris Tucker and George Clinton.
- A trivia game distinguishing between Tupac Shakur and Will Smith.
Tune in to relive the 90s and explore the cinematic masterpiece that is "California Love."
