Have you ever wondered what day Ice Cube was actually rapping about in his "It Was A Good Day" hit single? Well, Donovan over at Murk Avenue deciphered the mystery behind the track.
CLUE 1: “went to short dogs house, they was watching Yo MTV RAPS” Yo MTV RAPS first aired: Aug 6th 1988
CLUE 2: Ice Cubes single “today was a good day” released on: Feb 23 1993
CLUE 3: ”The Lakers beat the Super Sonics”
Dates between Yo MTV Raps air date AUGUST 6 1988 and the release of the single FEBRUARY 23 1993 where the Lakers beat the Super Sonics:
Nov 11 1988 114-103 Nov 30 1988 110-106 Apr 4 1989 115-97 Apr 23 1989 121-117 Jan 17 1990 100-90 Feb 28 1990 112-107 Mar 25 1990 116-94 Apr 17 1990 102-101 Jan 18 1991 105-96 Mar 24 1991 113-96 Apr 21 1991 103-100 Jan 20 1992 116-110
CLUE 4: Dates of those Laker wins over SuperSonics where it was a clear day with no Smog:
Nov 30 1988 Apr 4 1989 Jan 18 1991 Jan 20 1992
CLUE 5: “Got a beep from Kim, and she can fuck all night” beepers weren’t adopted by mobile phone companies until the 1990s. Dates left where mobile beepers were availible to public:
Jan 18 1991 Jan 20 1992
CLUE 6: Ice Cube starred in the film “Boyz in the hood” that released late Summer of 1991, but was being filmed mid-late 1990 early 1991 and Ice Cube was busy on set filming the movie Jan 18 1991 too busy to be lounging around the streets with no plans. Ladies and Gentlemen.. The ONLY day where: Yo MTV Raps was on air It was a clear and smogless day Beepers were commercially sold Lakers beat the SuperSonics and Ice Cube had no events to attend was…
JANUARY 20 1992 National Good Day Day
Mystery solved. Now go proclaim the good news and make sure to mark your calendars
