This week on Broken Records we’re rapping, we’re rapping, we’re rap, rap, rapping. Remfry and Steve continue to look high and low for music's most terrible document by running the rule over 1989’s Standing In The Spotlight by former Ramone bassist turned unlikely hip-hop hero Dee Dee King, AKA Ramone.

Clearly inspired by the early rap scene of his native New York, an impressionable Dee Dee decided to reinvent himself from leather jacket wearing punk rocker to gold chain and backward baseball cap sporting rapper. It’s not exactly the most obvious fit, and Standing In The Spotlight has inspired many laughs at Dee Dee’s expense over the years, but, despite the fact that this is really quite a poorly made record, there might just be a few things to admire about it.
