Tone Loc not doing nearly enough stuff

A Twitter exchange with @RobertJamis today led to the realization that rapper-actor Tone Loc has been more or less inactive for the past five years. He’s done some voice acting and he played himself in a 2006 made-for-TV movie written by Neal Brennan (of Chappelle’s Show fame) and Ken Tremendous, but that’s pretty much it.

So I hereby lobby the world (and Tone Loc) for way more Tone Loc. I’d definitely go see a Tone Loc feature movie. Perhaps an Ace Ventura spinoff focused on Tone Loc’s character and what he’s doing now, 16 years later (ed. note: holy crap, it’s been 16 years?).

Anyway, until that happens, enjoy this excellent bit of Tone Loc voice-work, from some movie called Fern Gully from 1992, featuring a vaguely euphemistic Tone Loc song:

  1. Tone was really good in a small role in Heat, the film by Michael Mann.

    Now that I think of it, that was over 15 years ago as well. I’m not as young as I used to be…
