The Aphrodisiac of Funky Cold Medina by Tone Loc

Today we talk about the Aphrodisiac of Funky Cold Medina by Tone Loc! Tone Loc’s “Funky Cold Medina” went to #3 in the U.S. in 1989, written by Young MC and inspired by a Flavor Flav catchphrase. Whether it’s a love potion, an aphrodisiac or a date rape drug is left in part to the listener to decipher. We take a look at some popular and effective aphrodisiacs in this hard-hitting episode of Sick Burns! 

A Cold Medina was a catchphrase originated by Public Enemy’s Flavor Flav, which indicated something good, a personal affirmation. In this instance, it’s a beverage or additive that causes sexual arousal. 

A Funky Cold Medina may actually be something like a fuzzy navel. Sound good? Here’s a recipe so you can enjoy one at home while listening to this episode! https://tipsybartender.com/recipe/funky-cold-medina/

Be careful not to overdo it, or you might get a nasty case of transphobia, like our pal Tone, who treated poor Sheena most unkindly. 

Important correction! We figured out what Prince is saying in U Got the Look, and it is not “One of Us!”. This gif will give it away.
