Show Notes
Alex and Jordan explore the genesis of Sir Mix’s salute to the glute, a wild saga that involves guns, nuns, and a 50-foot fiberglass butt. For the Seattle MC, it’s a surprisingly personal battle against racist beauty standards, as well as a fierce fight against censorship practices — and the vandals who keep popping his enormous inflatable ass during its promo tour of the country. As “Baby Got Back” turns 30, find out how Mix made the goofy-yet-serious ‘90s classic, and just how many butts he was forced to study to create the iconic music video.
