Dig Of The Day: Joe Pesci – Wise Guy (1998)

Hey folks! Today I got some goodies for ya’ll, keep reading.

Since I couldn’t find a decent video for Wise Guy on YT and the one I found on Dailymotion has a horrible audio, I spent over an hour assembling the Wise Guy audio from CD and 7″ single version onto the video as it differs a bit from the video version, so I had to play around a lil’ bit before Joe‘s 2nd verse.

The first 27 seconds, the audio is from the video version which is pretty bad, but right after that I added CD audio for the sake of sound. I couldn’t find the full video anywhere on YT so I decided to assemble it, upload it and share it with everyone but because of Content ID claim the video was blocked in a blink of an eye. Therefore, I uploaded it here so be my guest and download it since it (the video at least) can’t be uploaded online.

Wise Guy is very likely the only rap song recorded by the legendary New Jersey actor Joe Pesci.

Samples used are Rapture by Blondie (1980) and Won’t You Be My Neighbor? by Fred Rogers (1968)

Produced by Cory Rooney.
