Holy shit, I remember this one! Every once in a while I'll be doing chores and and some phantom voice whisper-sings in my ear....

"Be cool about fiiiiiire safety..."

And then it's gone.

When I got this spiel in elementary school, I made my family's fire safety plan and presented it at supper. It consisted of crawling into my parents walk-in closet -- California closets are highly effective fire retardants.

Love the circa-1997 Busta Rhymes-style leaning into the camera. His old videos were always the best.

the Court Ordered Community Service Rap Crew is the bomb

YES. My siblings occasionally throw this one out to get on my nerves. Good find.

The girl in the orange was trying to seduce me at the end.
Result: Failure

The set really is a rip off of "Gimmie Some More"

yeah, Busta Rhymes' career is rolling over in its grave.

This totally riffs on Beastie Boy "So What'cha Want."

The best part about this video is that it never actually explains how to be safe in a fire. The only information given is that if you're "cool" somehow your invincible to flames. Pure mastery.

This is so phat! I totally relate. This PSA is reaching me on a level normally unattained by wack firemen.
