1) William L. Calhoun, Jr. (born in 1970), better known by his stage name WC pronounced "Dub-C" and not "Double-U-C", is an American West Coast rapper. He was born in Texas, but moved to Los Angeles at an early age.
Known for his long braided goatee, lyricism, and Crip walking, WC has been a staple in West Coast gangsta rap since the early 1990s. He also is a known Crips member from 111 Neighborhood crip gang a California based gang.
WC began his career with underground rap groups such as Low Profile and WC and the Maad Circle. His 1998 solo debut The Shadiest One landed in the Top 20, featuring such singles as "Cheddar", "Just Clownin'" and "Better Days". The Ghetto Heisman followed in 2002 and featured the song "The Streets", which also landed in the Top 20.
2) WC (Wyidealizowana Ciemność) is a punk band from Poland formed in 1981 in Miastko.
3) WC was a Swedish punk band. It was formed in 1979 by guitar player Niklas Andersson and bass player Tommy Eger. After a turbulent and somewhat unserious start, the band got it’s first gig in autumn 1980 as a trio with Jörgen Bröms on drums and vocals. The group became a quartet in spring 1981, when they picked up Perry Ingman for a drummer and Jörgen moved over to guitar. With this lineup they won a rock band competition in autumn ‘82 in which the price was to record a single. The single was recorded the days before new years eve the same year in Pop Studio in Eskilstuna. A-side was “Polis, polis” (Police, police) and B-side was “Pappershjältar” (Paper heroes). The record was sold in a somewhat different way. A concert was organized where the audience, for only 20 SEK (~$2), got both the single and the concert with three bands. When Jörgen in early 1984 decided to leave his home town the band decided to play a farewell concert in Eskilstuna Folkets hus. Jörgen was replaced with Tony Andersson, previously singer in the band Kontaktlim, but shortly thereafter the band split up anyway.
The former members kept playing together in different constellations. Perry and Tony played in, among others, Pussy Galore and GASTONES (president gas), and Tommy and Jörgen (who moved back to Eskilstuna in 1986) played together, for a short while, as Alla presidentens män.
WC was reunited in 1999, with all former members except Niklas. Among other things hey played at Pipaluckbolaget’s gala in Eskilstuna, and also rerecorded 12 old WC songs. The recordings were supposed to be released on Rosa Honung Records, but they never were and WC went under once again.

4) WC was born in New York City during 2003. The band chooses the controversial name “WC” in an effort to contradict the glamorous and fashionable situation flooding the world of modern music.
On July 2007 Sterling Sound in New York chooses WC’s “Ashes” to be featured on “Sterling Sound’s emerging artists player” an honour that places WC among the best newcoming bands worldwide.
Their debut album “WC” is released by Legend Records on December 10, 2007 throughout Greece and Cyprus.
The initial line up (2003) consisted of Wastor (Vocals, Guitars, El.Violin), Amanita (Drums, Vocals) and bassist Kevin Hummel. During the following 2 years they colaborated with various bands and performed in various clubs around the NYC area including CBGBs and the Barracuda. The band’s sound during that time was heavily inspired by the nu-metal and industrial-metal scene. They recorded a four song promo CD that included “Mr. Pink” a song that attracted the interest of Daniel Glass of Artemis Records, one of the largest independent labels in NYC.
2005 finds Wastor and Amanita returning to Athens Greece, while they begin recordings for their first album in the Greek language. The band’s sound evolves towards a darker Gothic sound and they release the song “Ou Foneyseis” (“Thou shall not Kill”) featuring Georgia Kefala (Mple) on vocals, and their first video clip “A.M.Y.M” directed by Constantine .
WC’s aggressive sound along with their heavily inspired by gothic imagery stage image, attracted the interest of L. Mahairitsas (a Greek platinum selling singer). The result of WC’s collaboration with L.Mahairitsas was the song “Falaina”, released by Minos-EMI Greece, and presented live in Thessaloniki, on a show aired on “NET” (National Greek Television) that watched more than half a million people.
In February 2006, WC return to their initial trio form, with the addition of Johnny Ray on el. bass, a position that later will be taken by Manos “Elfman”
WC’s debut album “WC” released Dec 20, 2007 and is a “bi-lingual” album having versions of their songs both in Greek and in English. Within 2 weeks WC hit the Greek charts while the media praises its release in their critics. Their video clip for “Ou Foneyseis” will be nominated for best video of the year 2008 (category: alternative) by MAD TV (Greece’s biggest music video TV network).
5) WC, an Israeli alternative rock duo, consists of the brothers Aryeh and Avshalom Hasafri, who write poignant political texts and create dance music that is not necessarily intended for performances in clubs. The brothers' joint work began in the living room of their house in Florentine, Tel Aviv and continued through leading festivals in Israel and street protests in Balfour, Jerusalem.
80's Babies
WC Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
[Chorus: W.C.]
If you was born in the '80s then I'm probably your papa
Cause 9 times out of 10 I fucked your mama
9 times out of 10 she gave me drama
But, fuck that shit, I'm all about the dollar
When you see me in the streets you can call me daddy
When you go see your mama know I hit that fatty
Back in the day, before she got ratty
I, had her ass in the back of my Caddy
And, you know I done it, I'ma keep it 100
Back when she had more ass than stomach
Back, before her looks started to plummet
She would call me everynight, beggin' she want it
I would go pick her up, then dick her up
Then stick her up, for some gas bucks
For some lunch money, and some fast food
Nigga was a pimp before a Nigga With a Attitude
And when you picture that I know you wanna get your gat
Understand atomic dog always get the cat
And if young motherfuckers ain't feelin' that
I wish she can open up, and put ya back
[Chorus: W.C. (Ice Cube)]
If you was born in the '80s then I'm probably your papa
Cause 9 times out of 10 I fucked your mama
9 times out of 10 she gave me drama
But, fuck that shit, I'm all about the dollar
(If you was born in the '80s then I'm probably your papa
Cause 9 times out of 10 I fucked your mama
9 times out of 10 she gave me drama
But, fuck that shit, I'm all about the dollar)
[W.C.:]
Stomp down, bang loose for the cash figga
It's the candypaint blue '6-deuce ass lifter
Talk trash off of liquor then we kickin' yo' bitch ass up
Wipin' the grass off your back nigga
I'm one of the few of the true last y'all
Reppin' the G's and I ain't easin' off the cash y'all
Disrespectful ass groupie new nigga
Can't do shit but shut the fuck up and salute me nigga
Lench Mob, Big Swang the chrome eight arms
Been doin' this since Magic was playin' at The Forum
When Boogie Down and Scott Laraque dropped
I was at the Raising Hell Tour fuckin' your mama in the parking lot
When LL was rockin' the bells, before Cardia and Chanelle's
I was skeetin' on the Gazelle's, in slow motion
But only if a nigga knew she was havin' you
I would have made the bitch get an abortion
[Chorus: Ice Cube (W.C.)]
If you was born in the '80s then I'm probably your papa
Cause 9 times out of 10 I fucked your mama
9 times out of 10 she gave me drama
But, fuck that shit, I'm all about the dollar

Cause 9 times out of 10 I fucked your mama

The lyrics to WC's song 80's Babies, featuring Ice Cube, tells the story of two men who were players back in the day, boasting about their sexual conquests with women who eventually gave birth to children in the '80s. The song opens with a chorus by WC, proclaiming himself as the possible father of those born in the '80s, and that those women caused him problems, but he's only interested in money. Ice Cube then adds his verse, calling himself "daddy" in the streets, boasting about sleeping with these women, referencing his younger days when the women were more attractive, but now they have "plummeted." He also talks about his pimping days and how he used to get the women for gas money and fast food. WC's verse follows, showcasing his style and creed. He represents himself as someone who has been around since the early days of hip-hop and has known many women. He tells the story of how he had sex with women while hip hop legends like LL Cool J and Boogie Down were performing on tour, and now he is telling their children that he is probably their father.
Overall, the song's lyrics are rather crass and emphasize a misogynistic, aggressive, and exaggerated masculinity. The lyrics are not suitable for all audiences, but the song demonstrates the dark underbelly of the rap world during the '80s and '90s.
