Only those who know the history of that song and this school will understand.
I'm curious, what's the story here?
On another note, I know that last summer, we had a discussion for the need to establish some traditions, like a HR song, etc. It's nice to see everyone embracing the 'Pump It Up' song as our own.
I won't go into detail here. But the song use to be played every game. It was also being played in major venues like Madison Square Garden. Someone associated with the school questioned it as a racist song. I researched the song and found out it was a about a one eyed man who went from town to town stealing other men's women. It was historically sung by black menstrual groups. It was even sung by Nina Simone. I brought all the documentation to someone within the athletic department. It never went anywhere. And, until recently, the school banned it from being played.

Now do the detailed version JK
It was a song I heard all the time at games growing up.
Like 33 said, someone in a position of power complained so it went away

The Cardiac Hawks did it again today! Came back from down 5-0 in the 5th to win it 6-5. 3-0!
We’ll try to make it 4-0 with one more game today.

Watched some of it. Phelan and Gair have upside.
Are you the PA guy for basketball only or both? It was a nice touch to add that the players were introduced as a senior headed to the line last night.
