It's a "Thin Line" between an awful song and a cover version that very nearly elevates it.

Do you (or does anyone else) remember a rap song from the early '90s that seemed to be arguing against race-mixing with some collage-cut snippets alleging dilution -- "black man / white woman / white baby" -- something to that effect?  I have a totally vague memory of such (which may be wholly misremembered for all I know) and your INXS ref reminded me of it.
