A hip-hop pioneer was stunned to learn that his 1984 song "Roxanne, Roxanne" was at the center of an explosive legal war between a pair of Long Island library staffers.
"Before, we had to worry about mediating hip-hop beefs in the streets," Kangol Kid told The Post. "Now, we have to worry about them in libraries. That's crazy."
Riverhead Free Library director Joy Rankin allegedly told underlings to only hire black and Latino job applicants to right historical wrongs committed against them, according to a lawsuit.
When business manager Diana Woodcheke objected, Rankin branded her as the haughty "Roxanne" from the UTFO tune.
Kangol, saddened by the role his song played in the dispute, offered to trek out to the small East End branch to hash out a peace treaty between Rankin and Woodcheke.
"Hopefully, we could work something out," he said.
