Flashback: Brotherhood Creed - Helluva

Just reflecting back on some of the golden era early 90s cuts. Some nice lyrics here, including:

"She looks mo' better so I want her mo' badder than a big man in quick sand hopes for help"

"She's the talk of the town and I'm the reporter"

"Now she's mad because she thinks I'm violent. The treatment I get is ________ silent"

Still trying to determine if that's Martin Lawrence doing the seated shimmy bit @ about 1:09 in.

You Should Check Out Ohmega Watts

I've had Ohmega Watts in rotation for a few months now but just this morning played That Sound again and damn if that isn't one hot cut, y'all.

Someone has uploaded it to YouTube:

Check This Out: Lyrics Born

Just heard about Lyrics Born and am liking some of his stuff. In particular, these felt sweet in my ear (note - these link out to iTunes):

* I Like It, I Love It

* Callin' Out
featuring the 'if you feel it your heart reach out like Redd Foxx' line, which is nice

* Do That There

Another find while browsing MySpace Music.

Another tip from Current TV, and [of course] YouTube. Actually, it's not bad, either. Move Some'm, by Lao Crimino.

You Should Check Out Gonzales:The Jewish-Canadian Hip Hop Prankster

His name is Gonzales and he hangs out with Puppetmastaz.
Saw him on Current. Reeled in by the subtle brilliance of declaring himself a "Jewish-Canadian Hip Hop Prankster", I found a little more on YouTube [of course]. Learned that Mr. Maloke [in top hat, below], announced the Congress of Puppetry, in Berlin.

Not for nothing, but Gonzales looks a bit like a cross between Lou Ferrigno and Bronson Pinchot.
