Cliche scratching.

Milli Vanilli references pending!

I've heard this one somewhere before.

It is over.

It's "Soul Makossa".

It's a very good and unique album - extremely rough around the edges and more often than not a set of solo tracks by the three rappers - imperfect and yet glorious.

Others may have a different take on it, but as a die hard hip-hop fan it remains a watershed elpee.

Poll added BTW.

Has Wendi gone to have a scalding hot shower and scrub herself violently with a pumice to feel clean again?

I felt the final track was among the stronger tracks on the album.

Overall, I felt it was an album of two halves, with the second set of songs being stronger than the first. I feel they should have stuck to doing songs about matters that have a core resonance, rather than the sex and drugs stuff that proved to be distancing and lacking in emotional vitality.

Now to look back at the thread and see what everyone else made of it.

I'm half in.

Beats.
rude words.
Gunshots.


Track 2.

Funkay beats. Rude words. Disrespecting of women.

I like this one.

Couldn't' find your typewriter.

I used to like them, Blimey were Spearhead disappointing.


Hang on the Geto Boys have just name checked MC Hammer. Didn't quite catch what they thought of him. I bet they liked him.

There was always some debate amongst my friend and I (we, amongst our friends were the only ones who really liked hip-hop) as to what the Geto Boys meant by a "G.O." - "Do It Like a G.O." etc...

Obviously we assumed that the G stood for gangster, but couldn't understand why the O came after the G - especially when O.G. was a generally accepted acronym in the rap/gangster community for "original gangster".

We did entertain the thought that it might be a Francophone version "gangster d'original", but that was obviously absurd.

Ultimately we decided that it stood for "gangly otter".

Musically this is quite similar to the stripped back Yo! Bum Rush the Show.

Not as a powerful, but funkier.

And more potty mouthed.

Samples.

James Brown.

I loled at the the Might as well say up front you'd like to hug her line.

Another I'm not saying that in the Morgue.

I think I prefer this guy, the shouting guys good in short bursts but over a whole song, it sounds like he needs a lie down.

That said I'm getting a Gangsta Fur Q vibe from this one.

Funky drums though.

Streetsweeper

Chuckie.

Is this about Hannah Spearitte?
