Gangsta Sounds for 3.17

Deadboy and the Elephantman - We Are Night Sky
"Props to Tim Hennessy for turning me onto this great garage/rock/basement/blues two piece....A poor man's White Stripes if you will, but I won't. This band stands out on their own with dark introspective lyrics that demand repeat listenings. Plus, I've never been more turned on by a drum beat."

De La Soul - The Grind Date
"So much for completing the AOI trilogy...good, because this is the best De La album ever (said with much respect to 'De La Soul is Dead')...great production from Dilla, 9th Wonder, and the stand out track, 'Shopping Bags' by Madlib. Sorry Prince Paul."

Thanks to Beatbox aka Mij for turning me onto Da La Soul in the "Autographs" section of our sophomore yearbook. Signed -Gangsta Warner (still signed in as Beatbox though).

I like "Evil Friend" off the Deadboy album. Along with "Basturds" on RFTC's paint roller album it best describes in song-form my relationship with the co-editors of Y.I.T.S.

I'm just saying, while I'm giving credit to Tim H. for a group, I erred in forgetting to give credit to Mij. -Gangsta (forever signed in as Beatbox).
