HI!

Hey I'm still here, just really busy. Here are a few single track snips of what I've dug up lately.

Baby Huey- Hard Times


What a killer beat. It seems a little ahead of its time, and it's no surprise that it ended up being sampled almost 30 years later by Ghostface Killah. Baby Huey never got to see the release of his first and only album on which this track appears due to a sudden heart attack. He was like 400 pounds or something.



Brenton Woods- Oogum Boogum


                                     

I heard this track in a LRG ad and it immediately killed my hangover.  Don't know much about the artist, but I do know how wonderful this song makes me feel.
                                                                                                                                      

Kenneth Higney- Can't Love That Woman


                                       

There's a lot to say about Kenneth Higney and his bizarre release "Attic Demonstration." It's a weird, low production album with a mediocre singer and disjointed songs. All the ingredients for a bad album are here, but there's something charming going on, I think.
