mark morrison – return of the mack – return of the mack
it’s 1997. this english r&b crooner saw a lot of success in the uk, but this single was his only u.s. hit. it reached #2 in the states while ironically, morrison was jailed for carrying a stun gun onto an airplane. so original gangster… this song samples tom tom club’s “genius of love” and this song is so 90′s r&b, i gotta say, the whole thing is genius. if you have forgotten, turn up your speakers and get your groove slide on.

tobacco – super gum
fans of black moth super rainbow know their leader has started a solo project a couple of years ago called tobacco with an album out now called maniac meat. this song is not on the album, but part of a series of promotional videos for the album which are, nasty, to say the least. this video is nothing short of gross and definitely not suitable to stream unless you are in the safety and comfort of your own home, but somehow its raunchiness fits the song well and the whole thing works.
