Well, the two teams that I
thought might be capable of beating the New England Patriots were sent home
yesterday. Both the Indianapolis Colts and the Dallas Cowboys played
sloppily and pretty much assured that Tom Brady will be named King of the
Universe after he throws 12 touchdowns in the Super Bowl. Bummer.
On a more positive note, Del The Funky Homosapien has readied a new solo
effort (his first since 2000's Both Sides Of The Brain). It's
called The 11th Hour, and since Del is one talented artist I would be
very surprised if it didn't turn out to be one of the year's first snazzy
hip hop releases. Definitive Jux will be putting out the entirely
Del-produced disc on March 11, so mark your calendars. Enjoy.

The Funky Homosapien - Bubble Pop:
"Why do you think that you are all that/Cuz you ain't."
Not only is this simplistic line fun to sing-a-long with in
a taunting fashion, but it pretty much sums up the playoff
performances of the Colts and the Cowboys. Weird how
that works out, right? Anyhow, apart from the song's
lyrical prowess it also happens to be absolutely raucous as
far as the music goes, so feel free to thump it as loud as
possible the next time you're at a stop light. For
once others will appreciate it. I promise.
I'm not sure
that all of you know that Del has been doing this for a
really long time, so I hit up Youtube and found a video for
one of this older songs called Mistadobalina. I
hope you're ready to go old school.
