“Don’t Kill the Goose…”

July 1st, 2009 · 2 Comments


In our never-ending quest to bring you the classic tracks behind our favorite hip-hop cuts, today we bring you the U-Roy and Hopeton Lewis collaboration “Tom Drunk.” It only takes a few seconds’ worth of listening to realize that the song’s best riff was long-ago copped by Reflection Eternal for “Fortified Live,” a tune notable for some of the ’90s greatest rhymes: To wit:

I’m sippin wishing well water imported from Pluto
That’s why my eyes is glassy, so ain’t got to ask me
The interplanetary Illuminati move your body
I trekked the stars first, so fuck Kirk and Scotty

And:

So gather ’round, to hear the profound brown vomiter
Absorb the sonic energy manifestin through your monitor

Reflection Eternal is back with a new video, by the way—can’t say we’re huge fans, but always nice to see the great James Worthy get a visual shout-out.

Also, please let us know how the new Grooveshark widget works for y’all. This could help liberate us from the tyranny of YouTube, provided it works as advertised.
