Cramming on a Wired deadline this afternoon, so we’ll outro with yet another track that the essential WEFUNK recently turned us on to. The group itself, Strictly Roots, is mighty obscure—as far as we can tell, they released just one album, back in 1993, before vanishing into the ether. But they were big enough to convince Fat Joe and Grand Puba to appear on this song, so they apparently had quite a bit going for them during their brief golden age. Of course, this was back before Fat Joe’s waistline really expanded to McCrary Twins dimensions—a more anatomically accurate handle for him back then would’ve been Portly Joe.
