|
African American old-time string band, which combines bluegrass and folk. Beatboxing in all tracks. All songs are midtempo, and all are recommended. FCC Clean. 1. Bass line is killer on this. Male and female vocals, fiddle takes top spot. 2. Male and female vocals in Portuguese. Fiddle line reminiscent of typical Portuguese fado. Hand clapping and whistling at end. 3. Bluegrass reworking of the Blu Cantrell’s hip-hop hit. Female vocals. 4. Folksy, angry female tirade against the man. “There’s chicken in the fridge.” Best line ever. Powerful fiddle line and crazy good vocal turntablisms. | ||
