how long has interscope been doing hip hop (i honestly don't know). because in college, my friends did promotion for them and it was all NIN & alternative type stuff

Dr. Dre and Snoop were on Interscope!

I think.

Yeah, the early history of Death Row to thread. They could probably afford all the alternative type stuff precisely *because* they were raking in more Dre/Snoop cash than could be counted in 1992/93/94.

roosevelt franklin is a group made up of mr. len from company flow and kimani rogers from the masterminds (also used to run third earth music). kimani is a pisces who is a huge rock fan but the rf album isn't very good. it's really funny though. at one point, kimani has a story about getting robbed at the ATM by kurt loder, where he screams 'motherfuckin' kurt loder tried to rob me at a citibank atm' over a loop of 'scentless apprentice'

brown album is great but c'mon its all about frizzle fry. that album is perfect. its due for an "in praise of..." thread.

Roosevelt Franklin is also a song on Organized Konfusion's first album.

Massive OTM to chaki on frizzle fry. I stopped buying Primus after "The Brown Album", because it just didn't do it for me. I'm about to listen to it again and see if I was wrong.

Nevermind. I was wrong, it's good. Still, Frizzle Fry is better, and fulfills my need for Primus spasticity to a greater extent.

See, I told you ~~guys Primus was funky~~ I'd shoot, but you didn't believe me! WHY DIDN'T YOU BELIEVE ME?!
