The prompt is Message
Grandfather Ridiculous, “I Get the Message” from EP, 2002

Is it #HipHop? Yes. Is it #jazz? Yes.
Grandfather Ridiculous was a #NewYorkCity-based group formed at the New School in Manhattan in 2000, using live #acoustic instrumentation, #beatbox, and #sampler along with the chillest vocals this side of #DigablePlanets. They played live in clubs around the northeast US; the tracks on his ep, their sole recorded output, are studio recordings of fan favorites from the gigs.

Oh, and that *other* hip hop ‘message’ track? Yeah, I remember hearing that for the first time and literally sitting up to take notice, eyes wide, as the thought struck me: “Oh THIS is what #rap music is for!”

The Skinny Boys - “Jock Box” (1986)

My friend had this on a mixtape (cassette) so we’d hear it often while hanging out. For us, at the time, it was more a novelty tune, inspired by The Fat Boys' member Human Beat Box.

From their debut LP, “Weightless”, which I’ve since found to have a bunch of cool tracks with that classic 80s rap sound.

Of course, if you’ve seen the show “Workaholics”, you’ve heard this during the opening and closing credits.
