The Overlords had two solid songs on there, including the title cut and a stronger joint called 'Contact Sport.' And I think this lost album shows they were capable of substantially more.įor one thing, this album is widely diverse. I mean, 'Just Go' by Future Shock is, but not the rest of the LP.
Is that a good thing? I think so, yeah! Most of that album was fresh, and not as pop rap or corny as you might expect based on some of Hurby's later output. Or so we all thought but it turns out they came back, or tried to. a bunch of groups who never went on to do anything else. Antoinette had some dope songs on there, and also, uh. In other words, the producer album by Hurby Luv Bug back in 1987, when his groups like Salt-N-Pepa and Kid 'N' Playwere just starting. Who? Gentlemen, please cast your recollections back to the album on your left: The House That Rap Built, by Hurby's Machine.
