The band is called "Body Count," and they are a great band with good riffs and perhaps the funniest lyrics I have ever heard.
Listen some of their crap for free:
Their new album is "Murder 4 Hire," you can listen to some of their songs at their myspace http://www.myspace.com/bodycount
My favorite from that album is "dirty bomb." The song is about how eveyone should be afraid of all unwhite, unchristian people, because they're terrorists.
"Murder 4 Hire," a jab at paying people to go overseas and just kill people, is another half-political, half joke-song. For example, one part of the song declares, "I don't care who the fuck you are, cash moves me, MLB, FBI, CIA, gives me money for blood....I'm the type that would kill you with a bloody knife."
Yes, the Central Intelligence Agency, Federal Bureau of Investigation, and Major League Baseball are nefarious forces in our society.
The man never takes himself too seriously, and that's the genius of Ice T's Body Count (I don't listen to rap, so I don't really care what his rap is like.)
From earlier albums, I recommend the following good (and hilarious) songs:
Cop Killer (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=swqzXfQlktc)
Song was banned in 1992, made to be a rocker with a campy feeling. The plot is about a pissed off black guy who hates cops, and when speeding along the highway with loud music, and when "the pigs stopped" him "for nothing," it was time for revenge. As Ice T says, "So your mother's grieving? FUCK 'ER!"
The Winner Loses (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c2clAlabH0E)
A satire of an 80s power ballad, the song is a "deep" reflection on the crack crime wave of the 80s. Of course, it is neither deep, nor is its music video serious. It's a hilarious (and good soubding) joke.
I Used to Love Her (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mw5elipxk4A)
A great song about why OJ killed his wife, and makes fun of how obviously guilty he is.
Born Dead (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X-kwNNLmhd8)
A song that takes a serious subject (how hegemony creates poverty and murderous exploitation overseas) and exaggerates it to the tenth degree. The campyness to the "Born dead! DEAD!!!" part is hilarious.
Most of Body Count's other songs are just repeating the "Body Count" band name, such as "Body Count," "Body Count Anthem," "Don't Fuck with BC," "On with the body count," and etcetera. Obviously, Body Count is a 15 year, 4 album long running joke. It's great so get in on it. _________________ Luke 6:37:
