"Had to split the new music update with the above gem from singer Fanesha Fabre & Twista that deserves feature status just as much as the new version of "Successful" below. Now, you may recognize the Blended Babies-produced "Problems" already from the Tech N9ne and Twista version that prolly still has you tryin' to catch up. Well, this version is an offical song off the album of singer Fanesha Fabre and I like this one more for the sheer contrast going from Fabre's unique voice and style to Twista's break-neck rap. Twista's verse is lyrically masterful, so much so that I just had to draw a few bars from it below. "The future is bright, or will it be weary? Do I need to pay attention to conspiracy theories? [Question] Is the government systematically destroying the population for the progress of one dominant nation? Smile, even if the landlord callin', dodge 'em.. but that's the least of your problems."" - Chicago Now
"By now most of us are familiar with DJ Le Spam and the Spam Allstars, one of Miami's hardest-working and most celebrated music ensembles. Headed by Andrew Yeomanson, the cast includes percussionist Tomas Diaz, alto saxophonist A.J. Hill, guitarist Adam Zimmon, and trombonist John Speck.We have the Bacon Bits. Assembled by Speck in January of 2003, the Bacon Bits are a rollicking combination of Latin funk rhythms and soulful rants led by Speck's bluesy trombone improvisations and loose raps. * Steve Satterwhite Bacon Bits, left to right: Jesse Jackson; Kevin Sanchez; Little Ray Romero, Jr.; Lucille Cherry; DJ Safe Stadick; Fanesha Fabre; John Speck Bacon Bits, Could a local music scene be growing around pork products and their many derivatives? Though Bacon Bits certainly share some similarities with Spam, the differences are just as evident. " - Miami News Times
