DEF JAM 10th YEAR ANNIVERSARY (Def Jam, 1995)

venerdì 29 febbraio 2008

"Def Jam recordings was born of a good, if unlikely, idea, and has lived to celebrate its tenth anniversary -and to look beyond it into the 21st century- because of the vision of its founders, the strength of its artists, the promotional genius and hard work of its staff and, finally, because of its dedication to that founding idea: that black youth culture has been and remains a fountain of creativity whose products will find an audience in the world beyond the ghetto."

Di che genere? Ho scaricato, szippato e passato in rapida rassegna i vari pezzi ma non ho trovato nulla di sospetto

Le Las Ketchup hanno ripreso la Sugarhill Gang e questo conferisce loro un certo status ghettuso, però.
