Does Anybody Remember that Old School Rap Group UTFO? They were popular around the mid-80's, with songs such as "Bite It", "Split Personality", "Roxanne, Roxanne", and the ballad "Fairy Tale Lover". I like them alot, they were kind of the "Outkast of the 80's", if you will. I can hear some of you thinking to yourself, "Who is UTFO, and why do they make you think of Outkast?" I know some of you will disagree with me on that, but UTFO was quite popular back in the 80's. Anybody remember them and whatever happened to them?

of course I remember! they were the hard core outlet for the Full Force production team and emerged outta the whole "Roxanne" blast.
last album I have was "Bag it and Bone it" from maybe 1991 or 1992 Vanglorious... this is protected by the red, the black, and the green. With a key... sissy! | |

I'm glad that somebody remembers them. Didn't know that they were associated with Full Force (I like them too), and that they had an album out in 1991 or 1992. RIP, mom. I will forever miss and love you. | |

Split Personality used to be my jam when I was a real young buck! For years I couldn't find anybody else who remembered that song. I glad you posted this thread. Brings back memories.

UTFO were a lot of fun. Roxanne Roxanne was easily their best and best-known song, but I also really dug Split Personality. That song is so 8th grade for me. | |

I remember them too. But, lately I've been thinking about The Boogie Boys (A Fly Girl). I think they were out around the same time. | |

Hmm, I thought that UTFO did the song "Fly Girl" (at least that's what the track that I d/led from Kazaa said). But it could be incorrect, because peeps are always putting the wrong artist's name on certain tracks. RIP, mom. I will forever miss and love you. | |

Full Force's greatest hits disc is excellent. And You Be Illin' cracks me UP! My boyfriend had never heard it until a few months ago and he couldn't stop laughing at these lyrics: Dinner, you ate it There is none left It was salty, with butter And it was def You proceeded to eat it Cuz you were in the mood But holmes you should have read It was a can of dog food! | |
