Marky Mark And The Funky Bunch ~ Good Vibrations You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton | |

Pretty awful. This is when alot of folks started to lose the plot in the music- industry. "Marky Mark" was neither cool nor hip and had about as much business making hip-hop records as Gerardo did. It was all whack as hell back then and looks & sounds just as worse today. A pale imitation to say the least. Pat Boone with a backwards cap... | |

I like Gerardo and have 4 of his albums. Gerardo still records today in Spanish. Good Vibrations is a fun dance track. I don't really care about if it's "real" hip hop or if someone is cool.

Here are a couple of tunes by Gerardo from 2011. You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton | |

Pat boone would have been better suited to do a rap album then markey or vanilla Pistols sounded like "Fuck off," wheras The Clash sounded like "Fuck Off, but here's why.."- Thedigitialgardener

Lawd this is awful. But that female vocalist is good tho. Has she done any solo work? | |

She's Loleatta Holloway, who was a disco and R&B singer from the 1970's. She passed away not too long ago.

I will never forget when Eminem and Mark were on TRL and Em was clowning Mark over The Funky Bunch (which btw, sounds like a 70s era Hanna Barbera cartoon) and Mark looked like he wanted to beat Em down. "Lack of home training crosses all boundaries." | |

omg yes!!
To be fair, even though he is not a rapper. Mark does have that don't fuck me look, and Eminem would have been destroyed. Pistols sounded like "Fuck off," wheras The Clash sounded like "Fuck Off, but here's why.."- Thedigitialgardener

Here's the original from 1980. Loleatta appears in Marky Mark's video. Black Box's Ride On Time comes from here too.

Gun, cosign. I don't care if Em is from Detroit, ain't no one scared of his ass. Mark is from the hood in Boston and that is about equal with Detroit. Mark a straight up THUG. Old boy went to juvie when he was 16. He don't play. "Lack of home training crosses all boundaries." | |

I like the mix that was on one of those MTV Party To Go remix compilations. You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B.

This funk is a serious joint | |

Ooohhhh! That shit was funny. Mark had this look like...."Bitch, I'm not Christina Aguilera, between the two of I'm the one that actually went to jail for beating somebody down". Mark definately wanted to put some Southie woop ass on him. | |
