If you hung around any die-hard hip-hop stoners in the mid-’90s, then you probably heard a good chunk of the Duck Down Records catalog. Those MCs — including Heltah Skeltah, Black Moon, Boot Camp Clik, etc. — proved to have longer shelf-lives than many of their hazy-headed contemporaries.
And now, according to a news release, they’re suckling at the Disney Co. teat: Some of ’em have recorded songs that ESPN will use during its broadcasts of men’s college basketball this year. The list includes:
Buckshot of Black Moon, “All Business” (produced by Tai Dealz)
Tek of Smif N Wessun, “Get in the Game” (produced by KB)
Heltah Skeltah featuring Buckshot, “Getcha Team” (produced by Optiks)
Smif N Wessun, “Push It” (produced by Sic Beats)
(Insert your own hardass Dick Vitale rhyme here.)
