C&L's Late Nite Music Club with Ugly Duckling

"Turn It Up" from 2003.  LastFM:

Ugly Duckling are a hip hop trio, formed in 1993 in Long Beach, California. Ugly Duckling’s members are Dizzy Dustin, Young Einstein and Andy Cooper. Their style is alternative hip hop, influenced especially by old school performers such as the Zulu Nation and the Native Tongues Posse. Most of their songs follow the creed that hip hop is about having fun and often mock the clichéd gangster rappers who dominate the mainstream.

I'm not a hip hop guy but this is one of the best music videos ever. EVER! And the music ain't bad either.

Del The Funky Homosapien - Mistadobalina

Beastie Boys - Sure Shot

Jurassic 5 - What's Golden

I grew up with the underground station WHFS in the DC burbs. Basically if you've never heard it before and it was really good; you were listening to WHFS.

That's where I discovered the Tubes and (pre-popular)REM.

I left the radio at home tuned to it, and my (swing era) mother LOVED it.

Thank you bluegal, you are refreshing my interest in music.

man, i loves me some ugly duckling!

...and 'HFS ruled it!

I met these guys before in LA, Ugly Duckling gets a lot of respect on local radio and college radio.

Einstein makes real good beats, clean production.

Wu Tang Clan - Gravel Pit

Afrika Bambaataa - World Destruction

Rage Against The Machine - Renegades of Funk

ELO - THE WAY LIFES MEANT TO BE? [HQ]

luv UD. check em' out in this hip-hop doc that was (is it still?) playing on starz: http://paulkell.com/5SidesofaCoin.html

Like much good rap, this would be better if they'd cut the chorus and just spit.
@ #8: HFS really fell off around 2000, so much that I prefer the Spanish channel that took over. But it was cool in the 90s.

How about a LNMC segment featuring Eric Avery's new album. Eric used to be with Janes Addiction. His new album sets the bar.
