So, since bandwidth problems and such are so decidedly not enjoyable, I thought I'd have a little fun with this post. And if anything's gonna be said about Boostin' Kev, the man does make me laugh.
Though probably most notable for his uncanny similarity to Biz Markie (by ear, anyway), especially on Smoke You On The Mic, Kev is plenty entertaining himself. And, for a 12", this disc is loaded... with three songs, remixes for each of them, and a couple of instrumentals to boot.
As far as the content, well, it's probably not for everybody. Takes a discerning ear, I'd say. Way back in the radio days, most of the requests were for That Be Boostin', but today, for this post anyway, the real substance is with Dunt Da Dunt Dunt. I mean, it's clearly hard to ignore lyrical gems like "hip-hop a-chop chop choppity chop chop" or any Roto-Rooter references alike, let alone the broken jack-in-the-box beat. And I'm not sure where the Old McDonald fits in, but remember, I'm just a lowly blogger.
To my man L-Flava that be boostin'

That Boostin Kev 12" really is entirely crazy in terms of how close dude sounds to Biz.
Thirstin Howl III made a reference to Boostin' Kev on his last album - apparently he hung himself with a sheet on an up north trip.
