SUNZ OF MAN (USA)

12" - Shining Star
Featuring Ol' Dirty Bastard and Earth, Wind & Fire

What can you say? It has something catchy for the real b-boy. But in these days of Wyclef and Puffy recycling old hits it comes very commercial. The delivery of the singing is cool. The beat is recognizable as one of the Wu sound. But when they say in their bio that they want to create a new sound. That they don't want to copy anybody else. You are thinking twice and scratching the back of your head.
Asking the next man: "What do they see what I don't see?". The beat is strong and the singing of Philip Bailey is the most powerfull of all the vocals.

As an RnB single of Earth, Wind and Fire featuring Sunz Of Man (oh yes, also ODB) it would be a better name.
