Dude. It might've been ONE song or an EP. We'll never even know.

THAT'S my point. They weren't even good.
I just think >it's unfair to say that Ice T is full of shit because he >didn't hire them as his backing band. Just because you are a >fan of a band doesn't mean that you automatically are going to >make them your band on your side project and I'm glad that it >never happened.
No, but if you're doing someting that they're good at, why NOT give them a look. Especially if you have the leverage to do it? Rappers put other acts on all the time.
