EP Review: People Under The Stairs — Stepfather - Page 2

Other songs of interest are "Reflections", which has sort of an morality message to it. I don't think there is anything wrong with using your position as a performing artist to get that kind of thing going. They pull it off really well and it is entertaining as well as simple, real advice especially for kids who might get a little too wrapped up in the illusion that music often paints for them. Other personal favorites of mine are "Pass The 40" which has a real sort of funkiness to it and features a Chi-Ali sample. "The Doctor and The Kidd" (which features George Clinton) is also a cool tune. Then again, "Pumpin’" is hot too, as is "Tuxedo Rap" (which is playing here) and.... OK I admit it, I like the entire album.

    Did that EP have any linear notes that might help me identify the song playing in the backround at the beginning of Letter to the Old School?

    Unfortunately my copy was a promotional disk in a plain jewel case and I didn't have the normal liner or anything. I would suggest you ask People Under The Stairs via their myspace site:
