Music: Hip-Hop Del Tha Funky Homosapien w/ Devin the Dude and the Coughee Brothaz

With beats beamed down from the Parliament mothership, Del Tha Funky Homosapien's discography is the soundtrack to an intergalactic sock hop. In a genre where even partying can be political, Del's fly-by-night, sly-by-day rhymes pack a punch, even if the closest we get to proselytizing involves chastising the "Style Police" and lessons on how to make a dollar out of 20 cents. His cousin Ice Cube produced his 1991 debut, I Wish My Brother George Was Here, yet the Oakland native's playful jabs sounded G-rated compared to Cube's acerbic assaults. Now that Del's long-awaited fifth official album,The 11th Hour, has found a home on forward-thinking label Definitive Jux, he has even more reason to keep the party going.
