Who Am I?
Y’all, this is the most glamorous Glamourshot promo photo I’ve ever seen. Not only does it have more potential for joke-crackin’ than almost any other dead-serious picture I’ve ever posted, but figuring out who this is will not be easy. The hint is that one member went solo and only four of the men pictured here are orginal members.



Is that “The Deele”? Babyface’s old group. Wasn’t LA Reid in the group too?
second from the left is clearly lil richard’s biggest fan
At first I thought the comedian Chocolate had fallen on hard times. Then I thought light skin bol was the Blasian cat from Fine Young Cannibals. I would say this is Public Announcement.
Yep, that’s “The Deele” all day, minus Face and Reid…I recognize the lead singer up front…”it looks like your body’s talkin to me!”
Kool and the Gang??
Ummm…wow. That has to be the most mis-matched group ever to step out in history. Were they even in the same room?
i don’t know who these people are but they are frightening because they are stuck in whatever decade they were famous in. yikes.
Well, that second from the left is CLEARLY Mr Gaines from A Different World. Who let his old ass outta The Pit?
All that picture is missing is Al Reynolds and Jonathan Plummer.
Anyway, the dude in the middle looks a little familiar.
So what do you think? Please be respectful to other readers!

Malt Liquor: A Historical Examination
By Thembi Ford on May 18, 2008
The other day I made a joke to one of my coworkers about 40’s and she had no idea what I was talking about. I always think really hard when someone doesn’t get my jokes, and it made me realize that the 40-ounce beverage, and malt liquor in general, has somehow become a distinctly black phenomenon that is difficult for foreigners to fully grasp. But how did American black folks become the key market for consumption of this drink?
