Parker and the Numberman – Pick Up The Phone!

[vimeo]http://vimeo.com/3097925[/vimeo]

The tunes that Parker and the Numberman unleash upon the world remind me of a French indie film from the 80's. Not implying that they're out of date or not marketable in the commercial arena. Rather because "French", "indie" and "80's" all have a distinct style and flavor that is, for the lack of a longer syllable word, DOPE! Combine all three of those words, use them as verbs and you have a dope product that Frank Lucas would be proud of. On a side note, 80's indie flicks from France are a goldmine for you sample digging connoisseurs.

The rhyme fluidity of P & T can be compared to two guitar players of the same band. Parker would take on the melody section while the Numberman (A.K.A. 1019) would hold down the rhythm side of the spectrum. Each guitarist has his own purpose and is very talented in his own right, but the stronghold of this particular crew is how they compliment each other. Not only in rhyme form, but also in their visual playbook.

Shalom!! I’m Caleb of San Diego Hip Hop band The Concrete Project (theconcreteproject.com). Also, Caleb of cooking blog Ramendays.com. Also, Caleb of that one incident in New Hampshire when I got real inebriated and thought I was the maid robot from The Jetsons. But let’s not talk about that right now. My favorite movie is Cool Hand Luke and my favorite song is Justin Timberlake’s “Still on my brain”. I used to run a mile and a half in six minutes and thirty seconds, but going into my golden years I’m at about 10 minutes flat. I wear my hat to the back when I’m feelin’ myself, but if I’m not really into it, I’ll rock the brim to the north. I still have all my wisdom teeth. I write with my left, type with both hands and throw a baseball with my right hand. My favorite basketball player is Detlef Schrempf. I am a true believer that you cannot give yourself your own nickname. A nickname must be given to you. Also, there is a time frame when you can start remembering the times. If something just happened last week you can’t be like “Remember the time when we rode that stallion?”. THAT JUST HAPPENED LAST WEEK! You gotta let that bitch breathe before you can start remembering the times. 3 months is good to start remembering the time. Okay, I’m done here. Walaikum Assalam
