MC Frontalot., isn't what I would've branded “nerdcore” but he sure claims he is, over & over in his music which I won't call just “rap” because it's way too musical, and the home made digital production is top notch. It's a hoot & well worth a listen. Someone I turned on to MC Frontalot said it sounds like if Zappa were a rapper. This proves that white people can be funny & have serious rhythm too.

2004 DETROIT MUSIC AWARDS: OUTSTANDING ROCK/POP RECORDING OUTSTANDING URBAN/FUNK
HIP-HOP RECORDING . She has a magnetic spiritual enthusiasm and a voice that positively radiates. Sista Otis and the Wholly Rollers are part of Detroit's Urban Folk movement. A style which draws on the city's eclectic Motown, hip hop R& B & funk -rock heritage. And they can rock! And she can sing, and the drummers can drum and their new CD is called “Worldwide Release.” If You are a club owner lucky enough to have these folks play, for God's sake get your sound system in good enough shape to handle a real rock n roll band, cause these folks deserve to be heard clearly.

You can say it’s just my opinion but I’ve been to a LOT of shows this past year, every conceivable style of music from metal to country to techno to punk and right now it’s got to be Americana style ensemble 'The Everybodyfields' Who are giving the most impressive performances and songwriting at the moment. Now Featured in 'The Listening Room.'

GFE is more serious, style & socially conscious than MC Frontalot and obsessive over their particular brand of space age spirituality. G.F.E .,which also stands for “God Force Energy” amongst many other things is a REAL touring band with drums, guitars, & horns as well as the large posse of hip hop DJ and rapper personas who take turns dishing out the jams. Rumor has it they recently shared the stage with George Clinton in New Orleans who also appears on their newest CD “Bigger than it Really Is”
