The Monday Shuffle

iTunes

Every Monday I shuffle my entire MP3 collection in iTunes and list the first ten songs that play.  Here are the ten tunes I heard today with a personal story about one of them.

  1. One - U2
  2. Don't Go Off Wandering - Limp Bizkit
  3. Commotion - Creedence Clearwater Revival
  4. Faith Collapsing - Ministry
  5. The Thanksgiving Song - Adam Sandler
  6. Journey On - Dream Warriors
  7. One Big Crunch - White Zombie
  8. Say It Ain't So - Weezer
  9. Stellar - Incubus
  10. Lullaby - Hayden

King Lou and Capital Q were (are?) the Dream Warriors, a hip-hop duo from the Jane & Finch area of Toronto.  I picked up And Now, the Legacy Begins upon hearing thier breakout lead single, "Wash Your Face In My Sink".  Other hits followed, most notably "My Definition of a Boombastic Jazz Style".

And Now, the Legacy Begins was fresh and fun, but that was the last I heard of these guy.  I remember they signed Tom Green's hip hop band Organized Rhyme back in the day and made a cameo appearance in their "Check the O.R." video filmed at the Food City at Jane & Finch.

They were good, but where did they go?
