1990: "Burn Baby Burn", 2 Black 2 Strong MMG

"So just hand me a flag from the fascists / and watch while I burn that motherfucker to ashes". Nearly impossible to imagine this song coming out in 2010, though I'm sure the sentiment still simmers in many corners of the ghetto. Not much known about this band, so not a lot to tell, but according to All Music Guide the Burn Baby Burn EP had to go through an alternate manufacturer, as the label's go-to pressing plant refused the order on the basis of the incendiary album cover. Otherwise the group put out a full length album the next year, Doin' Hard Time on Planet Earth, before the scattered members faded into obscurity. We'll be revisiting that album when the blog gets to 1991.
