Buy the album

In celebration of the near 100 degree temperatures we had here in the Bay last week, I’d like to plug a great Summertime album. PigeonJohn and the Summertime Pool Party is full of the kind of happy rap that you grew up with as a kid. Pigeon John was born in Nebraska but came up performing in LA’s Good Life Café. He has remained an indie act but gets a lot of local exposure, such as this performance on Morning Becomes Eclectic. There aren’t many rappers that seem down to earth enough that I’d actually want to hang out with them, but Pigeon John is that sort of fella. Even his wife (pictured on the cd) seems cool. She runs a non-profit that helps women extricate themselves from the sex industry. I’ve had “Money Back Guarantee” in my head for a few days now… check him performing it at FOX ROX:
