Song of the Week
"Help! I've Been Robbed" - J-Bru featuring Jay Bizzy and Ghettosocks
When I was listening to "Stick Up" - by Honey Cone (SOTW, 2/5/14), I realized that the "Help! I've been robbed" line would make a great sample for a rap. So I ventured over to my favorite website, whosampled.com, and found the list of songs that have done so.
This one is my favorite.
But do me a favor, listen to this song once without watching the video. Then go back and listen again, while looking at the video.
I think you'll like Ghettosocks.
Note: this song accidentally published on February 12, when I wanted March 12, so I corrected it.

Um yeah, slight case of not looking like I expected. That song is actually pretty catchy btw.
very catching and I like the sample. white kid named ghettosocks?
Socks are frequently white, he is white, makes perfect sense to me.
Apparently these guys are all from Nova Scotia, not exactly a hot bed of hip-hop talent. But they're reppin.
