Today’s video of the day is MC 900 ft. Jesus With DJ Zero – “Truth Is Out of Style” released in 1990.
MC 900 Ft. Jesus, led by the enigmatic Mark Griffin, emerged onto the music scene with a bang in 1990 with their album “Hell With the Lid Off” on Nettwerk Records. This groundbreaking release marked Griffin’s debut on a major record label and introduced the world to the mesmerizing sounds of DJ Zero. At the heart of this album lies the cult favorite track, “Truth Is Out of Style.” With its catchy beats and thought-provoking lyrics, the song quickly garnered a devoted following, propelling MC 900 Ft. Jesus into the spotlight.
Following the success of “Hell With the Lid Off,” MC 900 Ft. Jesus continued to push boundaries with their subsequent albums. “Welcome To My Dream” (1991) delved into the complexities of the human psyche, while “One Step Ahead Of The Spider” (1994) showcased Griffin’s unparalleled storytelling abilities. Throughout their career, MC 900 Ft. Jesus confronted controversial topics head-on, from the exploration of a serial arsonist’s mind in “The City Sleeps” to the existential ponderings of “If I Only Had A Brain.” Each album served as a window into Griffin’s multifaceted musical vision, captivating listeners with its raw honesty and innovation. Behind the turntables, Patrick Rollins, better known as DJ Zero, skillfully crafted the sonic landscapes that defined MC 900 Ft. Jesus’ sound. His collaboration with Griffin resulted in a fusion of hip-hop, electronic, and experimental elements that set the group apart in the music scene of the late 1980s and 1990s.
Despite their early success, MC 900 Ft. Jesus faced challenges within the music industry, leading to Griffin’s temporary retirement in 2001. However, a triumphant return in 2017, marked by a sold-out concert at The Kessler Theater in Dallas, reignited hopes of a revival for the iconic group. As fans eagerly await news of a potential fourth album, the legacy of MC 900 Ft. Jesus lives on, reminding us that truth may indeed be out of style, but its pursuit remains as relevant as ever in our ever-evolving world.
