I Need A Freak
"I Need a Freak" is an influential rap/ electro song, originally released in 1983 by the musical act Sexual Harassment. It has been recorded and sampled many times, most notably by the hip hop group Black Eyed Peas for their 2005 hit song "My Humps". The song itself quotes from Antonín Dvořák's "New World Symphony." In 2011, the song's composer, Lynn Tolliver, won a $1.2 million lawsuit against former collaborator, James McCants, who licensed use of the song without Tolliver's authorization. Tolliver, a popular, long-time DJ from WZAK in Cleveland, Ohio told the Cleveland ''Plain Dealer'', "I don't get all that money, and I don't have any of it yet, but this couldn't have happened at a better time... I've been unemployed the last few years and was near bankruptcy, so this is a blessing." Tolliver was well-known in Cleveland for his on-air stunts and was once attacked by a gunman at the station in 1985. Tolliver is listed under his pseudonym David Payton on the album credits. T ...

The hip region is located lateral and anterior to the gluteal region, inferior to the iliac crest, and overlying the greater trochanter of the femur, or "thigh bone". In adults, three of the bones of the pelvis have fused into the hip bone or acetabulum which forms part of the hip region.

Electrocute (band)
Electrocute is an American-German rock group. It was founded by Nicole Morier, a singer from Albuquerque New Mexico, and former member Mia Dime in Berlin, Germany in 2002. The formation was motivated by the explosive electropop/electroclash music scene happening in Berlin at the time. After releasing one EP and one LP on the now defunct Emperor Norton records, Dime left the band and Morier continued touring, hiring Holly Doll, from Johnson City, Tennessee, to fill in. The two toured extensively throughout Europe, America, and Australia, where they played the Big Day Out festival in 2005 and met Sydney-based DJ Mindy, a.k.a. "Legs Le Brock," who was DJing an afterparty. Morier eventually moved to Los Angeles and temporarily disbanded the band to pursue her songwriting career. Later, she met up once again with Legs Le Brock, who had also recently relocated to LA. The duo began doing DJ nights, and when Morier was asked by Mexican arts and culture magazine ''Celeste'' to tour in ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
