An actor and former soccer player, he was also a two-hit wonder in the pop world. His raspy baritone and smooth-like-butter delivery separated him from the vociferous pack of rappers - he was a crossover Rakim Lite, cartoonish and non-threatening. Hits: "Wild Thing" and "Funky Cold Medina" - produced (or mixed) by The Dust Brothers, written by Marvin Young ("Young M.C."), and featuring mainstream hardrocksamples long before Puff Daddy's Hooked on Familiarity plundering.

A fantastic wardialer from back in the day that would actually color-code its findings and display a kinda map of the exchange you were scanning so that you could locate patterns and perhaps use that to your advantage.
