The
debut album of
Digital Underground released in 1988.
According to Digital legends, back in 1987 Humphrey (
Humpty Hump) suffered severe facial burns in
a freak kitchen accident. He was forced to continue his rapping career with the addition of a
false nose. Instead of hiding the event
surreptitiously, however, Humphrey chose a joke nose, leading to
much merriment and a series of tribute records.
The
staple of the majority of DU's music consists of
Parliament and
P-Funk samples.
Sex Packets was a loosely contrived
concept album about Humpty and
Shock G being dealers of a drug (
Sex Packets) which caused the recipient to have
wet dreams. Their latest album was released in
1999, entitled
Who Got The Gravy?
