S.O.D. "Dirty Dawg" by NKOTB

3/4/2016     From there 1994 album "Face the Music," this G Funk,/East Coast hip hop song was released one year before, charting in six countries. On the Billboard hot 100 it topped out at #66 and ranked the highest in New Zealand at #13.  The rapping you hear is mostly done by the artists, Nice & Smooth.  During the instrumental breaks however, small bits of rapping are done by Donnie Wahlberg who also has a writing credit and is a current member of the group.  

     The boy band from Boston are of course all grown-up now.  They made 7 albums, have sold more than 80 million records worldwide and are active again after reuniting in 2008.  Their biggest phase of popularity was after their formation in 1984 through the early 90s.
