Not to derail your deconstruction but I like that Ill Bill song too. I had heard of him and Non Phixion but hadn't actually listened to him.
I got a little bit obsessed with Uncle Howie (now deceased) today and he was quite an interesting guy.
Here's Ill Bill talking about the song.
And here's Uncle Howie himself hearing the song.
And here's the video of Necro (Ill Bill's little brother and other nephew to Uncle Howie) filming his uncle and a friend smoking crack and shooting heroin for the video for his song "I Need Drugs"
Upon further research I found the "making of" the I Need Drugs video on youtube. It's in three parts and is some of the most disturbing
shit I've seen in a while. The "making of.." vids include Uncle Howie going into a seizure while his friend begs Necro and the film crew to call an ambulance. They just stand there and giggle as they film Uncle Howie passed out on the floor. It kinda ruined my day.
