Click to listen to Spank Rock's 'Everything Is Boring And Everyone Is A Fucking Liar'

Spank Rock's second album, Everything is Boring and Everyone is a Fucking Liar, finds the Baltimore rapper exploring fresh new sounds and beats while retaining the rowdy, sexy party-rap vibe of his 2006 debut. The new disc, which features collaborations with producers Boyz Noise, XXXchange and Sam Spiegel and guest vocalists Santigold and Big Freedia, has a harder edge. Cuts like "The Dance" and "#1 Hit" lean on heavy, distorted electro hooks, while "Car Song" balances a warm bass groove with an icy, bad-ass tone. The album will hit stores on September 27th, but you can preview it in full now.

“Everyday People”

Sly and the Family Stone | 1968

"Everyday People" managed to trailblaze in two different ways -- it was one of the first pop hits to deal with the subject of racial harmony, and it utilized Larry Graham's "slap" technique on the bass guitar, which would soon be copied by countless other bassists. Graham once said about his pulsating style, "I'd never done that before … that's where the freedom of creativity came in for the band, that we'd be allowed to do that." In 1978, the song's line "Different strokes for different folks" would be borrowed for the title of the hit television show Diff'rent Strokes.
