On the bass trio's enhanced CD,Lizard, Lizard, a video of three women "pleasuring each other onstage" plays on your PC once the user clicks on female rapper Jiggie's ass.Although a label on the CD warns retailers and consumers of the pornographiccontent, retailers have returned truckloads of CDs, refusing to carry themin their stores. The CD, released February 23, also contains a link to theLuke Records Website (www.lukerecords.com), which not only contains explicitmaterial, but information about Luke Records. - Bonanno
