Beth in Utica must've have done something really bad. The Brothers just made my house a home.
Where's the Behind the Music for these little bastards?
White people in Cross Color outfits were always a treat.
These kids are called Family Force 5 now.
I thought these kids were some gangstas?! whas up wit that last video dogs?
And be e-z with all the Cross-Colors young homies.
I bet their closet is filled with Fubu & Southpole.
who wrote this shit/ certainly wasn't the kids. I call INDOCTRINATION
god I hate utica, i went to school there (mvcc) utica is a dumb and i hate it. that is all!
They're no "Rocky Road To Doom"...

I guess the cereal bowl wouldn't fit over the tall kid's head.
I didn't think it could get worse:

Although I'll venture to say that their music videos have improved: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0V95A7UIQ3I
Oh wait - I just got to the green screen part...
When you said I love you Jesus it seemed more like you wanted to make love to Jesus.
The parents were arguing over who got the royalties to their children's music.
His parents are obviously splitting up because he just didn't pray hard enough. Jesus is like Santa, you can't just be nice on Xmas eve and get what you want!
He should feel bad.
So, I spent all this money on this shitty LifeCall bracelet and all I had to do was ask Jesus?! Someone's gonna get slapped with my newtestament!

Did nobody notice in the 3rd video that there is rain coming down the window where the parents are arguing but it was clearly NOT RAINING OUTSIDE.
airplane - The house is obviously crying over not being a home.

That video, like their work as The Brothers, combines really nice production values with a terrible song, but it makes me weep for the future. What will our children be able to mine from old DVDs and put into 4D space youtube videos?
All of our generation's horrible dated nonsense is already made of references to older terrible things.
Our progeny will have to call their cyber-bio-website "Everything is Ironically Terrible" and it will make you want to kill yourself.
That's odd. I see an orchestra of brats playing on the lawn (maybe if they stopped playing mom and dad could relax after a rough day)but all I hear is synthesizers...no real orchestra music at all! How can X-ians shoot their mouth off about the truth and then lie about the little things?
Hold the fuck up there...I've fallen and I can't get up??? They're making fun of that poor elderly woman from the Life Alert commercials - "We'll send help immediately Mrs. Fletcher."I love the one floating, random black guy, no doubt placed there to give the Brothers street credibility.
I gotta say, the first video may have thrown in every single early 90s cliche there ever was, but it wasn't terrible. It's lame as fuck and those colorful clothes look like clown getups now, but don't you wish rap was positive or benign like it was in the early days, before it started being about crime and R Kelly?

Beth in Utica didn't do anything bad, in fact she did something very, very good. I, on the other hand, blew the shofar.
"Urge to kill..rising."
Oh... snap. Now I know who Defenestrator III is.
@Fat 'n Boring - thank you. Homer Simpson was never more apt.
don't you wish rap was positive or benign like it was in the early days, before it started being about crime and R Kelly?
Anon, rap in that period was about social issues: Public Enemy, KRS-One, Gang-Starr etc. Those artists were describing what they and their community lived through. It wasn't a whitewash... unlike this dreck, which took the form of rap (I'm being generous here) and stripped it of all content. Result: 3 young white Christian kids as a producer's mouthpiece, whose got his own idea of rap from Fresh Prince of Belair. It's not benign, it's derivative and borderline racist i.e. Terrible. OK, rant over.
Let the video speak for itself. Making of dance or die: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ShQvhlCQa6s
Kriss Kross and Krist?
I have nothing to add. I haven't even watched these. I'm only posting because my verification word is "humpbo"
Actually I think the first one's pretty cool, from a 90's point of view. I had no idea christians could produce a music vid of that quality.
The 3rd video though... absolutely humiliating to watch. Were those boys wearing ponchos? As if the bowl haircuts weren't bad enough
PS: Hehe. humpbo
I beat those guys are on Psychopathic Records like every other 90's has-been rap group. Nothing hides shame like greasepaint.
I'm not sure what I did but it must have been really bad because I can't remember.
Sincerely,
Beth from Ithaca- I mean Utica
if there's anything worse than christian rap, I don't want to see it.
does he say "jesus you can heal the sick, and even help men BOWL????"
lyrical genius.
My parents were about to get divorced last night, but I showed them the last video and they changed their minds :~)
These videos hurt me
Somebody please have a mirror!
