Daily Deviation
March 18, 2008
You don't need to do a great realistic work to be valued as an artist. You don't need to be a Michaelangelo or a DaVinci, neither be already worshipped for your creations. Instead, we also feature with Daily Deviations many artists already trying their best, with a picture we think it's worth to be promoted and exposed. 'Before the Gorillaz...' by =Sobii is one of those jewels: Eye catching, cheerful, a "gansta furry" with an artistic flare and attitude to match. The thumbnail is already luring, but the full view is even better...
Description
...The was MC Skat Kat (and the Stray Mob). And some of you would do good to remember that.
So...what IF MC Skat Kat and the Stray Mob actually became popular? What would that do for the Rap/Hip-Hop music industry today?
I don't think we'll ever know, but I have a feeling that if, indeed, he became popular, he would probably have some BLING. I think BLING was something that eventually would have happened, regardless of where the current of the Rap/Hip-Hop flowed.
***
There were merely a handful of things that had gotten me interested into art, as a whole, at a young age. No, I hadn't been reading comics all my life. No, I wasn't "born with a pencil in my hand." I was--and still am, I guess--a musician.
And, I cannot emphasize enough how time I spent in front of the TV watching MTV music videos after school, regardless of whether or not my homework was done, waiting for the music video for "Opposites Attract" or "Skat Strut" to come on.
I cannot emphasize enough how often I listened to the "Skat Strut" single--ON CASSETTE--when I was a kid.
So, I did it. And I won't revisit this again, because it's done, and it's over with, and I can move on...rather, finish all those other things I started.
Hats off to you, Michael Patterson. I hope you are well.

"OMG Does he have GRILLZ?"
--The first thing my mom said when I showed her the work in progress.
You can laugh now, if you haven't already. It IS funny.

I think it would have been cool if MC Skat Kat got his own animated TV show, really unfair that MC Hammer did but not MC Skat Kat.
