In a recent interview with Ambrosia For Heads, The Alkaholiks shared behind the scenes details from their classic "Hip-Hop Drunkies" collab with ODB. "It was the most memorable studio session ever," says J-Ro concerning their 1997 collab, from their third album, Likwidation. "[ODB] was about two or three hours late. He comes in with a couple of bottles, and we sat there for another three hours before we even started doing anything."
Ro adds that the beat for "Drunkies" actually came from the intro to "The Symphony" video. "We used to watch videos at King Tee's apartment, and every time that video came on, we'd pump it up, because the intro beat was so hard. We only had it on VHS and the sound was so bad, we couldn't use it."
