Let dem ho's fight, dem ho's they did fought
A titty flew flop out singing, knock the bitch out
Left right and a hook, a blubber glut shook
We all bet our dollars everybody screamed and hollered

Let dem ho's fight, let dem ho's fight
Let dem ho's fight, let dem ho's fight
Let dem ho's fight, let dem ho's fight
Let dem ho's fight, let dem ho's fight

And it came to me like a stripper in the night
In this crunk situation they said, let dem ho's fight
Mush mouth began to talkin' shock
From a gold covered grill shot man, them ho's fight

Knock the bitch out was the next phrase that I heard
And the verbs turned to blows as the ho's went toes to toes
Then a stank ho bitch stepped up and shook her fat gluts
And the gargantuan bitches knocked out each other's tooth

Niggahs bet money and the booty shake, music played
And the sex and the violence was displayed
It was hot and it was packed and it seemed like hell
And everybody was under some kind of hoochie spell

Then the casiotone, type of boxing bell pinged
Then someone more stank ho bitches stepped up into the ring
It was hood rat night, the vibe was twisted and right
So I screamed with the rest of them, let dem ho's fight

Let dem ho's fight, dem ho's they did fought
A titty flew flop out singing, knock the bitch out
Left right and a hook a blubber glut shook
We all bet our dollars everybody screamed and hollered

Let dem ho's fight, let dem ho's fight
Let dem ho's fight, let dem ho's fight
Let dem ho's fight, let dem ho's fight
Let dem ho's fight, let dem ho's fight

Then this girl that was just in the boxing ring
Put back on her bikini and she did a nasty thing
She stood a foot away from this fool's mouth
Then she puckerd then she pushed her pussy inside out

This one primate bomber had a gap in her tooth
Got me sweatin' like a convict in a telephone booth
I was addicted to her in some yuppi pervert way
And when she looked at me I go the shivelets and turned my head away

Her opponent straight looked like a jail house gorilla
Big musty putrid, the thrillah, skillit, killah
They collided like to dump trucks in the middle of the night
It was wrong but seems right when they said

Let dem ho's fight, dem ho's they did fought
A titty flew flop out singing, knock the bitch out
Left right and a hook a blubber glut shook
We all bet our dollars everybody screamed and hollered

Let dem ho's fight, let dem ho's fight
Let dem ho's fight, let dem ho's fight
Let dem ho's fight, let dem ho's fight
Let dem ho's fight, let dem ho's fight


Let Dem Ho's Fight

The Clash 1982 classic "Straight to Hell" from the "Combat Rock" album has become one of the band's best loved songs, providing the raw material for future creations. Here the veteran reggae vocalist, graduate of Sir Coxsone Dodd's Studio One University of musical knowledge. Known for destroying musical barriers and giving voice to sufferers the world over, Andy takes up a song first sung by Joe Strummer. The pair first collaborated in 1999. Strummer had written the militant title track to Andy’s "Living in the Flood" album. Recently Milwaukee singer/guitarist/songwriter Eric Blowtorch, who’s worked with many reggae artists over the years and had known Strummer, asked Andy if it was true he’d once sung his own version of a Clash song.

Yes, Andy replied, he’d once recorded a version of “Straight to Hell,” but he didn’t like the way it turned out. He felt it needed a new rhythm track. Blowtorch felt a jolt of anticipation. Out of that conversation comes one of 2016’s most arresting reggae releases: Horace Andy bringing his singular style to a brand new roots reggae recording of “Straight to Hell,” to be released via 12-inch single on Fe True Records  March 16th and via digital download on April 14th. Andy's voacal is backed with a dub side plus Big Youth's deejay version, "Asylum Seekers." Do remember 10 per cent of proceeds go to Doctors Without Borders, the international organization who tend to the health needs of people in the most dangerous places.

With Blowtorch’s Welders bandmate and Fe True Records founder Michael “Dr. Bassie” Bell on bass, celebrated Latin drummer Cecilio Negron, Jr., on drum kit, Milwaukee soul/jazz/chansons singer Robin Pluer on organ, and an all-pro horn section, this take on “Straight to Hell” – which first appeared on the Clash’s Combat Rock in 1982 – captures the song’s cry of compassion for refugees and immigrants.

Celebrating 25 groundbreaking years, FISHBONE has been trailblazing their way through the history of American Ska, Rock Fusion and (so-called) Black Rock since starting their professional career in Los Angeles burgeoning, Alternative Rock music scene of the mid- 1980s. Their sound has often been imitated, but never duplicated. They have toured worldwide with such bands as the Beastie Boys, Red Hot Chili Peppers, The Roots, Les Claypool/Primus, Fela Kuti, The Dead Kennedys and many more. Angelo Moore’s ability to combine thought-provoking, humorous social commentary with FISHBONE’s brethren’s frenzied, up-tempo music and frantic, euphorically entertaining stage show has cultivated their undisputed reputation as one of the best live acts in music history.

Now in their 25th year of composing, creating, recording, releasing and performing original music together, mass critical appeal appears to be returning to the band, fueled by their critically acclaimed full-length feature documentary; Everyday Sunshine: The Story of Fishbone. Narrated by Laurence Fishburne, the film earned LA Weekly’s Critic’s Choice Award at the Los Angeles Film Fest in 2010, has been called “effortlessly Entertaining” (Variety), “Brilliant and Groundbreaking” (Pop Matters), and hailed as “more than a documentary about rock ‘n’ roll. It’s a documentary about the American spirit and one that shows the life of one of its most influential creative forces.” (Encore Magazine). 

The documentary features celebrity testimonials from an A-list cast of rock icons such as Flea (Red Hot Chili Peppers), who calls the band “an important musical institution” and “the band that gave us the inspiration to be a band” by Gwen Stefani (No Doubt). The film also includes similar admiration from the likes of Perry Farrell (Jane’s Addition), Jerry Cantrell (Alice In Chains) Rob Trujillo (Metallica), Questlove (The Roots), Chuck D (Public Enemy), Tim Robbins (Grammy Winning Actor) and many more. The film not only highlights the bands substantial legacy in contemporary music of all forms, but also the struggles, adversity, and inner turmoil that has surrounded the bands career. In late 2011, Everyday Sunshine will premiere its theatrical and DVD releases, and also has broadcast release interest from VH1, Showtime, and PBS to name a few. It has also opened up the possibility of, and widely rumored and sought after reunion performance with all original members of this legendary band.

To date, FISHBONE still continues to tour all over the world, still turning heads at some of the world’s most noteworthy festivals such as Fuji Rock Festival in Tokyo, Japan (2010), Wakarusa in Ozark, AK (2010) and Sunset Junction in Los Angeles, CA (2010). This year, the band recently completed a national U.S. tour with Slightly Stoopid and Dumpstaphunk;
and a sold-out SXSW showcase with Wu-Tang Clan and Mobb Deep. In addition, the band just completed an Australian tour featuring performances with Trombone Shorty and George Clinton, highlighted by a performance at Byron Bay Blues Festival. This summer the band will return to Europe and Japan; and is slated to release a brand new EP end of the
year. For more information, visit www.fishbone.net or www.facebook.com/fishbonemusic.
