History's First Thugs

Dear Reader,

Some of you may know I have been toiling away on a historical hip-hop album involving Abraham Lincoln and Benjamin Franklin. Those of you who don't, do now.

Well, the album "History's First Thugs" has arrived in time for President's Day. There is some sort of a MySpace page for those who want to hear samples: http://myspace.com/historysfirstthugs

Additionally, it has received some press in a local music blog. http://gapersblock.com/transmission/archives/2007/02/#017932

That is all. If you'd like to order the album, or talk to Abraham Lincoln or Ben Franklin, they've got their own e-mail at abeandben AT gmail DOT com. The album goes for $10 (two portraits of Abe Lincoln) or $100 (one portrait of Ben Franklin). Your call.

Thanks.
