Sweater-loving, Jello-eating, 80’s sitcom dad Bill Cosby is releasing a ‘feel good’ hip hop CD in May.
Cosby Narratives Vol. 1: State of Emergency blends the comedian’s concepts and stories with a hip-hop, pop and jazz soundtrack.
So what’s Cosby’s ‘feel good’ release going to address? “The value of an education. The value of respecting one’s self and … giving (listeners) a chance to raise their self-esteem and confidence,” Cosby said.
Cosby’s longtime musical collaborator Bill “Spaceman” Patterson commented, “He (Cosby) has always understood rap’s potential, but he was appalled by the foul language and the misogyny — the way people used a medium that could be used to elevate people, to open their eyes and provoke thought.”
Guest rappers provided the 70-year old with the rhymes for the album.
We’re glad Cosby is getting this out of his system. Now maybe he’ll shut his piehole about how rap music is evil and shiz!
