Re-watching The Wire, and I need the name of the song that plays in episode 6 of season 1 when D'Angelo is getting dressed and the TV is on...
Lyrics go something like this (copy-pasted from forum post cause I couldn't make most of it out with all the background noise):
... and the beat goes on like one of those nights that goes on too long
like one of those songs that could have got cut the fuck off along time ago my friends...
...about the laws of hip hop, laws you know those laws
those laws of hip hop ya digg and you should have read that book i recommended cuz if you did you would see....
...now if you don't have a hip hop license..
If need be I'll install virtual dub and cut out the part where the song is played.
I've already googled a ton and went through 20-some pages in a thread dedicated to the music of The Wire on the official forum to no avail (song was asked about 4-5 times but nobody knew it).
Halp-meh TL.net?
I found two The Wire soundtracks but it did not seem to be on it.

I tried FA, I tried, but I, too, have failed you.
Goddamnit movies/tv shows should have to give credit to every piece of music they use. 
|
i've tried too, but can't find it. do you have a video or sound sample of when it's played.
|
EDIT: Holy shit I didn't read the OP

"Respect the Nubians" - Positive Black Soul
Edit:Sorry this is not the song you are looking for, this is the 2nd song that's played.

Like a bird on 'The Wire'
Like a drunk and a midnight choir
I have tried
In my way
To find the name of the song.
Sorry

Yes, this is it. The reason you're having such a hard time finding this song is because Positive Black Soul is an obscure hip hop group from Senegal who perform mostly in French and not English.
|
Anybody have a link where I can hear this song? I am currently listening to Positive Black Soul on Last.fm, but I can't find just this song anywhere.
|
Edit: Nvm, doesn't matter since I confused the songs

Really appreciate the effort Amnesia, but this isn't it - "respect the nubians" is the song that plays right after the song I'm thinking of.
I'll try to upload a clip tomorrow.
