Joell Ortiz Gives 'em a Little Michael McDonald


The younger generation of music fans may not know who Michael McDonald is, though you may recognize some of his songs--more accurately, you may recognize the beats from some of his songs, which have been sampled by various artists. One such song is "I Keep Forgettin'", which Warren G used for "Regulators" (R.I.P. Nate Dogg). Indeed, the hip-hop world is well aware of McDonald's legacy.

From HipHop N More:
The Slaughterhouse crew is mean group of MCs but that doesn’t mean they don’t know how to have some fun. Last night at their show in Ft. Lauderdale, Joell Ortiz did a hilarious cover of singer Michael McDonald’s classic song ‘I Keep Forgetting‘ while Joe Budden busted some passionate dance moves.
This shit slayed me. Ortiz actually does a pretty damn good rendition, and Budden more than does his part to assist in the performance.
