What Happened To SPORTY THIEVZ? No Pigeons Hit Song! R.I.P Brando

Today’s feature is a group from the 90s, early 2000s that were really on to something and in a lot of ways were just in the right time to have success, even if it were a niche based audience. They are most noted for their antifeminism and male perspective rebuttals to songs by female groups like Destiny’s child and TLC. At the time no other hip hop acts were focusing on this lane so presented the group with and interesting transition from what they were previously known for, which was lyricism and a cinematic approach you could also say was a bit ahead of its time. Their debut album was a standout in the late 90s that just missed the mark of being a classic. But the ride wouldn’t last long. A few year after its release they would lose member Marlon Bryant who was hit by an alleged drunk driver who swerved onto the sidewalk he was walking after leaving at local deli around 3 am in the morning. He reportedly pushed a young boy out of the way just before being hit but could save himself. After his death the remaining group went into a more than 10 year hiatus as far as albums released and since then you rarely ever heard from them if it wasn’t releasing semi parody rebuttals to popular songs that led the feminist charge like “Independent man” in response to Destiny’s child Independent Woman. They didn’t only have great concepts, but a unique opportunity to become just as big a group as any in hip hop and for these reasons that didn’t happen. What Happened To SPORTY THIEVZ?
