As Heard On TV: Anthony Hamilton Listens In On “The Wire”
Our meager collection of regular readers know that we’ll make any excuse to mention HBO’s The Wire, a.k.a. The Greatest Show In The World, And Possibly The Most Amazing Thing To Happen In Popular Culture In Twenty Years (Except For Some Really Good Books). Anyway, last night featured a brief but memorable fast-food-joint back-and-forth between MccNulty and one of the corner’s regulars, scored by Anthony Hamilton’s fantastic 2003 slow jam “Comin’ From Where I’m From.” For anyone who wants to re-enact that scene–or who needs an excuse to investigate Hamilton’s overlooked oeuvre further–we’ve included an MP3 of “Comin’.”
