Brothas Doobie
Encyclopedia
Brothas Doobie is the second album from Los Angeles-based Latino rap group Funkdoobiest
. It was released by Epic Records
in May 1995 and was produced by DJ Muggs
. This was the final album for back-up MC and hypeman, Tomahawk Funk because he left group after this release. The album contains the famous and controversial track "Superhoes," which also appeared the soundtrack to the blockbuster hit film Friday
, starring NWA's Ice Cube. The album has been falsely shown with a blue cover, several times. It merits a green color instead.
An edited version of the album, which removed most of its explicit language and sexual content, was also released. Additionally, it completely censored the track "Superhoes"—due to references to masturbation and rape—and the track "Pussy Ain't Shit," due to its main graphic theme: the female reproductive organs.
