I should have a better selection of holiday music for tomorrow, but in the meantime here's a rather odd hip hop track that my boy Mike passed along. The song, Hard Call Christmas (or My Christmas Bells), is by a duo named "Elf Elf and Dok-Im." I wasn't able to dig up much information on them, but Mike tells me he first heard the song on 98.7 Kiss FM back around 1987. The song was originally released under B-Boy Records, best known as the label that put out all of Boogie Down Productions' albums.
The track starts out as a parody of L.L.'s classic Rock The Bells, then transitions into Rakim's I Know You Got Soul about halfway through. The song's corny, admittedly, but what holiday song isn't? Have a listen:
My Christmas Bells
If anyone has more information on Elf Elf and Dok-Im, feel free to drop some knowledge in the comments section.
