Press Play to listen to The Greater Good - Skeletons

The Greater Good- Skeletons

Here’s the story behind this song:
I (etikid) was running on the treadmill with my iPod and “The Yeah Yeah Yeah’s- Skeletons” came on … I remembering turning off the treadmill, sitting down and listening to the track thinking “what the heck is this? it’s f–n amazing!!” and then i just spaced out because I had not heard anything like it before. The next day I showed the track to Joey Dats and told him we should reinterpret the song as TGG. Next thing you know, J.Dats has flipped the track completely, we start brainstorming ideas, writing about mistakes or “skeletons” in the past that haunt us. We wanted the final vibe of the song to be positive and so we made the hook…

“so you can dig up all my skeletons
don’t worry, don’t worry bout me
I’mma be fine, I’mma be good
I’mma get mine just like I should

We hope both the original artist, fans of theirs, and fans of TGG enjoy this new music art piece that we constructed.

The Greater Good will be Opening for Akon July 21st, 2009 @ Edmonton’s Event Centre.

We at the team, have to give a BIG shout out to P DUBZ, who’s been a essential part of TGG, He’s been there since day one!… Recording us every other day. We’re looking forward to the new studio!

etikid and Joey Dats hit the studio tonight … TGG is working on some new material … expect a lot of different styles of music fused with hip hop, some singing, ill production from J. Dats, lyrical rap from kiddo, and of course something y’all can bob your heads to.

TGG is finally making it easier for anybody to watch our performance videos, behind the scenes takes, and promo videos! TGGMusicTV will be the HQ for the vids so that you won’t have to go through YouTube searching our names… just type in the address, click on the vid, pop some popcorn and enjoy the sights and sounds of The Greater Good.

“…and it goes a lil’ somethin’ like this”
