“The Wesley Willis Fiasco (his band), was something I first came to through the exhortations of my older brother, whom I credit for ruining my life as a young teen by encouraging an unhealthy obsession with music. "He's a giant schizophrenic guy from Chicago that wears sweatpants and head butts people as a greeting. My guitar teacher told me about him. Jello Biafra is his biggest fan. He put him on Alternative Tentacles."

In addition to shouted instructions to lick a camel's balls, suck a dog's dick, or "Tell the barber/ that you're sick of looking like an asshole," I always felt there was something richer beneath the surface-level humor of his songs. Through uncompromising spirit, and an endless recycling of the same hokey casio dance beats and drum fills, something tugged me (and many of us) more deeply into the story of his music. Willis confronted his antagonists and his agitation (a veritable labyrinth of hysterical psycho babel), with these simple, straightforward messages.”

“Long Dong Silver is a British retired porn star known for his large penis. He was born in 1960 in London, England, as Daniel Arthur Mead. His stage name is a reference to the fictional Treasure Island character Long John Silver.
Famed for the apparent size of his penis, reputedly 18 inches (46 cm),[1] he appeared in several pornographic movies in the UK and US during the late 1970s and early 1980s. Photographer Jay Myrdal said that although Silver "was immensely endowed ... a good nine or ten inches",[2] the penis featured in his porn shoots was faked. After at first using "complicated multi-exposure techniques" to enhance it in still photography,[3] Myrdal later persuaded Christopher Tucker, the makeup artist for the 1980 film The Elephant Man, to create a prosthetic. Myrdal described it as "very light, a very delicate foam latex sleeve that fit on over the cock, carefully glued down underneath by the pubes and then made up".[4]”

More about this guy -

“On returning to his homeland in 1781, he became a member of his father's army, being made a regimental commander (Amir), for a campaign that conquered the Bambara. In 1788 he was given command of 2000 cavalry troops for a campaign against the 'Hebohs',[4] who had been harassing the European ships that carried out the Fulani trade in war-captive slaves and the crops to sustain them during the Middle Passage.[8] Though he initially defeated the Hebohs, they later ambushed his cavalry in the mountains, and, refusing to flee, he was shot, captured and enslaved.[4][9]“


“The captive Abdul Rahman was taken to The Gambia River and there sold onto the slave ship Africa,[4][12] reportedly for "two bottles of rum, eight hands of tobacco, two flasks of powder, and a few muskets".[6]”
