1) The first is an alternative hip hop duo from Queens, New York, consisting of Andres Dres Titus and William Mista Lawnge McLean. They were a part of the Native Tongues Posse, which included Jungle Brothers, A Tribe Called Quest and De La Soul. They debuted in 1991 with the hit song "Flavor of the Month" and later released their first album, A Wolf in Sheep's Clothing, which gained them praise and recognition in the hip-hop community for its unique rhythms and intelligent lyrics.
A Wolf in Sheep's Clothing charted three times on the Billboard Hot Dance Music/Club Play chart in 1992 with "The Choice Is Yours" (#9), and "Strobelite Honey" (#1). Black Sheep were also featured on Vanessa Williams' album, Work To Do (#8).
Black Sheep was also one of the first groups to parody gangsta rap (still in its infancy when A Wolf In Sheep's Clothing was released) in the hilariously over the top "U Mean I'm Not." It describes in cringing detail a dream one of the members had about shooting his sister for staying in the bathroom too long, and his mother for breaking his egg yolk while cooking breakfast. When he is roused from his sleep, he tells his friends in a bewildered, almost frightened voice, "I dreamed that I was... hard."
The group's second album, Non-Fiction, was seen as not living up to the group's well-established talents. Due to virtually no promotion and a generally poor reception, the album managed only lackluster sales. Titus and McLean would separate soon afterwards to attend to various independent projects. In 2000, they reunited to record a track for the movie Once in the Life. Dres is currently planning to release a new mixtape titled 8WM under the name Black Sheep, scheduled for release in the summer of 2006. Mr. Lawnge, now known as Mr. Long, has distanced himself from this new release.
Dres was featured on the second Handsome Boy Modeling School album, White People, on the track "First...and Then".
2) The second band who go by the name Black Sheep. They are a Hardcore Punk/Ska band from Mouscron, Hainaut, Belgium. Their influences include Leftover Crack, Choking Victim, Capdown, Comeback Kid, No Cash and The Filaments.

3) The third band named Black Sheep is a Classical Rock three piece band based in York, U.K. Who's most interesting feature is that their drummer is also their vocalist. Although a musicially brilliant band they have yet to break out of their genre and play within set guidelines. They can be found on last.fm under the name Black Sheep Experience
4) The forth band is a Heavy Metal rock band from Hollywood, Ca., formed in 1981. Black Sheep fronted by Willie Basse is famous for having more than a few members that would go onto greater fame in other bands including Paul Gilbert, Slash, Randy Castillo and James Kottak They sold the name to the rap group in the 1990's, but the rappers never fulfilled their contractual agreement. Therefore the rock band continues forward with current media and releases. Their first album titled " Trouble in the Streets" released in 1985 on Enigma Records #72071. Second release EP, " Sacrifice" is currently available. Black Sheep is known for their precision & technical prowess. They are mainstays on the world famous Sunset Strip.

Hoes We Knows
Black Sheep Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The Suga Dick Daddy Mistah Lawnge and myself make up
This crew called Black Sheep
Now uh, I knows a lot of hoes
And being that I knows a lot of hoes I get asked a lot of times
Dres, whats up with you and all those hoes?
Well check it
I'm the type of brother that is swinging with a fiddle
Out to get a lot because I never like a little
Which is why I ban a dip that claims she's in the middle
Met a honey riding on the trolly
Looking kinda Dolby said that I could call her Molly
Said she had a lover that went by the name of Polly
As she kicked it, I thought that I should dolly
She said Polly want a cracker but the dip is not desired
Cracker got a honey though she's about to be fired
He wants to get Anna better yet he wants to bone her
Anna's got a man though and I don't think he would loan her
I said honey honey I said it slow
Coming is my stop and I really have to go
Not to cut you short or to interrupt your flow but uh
Whats up with the mojo?
She gave a big grin, I knew that she was with it
We stepped off and we Niked (huh?) We just did it
Boots were kind of fly yeah I like the way they fitted
Honey was the woman and to her I did admit it
Lathered up the nuts and I changed my shoes
Took off the browns and put on the blues
Sweetie I'm the paper called the Daily News
And today's headline reads: here you can't snooze
After she was dressed we both broke out
Said she had to go and see a brother with clout
She said I'm hungry, hungry no doubt
Uh lemme get a hot dog with extra sauerkraut
She stepped to the left I stepped hard to the right
"Can you spare a quarter?" Yo black go fly a kite
Gave a little bark but he wouldn't dare bite
For that would be the end of his night
Walk the city streets wonder who I'll see
There goes Mistah Lawnge and my man Peewee
Look upon their faces coincides with glee
What's up Dres yo what's up P
What's up with the skins said I just got deep
Did it cost a lot, naw the boost were cheap
Costed me some time and a little bit of sleep
A fresh jimmy hat and some kosher meat
Guess I got their goose to their toes they rose
My man Peewee broke out but Lawnge stood in a pose
Lookin at some kids going by in afros
Then pulled out a book entitled "Hoes I Knows"
Listen, Mistah Lawnge
What's up
Being that a brother such as yourself knows so
Many hoes
Why don't you tell me
Whats your particular favorite ho?
Well I like sexual chocolate hoes
Milky hoes, goya hoes, pork fried rice hoes
Red light special hoes
And my favorite? Mmmm triple H
Love a black sheep ho cause she's down to swing
Goya hoes are fly but they wear anything
Triple H is silky but it seems to me
That a milky ho believes she's invented - (poonani)
Similak hoes bring an instant erection
And them red light special hoes hold the fly complexion
Sexual chocolate hoes are like a game of bridge
And pork fried hoes, don't even speak the language
All in all I love them when the time is right
Only ho I hate is ho a la strobelight
Then again I know when it's late at night
I never say never cause I know I just might
Certain kind of heads that my dip can't see
Baby Chris, Pause, Red Tip and Big Ali
Afrikaa, Lawnge and soon a kid named Chi
How do my hoes look? (Just call me choosy)
Honeys hear that word and they say van damn
Not to cause offense even though I know I am
Take it in stride, you survived the Son of Sam
It's a Black Sheep thing who gives a fuck if you don't understand
The song "Hoes We Knows" by Black Sheep is a humorous take on the male perspective of interactions with women, specifically hoes. Dres, one of the members of Black Sheep, begins the song by acknowledging his familiarity with hoes and how it prompts people to question him. The rest of the song is composed of Dres detailing his encounters with various hoes that he comes across in his daily life, using clever wordplay and rhymes to paint a vivid narrative. He describes meeting a woman named Molly, who has a boyfriend named Polly, and encountering a man who asks for a quarter before being dismissed by Dres. He also mentions his favorite types of hoes, such as "sexual chocolate hoes" and "red light special hoes," and his dislike for hoes under the strobe lights.
However, the song goes beyond just a lighthearted portrayal of interactions with women. It touches on themes of objectification and disrespect towards women, as the term "ho" is used throughout the song to refer to women. The lyrics are often explicit and degrading, presenting women as mere objects to be used for the pleasure of men. It's worth noting that the song was released in 1991, a time when hip-hop was heavily influenced by male domination and misogyny. While the song can be entertaining in its wordplay, it's important to recognize the harmful messages it promotes.
Line by Line Meaning
Let me put you down, up on a riddle
I'm about to tell you a confusing story about a girl I met
I'm the type of brother that is swinging with a fiddle
I'm a ladies' man, and I like to keep things interesting
Out to get a lot because I never like a little
I have high expectations when it comes to women
Which is why I ban a dip that claims she's in the middle
I'm not interested in a woman who is indecisive or playing the field
Met a honey riding on the trolly
I met a woman on a train
Looking kinda Dolby said that I could call her Molly
She looked good and gave me her number
Said she had a lover that went by the name of Polly
She mentioned that she has a boyfriend named Polly
As she kicked it, I thought that I should dolly
I thought about pursuing her anyways
She said Polly want a cracker but the dip is not desired
Even though she's taken, she's not happy with her relationship
Cracker got a honey though she's about to be fired
Her boyfriend is in trouble and might lose his job
He wants to get Anna better yet he wants to bone her
Polly is interested in another woman named Anna
Anna's got a man though and I don't think he would loan her
Anna is taken and probably wouldn't cheat on her boyfriend with Polly
I said honey honey I said it slow
I flirted with her
Coming is my stop and I really have to go
I had to get off the train
Not to cut you short or to interrupt your flow but uh
Sorry to stop you, but
Whats up with the mojo?
What's your situation when it comes to sex?
She gave a big grin, I knew that she was with it
She smiled and I knew she was interested in having sex
We stepped off and we Niked (huh?) We just did it
We found a place to hook up and had sex
Boots were kind of fly yeah I like the way they fitted
I liked her style and fashion sense
Honey was the woman and to her I did admit it
I confessed my attraction to her
Lathered up the nuts and I changed my shoes
I cleaned up and put on fresh clothes
Took off the browns and put on the blues
I changed from brown shoes to blue shoes
Sweetie I'm the paper called the Daily News
I'm a ladies' man and my exploits are like headlines
And today's headline reads: here you can't snooze
I'm very active when it comes to sex
After she was dressed we both broke out
After we had sex we left
Said she had to go and see a brother with clout
She had somewhere to go
She said I'm hungry, hungry no doubt
She was hungry
Uh lemme get a hot dog with extra sauerkraut
She ordered food
She stepped to the left I stepped hard to the right
We went separate ways
"Can you spare a quarter?" Yo black go fly a kite
Someone asked me for money and I refused
Gave a little bark but he wouldn't dare bite
He tried to intimidate me, but didn't follow through
For that would be the end of his night
I was ready to fight if necessary
Walk the city streets wonder who I'll see
I walked around and wondered who I might run into
There goes Mistah Lawnge and my man Peewee
I spotted my friends
Look upon their faces coincides with glee
I was happy to see them
What's up Dres yo what's up P
We greeted each other
What's up with the skins said I just got deep
I just had sex
Did it cost a lot, naw the boost were cheap
It didn't cost me much to hook up
Costed me some time and a little bit of sleep
It took up some time and energy
A fresh jimmy hat and some kosher meat
I used protection and had good sex
Guess I got their goose to their toes they rose
I succeeded in getting women interested in me
My man Peewee broke out but Lawnge stood in a pose
One friend left, but the other stayed
Lookin at some kids going by in afros
We saw some kids with afros
Then pulled out a book entitled "Hoes I Knows"
Lawnge had a book about the women he's hooked up with
Being that a brother such as yourself knows so many hoes
Since you know a lot of women
Why don't you tell me what's your particular favorite ho?
What type of woman do you like the most?
Well I like sexual chocolate hoes
I like black women
Milky hoes, goya hoes, pork fried rice hoes
I also like other types of women
Red light special hoes
I like prostitutes
And my favorite? Mmmm triple H
My favorite woman is someone who is hot, horny, and hip
Love a black sheep ho cause she's down to swing
I like women who are open to experimenting sexually
Goya hoes are fly but they wear anything
I like Puerto Rican women, but their style isn't always great
Triple H is silky but it seems to me
My favorite type of woman is smooth and sexy
That a milky ho believes she's invented - (poonani)
White women think they invented sex
Similak hoes bring an instant erection
Young mothers who formula-feed their babies turn me on
And them red light special hoes hold the fly complexion
Prostitutes with light skin are attractive
Sexual chocolate hoes are like a game of bridge
Black women are like a fun game
And pork fried hoes, don't even speak the language
I can't communicate with Asian women
All in all I love them when the time is right
I like women when it's convenient for me
Only ho I hate is ho a la strobelight
I don't like women who are only attractive under strobe lights
Then again I know when it's late at night
I'm horny and will take what I can get
I never say never cause I know I just might
I try to keep an open mind
Certain kind of heads that my dip can't see
There are some women who don't like me
Baby Chris, Pause, Red Tip and Big Ali
These are some of the women who don't like me
Afrikaa, Lawnge and soon a kid named Chi
These are my friends
How do my hoes look? (Just call me choosy)
I'm picky when it comes to women
Honeys hear that word and they say van damn
Women think I'm arrogant for being picky
Not to cause offense even though I know I am
I don't mean to offend, but I know I can be rude
Take it in stride, you survived the Son of Sam
Don't take it personally
It's a Black Sheep thing who gives a fuck if you don't understand
Our lifestyle is unique and we don't care if you don't get it
