Love Them Hoe's

EPISODE 3 - LOVE THEM HOE’SThe course of young love never did run smooth. In 2003, the burgeoning romantic relationship between Eamon Doyle and Nicole Francine Aiello came to a sudden end, leaving the streets of Staten Island agog with grief and gossip for at least an hour. Less than a year later, whispers of this tragedy had found momentum back in Europe, stubbornly occupying the Top Of The Pop charts for weeks and weeks on end…Following their initial, unmistakeably British transmissions, John and Jack wade across the pond to investigate the 2004 call-and-response scandal of Eamon’s ‘F—k It (I Don’t Want You Back)’, as well as Frankie’s ‘F.U.R.B. (F—k U Right Back)’. An international phenomenon, collectively selling around 750,000 singles in the UK alone, yet never heard of again, this warring pair represent some true Detritus, sifted through on your behalf.What shocking conditions of cultural deprivation lead to this dark spell on pop music? Did Eamon shoot his musical load too soon and spoil the launch of his own ‘ho-wop’ concept? Did Frankee even know Eamon? Is there any conceivable way that one can transcend the label of hoe? Should farmers’ fields be renationalised and donated to sex workers? These are just some of the questions thrown up by this week’s subjects, and their double-barrelled blast of nihilism for eight-year-olds. Can we shock you?
