GIVE ME THAT MONKEY...

Instead of hitching up a horse or tractor, one farmer harnessed his automobile to the plow in 1939. One man drove the sedan, keeping the car wheels on one side in the previous cut of the plow; his partner handled the plow. In that way they turned an acre of ground in less than three hours. The plow was attached to the rear bumper with a chain at the side toward the furrow being turned.

In 1997, The Fugees released the single “Rumble in the Jungle” (featuring Busta Rhymes, A Tribe Called Quest & John Forté), which peaked at number three on the UK Singles Chart. They were also featured on the Bounty Killer single “Hip-Hopera”, that spent several weeks on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. That same year, the group disbanded so that the members could pursue solo careers.
