Do you remember the at-first-hilarious-then quickly-annoying internet phenomenon known as the Dancing Banana? Well, I do. This turn-of-the-millennium meme is just what it sounds like: a Banana dancing to a song called "Peanut Butter and Jelly Time." The song was written by a group called Buckwheat Boyz, who also had a hit called "Ice Cream and Cake" which is about, you guessed it: the right-wing media's attempt to revolutionize cross-media content. Just kidding. It's about ice cream and cake.
Here, in its original, typo-riddled, bright pink glory is the biography of Buckwheat Boyz from their MySpace page. I've corrected spelling/grammar errors and added little annotations where appropriate in black .
The Buckwheat Boyz, (no comma needed) are a musical experiment founded by two friends,(no comma needed) in 1997 from Tampa FL., (comma should be a colon) Marcus Bowens, (no comma needed) and Jermain Fuller. The Buckwheat Boyz (yes, the band's name is even misspelled) added two more members to the tandom. On Keyboards-J.J. O'Neal, and Drums-Dougy Williams. (fragment) The Buckwheat Boyz were signed by Koch Records, (no comma needed) and began recording their first (removed 'full length record,') and only full length record. The self titled record brought us the smash hit's (no apostrophe needed) "Peanut Butter and Jelly Time",(no comma needed) (although the song always presents the line "Peanut butter jelly time," the title includes a mystery "and") and "Ice Cream and Cake" (which played in a Baskin Robbins commercial according to Wikipedia). In 1999 the Buckwheat Boyz went on they're (their) first world tour. Opening for Lil' Romeo, (no comma needed) and Nas. (fragment) The band was signed by Koch for 3 records, though the unfortunate death of founding member and vocalist Jermain Fuller left the group in shambles. The Buckwheat Boyz eventually split up, (no comma needed) late in 2001. Never entering the studio for their second record. (fragment) After the split up of the band, Marcus the co-founder or Buckwheat Boyz found God, turning into one of Gumbo, Alabama's most respected gosspil (gospel) artists. Dougy Williams turned his pain inward, (no comma needed) and took it out upon himself. His lust for women and drugs grew threating (threatening) to his health, and on Nov. 14, 2003 was admitted to a shelter for drug offenders. J.J. O'Neal persued (pursued) his dream for music stardom, (no comma needed) and found his way on stage. J.J. is now headlining his local theater's rendition of "CATS".
My favorite part is the last sentence.
