    "comment": "The group was named Divine Force, and it was comprised of rappers Sir Ibu, female MC Ice-T (aka Lady Nefertiti), her brother Supreme, and DJ Jizer (short for “energizer”). They were managed by a young entrepreneur named Melquan who owned an independent label called Yamakka (pronounced ya-make-uh) Records, a title formed by a word contraction that meant “you-make-a-record.” In 1987, Divine Force released a 12″ single called “Holy War (Live)” on the A-side, and “Something Different” on the B-side. It was engineered by legendary Universal Zulu Nation DJ Jazzy Jay (T La Rock, LL Cool J) and Ezee A. The single was produced and arranged by Divine Force with interpolations of Rufus Thomas’ 1972 hit “Do The Funky Penguin” accompanied with the drum pattern from Melvin Bliss’ “Synthetic Substitution.”",
