When you need some soul in your life, all you need to do is ask Chef Ed Jenkins. I met Ed in Brooklyn, NY at a small private high school called Berkeley Carroll. Long before scientologist Issaac Hayes became "Chef" on South Park, Ed was cooking up more than just food for the kids. Just like Lou Reed, Ed is a true 'soul man'. I interviewed Ed in 1999 and although his whereabouts are unknown, his words resonate even today. (Audio coming soon...)
The Recipe for Soul:
All you need is 2 tablespoons of funk,
1/2 a cup of soul,
Put your feet on a rock,
Pat it and don't ya dare stop,
Just about as groovy as a 5 cent ruby,
Yall get down
It's interesting that one of the ingredients for soul is 1/2 cup of soul. I find that fascinating.
*Note: Ed not pictured above

The Droog Report is off to a funk fresh start. Keep your hipbone connected to your legbone and don't let nobody tell you what you got ain't your own.
