Yo bros, I just heard an awesome song on the radio but unfortunately the station's website doesn't display what they've played, and I couldn't make out a single word. Structurally it was a fairly standard late 70's/80's poppy funky/R&B song, with three main parts: a really awesome keyboard/synth part that sounds like something from Megaman X or Sonic, a more standard deedle-deedle keyboard part with a loud bass funk line and really high-pitched and distorted vocals, and a chorus that sounds like a person distorted to sound like a robotic frog saying "Ribbit. Ribbit." Or maybe he was saying "Maggot. Maggot." The chorus was a two-syllable word repeated twice quickly with a short pause, regardless. Could have been "Maybe. Maybe." or "Penis. Penis." for all I could have told.
 
R&B/funk stuffs. Previous to the song they played Michael Jackson, Earth Wind & Fire, Cameo, etc.

EDIT: They call themselves an "old school station". I'd give their name, but it would tell you where I live and I couldn't do that.
 
Have you Googled "Penis. Penis." to find it? 🙂

Hmm, after those bands, all that's left is Parliament, Rick James, and The Ohio Players.
 
Did Rick James or The Ohio Players ever have an electronics-heavy period? I should emphasize that the keyboards and voicebox and distortion and everything was really really dominant. Uber 80's-cheese. The lyrics were literally incomprehensible because of it.

Thanks for the guesses so far.
 
this thread delivers a conclusion

unlike the mystery clown elmo thread or the "what PC game is this" thread
