Broke by Hed P.E.

Broke, the second album from Huntington Beach's Hed PE, came out on Jive on August 22, 2000, and it blew their self-styled G-punk, a collision of gangsta rap and punk rock, wide open, dragging in classic rock and world music along the way. M.C.U.D. barks, raps and croons up front, Chad Benekos and Wes Geer crank the guitars, Mawk rumbles on bass and BC The Mizak Diza hits the drums.
"Bartender" was the breakout, a woozy, heavy groove that made it to No. 23 on the Mainstream Rock chart and carried the album to No. 63 on the Billboard 200. With 450,000 copies sold worldwide, it remains the band's most successful record, and they spent the campaign on the road with big-name bands and playing major European festivals.
