Felt, Vol. 2: A Tribute to Lisa Bonet
Encyclopedia
Felt, Vol 2: A Tribute to Lisa Bonet is the second tribute album from Murs and Slug
, the two members of rap group Felt. This time the dedication is to former The Cosby Show
and A Different World star Lisa Bonet
. This album was spawned from a tour bus argument about whether Slug or Murs had a better chance of getting with Lisa Bonet
(much in the same vein as the duo's first
collaboration, in which case the subject was Christina Ricci
).
