“You ain’t nobody until you do what you want!” “Don’t you understand, your brain is clay and I gotta squeeze it!” While very few would turn to Arthur Fonzarelli (from classic ‘70s sitcom Happy Days for those painfully behind on their pop culture knowledge) for their rap inspiration, it turns out the man was actually a fountain of motivation, as California crew The Freshmen reveal on their last single, you guessed it, The Fonz. Making it’s worldwide premiere right here, right now, Fonz continues The Freshmen’s longstanding streak of genre-defying behavior (see Imagine, Dreamin’ California, etc.). Behind the board group member Kristo provides a bouncing, rock infused anthem, also putting in work on the mic alongside A. Wolf and Carlos Olivero, who stops in to deliver a smoothly unwinding bridge. If you’re looking for music that doesn’t sound like anything else out there, any maybe the occasional Amelia Earhart reference, look no further than The Fonz. Enjoy this bit of dopely updated nostalgia, but with no full-length project in site I’ll have no choice but to tell Albert to turn out the lights…for now.

This song first appeared on the Independent Chart on May 2, 2011

It's getting to the point where i just flat out love everything that The Freshmen put out. Their definitely on a road of consistency right now. Especially coming off of "Imagine".

This is a great example of a light hearted hip-pop track that doesn't venture toward corny. Production is creative, and refreshing. I'm about to go find out what else these guys have to offer. So far I'm liking what I hear. Great job guys!

Mad catchy. The song's pop leanings make this a crossover single ready to smash.

This is a great track. The hook is insanely catchy and they have a great balance between a light hearted tune and a well done, quality track. They are able to be catchy, yet do not sacrifice substance. Awesome. These dudes are great!
