The Detroit Blue Pigs were a group of rapping Detroit policemen who went around to schools talking about fighting crime and being safe.  I found their 45 today called “Fight The Crime”, so I thought I’d post it right away.  With all the negative publicity they’ve been getting lately they deserve some props.  My wife went to Pontiac Central high school and she remembers when they came to her elementary school and the kids went crazy.  She got a big kick out of the song and I hope you do to. 

I have a good friend who regularly hangs out with some Detroit police, and I’ve got nothing against them.  I also know someone who is a former Detroit cop, and he had some interesting stories to tell.  You guys have a crazy hard job, day in and day out, so MUCH RESPECT DETROIT POLICE!  I’d like to see you cut another track to follow up this one.
