Gutterfly was inspired by a blaxploitation film project that was conceived and only partially completed by Brooklyn native Baraka Feldman in the early 80's (who later moved to Portland and shared his ideas with the Lifesavas), in addition to blaxploitation films from the 70's, in particular Coonskin and the Zatoichi series of Japanese cult films. Gutterfly is a movie concept brought to life in the way Lifesavas do art best; through poetic lyricism and powerhouse beats. Lifesavas created characters - a trio of ghetto superheroes for the 00's - Bumpy Johnson (VURSATYL), Sleepy Floyd (JUMBO) and Jimmy Slimwater (DJ Rev SHINES) - through which they were able to leap into subjects they'd yet to cover in their music.[see full story for more] - Click here for the Full Story
