As a young man, Damien Lee Benoit named himself and his computer 337 Screw; 337 being his area code in Louisiana and his middle name upside down, "screw" being the slowed-down style of DJing popular in the American South. He and his friends took the name and laid down comedy tracks, which he mixed with urban and hip-hop beats.
After Damien established work in the USAF, he built a mixing studio and met rappers KDuBB, from Virginia, and Cee, from New Jersey. He renamed himself Sketta Lee and created solo albums for the three of them, as well as an album for the three of them together, under the revived band name 337 Screw. Sketta Lee now has a second album out, Getting What I Want, and KDuBB's second album is slated for the future. Check out their full range of work, and info on the earlier 337 Screw tracks, at www.337studios.com, and read the Unlikely interview with Sketta Lee by Avalon Frost.

We present three tracks from Sketta Lee and 337 Screw. "What They Want" is a dynamic, anarchistic celebration of paranoia and self-assurance. "Can't Be Chopped" is a classic, rebellious hip-hop anthem, and "Keep Studying Freestyle" is a particularly funky study of, er, mostly it's a study of funkiness. Enjoy. —JP
