Line 1: {{~~trope~~creator}} [[Fun Lovin' Criminals]] are a band from New York City, and proud of it. They play a fusion of alternative hip hop with rock, pop, jazz, blues and Latin influences. The band's members are Hugh "Huey" Morgan, Brian "Fast" Leiser and Mark "Frank" Reid. Steve Borgovini is a former member. They have long been more popular in the United Kingdom than in the United States. Their singer, Huey, is an Anglophile who lives in the United Kingdom and has made many TV and radio appearances not connected to the band. Another of their current members, Frank, is English. Whilst they have not really had a hit since "Loco" in 2000, they have a loyal worldwide fanbase and Huey has kept in the public eye in the United Kingdom ever since. ~~----~~ {{creatortropes}} ~~Contains examples of the following tropes:~~ * [[Bruce Lee]]: Sampled in "My Style", which is why the song didn't appear on an album. * [[Cover Version]]: So many that they were able to release a covers album, ''Mimosa'', with some alternate versions as filler. There are also a few in their later career. Line 17: * [[First Installment Wins]]: Their first album, ''Come Find Yourself'', is by far considered their most popular album. * [[Germans Love David Hasselhoff]]: Their popularity in the United Kingdom and Europe greatly exceeds their popularity in the United States. * [[~~Gratuitious~~Gratuitous Spanish]]: ''Passive/Aggressive'' mentions "Mucho Grande" style. * [[Greatest Hits Album\|Greatest Hits Albums]]: ''Bag of Hits'', ''Scooby Snacks : The Collection'' and ''A's B's and Rarities''. * [[Lighter and Softer]]: A prominent feature of their early career was the Schmoove version. This involved recording a more mellow version of a song. ''Mimosa'' collects a number of these. Line 29: {{reflist}} [[Category:Fun Lovin Criminals]] [[Category:Musicians]] [[Category:Rappers]]
