Fun Boy

Fun Boy is an EP by Minnesota alternative hip hop group Oddjobs.

It was self-released by the band in 2002 as a limited-edition Japan-only release, but was widely bootlegged, giving it an underground listenership in the U.S.[1] The band unofficially circulated the Fun Boy EP around the time of the 2000 release of Absorbing Playtime.

Band member Stephen "Anatomy" Lewis told the French website Hiphopcore that the Japanese release was meant as something of a joke and that Oddjobs doesn't know what Japanese listeners actually thought of the album.

"[3] Stanton Swihart of AllMusic criticized Fun Boy as shallow and slapdash, but nevertheless called it "a buoyant, whimsical listen.

It has a loose, even sloppy, energy, and plays at times like a slapdash party mix or a messy, spirited live show.
