![]() Prior to Hammer's next album, ( The Funky Headhunter), rumors from critics and fans began claiming Hammer had quit the music/entertainment business and had suffered a financial downfall (since a couple of years had passed in between the two records), which Hammer denied at the time. Despite the album's multi-platinum certification, the sales were one-third of Please Hammer, Don't Hurt 'Em. The song proved to be successful in the U.S., peaking at the Top 10 of the Billboard Hot 100, at No. Other opening acts for the tour included Jodeci, and a young Mary J. As a result of this unfortunate experience, the song would help advance their success. While traveling the country, their tour manager Khalil Roundtree was murdered in Chicago, and the group's future performances of "It's So Hard to Say Goodbye to Yesterday" were dedicated to him. In 1992, Boyz II Men joined Hammer's high-profile 2 Legit 2 Quit tour as an opening act. Hammer set out on a tour for this album, but the stage show had become as lavish as his lifestyle loaded with singers, dancers and backup musicians, the supporting concert tour was too expensive for the album's sales to finance, and it was canceled partway through. His video for the song appeared after the movie. Another hit came soon after, with "Addams Groove" (which appeared on both The Addams Family motion picture soundtrack and the vinyl and cassette versions of 2 Legit 2 Quit), which reached No. ![]() Sales were strong (over five million copies) with the title track being the biggest hit. Rano is used in Sindhi folk to juxtapose Lord with beloved.After dropping the "M.C." from his stage name, Hammer released this album (also produced by Felton Pilate), answering his critics within certain songs from the album. This is the translation of the folk song. Momal then jumped into the pier of fire for her beloved and Rano on hearing that followed suit. ![]() Momal begged for his forgiveness and wander the streets as a destitute in her longing, but Rano never returned. This put off Rano, and the relationship went south, hence forth. One night, Rano snuck into the room of Momal to find her scheming sister in the bed. ![]() Rano would have none of that and continued a long distance relationship. Rano was released with the condition that he discontinues pursuing Momal, as the king himself was interested in pursuing the lady. Rano stealthily continued the affair, but was caught by the king and jailed. Their love grew from there, but the evil king Hameer forbade his prince Rano from courting her. Well, Rano Mendhro braved all perils to reach the court of Momal and ask for her hand. Momal’s chief schemer was Natir while the riddler was Soma. These friends chose to pursue Momal and her enchanting beauty. The sisters with their elaborate schemes and craftiness, kept prospective suitors away. The prince said that Momal live in Umerkot with her seven sisters. The king of Amarkot ( later day Umarkot), Hameer Soomro, along with his ministers, Rano Mahendra, Seenharro Dhamachanni and Daunro Batyanni, used to go for hunting in the far flung areas of Amarkot.ĭuring their hunt, they came across a prince from a Himalayan kingdom, who had been robbed of his riches in his pursuit of a beautiful local princess, Momal. There are many versions of the folk story in the market but this is the closest to the original one I could get: The setting is rural Sindh and its folk love story of Rano the prince and Momal the enchanting beauty.
