My two cents:
As a leitmotif Karen Yong partners Pearls Before Swine. Used thematically JVC Force is the doublet for Rep. Bobby Rush (D-Ill.), chairman of the House Subcommittee on Commerce, Trade and Consumer Protection addressing Hip-Hop lyrics


+ JVC Force Bio per Andy Kellman at allmusic:

Long Island's JVC Force, a rap group whose name stands for "Justified by Virtue of Creativity for All Reasons Concerning Entertainment" (that would actually make them "J.V.C. Farce," but whatever) was a trio consisting of DJ Curt Cazal and MCs AJ Rok and MC B-Luv. Signed to B-Boy, the group broke out with an underground hit single in the form of "Strong Island." The song would become the group's signature moment, and though a few successive tracks came close to rivaling the song's greatness, the group was never able to top it. The group left two albums in its wake, 1988's Doin' Damage and 1990's Force Field.
