Gift of Gab is the lead MC for hip hop group Blackalicious (along with Chief Xcel), and a member of Quannum Projects (along with Chief Xcel, DJ Shadow, Lyrics Born and Lateef the Truth Speaker).
Gift of Gab is also a film which was released in 1934 by Universal Pictures. Edmund Lowe stars as a man with the Gift of Gab - he can sell anyone anything. The film costars Ruth Etting and Gloria Stuart, and featured Boris Karloff and Béla Lugosi.
Ruth Etting sings "Talking to Myself" and "Tomorrow, Who Cares?"
Originally the Three Stooges were signed to appear in the film, but at the last minute three look-a-like actors replaced them.
It was long thought to be a lost film, with no copies in existence, but a copy was found recently. Template:Film-stub
