Blame It On The Rain: The Menendez Brothers + an interview with Milli Vanilli's Fab Morvan & Grammy-Winning Producer Damon Elliott!

The Outlier Podcast

Join us as we sit down with Fab Morvan of Milli Vanilli and Grammy-Winning Producer Damon Elliott to discuss their groundbreaking collaboration on the reimagined hit "Blame It on the Rain," now the theme song for Netflix's Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story. Learn how this iconic track is back at #1 and what it means to both artists. Plus, Damon Elliott (son of Dionne Warwick) grew up on North Elm drive a few doors down from the Menendez Brothers...

"I actually knew them [the Menendez brothers]. I lived at 806 North Elm growing up, which is only a block away. And they were 722. I was a tennis player, and you can fact check that, ha. I actually was friends with Erik. But we didn't go to the same school, I went to Hawthorne on Rexford, in Beverly Hills, but they went to private school. My older brother knew Lyle. And they knew my mom [Dionne Warwick]; they used to, actually, they both have been to my house, ate our cookies. I'm not joking. So the whole complete circle of this is just serendipitous. Here we are, right, I linked up with Fab [Morvan, Milli Vanilli], and I just happened to watch "Monsters". And I heard Blame It On The Rain. And I had already covered the song prior, about almost a year, maybe seven, eight months prior to "Monsters"... even before we even knew about "Monsters". I'm literally just pinching myself, because I'm like, wait a minute, the Menendez Brothers "Monsters" put this song back on the map, 30-something years later. I get to talk to Fab and work with him, and do a reggae version, which I've had a lot of success in that island reggae market," - Damon Elliott on The Menendez Brothers and "Blame it on the Rain"
