Origin of "brother from another mother"?
I understand the concept behind it, but I'm wondering if there was some kind of significant pop culture use of this term that brought it into common usage.

1. googling can provide so much entertainment
everything from a musical reference to urbandictionary.com

A term used to describe a good friend that you have known almost your whole life. The word "brother" is used because the friend is extremely close to you to the point that he is almost like your brother--but from a different mother. And that rhymes. And you know that rhymes. Admit it!
