Let's get a little diversity ....


What was the old school scene like back in the day around your way? (I'm talking about all of the different cities/states/countries out there)


What were the jams? what did you wear? how did you talk? who were the local artist? etc., etc.......


Holla at me.

I thought He said Back in the day? Bones-thug????? They don't go back that far..

He's talkin about bustin the cap on the hydrent and takin a can to make it rain and gettin your wet thing on....The block parties where everybody from the buildings around you came out and hung out. WHen Grand Mater Flash did the message and everybody related to the song.

When you could get a nickel bag in the little brown envelop for 5 bucks..when stevie wonder did master blaster..Man those where when the times where good..

Yo Medley, what was it like when BTIH first came out? Did you guys rock it at parties? Did you ever get to see them swing live?


By the way, back in the day means back in "your" day. Keep on ol' schoolin'!

down here in miami florida...
i remember as early as TLA rock Its Yours on my brothers huge box. he had the tape player where the tape flipped over without taking out the tape. 2 live crew came out with revelation (11111...2222222...you dont stop) pumping converse low, high top, and decks... wearing creased courderoys and silk shirts... skating rinks were hotter than the clubs at the time... that was before luke opened strawberries (see me so horny video on youtube) the dj scene was hot out on the parks during the summer...funny how i can remember all of this at the age of 8/9 and cant find my car keys 20 mins ago...

Medley-It was the same way in L.A. with guys like Egyptian Lover, L.a. Dream Team, Tha' Wreckin' Crew (Dr. Dre and them),etc...


Tango-We had a bumpin' skating rink scene, too. Who can forget Flippers Roller-Boogie Palace, World On Wheels, Washington & Arlington, and Rosecrans...


We also had 1580 KDAY, the worlds first ALL HIP-HOP station..They used to have these live mix shows on Friday and Saturday nights from World On Wheels, In fact, that's how most of the L.A. sound came from...Speaking of roller-rink artist's, I can't leave out JJFadd(supersonic!)


Man, those were the days!!!
