A question to posters who were "young" in the late 70's

[chequita guevara]

It's important to remember, though. Disco was funk for white folks. Let's have some of the real stuff now.

George Clinton - Atomic Dog


Bootsy Collins and His Rubber Band - Bootzilla


and how about a little

Wild Cherry - Play the Funky Music

[ramseya]

Or in Sloww's case, take him back to his late 1920's youth!

Nas' "Bridging the Gap"



Nas' "Can't Forget About You"

[ramseya]

AAHZ:

your music is awful. C-Murder is garbage.

[ZEE]

i think this thread is going to give me nightmares. god forbid i get one of these deathtraps stuck in my head.

[ramseya]

AAHZ seems like the typical stupid white kid who listens to rap out of his suburban angst and cause punk rock is passe. Listen to some good rap for once. Something that pays tribute to the last 80 years of black music and puts itself as the latest incarnation of the same spirit behind Duke Ellington, Billie Holiday, Sam Cooke, Chuck Berry, and, more recently, Marvin Gaye, Stevie Wonder, and Prince.

Damnit man! Couldn't you have put something up that would be more relate-able to these old timers like the new "Everybody" song by Andre3000, Kanye West, and Bentley Farnsworth:


or maybe Outkast's Hey Ya?

Shake it like a Polaroid!

How about some Nelly?


Now why don't you take off all your clothes!


And a grammar lesson

[ramseya]

Nelly is garbage. Awful lyricist (though not as bad as Missy Elliot).

Chegitz, surely you can see the difference in quality between a Nelly and a Nas?

[chequita guevara]

Nelly is fun. Nas is art.

[Wittlich]

I liked Disco - always have, always will.

Time to Get Busy

[ramseya]

This is art, even though it was made by two platinum-selling artists (Common & Will.I.Am) for the soundtrack of a movie, "Freedom Writers"... popular art, there's a thought:

"A Dream" by Common & Will.I.Am



Chegitz, please don't offer up Nelly as the best that rap has to offer.

[chequita guevara]

LOL!

nice troll, but you are trying a bit too hard to raise your postcount

[BlackCat]

Yeah, great times :

KC & The Sunshine Band - That's the way I like it (1974)


HOT CHOCOLATE YOU SEXY THING


Donna Summer - Love To Love You Baby(1975)


Surely hope AAHZ survives
