RE: Music Challenge, Day One: A Song from My Chilhood
Day 01- A song from your childhood: Grandmaster Flash, Melle Mel and the Furious Five, The Message. I remember hearing this for the first time from a friend's older brother's boombox, and being mesmerized. I stopped shooting baskets in our game of 'horse' and just sat down and listened.
That is such an excellent song. I hear so much bad rap now, but that absolutely had it. Rap, but also so funky.
You didn't realize how much you would relate to some of these lyrics later in life.
Ah, St. Louis. "It's like a jungle sometimes... except when it's like the tundra."
