  5. Rock The House Vynil

    Word thats dope!! It crazy that there is still Rock the House records around, hopefully they're in good shape. I actually was digging through the crates a few weeks ago, when I found A Nightmare on My Street Single and Ring My Bell single records, which were only $8 total for both.

  9. How do "you" call this move ?

    I don't know about other countries, but "dabs" is what they call it in the US. Most teens and up greet each other with: "What Up?!" and a "dab". Similar to 30s and up: "Hows it going/How've you been" and a firm handshake.

    I don't know how its referred to in other countries tho, or it might even be called something else in other parts of the US. But universally I think people know what it is.

    "De La Soul are releasing their new music on April 28 as part of the NIKE+ campaign. The 45 minute long track, which will be released in partnership with Apple, was written specifically for runners, but can be enjoyed by active and sedentary music fans alike. Kevin "Posdnuous" Mercer says working on the tracks and wanting to get the pacing right motivated him to work out more. "I've dabbled in running before, but I got back in to it and would run to test it out," he says. "Nike also has a team of runners on staff who listen to it and give us their opinion." (Billboard)"

    "i think this thing has a chance" haha

    ive never heard that story about being in trouble with the police, 140 mph, thats crazy.

    Never listened to parents just don't understand before? haha

    "And this girl's hand was steadily moving up my thigh

    She had opened up three buttons on her shirt so far

    I guess that's why I didn't notice that police car

    We're doing ninety in my Mom's new Porsche..."

    Dope video! FP seemed like he would be the funnest/funniest person to hang out with.

  16. When Did You Fall In Love With Hip Hop?

    in Caught in the Middle

    Posted · Edited by bart5

    Growing up, I never really listened to music much. But as a kid, I remember riding around with my sisters listening to the hip hop they played in their cars. I enjoyed some of the songs, but never really got into it. I was a big Fresh Prince fan as a early teen, and I knew my cousin had a few Will Smith cds. He didn't really want them anymore cause he parents hated hip hop, so he gave me Willenium and Big Willie Style. I remember popping Willenium in and listening to Pump Me Up, and thinking how amazing Jeffs scratching was. I immediately became hooked (I was 15yrs old), and slowly bought all the JJFP albums. I started looking for music that related, checking out mix cds with JJFP tracks in them. Groups like Naughty by Nature and ATCQ caught my attention, and then I just started researching more and more. Listening to music was a daily routine after that. A year later, I was curious about how they made this music that I loved. Some how I heard about a computer program called FL Studio aka Fruity Loops, decided to try it out and I loved being able to create my own stuff. Never looked back since, music became my life, decided this is what I want to do with my life, and have been making beats for over 3yrs as well as learning to DJ and write rhymes.
