You know, every one of them in those days was singing about their experience that they had in the ghettos.
And through the passage of time, things changed so much that the very music that was once despised, ridiculed, and the children who had managed not even to play it or go near it, they started encouraging their children to become a part of that music.
Now, bear in mind, we sang from our experience, whether it be hardship,
gang warfare, political warfare, political tribalism, police brutality, you know, man on woman drama,
We sing from our reality and we make that into something that other people can identify with.
Because for some strange reason, we might share the same experience, but we never talk about it until someone sings about it.
Then we can openly say, yeah, because someone identified the elephant in the room.
So come now full circle.
Everyone sings about their experience, but somehow we have lost a piece.
of what this really is.
Where did it really come from?
You know, I grew up in an industry where there was always the king of dance, which was Yellow Man.
And it was the people who said he was the king, voted for him.
And I didn't hear anyone say Yellow Man lose his crown.
Because the man that keep the foundation, he might not even know a Yellow Man song to date.
Many people might not even aware of an artist by the name of Yellow Man who made such a great impact on the dancer community to bring it international before the ranking.
So after Yellow Man as our first international dancer superstar, we had Shabba Ranks who followed in their footsteps to take the music further.
What's my guy off?
Flex.
Turn to that motherfucker.
