    KC Flight ....do you know how hard this joint knocked(the instrumental) in the late 80's?? Had to be there...


  • dude from kc flight, somehow decades ahead of the fashion trends.... black t with a grey suit jacket and jeans.

    somebody once told me " if your black and from chicago or detroit... and dont like house or techno... somethings wrong with you"

    in boston, its quite the opposite.

    Anybody have an mp3 of this version? The Sex For Days version, which coincidentally, is what I'll provide you with if you share the mp3 with me.

    Classic!

  • I grew up near boston, and hip house sounds corny to me. I clicked on this thread hoping that something here would change my mind, but it just confirmed my opinion. i feel like it is where a lot of good artists fell off. i will buy a 12" by an artist that made a classic, like mc shan, or jungle brothers, or queen latifah, and it will be a hip house track. i pull the needle off and put the record in the sell pile. actually, hit me on the pm if you want this type of stuff. i hate the hip house remixes on hip hop 12"s too.

    if you think i am wrong and hip house is great, well in a way it is making a come back. i would call much of the club rap of today hip house, because its mcs rapping over house-type tracks. we will see how long those tracks stay hot. even in the documentary, they are clear that its a commercial style.
