…thinkin about back in the day.

Last night me and Sara Bell bullshitted till 7 in the morning, talking about all the old cartoons we used to watch/ music we used to listen to/ etc….

It was great. I actually remember having a walkman that my dad gave me, It was the coolest thing ever because I would just have this one cassette that i would just stick in the radio and press record and I was all set. I actually also remember having Will Smith’s Big Willie Style on cassette, it was the greatest thing in the world! I remember when I was so pissed at Uriel for messing that cassette up and pulling that tape stuff out… I hit him and my mom caught me. She whooped my ass.

I think the funniest part of our entire 5 hour conversation was when we would talk about songs we used to listen to and had no idea what the hell they were talking about. For example, Pony, by Ginuwine. I had no idea what that song was about. I was just a little kid, I was completely oblivious to the fact that it was talking about some dirty shit. I just knew it had a bad ass beat and I could sing that entire song word for word and not know what the hell it was about. “Why is he talking about horses? wtf?”

And almost every song I hear from back in the day reminds me of a time when I was younger hearing that song. Like I remember going to my dad’s work with him in the morning and that song would come on in the car and I would turn it up. I know my old man have to had known what that song was about, he probably knew that I was completely ignorant of what the song was actually about. It’s just funny that I actually could recite this song to you but if you ask me what it’s about….. uh, a pony?

+++++

We were just talking about the stuff we grew up on, laughing in hysteria due to the lack of sleep…. It was awesome…. All we needed was an infinite supply of candy, Kazaam style!
