Super chill. Feels a bit ahead of its time for 1996. Nice thick bass holding down the low end. I digs.

I chuckled as he slickly dropped a Toni Braxton AND a separate Carl Thomas reference later on. Also, no shame about not playing defense during his career 😂

Freestyles were actually off the top, not prewrittens.

‘FUNKY 19’ for my real ones.

I post new tracks on SoundCloud every week. Working on a full length project. Making plans to present this stuff live in the funkiest way possible.

Speaking of DJ Quik, best producer + mc to do it in my opinion. If someone wants to say Q-Tip, I'll accept it as a valid opinion.... won't necessarily agree with it, but will accept it.

From Tonite to Just Like Compton to You’z a Gangxta to Quik’s Groove…there’s simply ZERO room for Quik slander.

A fun, kinda funky track. You have to wait a bit for the brass instruments to take the spotlight... I thought they might not ever arrive. I like the little whistle synth that takes the lead from time to time.

Yoooo, this album cover is too much. Is this like the proto version of Zapp's Computer Love? I think this track can be considered before its time musically and lyrically. "You're strung out on the grid". Phenomenal.

We were told that a friend's teenage child claimed that this track was a "banger" 🤣. I laugh, but I gotta admit it kinda is.

I've always been a sucker for some flute. This track abides on the intro. Overall, this track is smooth, a solid example of soulful 80s RnB with nice groove and strong vocals. Recommend bumping this while cruising through traffic.

If you enjoy what you hear, please support the artists with a sneaky purchase.

Damn, when that bass and drums kicks in on the one after the first couple guitar notes.... oooweee, how can I be expected to stand still. Strings, horns bring substance to the arrangement.
"I love you for what you are..."
That's how I feel about this song. So many quotable in this song to boot.

I loved the fire from point guard Pat. Pat might not be the best player in the world, but he ain't never been scared.

This track takes a little while to get moving, but the percussion rhythms make my head nod appropriately. Add some simple but effective synth work, a nice guitar riff or two, a consistent bass line and this track turns into groovy listening. Don't sleep on the "jungle" sounds, even a Tarzan sample.

Nice rock steady feeling track. Feels a little rough around some of the edges, but that gives it a more natural feeling. Life is not perfect, and maybe music recordings don't need to be either. Nice warm guitar solo too, can't be mad.

How can you not love the name of this band? Interesting track with multiple distinct movements. Easy to listen to.
