my problem is the radio and MTV killed most of the big big hits of my childhood by playing them every 5 minutes. its sad because those are truly great songs, i just cant listen to them anymore. so i find the more obscure hits i grew up with. Freestyle music was actually my sister's jam while i was a huge metalhead digging Slayer , Metallica, Ozzy and Iron Maiden among other obscure metal bands. but i had to let her play her music sometimes. so we had an agreement. she plays her freestyle music all week whenever she wanted, but i got metal on Fridays. i didnt care because i had my boombox/walkman and played metal songs outside all the time, but Friday was my day so i cranked it up on our stereo.
so I'm a metalhead who grew up on NYC dance music.
the dance party is still going!
