He had a sick slow jam on that album called "1/4 2 9".
Especially at the beginning, with the drums, the hot bassline, and the bells.
I remember hearing this at an NBA pregame shoot around. Players were jamming off of this.
The remix of this is still hitting.
Man, I wonder who came up with the idea of those bells; those sound like church bells. Crazy outta the box ideas can really work somtimes.
One of my favorite groups. The precursor to Kid Creole and the Coconuts.
Queen Latifah did an excellent cover of "Hard Times" on her first (singing) album, The Dana Owens Album. Don't want to derail the thread, but look it up and listen to it.
Nice. Kinda gives off Floetry vibes.
This song brought up some emotional memories. I was in a situation where I couldn't go home just yet...I'll leave it at that. When I was finally able to go home, I turned on the radio, and this song came on. Let's just say that there was something in my eye the entire trip back home.
Haven't heard this in a long time. Gave off Chic vibes.
Along those lines, Howard Jones as well.
Sorry to post so much here, but these were my formative years when I related many songs to what I was going through my life at the time. I still do that now, but not as much (the 70s, 80s, 90s, and early '00s just hit differently).
Corey said "I wear my sunglasses at night
So I can, so I can
Watch you weave, then breathe your story lines
And I wear my sunglasses at night
So I can, so I can
Keep track of the visions in my eyes"

Yeah, you're right, it sounds like he was on that 80s Coke...
This ks definitely nerdy. He's usually lnown for dirty raps
I pocked this song because theres a longer version of this video where de la soul are high school kids in a lunch line and trugouy is being bullied and mushed in the head for his spot in the line. The song is about being easy and not aggro(aggressive) and that sentiment wasn't wasnt popularity during hat era in hip hop although people got love for de la soul.
