    I had the grand opportunity to be an American teenager, going off to University to study music in 1993. If the younger generation ever hears us complaining about today's music, just know THIS is what is in our DNA, in our bones. I'm so happy this was my era, but happy too that y'all youngins can experience it whenever you like also. Just like I' m sure older generations cannot describe how it felt to be alive during their teenaged years, it is difficult to explain the smoothed out all around cool vibe of the "Daisy age", in which this music was born.

    The complex, jazzy AF guitar chords, the looping, ambiguous interaction of the bass line and beats... this track is beyond magical. Tip is a MFing genius with the production. Then add Phife's impish charm to it all? These kids opened a portal to a parallel, better universe.

I am open to new shit and I really think music in and of itself is my roots. I play, I listen, I rock out, I chill out. The feelings though, are usually the same, thanks to music like this. It is simultaneously beautiful, real, dirty, sweet. It keeps me on a path. I believe it is a good one.
