fresh since '77



Let me tell you where this post is coming from...Last week a friend and I wnet to Richmond to see Matt and Kim in concert. It was my birthday gift and a welcomed break from the my day-to-day life.  The concert was beast! As you may have guessed, the band consists of two people -- MATT AND KIM!  The only two instruments they play are the drums and the keyboard...nice! Anyways, they played a lot of old school jams like ODB "Shimmy shimmy ya" and Biz Markie "Just a Friend."  Okay - so here is the kicker...I looked over at my friend and she wasn't singing any of the lyrics to the Biz Markie song. Who doesn't know those lyrics? I know you are singing them right now.  This made me think about all of the music that I may know that others don't know.  So I decided to drop a couple of nuggets on you guys - get your pencils ready:

Biz Markie - Just a Friend
A Tribe Called Quest - I Left My Wallet in El Segundo
Roots - Silent Treatment
Beastie Boys - Paul Revere
Wu-Tang - C.R.E.A.M.
Tribe Called Quest- Bonita Applebaum (updated on the advice of my bro!)
Kanye West - Good Life

Put those in your Ipod and play 'em!
