LOVE & Afrika Bambataa & Soul Sonic Force

I don't know how many of ya'll know Afrika Bambataa & Soul Sonic Force from back in the day, but if you listen to the rhythm section of LOVE..."Awww, shake that thang, come on..." it sounds very similar to the rhythm-beat of 'Planet Rock".

Giving my age away here pimp , but "Planet Rock," according to my memory, was one of the 1st major songs that people started to Pop and Breakdance to.

I used to do my thang to it before Run-DMC's 'Sucker MC's' came out and fat laces were the thang.

Peace ya'll pimp2

Yes! And you know Prince has always been down... remember Mary Sharon leading the wedding party in the "Planet Rock" chant from behind the drum kit in UTCM?

He finds the weirdest ways to do his shout-outs sometimes...

booty!
