MONSTER JAMS that will but shouldn't be forgetten What songs do you feel that because of the times changing will be forgotten that were monster jams of the day? I was thinking of a few myself. I was a lil kid during the New Jack Swing Era so most of the songs I think come from that era. These are songs I WISH I could hear
1) New Jack Swing - Wrecks N Effect 2) Him or Me - Today 3) Kissing Game - Hi 5 4) Live and Learn - Joe Public 5) Don't Be Afraid - Aaron Hall 6) Do fries go with that shake? - George Clinton (most younger people only know about Atomic Dog) 7)Thigh Ride -Tawanda?(I can be corrected on this she was the lead singer of Mtume) 8) Rewind the tape? - Mico-wave (again true funk folks correct if I am wrong 9) Space Cowboy - The Junson Crew [Edited 9/5/06 14:59pm] | |

"Thigh Ride" is by Tawatha(Agee) not Tawanda...close enough though....yes she was the vocalist for Mtume...still LOVE that song!!! I am not African. Africa is in me, but I cannot return.
I am not taína. Taíno is in me, but there is no way back. I am not european. Europe lives in me, but I have no home there. I am new. History made me. My first language was spanglish. And I am | |

I used to see that video. I've forgotten why it would have been banned. I believe that it was aired a couple of times on Yo! MTV Raps, but MTV pulled it because it made references to the O.J. Simpson trial that was going on at that time. It showed some anonymous blonde at the front door of her house, and the video later showed her lifeless body on the ground. It was sort of ironic that they claimed that it was about O.J. Simpson when the song itself was featured on the soundtrack for the movie of the same name. Actually, one of the songs I was going to list here was "Just Kickin' It" by Xscape. This was huge back in the day, bit I'm afraid it will be forgotten because Xscape was never as big as En Vogue or TLC.   | |
