[shopthatwrecks]

[ThrobbingHood]

This is why OutKast are so legendary… their tastes are so eclectic. I remember Andre talking about how influential The Ramones were on his music.

 

[xCivicx]

The thing I loved about Big Boi’s breakdown of the video is that it reminded me of my childhood. Mom and Pops was definitely put you on to the soul music. My mom was a huge Gap Band and Teddy P fan. Pops loved The O’Jays. You always had that eclectic family member that put you on to that other stuff. Mine was my sister. She loved Lionel Ritchie, but she was big on Fleetwood Mac, George Michael, Madonna, etc. I also watched a lot of those video that used to come on TBS and all that. Black folks are a lot more eclectic than people think.

[KingTxo]

Running up that hill is a non hip hop GOAT tier song to me

 

[Deoji]

She did the original This Woman's Work too iirc

Yep. And "I Can't Make You Love Me". Tank re-did that joint a few years ago I think.

 

[Tetris v2.0]

Kate Bush is finally getting her flowers, must be nice for her to blow up with a whole new generation, probably some fat royalty checks coming in the mail now too

 

[SupaVillain]

Running Up That Hill is one of like 5 songs I always play on new headphones, speakers, etc to get a sense of the audio quality. The way those drums hit will tell you whether your shyt is right or not.

That and bohemian rhapsody
