What song reminds you the most of your childhood?
|
What was the first physical record you remember buying?
I had Usher’s "U Remind Me" on cassette - I was a kid, and someone bought it for me at my request. And then I had Lil Bow Wow’s first album, I had that on CD. Ah, I’m trippin’! I also had Brandy’s Never Say Never, before Bow Wow.
What song reminds you the most of home?
I’m from New York, so it would probably have to be a Nas record. Maybe “If I Ruled the World.”
What song reminds you of traveling to a specific place?
My family are from Barbados, and every time I think about Barbados I think of this Alison Hinds song called “Faluma.”
What is the best song to play at a house party?
It depends on the type of house party! If it’s like a dinner party, there’s a song by The Gap Band called “I’m in Love”. If it’s a cookout, Frankie Beverly and Maze, “Before I Let Go”. If it’s just like, we in here turnt, I feel like that Sexyy Red song, that “Skee-Yee”, that’s going to turn that shit out.
What song would you like played at your funeral?
I don’t really know if I want a funeral, to be honest. My dad passed away last year, and his funeral was in a church so we only got to pick one song that was some shit that made sense to him. We played this song by Keni Burke, “Rising to the Top”. So, I don’t think I would have a funeral, but I feel like that’s a good funeral song.
You're abducted by aliens and when you wake up on the spaceship, they pass you the aux. What is the song that you're playing to convince them not to destroy Earth?I’m a big Frankie Beverley and Maze fan, so it’s going to one from them. They have this one song “We Are One” which would work, but there’s another song “Happy Feelin’s,” it’ll be either one of them. |
