I can't be the only one into 80s pop

[Digital Omen]

I was born in 77

When I was in elementary and middle school, my older cousins were blasting bangers like



Even 3 Stacks couldn't deny this one. He referenced it in Wheelz of Steel:




All time classic, ask Ri Ri:






Miami's national anthem:













So many 80s pop bangers. The Video Music Box documentary talked about how a lot of these became hood classics, never mind the cac faces.

There are 8 billion people on earth

I promise you brother. You're not the only anything

 

[Ziploc]

That era was something else as far as music. So much different styles competing for ears and sales. Your musical palate had to evolve because of it.

the last couple years i got back into some 80s music myself. It was a good cross section sound.

 

[old pig]

this is part of what I grew up listening to before hip hop really started to come into play for me

 

[Remote]

I can feel it…coming in the air tonight.

Oh lord.

And I've been waiting for this moment… for all my life.

Oh lord.


Imagine 20 year old Mike Tyson in the locker room listening to that…moments before knocking out Trevor Berbick.

Powerful stuff brehs.

Late 70’s - early 80’s yatch rock

 

[SNYC]

Yeah, same with me..

In NYC, there wasn't a full time HipHop station until '92. So most of the 'Urban' playlists would be R&B, Dance & Pop.

Subs, know very little of it but always hear it in stores like Target.

I grew up on 80s pop

70s and 90s too of course

ITS GOOD ROAD MUSIC.

 

[The Pledge]

I like the music from the movie Drive. Not sure what the name of that genre is, 80s pop? Synth pop?

The older I get, the more I admire that neon vice city type of aesthetic. Like breh said, it’s good road music

80s was apex of pop music IMO
It's telling when the top pop stars of today are biting the 80s in one form or another
The rise of the Music video made the 80s distinct from others
