Yo, soon as I saw the thread title, that's the first thought I had

My man's sisters used to come up from NC during the summers and they put me on to the song Lose Control

LOL.

"last night we had an argument. you told me you love meeeeeeee"

I remember one of the 1st times I heard it on the radio that summer. it was nighttime too.

I felt like I just had a sassy argument culminating into one of those hot n spicy love scenes from the movies.

that song always gives me that feeling to this day. and it also takes me back to that very night, listening to power 99 & Q102 on my little radio.

that's what music is all about . TAKING US BACK. SPECIFIC MEMORIES. this song is one of the goats in my book.

@JustCKing still duckin

please come tell us how the 1996 Olympics spawned the atlana music scene, along with whatever other ducktales you want to school us with.:popcorn:


1) You're misquoting a statement I made in another thread. I never said the 1996 Olympics spawned the Atlanta music scene. I said that the 1996 Olympics did more to make Atlanta an entertainment mecca more so than La Face records in response to reply that you made.

2) You're trying to use Silk to disprove a claim that I made. This goes to show that once again, you don't know what you're talking about. When Silk came out, Atlanta wasn't an entertainment mecca. The city wasn't hosting awards shows, the city wasn't raking in billions of dollars from the film industry, the only major events that were being hosted here at the time was the World Series because the Braves going nearly every year until finally winning one in '95. My point was after the '96 Olympics, people were coming to the A from all over the world because the world got to see that Hollywood wasn't the only place where dreams could be fulfilled in America. The '96 Olympics was the beginning of Atlanta becoming the Black Hollywood that it is now.

3) Everybody knows that Atlanta has always had talent, but it was much harder for talent to be heard on a national or even international level. We had talent Jermaine Dupri, Dallas Austin, Organized Noize, Silk, Jagged Edge, 112, Usher, TLC, Monica, OutKast, and Goodie Mob, but it was nowhere near the explosion of Atlanta artists who started to flood the market by the '00's.

I'm not misquoting anything. youre repeating the same chit.

like I said, Atlanta was the place to be since the early '90s. long before the f*ckin Olympics and the world series. LOL. you still don't get it. I'm talking about the black music scene. yes it continued to grow since then of course, but it was already POPPIN. youre just taking note of the early '00s(really mid-00s youre referring to) because that's when they started shoving it down the general public's throats but it was nothing new.

youre mentioning local Georgia acts but that's really not even the half. that's not the gist of it at all. whats funny is that you mention TLC. do you realize they were put together? left eye isn't from down there. shes from philly. she went to ATL to get a deal, along with a bunch of other people that aren't from anywhere near there. why would she randomly go to Atlanta to get a deal? hell, new York is closer.

and how about mc hammer reppin Atlanta like a 2nd home back when he was the biggest thing in music. where you think bobby n whitney were residing? theyre not from down there. lol. I could go on for days.

I would give you credit for responding but I basically had to bully you for weeks to stop duckin. now you still have a couple other threads to show face in. IT AINT OVER.
