"A DIE HARD FREESTYLE FAN"

J. A. freakin' freestyle | Chicago, Il. | 01/12/2005

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Hello everyone! I grew up with freestyle along with the electonic/dance pop/industrial O' the day genres of music; but freestyle music held a profound, deep corner in my heart. I think it was it's unique sound and pensive lyrics that attracted it to me. Most of the songs dealt with wanting to party your ass off or when both sexes were tryin' to get their love lives staightened out. A characteristic of a freestyle song was that it made you feel emotion and that each song had that uniqueness(I'm talking about the earlier better freestyle/club songs that are showcased on these compilations).

I just turned 32 y/o last Dec. 2004, so let's do the math; that I would've been around 14-15 y/o, when freestyle music was gaining attention(now don't you guys laugh). By the peak of freestyle('round 1991), I was a senior in highschool- 17 y/o,

freestyle was standing on it's last limbs and so be very fortunate that you've stumbled upon a collection of the greatest freestyle dance classics; 'cause after 1992 freestyle officially died! I mean their was freesyle still but just not as good. The times were changing, people's tastes were changing- even with dance music or any type of music for that matter. I could go on & on about this; so I strongly recommend this-plus TOMMYBOY RECORDS took alot of time to put this together. I just noticed a volume #'s 9 and 10 which I plan on purchasing even though I have the majority of these songs in some shape/form or another(c.d. and/or vinyl). O.K. folks, I'm gonna leave you with my top 10 list of freestyle songs(from my personal top 100 list which I'll print out somewhere at a later date). I want to thank all freestyle writers/producers and artists for the impact you left on me and when listen to these songs I'm still moved and motivated to pursue my singing- again THANKS!

peace- Love, JULIUS-ALLAN
