Funny story.
My mom loved foreign music since she was in high school.
In her early 20th, she met R&B music. The artist that caught her soul was the infamous "Earth Wind and Fire".
She told me that she would listen to their music while I was in her stomach. Well, that explains why the first music genre I got into was R&B :)
In the 90's, Hip Hop and Rap music took over the world by craze.
Of course my mom was interested and bought some CDs.
With in the CDs she bought, Coolio's was there.
Therefore, I got introduced to rap music with one of rap music's epic track of all time, "Gangsta's Paradise".
I didn't understand what the hell he was saying, I was 9 years old Japanese kid.
But I loved it, and I still love this song.
I even remember taking this to my English class in London (I lived there for 3.5 years from the age of 9-13) as an assignment to introduce the songs to the class.
My teacher was surprised as hell because this Japanese kid who just came from Japan started playing this hardcore gangsta rap LOL
But yea, I know many of you know this song but take a minute to listen to it.
Take yourself back to the 90's. The music industry need to bring real artist who can produce master records like this for real.....
