Living in Kansas, but originally from VIRGINIA. Definitely taking me back when I was youngin, jamming to this group, Chuck Brown, EU, etc. My Eaat Coast swag on full display. DC, Maryland, Virginia, Stand Up and show em how we do it!!!
Omg I just remembered what I miss in Dc wow back in the dayz I used to listen junkyard,backyard and rare essence,pure raw talent in gogo music we make beyonce to hit the billboard with crazy in love that was D.C. rite dere
I was in my teens and 20's listening to go go. I just forgot how much I loved it and started listening again. Problem is I'm a 41yo white guy.. Lol yeah I get some weird looks... Fuckit I love this shit
Man folks not given Jammin Jeff the credit he deserves on this pocket!!! Jeff is kicking the utter shit outta them drums!!! That's what makes the pocket air tight and gives smoke the platform to rock it on the congas!
ALWAYS THE MOST ORIGINAL MUSIC EVER GO GO . NEVER RESPECTED FOR THE PURE ART IT IS...BORN AND RAISED IN DC BEFORE GO GO MUSIC STARTED AND ALWAYS BEEN AMAZED AT THE LEVEL OF TALENT THAT WHEN UNRECOGNIZED IN THE DC AREA...I GREW UP WITH ALL THE ORIGINAL BANDS..I REMEMBER WHEN NORTHEAST GROOVERS FIRST GOT STARTED.. NOT ONLY WHEN THEY HIT THE SCENE, BUT I REMEMBER WHEN THE STARTED LOOKING FOR THAT LEAD VOICE.. MY MAN ROCKY D WAS ONE OF THE DUDES THEY WANTED TO HEAR FROM. ME AND ROCKY D WENT I FORGOT WHERE IT WAS SO LONG AGO /BUT IT WAS IN A BASEMENT AND ROCKY D KILLED IT ON THE RAP TIP!! THEY LOVED HIM..BUT ROCKY TURNED THE GIG DOWN BECAUSE MY GO GO FLOW WAS TRASH !!! I TRIED TO GET HIM TO TAKE THEM UP ON THEIR OFFER BUT HE REFUSED..I KNEW THEY HAD TALENT BACK THEN AND STILL TO THIS DAY!! KEEP THE MUSIC PUMPING.. I NEVER COULD RAP GO GO . ITS AN ART EVERYONE CAN DO.. BUT ON THE SCALE OF RAPPING YA BOY IS CRAZY.. AND WRITING R AND B SONGS UNTOUCHABLE!!! D.C SEE YOU SOON RHYTHM!!! RAP PHENOM!!!!
Lorenzo Bailey I remember first hearing DC gogo in the early eighties and fell in love with it... The grooves and the triplet swings got me hooked...All the way from London
This was when music was being played, an actual MUSICIAN, not some dude making millions who sounds like he just found out two things, 1 that word rhyme and 2 auto tune
Okay so this is like EU Da Butt. Makes sense. I didn't know that the sound originated in Maryland. Nice. I just learned that watching a video about Amerie. Love her!
Please don't let no one from DC here you say that it originated in Maryland. Dem are fighting words. Though it moved to Maryland it started in Wash DC with Church Brown and the Soul Searchers, then others came along like Rare Essence, Trouble Funk, Experience Unlimited, Redds and the Boyz, and others. But for sure it's a DC thing.
Phew!!! You lucky you didn't utter those words in D.C.Im from NY and I know such blasphemy would've gotten you killed.Or slapped up harder than Smoke was slappin' dem skinz.
It's like NASCAR. People that get it love while those who don't are confused why people love. It pulls a certain crowd. I lve because the sheer talent plus I grew up around it.
Go go never gets old. Loving it in 2020
57 yrs old and STILL blast the go go beats in my cars.
Right

I feel ya bruh... Real music is obsolete.
This joint never gets old. This will go down as one of Go-Go's all time classics.
I hope gogo music is preserved as a traditional part of DMV black American culture.
OUCH!! I just love the sound of the Congos

Only people that dont know gogo or Groovers.. Khari, Jammin Jeff, Stomp Dig dug.. shiiiiiiiii..
Where there is Smoke there is Fire!
That shit was bad ass. Reminds me of the PA tapes off the street in the early 80's.

Dc is the birth place of Go Go hands down.. smh
What’s so special about gogo. I don’t get it
It's like NASCAR. People that get it love while those who don't are confused why people love. It pulls a certain crowd. I lve because the sheer talent plus I grew up around it.
@@justasimplemanworkinghiswa1569 lol it’s sounds no different than people playing music on Beale Street here in Memphis TN
@@Thedeso18it's a underground culture. It's music but youngings use to bang hard to it. Violent days in the 90s
