    Having some lo-fi fun over The Midnight Eez's 'Childhood Memories' tune. My ode to a city that was on the other side of the world. It's completely different to the one I lived in, but was just as influential. The Bronx - the birthplace of hip hop.

    Lyrics:

    (chorus)
    From the other side of the world, how can a city affect me so?
    With the sound to bless the soul
    I heard they jammed in the park 'til it was dark
    There were guns and drugs, but the music touched my heart
    Much respect to the BX

    (verse one)
    When I was young, I heard a song, I just stood there hypnotized
    How did he use, a record and move, to sound like that I was mystified
    Can someone tell me what the hell this is?
    And where did it come from? Then someone said…

    (chorus)

    (verse two)
    So now I know,the B-R-the O, the N-X invented this thing
    Dj Kool Herc, put in the work, as well as many to assist him
    So much time & love was invested
    In Cedar & sedgwewick. Cos you know...
