This is remeniscin' of the days gone by
This song evokes memories of a bygone era, when hip-hop was still new and fresh, and the crowds were filled with energy and excitement

When the brothers were fresh, and the ladies were fly
Back in the day, both men and women brought their best - coolest clothes, wildest hair-styles to the dance floor to show their love for the music

Dancefloors were packed, and cold bottles were cracked
Everyone was drinking and partying hard, enjoying the music and each other's company in a crowded club

Dj's dropped the needle for the crowd to react
The DJ was the hero of the night who controlled the energy and the vibe of the room by picking and playing tracks that got the crowd going

To a funky type of tempo that the wax rotate
The type of music that got the best reaction - had people in the club moving non-stop and reacting to each new tune — was unmistakably funky and well-timed

Fresh rhymes are served up on a 12 inch plate
The rhymes delivered by the MCs were new, creative, and full of energy, just like the 12 inch records where they were pressed.

For the nation to see, the live science to be
The music was for everyone to enjoy and experience, and the live performances were an incredible exhibition of passion, artistry, and skills

Definition of soul on the M-I-see
The music played in these clubs and gatherings were the very definition of soul; it touched people's hearts and connected them through rhythm and blues.

Interlect is displayed, when the vocals are laid
The music was not just about fun and games, but also about displaying an impressive level of intelligence and profound messages through the lyrics

Timin' is a factor when dissisions are made
Everything - from the timing of the beats to the content of the lyrics - had to be carefully thought out and executed so that it hit the audience the right way
