This is a collection of songs that my friends and I were all into during Junior High. If you'll notice, it was a sad state of affairs. That is what happens when one grows up in a town of about 1700 people. I was surrounded by Lynard Skynard, Metallica, AC/DC, and country, so I did all I could to avoid that (still do!). That is my attempt to justify this mix.

tracklist

1 Coolio : 1, 2, 3, 4 (Sumpin' New)
This was our 8th Grade Dance classic! We (along with everyone else in the world) had a special coreographed dance for this, and still to this day I remember the lyrics. "If you got beef then nigga eat a pork chop." What.

2 Limp Bizkit : Faith
You have no idea what a huge Limp Bizkit fan I used to be. I flew to Charlotte, NC just to watch one of their shows. This is my favorite song of theirs, because it was the song that introduced me to the band. Plus... George Michaels! Just one question, is this song MORE or LESS gay?

5 Will Smith : Men in Black
"-5 for Will Smith." I can see it now... For the love of Hasselhoff this guy was popular back in the day. So many tracks of this album would have been appropriate to put on here.

7 2 Pac : High 'Til I Die
I grew up in a small town of all white people, mind you--and I thought I was a gangsta for a while. Not really, but I did sag my pants. So sad...

10 Gravity Kills : Guilty
One of my really good friends and I were on a camping trip with his family, and we were listening to the boombox in the back of the minivan while we were driving to/from our camping location. I would sit with the volume control firmly in reach so that any time a cuss-word came on I could turn the volume down real quick to "bleep" it out. I'm pretty sure we were listening to this album at the time, trying to annoy his parents.

19 Collective Soul : The World I Know
The song we walked to for our 8th grade promotion. It was a close race between this and the theme song from Friends. A good song to end the mix, because it ended my time as a Junior Higher.

Will Smith was so wholesome. He could rap about aliens and partying like it's 1999 as opposed to bitches and hos and poppin' off a mofucker.

So friendly. I'd be his friend.

Goddammit, I was going to do a shitty nostalgia mix!
Definite kudos for some of these though... although I think I was raised on the non-explicit version of that Coolio song, because I remember that lyric being "if you got beef then... eat a pork chop!"
Also, wasn't that 'Hey Man, Nice Shot' song about someone else? And Eric, weren't you the one who originally told me that?
