So back in my sophomore year at USC my friend commissioned me to help him create a booty shaking dance party mix. My search for booty anthems led me to the genres of Funk and Disco and everything in my life changed forever. That day i walked to class listening to what i dubbed Funk Mix 2004. Without even realizing i began strutting along campus, shit , i even made it to class...and stayed! Sure i was indulging in the lyrical genius that is Rick James' Give It To Me Baby the entire time, but staying for all of class, thats a feat. So i took this to my friends apartment and it became the official impromptu dance party mix of the semester. Just add wine.
