#92 SLOW-MOWED SINGLES: Take It Easy


I have found that some of the most enjoyable music slowed down as much as a slightly altered Numark direct drive can play is old ragga singles from the boom bap era. And with reggaeton somehow becoming something that four Puerto Rican dudes listen to in an aging Lexus sedan to ALL OVER EVERYWHERE, I figure it's only a matter of time before somebody starts screwing and chopping up the reggaeton, since that shit's way too fast for like south Texas or north Georgia or central Carolina Mexicans to get into like they'd really want to get into it. "Take It Easy" is a great song, and I love me some Mad Lion, probably one of the last minor members of Boogie Down Productions I enjoyed greatly. However, after tormenting my wife with Tony Touch reggae tapes pretty much continuously on road trips for about a year, I am not allowed to fully indulge myself like I'd want on matters like Mad Lion.
