I was up watching HBO late one night when I was like 15/16 and I saw this episode and out of all the poems from Brave New Voices that night, this is the one I’ve been attached to since. And TO THIS DAY it’s still one of my favorite poems 🔥 Every time I find it again I watch it 🤧
i was born in 1996...and i may not be able to relate to some of it...but i will say the 4 years that i can barely remeber are better than the last 5 i've had.........
Omg can't stop listening to this. I was having the worst possible day. I listened to this and I'm just smiling hard and verge of tears from laughter. Completely and 100% my childhood.
Im only 11, but i love Pokemon and Yugioh, i love Mario. Mystery meat creeps me out and that last line gave me chills. I wanna go curl up on a couch and watch DBZ right now
We watched this in my language arts class today to start off the semester with a bang. I swear I caught em' all once again with a huge Kamehameha from my Bowser with my Genesis plugged into the TV screen running around beating levels in under ten minutes while the fate of the world was in my hands until bedtime. Ah, the nostalgia.
'93 baby! And I can relate I miss playin sonic and mortal combat with my older cuzens and the rugrats was my shit ahhh good times too bad there gone but I try to keep my kid side
Zion Cosby Yeah, we caught the very end of the Toonami days. My Saturday morning shows were Naruto and Code Lyoko, Billy & Mandy, Fosters’ Home, etc. Pokémon was still airing, yet Digimon and Bakugan characters were all the rage
Ah, I miss being a kid in the 90's... Now I'm stuck slaving between working a convenience store and college. I could totally relive those days playing sonic the hedgehog and watching cartoons on saturday mornings...
Segaaaaa!! I love this piece of artistry. Spoken word doesn't have to be all stormy night and hopeless cries. It can also be this... A joyful reminder of what life was when it was worry free. I love it... '87
this poem is strait up amazig its tru to the core and makes you relize that you cant REALLY relate to business and work when that all you have strait tens, all the way
damn the 90's was something else everything back then wwas seriously epic when I was a kid and this poem brought back all those great memories! cartoons back then were the shit especially Thundercats and Rugrats
I have a similar piece like this, that I wrote, but it's more suited for Trinidadian background, which is where I'm from. This piece was amazing, is amazing. Allyuh rel bad fellas, allyuh bitter. Much love!!!
im not even from the 90s but it sounds way better than now. Now we have to worry about making it home for our tv shows. My Mom says that they had to make it home before the street lights. Time is so different not
I'm a 95 kid and I' still in love with everything these guys said in the poem. 95 for life!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! now that its 2011 i'm pissed that these cartoons and old child ways aren't the same.
this was awesome it reminded me of being a kid. Cuz everything spoken in this poem was my childhood. From the candy to the video games to the founding out why your best friend skin tone is not the same as yours. I caught every word! Great job.
DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOPE! love it i wanna see these guys live one day! LOOOOOOOVE IT! i live in England and have watched nearly all those shows too! woopwoop '94
2023 and I still love this
After three years of listening to this I still get chills.
Update: 5 years ❤️
I'm glad I accidentally watched this that night
