So, I have had this song on my blog and no one has said anything. It makes me laugh when I hear it for a couple of reasons: 1. My friend Dana who loves to call me her Supersonic friend and I always try to sing it to her 2. It reminds me of high school riding in my '75 Toyota Corrolla singing that horrible song laughing with my best friends! One day one of our boyfriends got so sick of us singing it for a couple years that he threw it out the window while we were driving.
JJ Fad Bio
Group formed in: 1988 (disbanded in 1992) / Members: M.C.J.B. (Juana Burns) Baby-D (Dania Birks) Sassy C (Michelle Franklin) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- A reminder of how fleeting hip-hop glory can be, female L.A. rappers M.C.J.B. , Baby-D and Sassy C formed Just Jammin' Fresh and Def (J.J. Fad) in 1988. They were part of Hurby "Love Bug" Azor's empire alongside Salt 'N Pepa. The female equivalent of Kriss Koss, the trio featured a youthful, heavily pop-oriented brand of rap that was non-threatening. "Supersonic", produced by The Arabian Prince, was a Top 30 pop and R&B hit, and the album went gold, peaking at 49. Soon after it dropped off the charts, they were a memory.
I just assumed everyone knew who they were and that Supersonic was one of the best songs ever made. Doyee.
ReplyDeleteYo, yo, yo Super Sara! My kids still think your blog is the coolest place on the web. If the "new" tunes weren't enough, you also have their fav books, too. Not to mention all the cute (per Lins) and fun (per I) friends. Supersonic ROCKS! But everyone that's anyone already knew that!
