Junior year in high school. I got my license, discovered marijuana, finally had sex, and spent the summer working at a sandwich shop/skateshop on Hampton Beach. Freedom and mobility, disposable income, a bit of reefer and a beach full of eye candy. Everything was fresh and new and exciting. Anything was possible. And 1993 was the year I truly had my mind opened:
Souls of Mischief - 93 Till Infinity
A Tribe Called Quest - Electric Relaxation
De La Soul - Breakadawn
Dr. Dre ft. Snoop Doggy Dogg - Nuthin But a G Thing (I know this dropped in '92, but I grew up in NH AND I didn't have cable, so cut me some slack)
