Description:
First song I ever wrote. Too bad I did not go with Henry Stone and Produce it the way I want which was down tempo using a DMX drum machine.
Louis Martinez (AKA Lewis Martinee' the famous French producer) told me that rap would be dead by 1986 so decided it would be better with a "Latin Beat".
The song was released and shot up to #1 on Hot 105 (before I was working there) the first week. Universal served Pantera Records a Cease and Desist because of the name so they pulled it the second week.
You may hear a familiar music hook on the part that says "Your Rockin' to the beat in the magic city". It is the same line heard throughout Expose's "Season's Change". My song was written a year earlier. Lewis worked on both. Figure it out.
