We in our 40s remember before digitisation, social media & mobiles. We carried Walkmans for music & watched movies on VHS. We rode BMX & were uncontactable if out, till we returned at sunset Globalist technocrats made their move one generation too early Fatal mistake. #RESIST

I had a Sony Walkman with which to play my HipHop mixtapes.

Here’s an Old Skool UK Hip Hop Mix I made for those with iTunes.

Roots Manuva - Brand New Second Hand (1999) “Juggle Tings Proper” lyrics describing our time now.

Because we knew what time it is.

So I rode my BMX Mongoose Supergoose outdoors, everyday all day.

Price wise, the Supergoose was on the high end for a BMX back then, with its chrome finish, wide sports steering bar, low 100% chromo frame, high seat, chrome spokes, sports breaks & chain and grip tires. It was my pride and joy.

We must not forget the spokey dokeys.

Nor leave out the Trick Nuts.

I still carry the scars from BMX falls today.

They are the taste of freedom.

The VHS was for the video star.

But nothing will beat the radio star.
