10 YEARS AGO...
Back in the day when i wore platforms and ridiculously skimpy looking outfits hoping i would pass for an 18 year old. I hoped i blended in with the other girls who were a cup or two sizes bigger. But when the DJ dropped that familiar tune, somehow we all moved and grinded as though we were in some hip hop booty like video.
Unafraid and slightly more daring back then, it was common to sing along to Keith Sweat - Twisted. With alcohol in one hand and the other arm wrapped behind the neck of a male friend, my alter ego seemed to have been unleashed.
Explicit moves came almost second nature, it was like a scene from Dirty Dancing all over again. You could see it everywhere, the kind of clubs that play the hottest RnB tunes that get the girls rubbing up against each other. It was common to see boys of all races lip-syncing and walking like they just got a hip replacement.
FAST FORWARD TO NOW...
Rarely will you see me hoochin' myself up and exchanging drunken smiles with the odd stranger whilst bopping to one of the Top 40 songs. In fact, nowadays with work taking over in the driver's seat, my priorities have shifted slightly. But I do occasionally look to my selection of Bombay Gin, Whiskey and Malibu for comfort.
But if anything i've found much comfort in vegging in front of the t.v and watching whatever i please. And the other day i was watching MTV and one of Akon's video's came on. Watching the video and looking at the title, i was certain there must be some censorship going on. But i did manage to find the song with the actual lyrics.
But in my head i have it on REPEAT and YES you "see me winding and grinding up on that pole..."
