The One With the Music Memories (and a Secret Guest!)

Yo, fam! Grab your headphones and settle in because we’re diving headfirst into the rhythm of life, where music isn’t just a background vibe—it’s the heartbeat of our stories! This time around, we’re vibing on those precious first moments when music swept us off our feet and turned our worlds upside down. From reminiscing about that one jam that made us feel alive to sharing hilarious tales of growing up with tunes that shaped our lives, we’re all about those big vibes and good feels. Plus, I’m spilling some juicy tea about our very first guest, who’s bound to bring the heat and shake things up! So, kick back, relax, and let’s make these five minutes count, because we’re about to drop some serious musical magic!

Get ready to dive deep into the world of sound and beats, my friends! This episode is like a musical rollercoaster, taking us on a wild ride through the highs and lows of our personal relationships with music. Our host, Kamba, is back and ready to spill the beans on what happens when life gets a little too hectic. You know how it goes—work deadlines piling up like laundry and days blending together like a bad smoothie. But fear not! Kamba's here to remind us why we love music in the first place. From nostalgia-inducing stories about first crushes and school dances to the unexpected turns that our musical journeys take, the episode is jam-packed with anecdotes that'll have you feeling all the feels.

As we vibe along, we hear from listeners sharing their own musical origins, like Precious, who surprises us all with her love for the unique sounds of brackets and Terry G. It’s wild to see how diverse our musical backgrounds are—some of us were jamming to Celine Dion while others were tearing up the dance floor to party music. And let’s not forget about Raquel, who claims she was vibing to hip-hop at age four. Honestly, I’m still recovering from that revelation! It’s clear that music is more than just sound; it's a lifeline, a connection, and a shared experience that binds us all together. So, grab your headphones and prepare for a deeply relatable chat that’ll have you reminiscing about your own musical firsts.

Sorry, sorry.

Speaker A:

I literally forgot that we've done that already.

Speaker A:

So.

Speaker A:

So let's just get right to it.

Speaker A:

So last time I shared the story of how I first fell in love with music.

Speaker A:

That Milo story.

Speaker A:

Remember first year of high school.

Speaker A:

Literally the first year of high school, and then I heard a sound that changed my life.

Speaker A:

Yes, that story.

Speaker A:

And if you haven't heard it, just listen back to the previous episode.

Speaker A:

And honestly, reading your comments and hearing your voice notes made me remember why I started this in the first place.

Speaker A:

And like I promised, I'll be reacting to some.

Speaker A:

And here's one now.

Speaker C:

I barely listen to any podcast because I feel so bad, but that has to be the best five minutes of my life too, because I can remember straight 600 songs that made me love music.

Speaker C:

The kind of music I listen to as a girl.

Speaker C:

You never believe that a girl listens.

Speaker A:

That kind of so.

Speaker C:

But that's who Precious is.

Speaker A:

But Wakumzi.

Speaker C:

Let's go back to brackets.

Speaker C:

Let's go back to Terry G. I'm gonna stop here.

Speaker C:

Goodbye.

Speaker A:

Such a lovely message here.

Speaker A:

Really glad you enjoyed that episode.

Speaker A:

So Precious said she grew up on brackets and Terry G. That's wild.

Speaker A:

Don't get me wrong, you don't hear a lot of ladies saying that was their jam back in the day.

Speaker A:

Most were on Celine Dion, Westlife, Beyonce, but brackets.

Speaker A:

D, that's a whole different vibe.

Speaker A:

I mean, that's bell ringing, dance floor, scattering music.

Speaker A:

Precious, you know what?

Speaker A:

Tell me the truth.

Speaker A:

You were outside.

Speaker A:

I am sure of it.

Speaker A:

And I love it.

Speaker A:

I mean, that's what music is about.

Speaker A:

No rules, just vibes.

Speaker A:

So here's another one.

Speaker D:

Hi, my name is Raquel.

Speaker D:

So I can't really, like, actively remember when I had my first music experience, because for me, I would say I was born into music.

Speaker D:

My mom really loves music.

Speaker D:

Growing up, I don't think there was any day that would pass by without me not hearing music.

Speaker D:

And I remember, like, far back, even as when I was as young as, like, say, three, four years old.

Speaker D:

When I go to my grandma's house, my uncle had a barbin saloon, and every evening they would play songs.

Speaker D:

You know, songs like, you're always on time.

Speaker D:

You know what I'm saying?

Speaker D:

Go shoddy, it's your birthday.

Speaker D:

Like, songs like that.

Speaker D:

So music has always been there.

Speaker D:

And I just grew up with his country.

Speaker D:

Celine Dion, Dolly Parton, Whitney Houston, different rages, even hip hop.

Speaker D:

So, yeah.

Speaker A:

Wait, so, Raquel, you're telling me at age four, you were out there vibing to Ja Rule and 50 cents like it was nothing?

Speaker B:

What?

Speaker A:

Meanwhile, at four, I was somewhere crying because my balloon flew away.

Speaker A:

Not out here popping bottles at kiddies parties.

Speaker A:

Like, how were you already lived that superstar life.

Speaker A:

Raquel, come on, you have to give me some tea now.

Speaker A:

Tell me.

Speaker A:

Wow, y'.

Speaker A:

All.

Speaker A:

Y' all amaze me.

Speaker A:

Literally.

Speaker A:

Now, before I share some few stories, I've got a little announcement to make.

Speaker A:

Speaker A:

So our very first guest is coming on the show, and I'm not spaying who just yet, but trust me, this one is going to set the tone for everything that comes next.

Speaker E:

Hi, Combo.

Speaker E:

I've been listening to a lot of music when I've been young, you know, growing up, listening to the Bob Marleys, listening to Fela, because my dad used to listen to all those music.

Speaker E:

My aunt introduced me to reggae.

Speaker E:

ith music has to be J. Cole's:

Speaker E:

Particular song was January 28th.

Speaker E:

That song made me exploring music more, making me no music no more.
