This is my entry for Beat Battle League Week #13. The theme for this week is "Childhood Memories".
The earliest I can remember is my obsession with Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles in the early '90s. My favorite turtle was, of course, Leonardo. He was the leader that lead his younger brothers, Raphael, Donatello, and Michelangelo. Leo was something I was able to relate to since I was the oldest of my siblings as well. I dabbled by sampling the soundtrack from the original 1990 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle movie, but the outcome was not ideal.
So I continued to the next childhood memory, which was Dragonball Z and Fresh Prince of Bel-Air. Of the two tv series, I chose the latter. After school I would religiously watch that show, then BET 's Rapcity immediately after to watch The Freestyle Booth.
Among the countless iconic scenes in Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, I narrowed down to Carlton's signature dance, particularly to Tom Jones' "It's Not Unusual".
For this challenge, I sampled "It's Not Unusual" from Tom Jones. Simply put, I chopped the sample to bits, rearranged it, then put drums on it. Enjoy!
