This is Michael Mixerr. Today I will review Soulful Ernie - Street Talking that came out in 1982 & 1983 on Lyons Den out of San Diego, California. Soulful Ernie is the earliest example of San Diego Hip Hop/Rap. Party Rock was supposed to be a hit that Soulful Ernie would think that would make him as famous as Motown but instead only 200 copies of this single were pressed up! Soulful Ernie was young and in over his head at the time.
Street Talking is a San Diego classic. It is what people from San Diego refer to as neighborhood music. Think similar to The Green Eyes or Prhyme Suspect. Anyway… Soulful Ernie thought that Street Talking would make him as famous as Motown and he would have the ability to blow up big, but instead only 200 copies of this single were pressed up! Soulful Ernie was young and in over his head at the time as I had explained earlier.
Hard Times is dedicated to all the brothers and sisters who have been dealing with struggling through all the hard times in their life.
I rate this single, Street Talking, 5/5*****!!
