Periodically, we need to check folks grownhead credentials. I mean we gotta be sure you’re really down and not some spy, a poser, an undercover gangster (reformed gangsters are fine). Soooooo, you truly are a grownhead IF….
1)…you remember when 3-way calling was the height of advanced technology
2)…you thought college was going to be like School Daze or Different World
3)…you remember when black folks knew a lot of rock songs
4)…you remember when George Michael got play on black radio
5)… you always thought of Martin Luther King Jr. and Malcolm X as being old, but now that you’re creeping up around the age when they got assassinated, you realize ‘Daaaaammn, they were kinda young when they died.’
6)…you remember when Whitney Houston was oh, so wholesome and sweet
7)…you remember patiently waiting for your favorite song to come on the radio so you could hurry up and hit record — bonus points if you wrote the song names on the tape’s label.
