Age ~ never gonna waste it
Time ~ never gonna chase it

Tracy Chapman’s “Fast Car” is more than a folk hit ~ it’s a timeless anthem that’s crossed folk, hip hop, and country with equal emotional weight. A raw, honest song about longing and escape, still resonating decades later.
Eric B. & Rakim’s “Paid in Full” changed the game. Rakim’s laid-back but complex flow redefined what it meant to be an MC, while Eric B’s raw, minimalist beats made room for a new kind of lyrical depth. A foundational track that still echoes through hip-hop today.
Brian Wilson was more than the sound of summer — he was a genius who painted with harmony and reshaped pop music forever. This week’s Throwback Thursday honors his life and legacy through the two songs he said defined him: “God Only Knows” and “Good Vibrations.”
