    It's a bop for sure, but what makes that song a "freestyle" bop?

    I know what Bee-Bop is. Never cogitated about the meaning of Bop.
    Best guitar player I ever saw in concert.

    Stevie B's greatest hit ... (because he had so many, and yes, they all sound alike - don't make me bring Timmy T up in here...) :

    Freestyle music! It's a genre that originated in the 1980s, characterized by its unique blend of electronic beats, catchy melodies, and emotive vocals. Here are some key aspects of the freestyle genre:

    1. *Sound*: Freestyle music combines elements of disco, funk, soul, and electronic music, featuring prominent use of synthesizers, drum machines, and keyboards.
    2. *Vocals*: Freestyle vocals are often soulful, emotive, and heartfelt, frequently focusing on themes of love, relationships, and heartbreak.
    3. *Origins*: Freestyle emerged in the early 1980s, primarily among Hispanic and Latino communities in urban areas like New York City, Miami, and Los Angeles.
    4. *Artists*: Notable freestyle artists include Exposé, TKA, Brenda K. Starr, George LaMond, and Stevie B.
    5. *Subgenres*: Freestyle branched out into subgenres like:
    - *Latin Freestyle*: Incorporating Spanish lyrics and rhythms.
    - *Miami Bass*: Focusing on heavy, bass-driven beats.
    - *New York Freestyle*: Characterized by faster tempos and more energetic melodies.
    6. *Influence*: Freestyle has influenced subsequent genres like house, techno, and EDM, with its emphasis on electronic production and catchy hooks.
    7. *Legacy*: Freestyle remains a beloved genre, with many artists still producing and performing freestyle music today.

    Freestyle music is a unique and captivating genre that has left an indelible mark on the music landscape!

    CSB...when I was working at Camelot Music at Baybrook mall, back when music stores were a thing, Stevie B came into our store one day. Cool guy. Down to earth. Very unassuming.

    Freestyle is my wife's category. Hard pass.

    hard pass? You don’t bump music with bass in the whip? What is your musical genre of choice ? Something with ukulele in it?
