Congrats! If you're here, you've reached the highest level of taste in music... To chicanos This music is more tha a jam it's a lifestyle that hits you deep down.
This feels like the real LA. I hate how people come here and think it’s all hipsters and Hollywood, when they don’t know THIS side of LA, the people that really grew up there and mixed the culture of all the people struggling to get through and bless their future generations
My dad, a 3rd generation Japanese American who grew up around East LA, raised me on good soul and Chicano oldies and I've been increasingly appreciating those classics the past few years. Malo- Suavecito, Rosie and the Originals- Angel Baby, etc. Now I'm now getting to share with him all this amazing neo-soul and chicano oldie style contemporary music, full circle. Feels good :)
This is soo cool!!! Thank you for the artwork ‘ ItsStephJM ‘ ! CBB Update: Now that you guys got a look at the new animation style you can see what’s in store for future episodes but they are going to have more crazy cartoon moments . (Things you’d seen in old cartoons like “Animaniacs”, “Looney Toons”, etc.) There are 2 separate cartoon episodes being worked on right now , but I will probably share a few screenshots of these episodes in the next few days. Hopefully next episode will be finished by next month! I will keep you guys posted! Much love and respect to you all and please be safe! 🤓🙏🏾❤️
This is the most heartwarming and relatable comment. I would think things very similar if I lost my pitbull... it’s the little things. Carry on man ! & im sure Tank is thinkin about going out and and hearing this damn song right now up in heaven 🌅
You can't go wrong with anyone of their songs. I love when you can listen to a cd from beginning to end without skipping a song. This group is amazing.
Cruizing. Was the moment. To hold your rucas hand she sitting in the middle. Carucha smelling like aqua net. Member ladies. Those were the cruising moments cant forget. Moments. Of. Just kucking back with la. Clica. Qvo. God. Bless you as you cruise
Real authentic beautiful women no video vixens, solid real actual homeboys from down the way, Real cars scratches and all. This vid is a beautiful representation of true Califas beauty enjoy pri.
I love how this band shows their love in this video to the real supporters of their music and not just ppl who like it cuz its trendy for a hot second! We're (raza) going to be bumping these jams for years. #oldies
I’ve never owned an old school, nor do I come from the culture but this song/video just made me wipe a lil tear of happiness out of my eye. You guys are the truth! The only modern day group (that I know of) that hold onto that super dope 60’s era Motown sound. Love you guys!
Listening from south korea. I felt goosbumps Every time i first listened to all of your songs. Even only listening to very beginning of melody makes me feel ecstatic. And when the voice comes out it becomes even more wonderful. I hope u get more famous so that u come to south korea soon. I really wanna hear your voice in the flesh. Please keep singing. i wanna listen to your music so long. Thank u for making those wonderful music.
Hey everywhere in this world there are people who can appreciate being smooth, cool and low. Kick that Homie style in S. Korea and be inspired and share the culture... might make a new scene where your at. Peace bro.
This is the best iconic music for all Chicana's & Chicano's to listen to while cruising...Love the oldies. So many memories of lowriding with friend's. Such an awesome era..❤️🎶💯
Thank you. Thank you for capturing our cultura, for making bomb ass music and not erasing our culture. Thank you for shining light on Chicano culture and it’s beauty, class and style.
I’m from the East Coast. Never been to LA. But I sware man every time I hear songs like this and see these vids I feel like I’m right there cursing with my ol’ lady. Much love and respect for this culture. Definitely appreciated.
That’s my hood. Grew up and live in beautiful East LA. I walk down 4 houses to Whittier Blvd or cruise on Saturday night. Your welcome to come and see so many people just party it up.
Much respect to you guys for acknowledging my people in this video 🙏🏽 this visual perfectly depicts what kind of music you make, that good ol cruisin’ music. Thank you !
This vatos are cool humble n interested in our culture met them in SD they came down and took pics n talked with every fan going to there show at the novo taking my so n daughter so they can appreciate real music can't wait low n slow baby....
Yes they are...I had tickets to go see them play but of course at this whole Corona thing it was canceled A group called the Alton's We're gonna open for them you should check them out also Joey Quiñones...
I am in my early 50s, 52, I remember crusing on Whittier Blvd in 1977 and seeing WAR hang out Low Rider style on the blvd. I never heard this song as a kid, This song takes me to that time, The song writer captured the true vibes. Wow Amazing.
Lyrics Let's go cruisin' to the park Cruisin' after dark Let's go out Slow it down to five On an endless drive Let's go out Baby, let's cruise together It's you next to me Maybe we'll cruise forever In pure ecstasy Someday you will go To streets we don't know For now, we'll just glide Enjoy the ride So let's go cruisin' to the park Cruisin' after dark Let's go out, baby Slow it down to five On an endless drive Let's go out Slow it down, where's the hurry? Float through these streets Bring the Sun, leave the worry Sail upon the breeze Someday you will go To streets we don't know But for now, we'll just glide Enjoy the ride So let's go cruisin' to the park (Yeah) Cruisin' after dark Let's go out (Oh, baby) Slow it down to five (Oh) On an endless drive Let's go out
What a dope video. The sound of this group along with this video just transported my mind to a heavenly place for a few moments. Thank you for blessing us with your music.
You have no idea how this caught me. God bless youtube or I may have never come across this.....to me the FIRST sign I've heard of old school vibe in new world artists!! Thank you!!
I really can’t believe this song was made in 2019! I heard this and immediately thought it was made in the 80s or 90s, it has has such a clean and vintage sound. Picture yourself in a coupe deville with your babe, just cruising around the city while this is playing. 🥺✨
Just for the record, this genre of music started in America cities like Cleveland, Detroit, NYC, Philadelphia and Atlanta...not Los Angeles. Shouts out to Mexican Americans for falling in love with black cultural music.
Im feelin dah way SCali rocks they world. I’m from East Side SJ and don’t claim any # any color just know I feel the SCali Vibe…much luv La Raza, East, South, North & West…
It makes me so happy that you got the chance to experience this side of LA most that visit miss out they get caught up on the trendy LA. and that you enjoyed it, when ever you're back your welcomed to my carne asada
Oldies are really forever! Love the fact that this group is hitting us with their great music. Got me cruising through Wilmas heart of the harbor area bumping this all night
I'll give it to them , there bringing back good ol school music since they started, from a goodies listener, I'm digging there vibes and charisma in every song I feel this new era rising.. "shout out to my wife who now has our kids loving Durand Jones the indications" ..😎👇
Now this is what music is supposed to sound like, love everything they put out, brings back those good memories of better times not this mess we’re living in now
I'm barely getting into this kinda music. I was dating a guy who is super into it. And now I can't stop listening. There's gonna be an event in August in LA that's about these old school jams
I'm here because a famous French Chanel model played this song on her turn table this morning. Damn! Where has this band been my whole life? Magic just happened! 😜💋💋
Love this song Listening in (September 2019 )just waiting on that one vato to go cruising for the rest of mi vida ❤️🙏☺️💕💕Donde andas !!! Donde estas. Lord I pray for that one godly man!!!! 💕💕💕
This is my favorite jam its give me the chills n a good feeling inside I can be having a bad day m I bump this song n I forget it all .....it just needs to be longer
My lady and I would go out cruisin' in Massachusetts in the winter when the forecast would call for snow "blowin' and driftin", we knew what they really meant. True love always!
Thank you for recognizing our culture and our people. This is your best video yet! Keep making outstanding music! We loving it down here in Oak Cliff Tejas. #chicanopower
I love that they got a regular lookin couple instead of a lil itty bitty skinny thang wearin barely nuthin 🙌🏽 not that there’s sumthin wrong wit that, Ijs the couples ‘real looks’ goes PERFECT wit this song 😍😍😌
This makes you feel Proud to Mexican...thats it. I fukkin got alil teary eyed with happiness. I just thank my God that i was blessed to to be a Mexicano. And to top it off i was born in Santana Orange County. In California where EVERYBODY want to see. #MexicanoPorFortuna
No better feeling then getting goosebumps when you listen to a smooth amazing song like this one and it’s rare for that to happen to me takes a lot of soul to feel that but Durand Jones and The Indications are by far killing every aspect of the music world with a beautiful old school feel I LOVE YALL MAY YALL MAKE BEAUTIFUL MUSIC LIKE THIS FOR YEARS TO COME
I worked with Art Laboe as a music assistant and answering requests at KRLA in the '70s. We called this genre "Base Records". I will forever love this Chicano sound. It is the LA I love. Base music is the best!
Being born and raised in the US from generations back to the S Trade, I was brought up on the soul foundation. I thought it was fading. It’s so refreshing to see its thriving and surviving and even coming back! Bring back real soul music! Thank you for this!
