As Bean mentioned before, we made each other Mix CDs a few months ago themed ‘what we listened to in high school’. We were both in high school in the nineties, so it’s a great overview of what the nineties sounded like. Well, let me tell you that they sounded like fun. One of the songs I picked was Imani Coppola’s “Legend Of A Cowgirl”. She hasn’t made big ripples in the music industry since that song, but it was a big hit in 1997. I love the strong independent woman lyrics combined with rap/storytelling and a catchy chorus. I also remember thinking that she combined so many elements of pop that she was destined to be a big shiny pop star for sure. I imagined kid’s bedrooms plastered with her face and eventually maybe even an Imani doll. Sadly, the world seemed to forget about her as soon as the song was over.
