This is one song I kinda slept on from The Audio Two's "What More Can I Say" album, I remember Top Billin' seemed to overshadow this and many of their songs in my mind because it's such a timeless, repeatable classic. I Like Cherries is one of those songs that have a very carefree feel, it's an example of the unpredictable creativity, originality and humor in song you could expect between artists of the late 80's era. Nowadays I know this song, even for the title alone, would most likely get looked at as something comical, which it is in some ways, like something a child would enjoy. However, I think since there were more artists out then to make you laugh when writing about common things in life, instead of acting hard and sounding so much like one another, this humor was more excepted and appreciated in the listening experience.

I appreciated the light-heartedness of songs from this period in discovering hip hop as a child, from artists who displayed intellectual qualities and a love of life. I'll never abandon this style and content of hip hop as time goes on, as less originality is shown in current artists it only makes me appreciate this era more.
