We’ve done a lot of renovations at home over the past year and the basement has pretty much turned itself into a storage room. But it came time this week for me to start going through all the bins, bags and boxes of stuff from my old room. Amongst the piles, I came across some incredible things that are slowly starting to become retro to my days as a kid who is only 20. (Yes you may have some way older retro stuff in your basement but this is whats old school and full of memories for me)
For starters: Vengaboys, ‘N Sync (No Strings attached & Celebrity) , Aqua, Lou Bega, Ricky Martin, Shaggy, Aaron Carter, TLC, Usher, Mario, Soul Decision, Shawn Desmond, B44 , Avril Lavigne, Ashlee Simpson, Black Eyed Peas (Elephunk), Nickelback, 50 Cent (Get Rich or Die Tryin’) Ludacris (Chicken and Beer), Good Charlotte, Outkast (Speakerboxx and The Love Below), Christina Milian, 3 Door Down (Away from the Sun), Eminem (Encore) CD’s.
