FRIEND: what did you think of it?

FRIEND: hey i have a question for you that maybe you'd know

TexanlostNBoston: haha k. and i liked them. they're so little

FRIEND: the song nic's groove by foreign exchange

FRIEND: is that beat original or sampled from something and if so what

TexanlostNBoston: mm..i don't know. i thought it was original

TexanlostNBoston: i can go ask around

FRIEND: yeah i've been searching the internet and can't find any indication its sampled so i think its original too

FRIEND: have any new music suggestions for me to look into?

TexanlostNBoston: wat are you in the mood for?
