🎶 The Banger We Forgot: DJ Pied Piper & The Masters of Ceremonies – "Do You Really Like It?"

[popghost]

🌀 The Banger We Forgot
Every once in a while, a song lodges itself in the culture like glitter in a shag carpet - everywhere, all at once, then suddenly… nowhere. This series is my shrine to the forgotten bangers: the ones that had their moment, got memed into oblivion, and somehow slipped off the aux queue. I'm digging through scratched CDs and cassette dubs to bring them back to life. One 🔊 at a time.

Back in the spring/summer of 2001, this song absolutely ran the playground. Your cousin had it on a burnt CD-R, it blasted from the back of a tinny Nokia, and it shot to No.1 in June like a garage comet. “Do You Really Like It?” is pure time-capsule UKG - sticky, cheeky, bouncing like trainers on a trampoline. It was a moment when pirate radio sounds cracked the mainstream wide open.

Why does it still slap? The simplicity is hypnotic: one perfect hook, call-and-response vocals, and a bassline like a grinning dare. It’s not overproduced, not trying to be clever - it’s just fun. And sometimes, fun is the point.

If I were DJ Skipless (RIP to that alias), I’d drop this in the last third of a set just after a modern M1llionz or Piri track—pure vibes-reset button. The second that “Do you really like it, is it is it wicked?” hits, the room turns into a youth club circa 2001, and everyone’s eight again in trackies and jelly bracelets.

Airhorn Rating: 4.5/5 🔊🔊🔊🔊✨
Losin’ half a 🔊 for becoming a cliché for about a decade. Gaining it back for still going off every time.
