These days, in the world of Hip Hop, deliberately dropping one’s microphone is a regular occurrence. But it wasn’t always that way.
In fact, only the truest of hip-hop fans could identify the pioneer of this ‘move’.
It was the one and only Rakim, in his 1987 track titled – “I Ain’t No Joke”.
“I used to let the mic smoke … now I slam it when I’m done … and make sure it’s broke”.
Since its origin, 30+ years ago, many artists outside the Hip Hop world have emulated the move, as well. My personal favourite – “Coming to America’s” Randy Watson and his band, Sexual Chocolate!
The ‘mic drop’ has come to symbolize the ultimate expression of confidence & supremacy!
What does this have to do with Match and Fable’s role?
Nothing, really.
That said, if Match and Fable’s latest role was a microphone – I’d be slammin’ it down – with authority! In fact, once I’m finished writing this post … I’m seriously considering dropping my laptop in the middle of the office – as a tribute to this brilliant opportunity!
It’s not often I consider quitting my career as a Headhunter and begging my client to hire me. This is absolutely one of those times!
I guess I should have paid more attention as a kid, in French class!
