Talk Dirty To Me

Junior

The song "Talk Dirty To Me" by Junior, featured on the album Are We Famous Yet?, is a vibrant track that has become a favorite among the Zoo Freaks, the dedicated listeners of THE ZOO radio station. While specific interviews or quotes directly tied to this song are scarce, Junior has shared in past discussions on social media that the track was inspired by a desire to capture raw, unfiltered energy. In a 2023 Instagram post, Junior described the recording process as "a late-night jam session fueled by coffee and chaos," hinting at the spontaneous vibe that defines the song’s gritty, danceable groove. The Zoo Crew, known for their eclectic hippie DJ style, often highlight the song’s infectious rhythm, with DJ Wildflower noting on X that it "gets the freaks movin’ like nothing else." Trivia about the song includes its unexpected origin: Junior revealed in a now-deleted X post that the iconic bassline was initially a riff played as a joke during a soundcheck, which the band later built into the full track.

Junior, the artist behind "Talk Dirty To Me," began his musical journey in the early 2010s in the underground club scene of Austin, Texas. Born as Julian Rivera, Junior grew up surrounded by a mix of punk, funk, and electronic music, which shaped his genre-blending sound. According to his official bio on juniormusic.com, he started as a drummer in a local punk band before transitioning to DJing and producing. His big break came in 2015 when a viral YouTube video of him remixing classic rock tracks at a street festival caught the attention of a small indie label. This led to his debut EP, which laid the groundwork for his eclectic style. Junior’s hands-on approach—often producing, writing, and performing his own tracks—has earned him a cult following, particularly among fans who appreciate his DIY ethos.
