Yo! MTV Raps 20th Anniversary

For the month of April, MTV is celebrating the 20th Anniversary of Yo! MTV Raps! In my opinion, it is a very influential show, even though it's no longer on the air. I made sure that I was in front of the television when the first show came on with RUN DMC in '88 and I was upset when it went off the air in '95. Rap City provided a decent replacement but it couldn't beat the original. I'm glad that they've brought back clips and videos from that period of time, it had a lot of great rap music!

Oh yeah...Is there anybody else out there who was/is a fan of the show?

I watched the countdown last weekend. It was an excellent show and countdown. I will definitely tune in this weekend!

I liked it so much that I used to buy the trading cards.

Aaaahhh... I remember those days. The show that singlehandedly turned white people on to rap music. If you were a REAL fan, however, you'd have the single that Dre and Ed Lova put out waaaaaaaay back when...

^^^I think I remember that single!

From the "Who's The Man" days or more wayer back then?

When I wake up in the morning and I drink my coffee... :thinking2:
