PBP | A Different World more real than College Hill

If BET wanted an equivalent to MTV's "The Real World" why did they feel the need to depict this coonery as the black college experience? Sellouts

Channel Surfin' | Fresh out the box

Noting says 90s more than Saturday nights between '94-'98/'99. What am I talking about you ask? Nickelodeon's SNICK! And everyone's favorite kid sketch comedy show Aaaaaaalllllllll That! No other show had some of the most talented youth artists in comedy. The most memorable characters included "Repairman" and "Ed"by Kel Mithcell, who spawned the popular movie Goodburger; "Ishboo" and "Superdude," both by SNL cast memeber Kenan Thompson; Amanda Bynes' "Ask Ashley," and Lori Beth Denberg's "Vital Information for You Everyday Life." Apart from the skits, was the entertainment. It was freakin Soul Train on Nick. (Because frankly people didn't watch Soul Train after the NJS era really) You had TLC singing the infectious theme song, along with acts like Brandy, Monica, Nicole Wray, Faith Evans, and LL Cool J on a kids show!!!

'98 | I Like This Right Here

Everyone may agree that The First Lady of Bad Boy's best song was the 70s-ish "Love Like This," but I equally bumped her second single on her sophomore album Keep the Faith. Where "Love" was funky in love for the ladies, "All Night Long" was cool on the dance floor for the fellas.

'09 | Pay Attention

Those are the two words, amidst an hour and a half of others, that the incredible Chuck D left me and a room of others. "Dumb shit flies fast," he said. We have to be able to detect it and stop it mid air. If we don't we become it. Besides this he also reminded us of what today is. Today is the day the voice of reason for black America was silenced 41 years ago in Memphis, TN. It is the anniversary of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s death. I'll admit I awoke today with no acknowledgment. Talk about paying attention.

P School | Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh-Oh-Oooooh

I may have been born in '87, but my parents began in '55 & '56 respectively, meaning when they were 21 they had P Funk. Dig?!? Its perfect when planning a dance/distraction to escape from a mental institution, right Ed?
