CHUCK D:
New Head of Programming 4 MTV Hip Hop!


Does this mean that we'll see the "Face Down" or other Hip Hopish songs by Mr. P?

Let's all pray for a quick death to rap and hip-hop...

yamomma said:

no. but, on the bright side, we'll probably start seeing good stuff.

AaronForever said:

You just implied that there could be a good rap/hip-hop video...

Hmmm...

IceNine said:

well, there are some decent hip-hop acts out today (the roots, de la soul, etc.)...as 4 those gangsta-wannabes...

you sure this just isnt a joke? prince making reference to the Public Enemy fight with MTV?





instead of just coming out and saying something, once again the fool has to make a vague comment..errr

I'd be surprised if this were true, especially considering all those in control of the media. Anyway, since when does MTV play videos anyway?

yamomma said:

Thats odd, considering MTV banned PEs newest video.

I'd rather see them play some old Sugar Hill Gang, Grandmaster Flash, Whodini, etc.

Damn, means more Eminem and Nelly

shoot me now!

yamomma said:

oh heck yes.

I suppose Public Enemy will now get their video shown.

SkletonKee said:

Sounds like a joke to me as well. Maybe someday, in the distant future, Mr. P will actually say what he means rather than in mysterious code
Nah, I doubt it

Ha, haaa...sweet.
PEACE

The next update should read:

New Head of Shipment for NPGMC is SDLDAWN!

Now u'll finally start seeing some of ure already paid cd's in the mail, with a confirmation.. He wont let nothing slip by, like a silly empty package



well, maybe u wont see that.. but maybe:)

Quit hating on hiphop goddamn it, if you are gonna judge the entire artform based on chart shit like Nelly or Ja Rule then we should be judging rock music based on Linkin Park or some shit like that

Anyway Chuck D tells it like it is... here:

Best thing U ever wrote ICE!!!

IceNine said:


See in response to my Pink thread...I really like you Ice, and many times I agree with you...but can't you see the value in some rap? There is some worth in every musical genre whether it's your thing or not. And for as much as I hate country I think it has its place. Don't you even like Missy? or Beastie Boys?

Tom said:

Banned? Or simply declined to play it because they figured their teeny-bopper audience wouldn't be interested in a group of rappers who are near/over 40 years old?

yamomma said:

I think this means that p and the npgmc would like to see Chuck become the new program director, because MTV just plain sucks.

Abrazo said:

I think your right.

MTV still exists?! ::stunned::

matt said:

They wanted PE to edit the content of the audio. Some incarcerated controvertial figure was shouted out
("...free ___") and PE refused. I don't think MTV considers relevancy anymore - just air-ability.

Abrazo is back...!
