I remember this like it was yesterday, the Hip Hop community giving Arsenio love on his last show... most of these young rappers can't do shit like this now

This is one more reason why 88-93 is still THE best hip-hop/rap era.

Dayum! I miss Arsenio Hall! When Arsenio "left the building", he REALLY left the building! That brother knows how to disappear better than anyone I have ever known. Would love to sit down and chat with him today. I hope he is well and happy. I wish him love and contentment.

Also, can't believe how much time has gone by since these "rappers" were on the top of their game - NOW, they're considered OLD SCHOOL!?!? Jeez! Times are moving quickly!

How long before Ne-Yo and Chris Brown will be sporting gray hairs on those nutsacks they hoist so lovingly?

That was so nice to see, I have to post the video for those that won't click the link!

This is HIP HOP!!!! KRS-One, Guru, Yo-Yo, Mc Lyte...

The real....Hip Hop! THe VErse that Yo YO wrote was top notch.

Are you kidding me?!? The first 3 seasons of The Arsenio Hall Show were the best. Granted, Arsenio wasn't perfect by a long shoe. But he was good enough to make old man Johnny Carson retire.

Is that shit on DVD yet??

It needs to be.

But you know ViaCON (the owner of Paramount/CBS) have the video master tapes on lock & chain at the moment.

he sure did! he knew not to rush into anything else for a while which is a good move. let people rinse off the arsenio hall show before jumping into something else. I mean he left without looking back. I wondered if he left the industry for good or not back then. I did like the party machine. that show had all the groups and arsenio had his hands in that show as well.
