Power Book III: Raising Kanan brought me here too. I hadn't heard this joint in decades. No doubt we rocked this in high school and proof before "Baby Got Back" made him mainstream, Sir Mix Lot already had several hits that were played on the regular that already had his name ringing out.

Vicky Bagley 1 song they started slappin but then the box got shut down was “Straight Up” by Chanté Moore. I’m convinced that song would’ve been a bigger hit if the box had been around for a few more months but for the box ended it’s run that song got less airplay and the end of the momentum. At the time I thought there goes another outlet for R&B/hip-hop exposure.
