    Next Stop, Uptown

    In this episode, we're discussing how Uptown Records reshaped that sound and style of a generation. From the rise of new jack swing with Teddy Riley and Guy, to Mary J. Blige and Jodeci redefining what R&B could be, Uptown didn't follow trends, it set trends. Uptown also helped to bring Black culture to both big and small screens with the film Strictly Business, and New York Undercover tv show. With the Uptown MTV Unplugged special, they proved that hip hop and R&B could hold its own in the same arena as pop and rock legends. Uptown was more than just a record label, and was the blueprint for pretty much every urban record label that followed. For more Uptown content that we've done, head to our website and check out our episodes on Mary J. Blige (Episodes 9 & 77,) Jodeci (Episode 40,) Heavy D (Episode 69) and Teddy Riley (Episodes 70 & 71.)

    Where Are My Background Singers?!?!

    A lot of people that we now call stars, were once background singers and backup dancers. If you listen to some of your favorite songs or watch some videos you’ll recognize some voices and faces that you may have never noticed before. But not all of these stories have a superstar ending. A lot of people were able to carve out solid and recognizable careers, even if they weren’t household names. You definitely remember them, though. That's what we're discussing on this episode, some of your favorite hook singers like Tammy Lucas, Vinia Mojica and LaToiya Williams, as well as video and tour dancers like Oaktown's .357 (MC Hammer), Str8 Ahead (Bell Biv DeVoe) and Hot Dog (Chubb Rock). Here's a link to theYouTube playlist for this episode. Also, here's the link to the We Danced Hard YouTube playlist as well.
