No Oldies Rap Stations
This is the best quote I've heard this year:
"There are no oldies rap stations", from one hit wonder (actually 2) rapper Young MC commenting this year on the 20th anniversary of the immortal "Bust A Move". He's right, though, there are no oldies rap stations, and I'm not counting online or satellite ones. But I wonder who would listen to it. The people who bought rap music in the 80's, but have tuned it out since? Would today's rap buyers listen to an oldies rap station? This is something to ponder.
