GLC – “I Ain’t Even On Yet”
I’ve received quite a few emails and requests from people looking to see the full length videos of what ran on yesterday on MTV Jams’ Chicago Day. I figured I’d post all of them as a refresher course for those who may have previously missed it.
Thanks to everyone who tuned in, participated on Twitter, and helped spread the word. #ChicagoDay was actually a trending topic twice yesterday, which is no small feat. Also, thanks to everyone who shared their opinions and made suggestions for the next go ’round. We obviously didn’t have carte blanche to run anything we wanted, but how could you complain about seeing classic videos from Kanye, Twista, R. Kelly, Common, Crucial Conflict and Da Brat (and many more) all day long. I made sure that I watched every minute of it, and was proud to see it pulled off. The Sway interviews with George Daniels and David Banner were also great. Look out for my interview with Sway coming later on.
Thanks to Tuma Basa at MTV, Sheila Grullon, 24-7 Hip Hop, WGCI and Kyra Kyles – not to mention all of the artists and directors who made this possible.
Sidenote: I don’t have a copy of the LEP “We Eat’n Good” video, but it will be premiering soon.
