In support of the team's typical alphabetical foray into 90's hip-hop nostalgia, the A-Z til Infinity series will now be introducing a series of bonus episodes affording us the platform to speak more broadly on specific topics. With upcoming episodes that will see us delve into hip-hop's range of 90s music videos that saw the full range of do-it-yourself productions eventually scaling all the way up to the infamous Hype Williams era of $1million epics; we also have upcoming discussions that will find us delve deeper into a selection of our favourite hip-hop DJs and producers that painted the golden era's very canvas. Before then however, let's we're turning our attention to two of the decade's most divisive icons in MC Hammer and Vanilla Ice. At the height of their respective popularity, a transition to the silver screen seemed the logical way to capitalise upon their success so we were eventually treated to MC Hammer's 'Please Hammer Don't Hurt 'Em' in 1990 and 'Cool as Ice' in 1991. A lengthy discussion unfolds within the team as we unpack the pair's popularity, view and discuss both films and consider whether history has been kind to each's contributions to hip-hop. https://www.4everinelectricdreams.com/ ​Dan, Tee-J and Imran revel in their affections for 90s hip-hop by playing the expanded version of the Alphabet Game - each episode of A-Z Til Infinity sees the trio delve into subsequent letters of the alphabet in a bid to remember, reminisce and celebrate our affections for the bygone Golden Era of hip-hop by spotlighting artists and groups that meant the most to each of us.
