Know Ya Hip Hop- Nov. 17th (EPMD Parrish J. Smith)

On Friday, November 17, 1989, Hip-Hop legends EPMD and Boogie Down Productions featuring KRS-One put on a doubleheader of shows at the world-famous Apollo Theatre in New York. Listen for an exclusive from PMD himself on what he remembers from that night and performing at the Apollo.
The Blast Master had recently formed the “Stop the Violence Movement” in hopes of encouraging the community to end the senseless violence being committed. He gathered some of the East Coast’s biggest names to come together on the song "Self Destruction" which debuted at No. 1 on the first-ever Billboard “Hot Rap Songs” and held the spot for ten weeks.
