    Now this is one brotha whose humanitarianism is soooo underrated. Hammer helped many people by taking them off of the streets , some straight out of jail and others just down on their luck by giving them jobs and taking them on tour with him. And when the money left, they left. People give Vanilla Ice the credit for taking rap mainstream, but it was Hammer with this song. And Run DMC before him with "Walk This Way." I'm glad you're giving him his flowers. He's more than deserving. ❤

      Yeah,Many of those people were friends from the neighborhood they weren’t just strangers. It wasn’t so much that they left because the money ran out. Many of them not use to structure would get into fights with others from opposite gangs that were there as well and Hammer had to spend money to straighten things out and they were just bad for business. So, Some ended up just going back to the street. I don’t know if you understand this but many people from the neighborhood will come back and lookout as we call it. But,Hammer learned a valuable lesson that you can’t help everybody. Lol Believe it or not a rapper/ actor by the name of Ice-T can be credited with taking Rap mainstream as well with a Rock/Rap band. He recorded and performed a song called “Fuck the Po$&@e”.That song exposed to his predominantly white audiences helped and a trio of three white guys called the “Beastie Boys”helped as well. Just adding a lil info to your comment. Lol

    Dude, those pants were MC Hammer's signature. And MC Hammer just so you'll is who influenced people like Bobby Brown and Chris Brown. Although I lot of people will not give him credit he has definitely made his mark in the music industry in the late 80's and early 90's. He was and still is the bomb in my opinion.

    MC Hammer aka Stanley Burrell is the pride of Oakland CA. In his youth, he was a bat boy for the Oakland A's. Reggie Jackson and the A's owner thought he looked like baseball legend Hank (The Hammer) Aaron, and the nickname stuck. During his heyday, he had hit records, main song in Addams Family movie, a Saturday cartoon called Hammer-Man. Hammer still lives in Tracy CA with his wife of almost 38 years Stephanie and they have raised five kids, and a nephew. Although always mentioned for his infamous financial fall, Hammer employed people from Oakland who needed a job. Hammer has never been broke. He is heavily invested in tech, produces acts, involved with youth ministries in the states and abroad. Truly a wonderful man.

    Shawny dancing and trying to do the choreography of the videos has me crying laughing every time. Before Hammer, rappers used to walk back and forth on stage with a microphone and maybe a hype man. It was not a performance. But when Hammer came out, he put on a show and made everybody step their game up, add dancers and hype men and choreography, etc. Two words...Hammer Pants. His live concerts were on another level and he didn't stop even when the show was supposed to be over. Check out Let's get it started or Pump it up.

    Those were called parachute pants or harem pants. Popular style in the late 80s-early 90s.
    That was the early days of "sampling." Hammer got in trouble with this song for sampling the main riff from Rick James' "Super Freak" without permission. Hammer was sued by James, but it was settled out of court, with Hammer agreeing to credit James as a songwriter.
