Week 3
104-3 JAMS celebrates Black History Month with a look back at the Black Creators that forever changed the music landscape with THIS WEEK IN HIP-HOP HISTORY! Presented by U.S. Bank.
1988: Before the Fresh Prince moved to Bel-Air and DJ Jazzy Jeff was getting thrown out of the house by Uncle Phil, the duo released the hit single "Parents Just Don't Understand". Bringing new audiences to hip-hop, the song later earned a Grammy for best rap performance in 1989.
1990: A Tribe Called Quest released their hit song "Bonita Applebum". Argued by many as the best rap love song of all time, Bonita Applebum is a fan favorite from one of the most beloved, revered and legendary hip-hop groups in music history.
1999: The Roots released their fourth album "Things Fall Apart".
Considered their breakthrough album, the stunning sounds of this record featured collaborations with Mos Def, Common, Eve, Jill Scott, Erykah Badhu, DJ Jazzy Jeff and more.
