He did, but I couldn't find a good clip when I did the thread. I think I'm going to have to literally screen record from the episode.

I might need to signal boost and see if @stillnaima.bsky.social knows because I remember the New York Undercover thread featuring Natalie's performances, but that Gerald Levert feature was "A Song For You".

you heard it bc it sounds like it, but there is NO WAY urban radio would have let that slide. They censor everything

I think age does matter. Not so much "charging" but some level of responsibility to the bills, bc more adults in your house = higher bills.

In their 20s and trying to get on their feet? Maybe they just chip in on groceries or cover wifi.

But if I had to move in with my mom, I'm paying bills.

Xscape is a female R&B group who actually sings, not a male group in which only one person really sings and the other two mostly play rap whose signature is danceable uptempos. But again, BBD is not a Biv 10 group, it was not Mike's creative call.

3 dallas austin songs and 3 jermaine dupri songs in 1993 = them being accused of trying to sound like Kris Kross or ABC

BBD wasn't a Biv 10 project, so. Mike didn't have creative control.

Dallas didn't work on Poison, and ABC was HIS group; his little brother was in it. ABC & BIIM were working on their projects at the same time, which is probably how Dallas ended up on CooleyHighHarmony

[November 18th, 1985] In the Season 17 premiere of Sesame Street, Episode 2096, the adults on Sesame Street finally meet Mr. Snuffleupagus and realize he is real, not imaginary.

Elmo is also introduced as a new character.

I'm seeing people wonder why ICE is going after Charlotte.

ICE has been at war with Charlotte's sheriff ever since he won in 2018.

We'd covered this at Bolts back in the day; this quote is from that sheriff:

Y'all gotta leave Bobby out these conversations. Bad boy back then was him getting a dui and arrested for humping the stage.

those of us laid off from Teen Vogue were really fortunate to complete our fundraising goal β€” the laid-off staffers at VIBE deserve the same support, as Black media outlets and journalists continue to be targeted and discriminated against in β€œausterity” measures
