New Podcast - A Tribute to BET Uncut


On Friday, July 8th, 2006, the landmark independent hip-hop program BET Uncut aired for the very last time. It was a sad moment for those of us who enjoyed the oftentimes NC-17 rated videos by artists such as Black Jesus, Joker The Bailbondsman, and Mighty Casey. Almost two years to the day, on Friday, July 4th, 2008, emcee Chaz Kangas was a guest on my radio show and we put together a half hour tribute to the legendary late night program. Now, on the fourth anniversary of the cancelation of Uncut, and the second anniversary of my and Chaz’s tribute to the show, we bring you our half hour tribute in podcast form for your listening pleasure.

A quick reminder: Please do not mourn on this day, you know Uncut wouldn’t want your tears... just a couple of ones thrown in the general direction of a girl on a pole.

For more on Uncut, check out my very in depth 2002 story on the show, complete with interviews with artists, dancers, and BET staffers, at The Reality Box.

Also, Chaz Kangas has an excellent retrospective of his Top Ten BET Uncut videos of all-time on his site, Popular Opinions.
