What are some good sites to see/view old videos. I am primarily looking for old School Hip Hop Youtube is ok . . . but can be hit and miss esp with some of the less mainstream stuff Rocket River
www.musicvideos.com ?? I don't know though, haven't really used it in a long time.. you can try it though.
Instead of videos I was gonna ask for an actual online music station that plays the old school hip hop from the video era (80's Yo MTV Raps to '99 BET Rap City). My favorite rap music site fatratradio.com was discontinued last month Haven't liked the alternatives so far MTV.com has a huge online archive. What I dont understand with them is why it lists so many results for vids that ARENT there anymore?
You can try something like Shoutcast.com or Live365.com. Live365 has one that plays real old school stuff (pre-1986). They're playing some Dana Dane right now. Sweet. lol.

This is what I'm talking about with MTV. In the search result for K-9 Posse http://www.mtvmusic.com/k_nine_posse (Yes, thats Charlie Murphy in the group) Similar Artists: Jungle Brothers DJ Cheese Daddy Freddy Masters Of Ceremony Super Lover Cee & Casanova Rud Word Of Mouth Besides Jungle Brothers, none of them even have any vids on the site. Its nice that they mention them, never heard of half of them but shouldnt MTV be the ones to have their content? I'd be searching for rap crap on it all day if they did! I'm sure they have their monetary reasons, but its too bad cuz MTV has a cleaner straight to the point layout than youtube.
I've never ventured out of youtube. The problem with you tube is that my mind goes blank when I get to the search option. I have a vision for an HD television channel that plays nothing but music videos and only one hour of scripted and rehearsed reality tv. It would totally be innovative.
Wow! K-9 Posse. Your taking me way back, bringing them up. I still have a promo release of their CD in storage, right next to my UTFO "Roxanne, Roxanne" single and the Rapper's Delight 12 inch. Good times, good times...
No videos, but if you're interested on old Houston club live recordings, check out the link below. I love it. http://www.imeem.com/tab5freddy/playlist/Z0vvCErq/club-6400-xcess-houston-music-playlist/ Or just type in Club 6400 and find the link without the password. I listen to it all the time at work. Great memories.

Nice find! High School all over again and it makes me feel depressed. I'm not a fan of getting old. I had to rep you for that.
I mean, how can you not like Eazy? He was hilarious. Totally NSFW, but hysterical. <object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/EyuEBu8b3-I&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/EyuEBu8b3-I&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>
