Reasons why I love YouTube # 68

MC Lyte - Paper Thin
(From Lyte As A Rock album; 1988)


Another video I had no idea existed until I stumbled upon it on the 'Tube recently: MC Lyte's Paper Thin. Brooklyn's in the house with this one since it functions as a missing link between Lady Pink ridin' the train in Wild Style and Fabolous' Young'n (Holla Back)/Right Now And Later On video, but with added 1988 Volkswagen Jettas and pre-fame cameos from MC Serch + that bird who played Will's dimwitted cousin in The Fresh Prince of Bel Air. Warning: also contains a very unfortunate AZN stereotype.
