S5 Ep 1: Independent with Sir Mix-A-Lot
Manage episode 312074056 series 3223913
The first independent artist I ever knew also happened to have the #1 song in the country, which ended up being one of the most licensed songs of all time and shifted culture to this day. Sir Mix-A-Lot is a Hip Hop pioneer and Seattle Family who I’ve always respected not only due to his talent, or his business acumen, but also forward thinking mentality and respect for community.
2022 will be the 30th Anniversary of Baby Got Back. Not just a song about buts…. It spoke truth, MANY say for the first time, about the representation of African American women in the media. If this song wasn’t created would the Kardashian’s look the way they do today? Would Brazilian Butt Lifts be one of the. Most popular and dangerous surgeries in the world? Would Beyonce ever talked about Jay Z cheating on her with BECKY with the good hair?
Hang out for a bit of history and a healthy dose of music biz mentoring from the one and only Sir Mix A Lot.
