Eric B. & Rakim Reunite for the 30th Anniversary of ‘Paid In Full’

30 years have passed since Eric B. & Rakim dropped their classic record Paid In Full in 1987. The album is honoured in multiple charts as one of the Top 10 Hip-Hop records of all time.

Eric B. & Rakim both called Hot97’s Rosenberg Show to announce the reunion performance. “7/7/17 is 30 years since the Paid In Full album. We’re gonna be celebrating live at the Apollo Theater, Eric B. & Rakim and friends,” said Eric B. “It will be a celebration for Hip-Hop.”

Before getting down to the promotional business, a few moments were taken to reflect on Prodigy in the wake of his passing. Watch the show extract below.
