Video: Dig Of The Day: Boogie Down Productions Live At Yo! MTV Raps (1992)

This vintage footage of BDP‘s live performance is mesmerizing, it’s brilliant, and it’s on Yo! MTV Raps.

KRS-One on top of his game rippin’ the mic like crazy, a year before he released his indisputably timeless ’93 debut Return Of The Boom Bap. We In There is off BDP‘s 7th (!) and final album Sex And Violence, released in ’92 on Jive. Boogie Down Productions in 1992 was KRS-One, Willie D and Kenny Parker while the original 1987 BDP crew consisted of KRS-One, DJ Scott La Rock (RIP) & D-Nice.

The name of the group, Boogie Down, derives from a nickname for the South Bronx, one of the five boroughs of New York City.

Produced by Kenny Parker
