The Last 18 Years in Rap: 1992-2010

Here it is: The last Week in Rap of the school year. Only we decided to do something special for the high school graduates. This is the past 18 years in rap. Unfortunately, we weren’t able to link to all of the stories. Have a great summer! See you in the fall!
The vimeo file above may take a few moments to load. As always, if you can’t view the video, you can view or download (right-click and save as) the quicktime version here or view Channel One’s version here.
1992 –
Rodney King verdict, Bill Clinton is elected,
No more cold war, Yugoslavia’s dissected,
David Koresh and his cult do not make it,
94 – The year of Nelson Mandela,
And Genocide in Rwanda, I’ll tell you,
Republicans they came in, they followed a Newt,
And Forrest Gump ate a box of chocolates too,
95 – First female secretary of state,
OJ Simpson gets acquitted, he was out in L.A.
Pokémon debuts, but it is a pity,
Gaza and the West Bank, are you feeling them?
They’re not Israeli anymore, they’re Palestinian,
