****HIP-HOP HISTORY FACTS****
Question: Who was the 1st male west coast artist that Russell Simmons ever signed to Def Jam?
Answer: Mel-low (Compton, CA)
Mel-low’s music video “Blaze It Up” feat Redman was first video by a Def Jam artist to ever get banned from being played on BET and MTV. The “BLAZE IT UP” music video became an underground hit!!! The video went on to become the #1 video in America on THE BOX (“The Box” was the largest call-in request music video show in America at the time) and it held the top spot for a whopping 8 weeks straight, holding off other artist like Dr Dre, Michael Jackson, and many other from the top spot.
