This day in hip-hop history features Naughty by Nature's misunderstood classic, Babyface's emotional entreaties, Shaggy's post-military raunch and more.
One of the most defining albums in hip-hop history was released 30 years ago today. Also on this day in hip-hop history, we have a Lil' rapper's debut single, a defining album from Rick Ross and more.
Who didn't love Shaggy back in the day? His 1995 hit single "Boombastic" which reached #1 on the Billboard Hot 100, selling over a million copied in the U.S. and 300K in the U.K. The single was such a big hit for him, Levis made it their theme song for awhile. Not too bad for a guy with an accent, huh?
