As a writer, reporter, and producer for "The Week in Rock" and a wide range of documentaries including "Gangsta Rap: An MTV News Special Report," Abbie Kearse sat down with some of rock and hip-hop’s biggest legends and tackled some of the most important social issues of the day. This week, Abbie recounts interviewing a sleepy Joe Perry, tracking down an errant Rakim, covering Snoop and Tupac’s respective trials, hanging with Kurt Loder and Mick Jagger – and you won’t believe who turns up to perform at one of MTV’s infamous company parties.
