This week, our Patreon pals picked a song that had Matt and I cuttin’ a rug down memory lane—Young MC’s 1989 smash hit “Bust a Move.” From penning hits for Tone Loc to grabbing a Grammy and storming the charts, Young MC made the most of a short but unforgettable moment in the spotlight. We dig into how the song came together, the role Delicious Vinyl played, and why this track still hits decades later. Plus, we look at what happened after the hype, from his evolving music career to his appearances on everything from Celebrity Fit Club to new indie releases. So throw on your flyest outfit, turn up the boombox, and get ready to bust a move with us.
