A lot of people that we now call stars, were once background singers and backup dancers. If you listen to some of your favorite songs or watch some videos you’ll recognize some voices and faces that you may have never noticed before. But not all of these stories have a superstar ending. A lot of people were able to carve out solid and recognizable careers, even if they weren’t household names. You definitely remember them, though.

That's what we're discussing on this episode, some of your favorite hook singers like Tammy Lucas, Vinia Mojica and LaToiya Williams, as well as video and tour dancers like Oaktown's .357 (MC Hammer), Str8 Ahead (Bell Biv DeVoe) and Hot Dog (Chubb Rock).

Also, here's the link to the We Danced Hard YouTube playlist as well.
