50 Cent, Lil Wayne, Nas, Busta Rhymes, and LL Cool J all made their final rounds on BET's Rap City yesterday. The show was BET's longest running show and it finally called it quits."I can't lie. It's sad to say goodbye to 'Rap City,'" said Stephen Hill, BET's Interim President in a statment. "It's been the longest running hip-hop show ever and the classic moments are too many to name. The last Biggie interview, the numerous folks that got crazy in the legendary booth, the introduction to the world of so many of today's superstars."
Joe Clair, Mad Linx, J Nikcs, Q45, Chris Thomas, Big Lez, Prince DaJour, and Big Tigger all made appearances to lay the iconic show to rest. "Rap City" made its debut back in 1989. It was the go to place for hip hop music videos, interviews with artists the other networks wouldn't touch and (of course) the infamous freestyles. It was also a platform for DJs, who were given the chance to co-host the show.
The final episode aired last night (Saturday) at 10pm but I'm sure it will be on again if you missed it the first time.
