Stub?

I added the stub template based on the fact that the Tone Loc article, which is about the same size, also is marked as a stub. --Jay (Histrion) 12:01, 16 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

opinion

"His debut album, Stone Cold Rhymin, is generally seen as a brilliant pop rap album."

not by me. please rephrase. tell us how it sold or how a critic described it. 219.73.42.82 10:19, 8 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

"His later albums favour East Coast Rap, West Coast Rap and conscious minded Hip Hop instead of the often vapid Crunk and Southern Rap that was popular during the early-mid 2000s."

former?

Seems harsh to list him as a former rapper. He is still performing.

"In addition to producing the hit "Bust a Move", Young MC was also an accomplished songwriter, having co-written the hits "Wild Thing" and "Funky Cold Medina" for his brother Tony, Tone Loc."

I don't think they're actually brothers. He DID write those tunes for Tone Loc but I think it was just as a result of them being on the same record label. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ckalinwi (talkcontribs) 20:44, 15 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Know How

Any information about Know How? IMHO it's just as popular (if not more so) as Bust A Move, but no mention of it on the page. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 165.228.109.254 (talk) 21:37, 11 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Young MC's labels after Delicious Vinyl

In at least 2 instances, the record label Capitol is misspelled, even though the Wiki link for the company is included first with the proper spelling.

Rhino Entertainment is owned by the Warner Music Group, and the main Rhino label specializes in re-issues. It never signed Young MC directly as an artist. They may have obtained a license to reprint the album "Stone Cold Rhymin'" (and accordingly the hit single "Bust A Move"), or had some access to the Capitol material when he was signed with the label subsequent to his Delicious Vinyl contract. This distinction should be clarified.
