When this blog was set up it was always my intention to share much of my video collection as I have a lot of stuff that doesn't currently appear on YouTube etc. I've had some limited success doing this over the years, but recently I've found some time to rip some of my old tapes and upload the clips to the YouTube channel. And with my new PC being delivered soon, hopefully there'll be more of these rarities to come in the near future.
In early 1992, a group of mostly British hip hop acts came together to perform for one cause, to raise awareness of AIDS. This resulted in a concert which was filmed and shown on Channel 4.
It features many of the biggest names in British hip hop at that time, Hijack, Caveman, Cookie Crew and the Rebel MC alongside the headliner, Master Ace (yep, before he switched up his name spelling). The live performances are interspersed by interviews with the artists. Given that 20+ years have passed, these are as entertaining as the performances. Hearing K-Sly telling people to wear a condom is somewhat odd, although highly commendable. Also featured are 11:59, Tenor Fly, Barrington Levy, Ragga Twins, Nefateri and Apache Indian.
