Bet Awards 08-Alicia Keys w/ SWV, EnVogue & TLC
For those who missed it , here's the footage of Alicia Keys with SWV, EnVogue and TLC at 2008 BET Awards. Some might argue what does this have do with Hip Hop?
But just remember, LL Cool J lifted the baseline from EnVogue's "Hold On" for the "Boomin Systems." Before Mariah Carey hooked up with Old Dirty Bastard for “Fantasy” remix in 1995, SWV worked with the Wu-Tang Clan in 1994 for the "Anything" remix and TLC basically was an R&B/Rap version of Salt &Pepa.
Besides, anytime I have chance to put Terri Ellis (EnVogue) and Chili (TLC) on the blog , I'm going to take it. Enjoy!
