- Yo! MTV Raps was a music video program show dedicated to appreciating and uplifting the world of hip hop in the late 80s and 90s. Many artists from that time period would go on the show and show off their talents with performances and skits. From Fab 5 Freddy's incredible interviewing skills to Ed Lover and Dr Dre's comical personas it was the show to watch during that time period. But like the saying goes - everything good thing must come to an end. Here's why Yo! MTV Raps ended.

The title should be the history of Yo MTV Raps.
Yo! MTV Raps had its series finale ended on August 17, 1995. Numerous high-profile names in the world of hip-hop closed the show out with a freestyle rap session. Salt-N-Pepa holds the distinction of appearing on the first (technically, the first episode to feature Fab 5 Freddy) and last episodes of Yo! MTV Raps. From 1996 to 1999, MTV repackaged it as simply Yo! The repackaged version was far more stripped down. Yo! had a weekly slate of special guest hosts. For instance, Angie Martinez and Fatman Scoop served as its hosts. By 1998, Yo! had no guest hosts and became a one-hour program airing late Friday nights at 1 a.m. or 1:30 a.m. (Eastern Standard Time). In 2000, MTV's outlet for hip-hop videos became Direct Effect, known since 2006 as Sucker Free. It aired three times a week at around 7:00 PM (Eastern Standard Time). It is one of the few music video outlets for MTV besides its late-night/early-morning music video rotation hours, as MTV continues to focus on non-music video programming, especially reality television shows.
Because Rap City & The Box started whoopin that azz ✊🏽💯 how u leave out teen summit
Definitely forgot about teen summit!
Teen summit isn't in the same category
Video Music Box is still around.
There's a difference between Hip Hop and Rap which others still fail to acknowledge to this day
Great video and thank you for making this as it brought back some great memories of (for me) the greatest period in hip hop. I really wish MTV or whoever owns the rights would publish the episodes on a streaming service for us old heads to relive those glory days but sadly I don't think it will ever happen and I can't see a reboot having anywhere near the same appeal for all the reasons Dre mentioned.
That Grand Puba episode at 0:56 was the very first one I ever saw, back in '92, when a friend of mine recorded it for me, off his satellite TV, here in Liverpool, England. He went on to record every episode for me, until the show finished, almost 3 years later.
Hello from Brasil , YO ! Mtv raps classico forever
Misinformation. Rap city was first. Real hip hop culture watched rap city FIRST. Yo was a more hip hop light cause mtv FINALLY noticed bet was onto something. Those who were not there during specific eras need to ask their elders who are in the know.
Thank you for pointing that out. I appreciate the feedback.
According to Wikipedia, RapCity first aired 11 August, 1989 while Yo Mtv Raps first aired 6 August, 1988.
Video Music Box was first. 1983.Check YOUR elders.
Yo MTV rap been going on for 30 years that’s wassup but a lot of people streaming their music on CZcams downloading music on iTunes. I don’t know it was good lasted, but things must come to an end.
I'm sorry to say this but even if they do have a reboot yo MTV raps 30 years ago explained the culture this environment today and all those some people may say you can't say that actually you can it's not going to be the same it doesn't mean that they shouldn't try but honestly they should just leave it alone
To be honest. It all came down to money. Think about it. They took a great show off the air. Then they repackage it and just called it Yo. Also they had various artist hosting the show from late 1995 to 1998 with Angie Martinez and Fatman scoop. In 1998, Yo official ended. Ed Lover had said it that there plan was to do 10 years. So from 1988 to 1998 was the actual plan. Ed even stated that had MTV keep them after 1995. Mtv would have to pay them the big money. So instead of not wanting to do any of that. They cancelled the show and took them off the air. That's the real story.
To each his own; I don't feel a lot of present, hip-hop. Not the way I once did. Modern hip-hop is for the most part, hit-and-miss.
Still my favorite tv show of all-time
Yo! Mtv Raps Is was and always well be hip hop! Yo! mtv Raps Forever!
Happy 30th anniversary to Mthe show crazy this video pops up in my feed today.

Hell nah! This so called rap is CRAP!
it's all about getting the BAG! the "bag" messed up hip hop!
This show had good life span for being an mtv show/production, and outlived quite a few of it's network siblings
Is that Ted Demme on the thumbnail? Why does it look like Mike Golic?
