My High school years....88-91....after school at 4pm , rushed home to watch...The best show ever and then talk about it on the phone (no cell phones, only house phones or the cordless), with ur friends as u were watching a video Great Times.
Yo MTV Raps was the best
Omg, yes!
Ed OG and Da Bulldogs cranked! Love comes and goes was also a great song.
@Tomas Echevarria Ed OG!! Gotta have money to make it with the ladies in the ninetyyyyyyyyyyyy's
OMG...đđ.. I'm from the same era Marc Anderson. Class of "92."
NOTHING BUT GREAT MEMORIES.
Ed Lover is the definition of NYC radio.
PREACH
facts đŻđŻđŻ
Grew up on Ed, Lisa, and Dré.
Wendy?
@@joannelindsay4977 Wendy kinda changed it up with the gossip shit, but just the same. I can't knock Wendy at all.
It's good to see everyone in the comments showing Ed loveâ€ïž. There is no discussion of the last few hip hop generations without himđŻ. Before social media...there were legends like Ed Lover reporting to the masses, live interviews of rap beefs etc. Radio was instrumental & hence the importance of Ed the GOATđđŸ
Ivory Dogan well said
Facts đŻ
Sorry kids this is for us who had house phones wit long cords . Star 69 kids . Big up Ed Lover !
Yep!!
Hippy Gang I remember going back and forth between hot and power. In my teens getting ready for school listening to star and buc wild
Star 69 not tekashi 69
Shit i remember when Ă69 was like revolutionary tech stuff lol..like"wow you can actually tell who called you like that"?and dont get me started on Call Waiting đ
Im a 44 year old black man raises in the south..yalk just took me back in time of my life watching tv growing up. I thank u guys. #respek like ed says đđ
These kids these days would never know anything about Ed Lover or Dr.Dre. The original Talk Show Kings!
Dr Dre the rapper and producer was a radio host?
@@stacyr4768 nah sis there are like six doctor Dre's throughout the years lmao
@@MrGrace I found that out via this interview, should a sent a cease and desist or change the name.
@@stacyr4768 Lol, true.
Yo! MYV Raps! Legendaryâ€ïž
I like how Pete allows the guest to talk instead of cutting him off. Good interviewer
Ed Lover is a legend. Them freestyles use to have me crying. After school tradition, great times.
Walk in as a man; Walk out as a manđđœđđœđđœđđŸđđŸđđŸđđŸ
đđŸ This was a Dope Interview!!! I'm 48 and from NYC (South Bronx) so I can appreciate everything Ed Lover talked about.. I'm glad i stumbled upon this interview and Channel.... "Come On Son" đœ
CheavorTV đđŒ
Yeah me too
Ed Lover Deserves his Flowers!!!!!! No debate
For all you millennials yes there are two Dr. Dre's
@Rickey Henderson thanks Rickey... Ed Lover just literally "spelled" it out for him!
đ€Ż
@Rickey Henderson preach
ed ubinas You mean Gen-Z. Millennials are 80s babies and are now grown af with kids of their own. We know.
The Millennials jokes are getting so lame. There are Millennials who are damn near 40 homie.
What makes Pete a dope interviewer.... he allows the person to talk without cutting them off (I.E. Nore) smh..... #SALUTE
Absolutely!
I remember when Ed Lover was hosting Babalous Saturday night. The club was live on the radio, he use to pass the mic around and people would shout out their borough. You had to be there!!
Now the Djs just play the same song with less interaction and nobody has fun in the clubs anymore.
Facts
Damn this was a good interview
jum0n3y Yes..
You already know!
To get someone to sit through a hour and a half interview. Definitely a great interview! Mad props to ED and DRE
He was so open. I actually listened to the entire interview without fast forwarding
jum0n3y yeah it was. I just couldnât hear Pete to good
I Almost Forgot This Dude Was Really A Good Freestyler. Some People You Just Like Their Personality. This Cat Was One Of Them In The Industry Who Always Seemed Like A Genuine, Cool and Funny Dude.
Enjoyed this stroll down memory lane. Thanks for sharing.
Yo MTV raps, Hot 97, Power 105. He rapped, was in a couple of movies, and was friends with both Pac and Big. #Legend
Aldeb 456 you forgot rapper , producer , stand up comedian and he acted in several movies and he hosted several more radio shows
@@valeriejeffery4253 True
I love this podcast. I am west Indian I moved to NY in 1989 for years I enjoyed listening to Ed Lover.. A living legend!!! God bless..
Thank you for this interview. I used to look up to this dude back in the day and he still doesn't disappoint. Great stories. Very humble and real
I love the fact that this interviewer allows Ed to speak. No interruptions or long drawn self-testimonials about the interviewer. Refreshing.
Unlike vladtv
My man Ed Lover I Remember when he was holding his hand over 2pac mouth on Yo MTV Raps !! Classics on top of classics this dude. Ed Lover Podcast would be DOPE!!
A good brother with a legendary career! Ed Lover!đđđ
Ya is he from southern calolina?
Man, I could listen to these legendary history lessons all day. Thank you for this interview đ
Dawndusk T. Forever Classic
That Bill Cosby story, that Ed told, was LEGENDARY and PRICELESS.
Man RADIO LEGEND. I remember he use to do roll call & people use to call the station to freestyle, lady luck killed it.
We really need him back on SiriusXm. It's NOT the same!
Yeah man that show was dope and Ed is a great interviewer
@@jungulbuny3159 đ
@EdLover, brotha is an endangered species, a man's man. #RespectDue King
Anybody remember The Roll Call on hot 97 ? " What's up ya'll what ya gotta say" ...
"who's on the phone with Ed, Lisa & Dre?/
"They call me Smoke Smoke and I rep the streets/hold it down for my peoples, cuz we all gotta eat/"
"that sounds cool and that may be/so tell us where you calling from, 115?/"
I'm calling straight from Strong Island, home of P.E./ I own all their cassettes, mixtapes & CDs!!/"
Strong Island in the hoooouse!
Strong Island in the hoooouse!
Strong Island in the hoooouse!
Strong Island in the hoooouse!

OMG!!!! Blast from the past! I loved that.

"Who's on the phone with Ed, Lisa, and Dré?"
Can we get a Yo MTV raps Netflix movie ?
Great fucking idea. Could you imagine.
You already know thats in the makings that and i bet basement raps.
Facts

That would be cool!!!
Going to watch Who's The Man in the movies on opening weekend was a highlight of my youth!!

Miss you Ed Lover. You will always be the GOAT in my book. I'm a Generation x baby. Never missed your show. I only listen to your radio show cause you had the latest and new info all the time. Just wish I can turn back time and relive the great moments again.
Peteâs a good dude! You can just tell and see how these guests open up to him!

This was a good ass interview. I will always remember him being in Total's video "Sitting home" and he was crying and zapping out in the end of the video đđ€Łđ

Awesome Bill Cosby story! Thanks for sharing.
Ya
Ed Lover has stories for days in this Hip Hop game. I would love to have him back on New York radio. Power 105 did him dirty, It was crazy .
I never knew the details. That's fucked up what they did to him. These companies don't give a shit about anyone. Age discrimination is real.
Great Great interview !!! Radio and hip hop History!!! Man of respect and character !! Yo MTV raps, who is the man, morning show word of day. He should be on hip hop radio again !! NYC RADIO!!
Who remember Martin roasting Todd 1 about MC Lyte on Def Jam, lol? RIP
Weren't they Married or dated at one Time?
@@rissaceehart4076 Yes, they were married!
@@guarogee I THOUGHT they were or had dated at some point đ€·.I wonder?? how she felt about his passing?..Even though she's remarried Now.
@@rissaceehart4076 they dated and got married at some point. It should be hard for her tho.

Premier should have played that "Mark 45 King" beat and let Ed do his patented Ed Lover Dance! Classic! đđżâđż
Ed lover a fucking legend in this game !!! One of the last gate keeper for the kraft black people created for ourselves called HIP HOP . Now the white man owns all the radio and TV stations , controls the content we hear and see .
Now let's try to find solutions so the next 4 generations of non-white people can move on a constructive path. That's what Ed would want us to do, find solutions.
The older heads said then this would happen ! What do you see now ?
@@My2Sense-c7y Facts !!!
People gotta transcend and turn to the roots by grouping and creating one's own.
Factz ! And turning all the hip hoppers gay !!!!
This man is a LEGEND
This is by far my most favorite interview. Such a beautiful moment on camera
I remember when Power 105 was doing the whole "Make the switch" campaign. From hot 97 to power 105.
Yo Pete, thank you for this. I listened to this podcast while I was wt work. Definitely helped me get through the day. Ed Lover is a legend, icon, and pioneer of media and journalism for urban culture and Hip-Hop. Dope interview.
This was the 1st Premium Pete Show I've ever watched & I must say it was time well spent. Much respect to U & Ed Lover for the opportunity to listen to some dope stories. â
Dame Dash said get your own radio station!!!!!
If it was just that simple.
Dame says a bunch of stupid stuff that makes sense to idiots.
@@Melztweets Until it comes true.
Makes total sense.
Right?
Or have your own podcast
This was gr8, well done. Love to hear the legend speak while not being over spoken. Some interviewers donât get it. Ed & Dre are HIp HOp GOATs đđŸ
This was a really good interview.
The Legend. The GOAT. The example of Manhood. The example of Real Dude. Hip Hop Icon. Star Talents. Ageless Creativity & Vision. True Rep for the Culture.
I can't say enough. Much love, respect and appreciation for you, Ed Lover. You made my teenage & young adult years growing up as a female in the hard streets of the D (Detroit) the most fulfilling and memorable times in hip hop & culture.
Thank you, King. đđŸâđŸâ€đ€đ
Of COURSE we remember Todd 1 from Yo! MTV Raps. RIP đđđđșđž
Great interview. Thank you.
Love this!
I have that same shirt that Ed Lover has on! Its spinning in the dryer right now! đđđ
Hahaha
The dryer will ruin Tshirts. Try air drying on hanger and iron if needed...lol
DOPE INTERVIEW!!!đŻ
Thanks for this interview!! He and Doctor Dre had a huge following overseas back in the day. I grew up in Switzerland and loved watching Yo MTV Raps with Ed Lover and Doctor Dre in the 90s. Blessings to everyone.
Shout out to the legend Ed Lover for sharing his thoughts& stories!! Need more legendary hip-hop ppl on podcasts. Thx for having him on and keep grinding!!!!
I hung out with Ed and Curt Flirt last year at my cousins BBQ!! We drank a couple bottles of White Henny!! He is a great story teller. Him and Curt had me rolling. Their laughs were infectious. đđđđ
THIS WAS SUCH A GREAT INTERVIEW!!!! Big ups to Ed Lover!!
I love the way he says Brooklyn New York. I'm originally from Brooklyn too, so his accent is flavaaaaaaa to my heart.
Love this interview... đ„đ„đ„

Dope interview đđœ
Nothing but love for Ed. I lived in Hollis (Springfield Gardens High School) but the Knicks did right not offering K.D. max. Other than that loved the interview. One of the best storytellers.
boondocks naww u trippin bout kd
Facts my dude. Glamorous Knicks fans just donât get it. Never over pay injured guys. McDice and Stat shouldâve been a lesson learned for NY
bestofnyc they not kd tho yâall really think kd not going come back playing better than what he play now
Lyndon Simmons never said they were and anything is possible but when you the Knicks you canât keep doing the same popular stupid things.
I went to SGHS as well, hanging out with Anthony Mason
Awesome show, great stories, thank you.
Ed lover in the morning was everything! Starr & buckwild also had me laughing
Thank you for this interview. Brings back so much memories. One Love...Jah Bless â€đđ
EVERDAY after school .. I was watching and taping on vcr - YO MTV RAPS - made a million doors open - most classic EVER!!!!!!!
Great InterviewđŻ
Absolutely, wonderful interview!
This is a real dope interview
Premium Pete turn the mic up or speak closer to it my brother.
thanks for saying this.
This what happens when no one in the room wears headphones...There is no way you would not notice that 80% of what you are saying is off mic...Dude talk into the mic and wear headphone!
Right. Ed Lover is from radio so he knows you have to project your voice. Pete's whisperin' in the mic.
man, great interview! one of my heroes here
I meant at ed lover once, when I was a kid in Hackensack New Jersey, he was walking back and forth I think his car broke down or something, he was so cool, I didn't want to stress him or say anything, just said what's up and kept it moving, he seems to be a genuine dude, love this interview, best interview yet..
Need to see him on drink Champs..đ€đ€«
This was a great interview. I didnât know Ed Lover had this much clout. He is definitely a legend!
LOVE this interview â€
Yo his impressions are spot on!!! Lmao the dmx and the biggie one was crazy
My Mother told me years ago these jobs dont care about you. She was right and from the on I have been grinding in Real Esatate and work for transportation.
You mother was all the way right. Nope, they really don't care.
This interview was đŻđ„đđŸ
Totally subscribing to Prem PeteđđŸ
This TRULY has to be one of the BEST Hip Hop interviews EVER. Much love to ED LOVER. I grew up listening to that cat. Much respect. Good job guys đ
This was a terrific interview. Legendary stuff. I'm 46 years old so some of these stories Ed told were nostalgic. The good old days of rap !
Phenomenal interview!
A true legend speaking. The last of a dying breed. True hip hop.
Great interview!!!!
Really enjoyed this interview. I've met Ed Lover several times through my job when he was on the radio here in ATL. He is a really nice guy.
Amazing interview!!!
