Funny you should mention this album. I remember when Rap City played Lovin It one time and then never again.

I was just listening to the album its crazy how well the Listening and the Minstrel show have aged. They are timeless albums.

They actually played it?

I saw it on vh1 soul a bunch of times, but never knew bet actually aired it

The funny thing is that says way more about what BET thought about its own audience than it ever said about LB.

At or around the same time BET also banned videos from De La Soul, Tribe, Gang Starr, Black Moon, and some others.

That was the height of the ring tone era, and if your shyt wasn't a ring tone they didn't wanna play it.

Looking back that was a pretty terrible time for hip-hop.

Bruh i agree hiphop was at its lowest point mainstream wise.

Yea once they realized the video was a scathing critique/parody, they killed it.

The Listening and the minstrel show are specials albums that cannot be duplicated.

Personal classic. 2005 was a great year for hip hop. I had conscious classics, trap classics, and West Coast classics to bump
