Wow, that first question to Hammer sure made that interview start off really awkward. That's crazy that such an innocent question can tank an interview so quickly.

Not impressed with MC, where's Om!
How many video sharing sites do there really need to be. I think his site will be like his music, here today gone tomorrow.
I'm going to start a video site focusing on pruning. A place where to pros can gather and share video about trimming bush.
Keep up on the good work, better luck next time.

Hammer was on CNET Live too. I actually think that's a better and more informative interview.

It was awkward for sure, but I don't think it ruined the entire interview. I think she was too excited perhaps. It's MC Hammer dude. Haha.
It's still a cool idea but maybe not a big thing for those who don't care much about dance. Not sure how big of a need there is for this but it's always good to have a focused community. Youtube has many videos but it gets hard to search specific styles of video you want. Maybe this will be good for those users. There's dancing tv shows now, so perhaps this is a growing culture in young generations. We have seen many movies for dancing recently too.

Well I really applaud Mr. Hammer's attempt at rewriting his epithet, despite the fact that he still calls himself MC Hammer...
(p.s. nice bling ring bud!)

The C|net interview was much better. Watch that one, he seemed more comfortable and gave more details.

(p.s. nice bling ring bud!) WTF is an epithet? Oh, I get it. Hahahahaa... As in "Here Lies MC Hammer..." etc... Yeah, I still love his fashion sense. Some children just never grow up. Hopefully, he learned from that last 'round and won't blow all the muny this time. Well, er, maybe he'll start another trend and actually make something off of the 'new' pants?

You know, I am not sure that everyone realizes all the good he does with things like kids and the homeless. Yeah, it's easy to see a niche market with Dance Jam.com (I thought it was cool enough I made a Squidoo site on it - see my signature if you want to see it) But the cool thing is that I learned a lot about what he has been doing since he lost his 'baggy dance pants'...way better than most 80 hip hop or other Hollywood types, so good for him! Did you know he has 6 kids??? :cool:

well I think that's more of an epitaph, but hey, I guess we're both still giving the guy his due credit
