The Commercials Channel Shares Rare Yo! MTV Raps Clips & 80's American Nostalgia

This clip from a YouTube channel dedicated to presenting throwback commercials is pure 80's nostalgia. Journey back to a time where the joyful tone of American TV advertising made you feel good about many consumer products. In this video, you get a preview of the action classic for the movie Lethal Weapon 2, a commercial for the discontinued brand of toothpaste Close-Up, interview clips from Heavy D, Eric B & Rakim plus more. 

The juxtaposition of Hip Hop and middle-to-upper-class American culture is interesting to see here. One of the reasons why this period of the late-80's and Hip Hop's mainstream breakthrough is so exciting to witness.
