From PBS:

Larger than life, ex-convict Petey Greene burst onto the airwaves in the 1960s with raw and uncensored radio and TV shows on racism, poverty, sexuality and drug abuse, awakening Washington, D.C.’s African American community to the power of “telling it like it is.” ADJUST YOUR COLOR: The Truth of Petey Greene chronicles the life and times of America’s first shock jock, a man who spoke the truth to people in power and influenced a new generation of broadcast personalities.

Funny shit from It's The Real: Mood Muzak

dopejoints@gmail.com — Mon, 09 Feb 2009 17:57:11 PST

As funny as this clip is, it highlights how disgustingly obnoxious DJ's can sometimes be. Shouting over the mixtapes, interrupting great songs with bullshit blabber...the cats at The Real (again) have hit the nail on the head with this one.

Enjoy. I sure as hell did.
