Young MC reminisced about the pivotal moments in his career, emphasizing how "Bust a Move," "Wild Thing," "Funky Cold Medina," and other notable hits changed his life forever with just ten hours of work. Emerging as a critical voice in the late '80s and early '90s, Young MC expressed pride in an era that significantly shaped West Coast hip-hop.

Growing up in Hollis, Queens, he was immersed in a vibrant music scene and honed his craft alongside legends like Run-D.M.C. Despite challenges, including adapting to American culture and industry expectations, Young MC's commitment to authenticity helped solidify his status as a hip-hop pioneer.
