Oh my!
I remember when this live performance of MC Hammer’s hit “Do Not Pass Me By” came on television in 1992– it was MAJOR in my house because Tramaine Hawkins was being given significant mainstream attention on the American Music Awards.
Now, I look at it and I’m like “WHAT THE WORLD?!” LOL
The significance of it is still great– at the height of his success, MC Hammer had two singles with a gospel message– “Pray” and “Do Not Pass Me By.” The latter featured the legendary Tramaine Hawkins on the hook. That’s huge.
But this here choreography nearly took me out this morning!
Check it out (apologies in advance for the poor video quality in the beginning… it clears up early on, I promise)–
Who remembers that?! And by the way, is it just me, or is the arrangement STILL hot to this day?! Woww….
