Leaders of the New School, "Case of the P.T.A."

The 2012 Brooklyn Hip Hop Festival hits Pier 3 of Brooklyn Bridge Park today!  From noon until 3:00pm, come out to the park for Family Day and some slick DJing.  From 3 to 8:00pm, luminaries and up-and-comers such as Freeway, DJ Scratch, Prodigy (from Mobb Deep) and Ana Tijoux will take the stage.  Headlining and hitting cleanup... the legendary Busta Rhymes, who will reportedly be joined by Q-Tip (last year's headliner), Rakim and Raekwon.  

Additionally, Busta will be reuniting with the Leaders of the New School, shown here in 1991's "Case of the P.T.A."  Enjoy!

Kool Moe Dee, "How Ya Like Me Now"

From 1987's album of the same name, this was one of many shots at LL Cool J (note the Kangol hat under the wheel of the car on the album cover). Perhaps more memorable for an impressionable youngster in the '80s was its pairing with Hakeem (or Akeem) Olajuwon highlights in the first NBA Superstars video.

Now brothers are riding me
Like a pony
I'm no phony
I'm the only real micaroni. 

Enjoy!
