#TBT Okay, so the year was 1990. For those of you too young to know, Black folks didn't always have an open channel to having their music videos played on television. We had Donnie Simpson, and the iconic Video Soul on BET. I had released my 'Ordinary Story' album, (yes, album!), for Virgin Records, to some critical success, but not much commercially. Then came the call that I would be "on the couch" with Donnie Simpson to debut the video to the second single, "Poor Elaine". This little Flint born, South Central L.A. raised kid had made it!!! And because of God's favor, I'm still makin' it! #OrdinaryStory #PoorElaine #VirginRecords #KippLife https://www.instagram.com/p/BpFfZo4lYYl/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1553ifa0eo3pw
