MC Hammer

Stanley Kirk Burrell (born March 30, 1962), known professionally as M.C. Hammer or "Ham Time" (and later, for a time, simply Hammer), is an American hip-hop recording artist, dancer, entrepreneur, spokesman and actor. He had his greatest commercial success and popularity from the late 1980s until the late 1990s. Remembered for his rapid rise to fame, Hammer is known for hit records (such as "U Can't Touch This" and "2 Legit 2 Quit"), flashy dance movements, choreography and eponymous Hammer pants. Hammer's superstar-status and entertaining showmanship made him a household name and hip hop icon. He has sold more than 50 million records worldwide.

A multi-award winner, M.C. Hammer is considered a "forefather/pioneer" and innovator of pop rap (incorporating elements of freestyle music), and is the first hip hop artist to achieve diamond status for an album. Hammer was later considered a sellout due in part to overexposure as an entertainer (having live instrumentation/bands, choreographed dance routines and an impact on popular culture being regularly referenced on television and in music) and as a result of being too "commercial" when rap was "hardcore" at one point, then his image later becoming increasingly "gritty" to once again adapt to the ever-changing landscape of rap. Regardless, BET ranked Hammer as the #7 "Best Dancer Of All Time".Vibe's "The Best Rapper Ever Tournament" declared him the 17th favorite of all-time during the first round.

    CFBT-FM

    CFBT-FM is a Canadian contemporary hit radio (CHR) radio station in the Greater Vancouver region of British Columbia. It broadcasts at 94.5 MHz on the FM band with an effective radiated power of 90,000 Watts from a transmitter on Mount Seymour in the District of North Vancouver. Owned by Bell Media, with studios located at Robson and Burrard in Vancouver, the station broadcasts a contemporary hit radio format branded as 94.5 Virgin Radio. The station's main competitors are CKKS-FM and CKZZ-FM.

    History

    The 94.5 FM frequency was originally assigned by a low-power temporary FM radio station to provide information on traffic conditions between Vancouver and Coquitlam, which received approval in 1998.

    The CRTC began the application process for a new Vancouver FM station in the fall of 2000. There were eleven prospective applicants, reflecting the fact that the 94.5 MHz frequency was the last remaining high-power FM slot in the Vancouver market. On June 5, 2001, Focus Communications was granted a licence to operate an Urban format. The station's call letters, CFBT-FM, were assigned in November of the same year, and an official launch date was set for March 4, 2002 as the second urban station in Canada. Test transmissions began in mid-February 2002. The station adopted a "soft start" launch wherein announcers and programming were gradually introduced over a period of several weeks. By mid-2003, the station changed to more of a rhythmic top 40 format.

    by: MC Hammer

    One mo' time, hey, I gotta get my, get my one mo' time
    One mo' time, hey, I gotta get my, get my one mo' time
    One mo' time, hey, I gotta get my, get my one mo' time
    One mo' time, hey, I gotta get my, get my one mo' time
    I'm goin' fo' mine, one mo' time
    I'm gettin' my goals accomplished while the others sit back and wind
    And none of y'all can fade me so don't even try
    'Cause I'm the best at what I do and I'm a tell you why
    So you see I'm too legit too ever quit
    I started gaining momentum when they put me in the mix
    You'll feel my power, the stage I'll burn it up
    So put it on the hammer, then people will burn it up
    To the records who tried to diss this is on yo face
    I'll turn this mutha out leave you lookin' disgraced
    Bet you can't touch and now you regret fo' calling
    Yourself a pet instead of something wet
    Now brothers went long, it's still the same song
    While people rollin' on, your crew is gone
    You know I got it started with a kickin' gold rhyme
    Suck as betta' pray 'cause it's hammer time one mo' time
    One mo' time, hey, I gotta get my, get my one mo' time
    One mo' time, hey, I gotta get my, get my one mo' time
    One mo' time, hey, I gotta get my, get my one mo' time
    One mo' time, hey, I gotta get my, get my one mo' time
    Check I peepin' over there if the fellows give me ten minutes
    I'll bet you I'll be in em' 'cause growin' on the high street
    Taught me how to get em', I grew on em'
    So tight I'm known to hight em' and quit em'
    See I step to her, she's mine in a matter of minutes
    It ain't how long you talk it's what you put in em'
    Spittin' this game so cold and you tellin' me
    That I'm not able to pick up this freak, well, you fail to see
    The hard nigga is what they call me
    And every year I'm at the player's balgee
    Whenever I'm next you can prepare to see a show
    And whenever it comes to breakin' it up
    You know I'm lettin' em' win the net
    And I'm the man in command, so I'm puttin' em' in their place
    And if she's lookin' for handouts then get outta' Hammer's Face
    I'm not the type to wine and dine but I'm freak to blow your mind
    So I guess I'm goin' fo' mine, one mo' time
    One mo' time, hey, I gotta get my, get my one mo' time
    One mo' time, hey, I gotta get my, get my one mo' time
    One mo' time, hey, I gotta get my, get my one mo' time
    One mo' time, hey, I gotta get my, get my one mo' time
    Hold now, take me to the bay
    I'm gainin' momentum from the 90's to the bay
    And everywhere I went, I made the people say
    Hey, I'm makin' em' all amazed in every phase
    And rap fools I gotta serve em' but this time
    The Hammer gotta hurt em'
    State to state after partyin' in Casinos
    Doin' and tryin' that, lougin' in Reno
    I got it started in Bang cock and rocked Barbados
    And watched Holy field know em' out in Vegas city
    After city I left the people in shock, you betta have believed
    I left the whole place rock and I love the way that the money
    Just rolls out, fifteen hundred cities every one of em' sold out
    Private jets, good times and bad times, suckas be tryin' to diss
    So I'm comin' with mad rhymes
    All of these things often come to mind
    But guess what y'all? Here comes the payback to her
    I'm doin' it one mo' time
    One mo' time, hey, I gotta get my, get my one mo' time
    One mo' time, hey, I gotta get my, get my one mo' time
    One mo' time, hey, I gotta get my, get my one mo' time
    One mo' time, hey, I gotta get my, get my one mo' time
    One mo' time, hey, I gotta get my, get my one mo' time
    One mo' time, hey, I gotta get my, get my one mo' time
    One mo' time, hey, I gotta get my, get my one mo' time
    One mo' time, hey, I gotta get my, get my one mo' time
    One mo' time, hey, I gotta get my, get my one mo' time
    One mo' time, hey, I gotta get my, get my one mo' time
    One mo' time, hey, I gotta get my, get my one mo' time
