ANNI ARCHIVE: PARTY FOR YOUR RIGHT TO FIGHT THE FUTURE

In this classic shot from The Beat's Summer Jam, many summers ago, hip-hop icon Chuck D shows Michelle S. (then at KKBT) a cassette featuring his uncanny predictions about where they'll both be in the summer of 2016: he with the barnstorming band Prophets of Rage and her, sadly, raging against fate as she toils in the HITS cesspool. Speaking of which, this vintage tableau was brought to you by the HITS 30th Anniversary Issue, which will be spitting its awkward verses in your face very soon.
