The Bridge
In 2006, Matthew Tollin, formerly of NYC TV, who had gotten to know McDaniels because of the station's longstanding association with Video Music Box, introduced him to the station's then-General Manager, Arick Wierson. Wierson proposed that McDaniels utilize his robust repository of original hip hop classic videos to develop an "old school" music video program showcasing early rap videos from the 1980s.

Famous quotes containing the word bridge:
“It launch’d forth filament, filament, filament, out of itself,
Ever unreeling them, ever tirelessly speeding them.
And you O my soul where you stand,
Surrounded, detached, in measureless oceans of space,
Ceaselessly musing, venturing, throwing, seeking the spheres to connect them,
Till the bridge you will need be form’d, till the ductile anchor hold,
Till the gossamer thread you fling catch somewhere, O, my soul.”
—Walt Whitman (1819–1892)
“Poetry is not only dream and vision; it is the skeleton architecture of our lives. It lays the foundations for a future of change, a bridge across our fears of what has never been before.”
—Audre Lorde (1934–1992)
