In TOP BILLIN', Bill reflects on his time at MTV during the 90s, where the cable music channel was at the epicenter of pop culture. Bellay recounts his legendary interviews with Tupac, Biggie, and Kurt Cobain, to ultimately befriending Janet Jackson, to coining the infamous term "booty call" on HBO's Def Comedy Jam. Bellamy broke color and class barriers during his time as a staple on MTV, appearing on the network four times a week of numerous MTV programs, including MTV Jamz and MTV Beach House. TOP BILLIN' provides an exclusive, all-access backstage pass to conversations with some of the decade's biggest artists, the best of the 90s celebri-tea, nostalgia, and insights on what it meant to be a tastemaker during one of the most exciting and innovative moments in music and American pop cultural history"-- $c Provided by publisher. 505 0 $a Prologue -- The Making Of A Bill -- Live Mic -- It Started With A Booty Call -- Tuned In And Turnt Up: MTV Daze -- Rap Legends -- Paying It Forward And Backward -- No Brakes -- Messy Reality: Spring Break And The Beach House -- Rock The Vote -- Y2K Boom And Bust -- The Big Move: Going Hollywood -- Timing Is Everything -- Priorities -- Shot Caller: My Way -- Making It Through -- My Father's Son. 600 10 $a Bellamy, Bill, $d 1965- 650 0 $a Comedians $z United States $v Biography. 650 0 $a African American actors $v Biography. 650 0 $a Video jockeys $v Biography. 650 0 $a Nineteen nineties. 600 17 $a Bellamy, Bill, $d 1965- $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01591850 650 7 $a African American actors. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00798998 650 7 $a Comedians. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00869077 650 7 $a Nineteen nineties. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01037803 650 7 $a Video jockeys. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01166446 651 7 $a United States. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204155 655 7 $a Autobiographies. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01919894 655 7 $a Biographies. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01919896 655 7 $a Autobiographies. $2 lcgft 700 1 $a Smith, Nicole E., $e author. 776 08 $i Online version: $a Bellamy, Bill, 1965- $t Top billin' $d New York : HarperCollins, 2023 $z 9780063237643 $w (DLC) 2022043081 941 $a 4 952 $l SFPH074 $d 20240314025133.0 952 $l TDPH826 $d 20230621011106.0 952 $l TCPG826 $d 20230621010359.0 952 $l SAPG074 $d 20230505010312.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=288DB0F0EB0A11ED895B35C65DECA4DB 994 $a Z0 $b LJWInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
