    Long Running Outlet For Rap Music

    Rap City is the longest running music video show on cable that features rap music. While it's competitor, Yo! MTV Raps, mainly focused on all of the popular rappers, Rap City also included videos from up and coming underground rappers. The very first host of the show was comedian Chris Thomas. Since then, the show has been hosted by many different people, but the basic format of videos and interviews with rap stars remains the same.
