1980s Now

1980s Now is a weekly examination of the importance of 80s pop culture and its continued influence today. We demonstrate that nostalgia alone doesn’t account for the contemporary fascination with our favorite decade. Instead, we share personal experiences and interview experts--including icons from 80s music, movies and TV--to demonstrate the “era of greed” bore the greatest moments in movies, music, television and sports. The show is equally entertaining and informative. (80s is aka '80s.)

Will and Kat speak with law professor K.J. Greene about the impact of copyright law on 1980s hip-hop. Did the lack of clarify in the law allow hip-hop to flourish in the 1980s? Did the court rulings in the late 1980s and since forever change hip-hop (for the worse)? Email us your thoughts to will@1980snow.com.
