(watch in HD) EXCLUSIVE PTBTV / Pushin' The Bay TV interview featuring Chuy Gomez of 106.1 KMEL, Part 2 of 2 - interviewed by Ray Luv & Emcee T; on location at KMEL studios. Wake up with Chuy in the MORNING!!! Chuy's nearly 10-year run on KMEL is one of the longest in the Bay Area and a rarity on youth-oriented urban stations.
CMC Television is programmed like radio, but with pictures. Of course, it's really nothing new. Situation comedies, soaps, action, drama, news, sports, game and variety shows, indeed NBC, CBS, and ABC, all originated on radio. Just as radio turned to records when television and FM fragmented the radio audiences, television and even the internet and wireless turn to music for entertainment. This is not the music of the old American Bandstand, Ed Sullivan ,and traditional TV variety shows. This is music video, records with pictures.
Today, virtually every popular song is available in video. All the major record companies, as well as small independent producers solicit CMC to receive air play on this important promoitonal outlet. The vast CMC music video library exceeds 30,000 titles.
CMC is unlike all other music video offerings from the national cable networks, video clip sties, or wireless. CMC is truely radio with pictures. Like successful music radio, CMC is local and live. CALIFORNIA MUSIC CHANNEL serves the San Francisco Bay Area on privately owned, full power, independent, KTSF-TV San Francisco-Oakland-San Jose. KTSF is broadcast over the air on crystal clear digital channel 26.1 with 2.5 million watts of power. The signal is carried on all Bay Area cable systems primarily on Comcast Cable channel 8.
For Bay Area radio listeners, Chuy Gomez is hip-hop.
The DJ is No. 1 among younger listeners, ages 18 to 34. What makes him so popular? It could be his boundless energy, strong local ties, longevity and an outgoing, approachable personality. But the thing that resonates with listeners is his street credibility, said Marcos Gutierrez, a lecturer in broadcasting at City College of San Francisco and a former DJ.
"He knows what happens in the street; that's his forte," Gutierrez said. "He can't lose that edge, that hunger, and is very conscious about what is said and what is happening in the street and in music. Plus, he uses the proper words to reflect that."
Gomez lives the music from sunup to sundown - his morning show on KMEL-FM (106.1), an afternoon music video program on the California Music Channel, gigs at nightclubs and weekend promotional appearances.
All this with four hours of sleep and a smile.
"It's the same music, but it's the people who make every day different," Gomez, 33, said. "It's people that smile, that's what makes me enjoy what I do."
PUSHIN' THE BAY TV (PTBTV) is the most informative, up to date, and entertaining resource for classic Bay Area hip-hop. Founded by artist/entrepreneur Emcee T in 2006 PTBTV has consistently delivered thought provoking and retrospective interviews with veteran Bay Area artists, as well as rare insight to and behind the scene footage of legends such as Tupac Shakur and The Notorious B.I.G.

Sobrante Park is located in East Oakland CA, separated from the rest of the city by railroad tracks and industrial neighborhoods. It was built shortly after World War II, and was one of the first suburban-style working-class black neighborhoods in the city of Oakland.
In the 1980s the neighborhood became a center of crack cocaine dealing. A large gang from the neighborhood gave itself the nickname, "11-5" (or "11-500") which refers to the section of California State's legal code for drug crimes. A memorial to 32 men and six women members of the gang who have been killed since then (as of 2002) was painted on the basketball court in Carney Park, a local park named after a young man from the neighborhood who died in the Vietnam war.

PTBTV Exclusive, never before seen video of RAY LUV, SHOCK G (Digital Underground) and 2PAC aka Tupac Shakur. Circa 1991.
The band's leaders are Greg Shock G Jacobs and hype man Humpty Hump. Jacobs spent most of his youth in New York City and southern Florida. Heavily influenced by the various Funk bands of the 1970s, Digital Underground sampled their music frequently, which quickly became a defining element of West Coast rap. Their alternative status owes much to their unabashedly spaced-out image, which lay in contrast to the gangster rap that most west coast acts focused on. The group's original image was set up to be a tribute to social activists The Black Panthers, but when Public Enemy became a prominent band, Jacobs chose to take the group's image in a more whimsical direction, that of an updated Parliament-Funkadelic for the hip-hop audience. Jacobs designed detailed album covers and cartoon-laced liner notes, an homage to Parliament-Funkadelic album designs. Digital Underground is also notable for launching the career of member Tupac Shakur.
The band also appears in the movie Nothing but Trouble, directed by Dan Aykroyd.
Since the success of Sex Packets (and subsequent releases) the group had been touring for nearly 20 years straight. Thousands of live shows included many overseas tours and a near non-stop U.S. schedule. While the group's origins are in the San Francisco Bay area, touring has taken Digital Underground to every corner of the United States from major markets like Los Angeles and New York city, but also countless smaller suburbs. After twenty years of tour dates, Shock G announced that the group would officially disband in March 2008. Shortly after that announcement was made, the group also confirmed that their May 2008 album ..Cuz A d.u. Party Don't Stop! would be their last studio effort.
Tupac Amaru Shakur (June 16, 1971 September 13, 1996), also known by his stage names 2Pac and Makaveli, was an American rapper. In addition to his status as a top-selling recording artist, Shakur was a promising actor and a social activist. Most of Shakur's songs are about growing up amid violence and hardship in ghettos, racism, problems in society and conflicts with other rappers. Shakur's work is known for advocating political, economic, social and racial equality, as well as his raw descriptions of violence, drug and alcohol abuse and conflicts with the law. Shakur was initially a roadie and backup dancer for the alternative hip hop group Digital Underground. Shakur's debut album, 2Pacalypse Now, gained critical recognition and backlash for its controversial lyrics.
Shakur became the target of lawsuits and experienced other legal problems. He was later shot five times and robbed in the lobby of a recording studio in New York City.
On September 7, 1996, Shakur was shot four times in a drive-by shooting in Las Vegas. He died six days later of respiratory failure and cardiac arrest at the University Medical Center.

PTBTV aka Pushin' The Bay EXCLUSIVE! In this exclusive / raw video (Part 1 of 2), Mac Mall brings the Pushin' The Bay staff to Hawaii. This is PART 1 at Waikiki Beach, with footage at the Too Short Concert & Pro Bowl Weekend.
Waikiki is a neighborhood of Honolulu, in the City & County of Honolulu, on the south shore of the island of Oahu, Hawaii. Waikiki Beach is the shoreline fronting Waikiki.
The neighborhood extends from the Ala Wai Canal (a channel dug to drain former wetlands) on the west and north, to Diamond Head on the east. The name means spouting fresh water in Hawaiian for springs and streams that fed wetlands that once separated Waikiki from the interior. Waikiki has long been a place of relaxation. In particular, the area was a retreat for Hawaiian royalty in the 1800s. Much like the locals and tourists of today, Hawaiian royalty enjoyed surfing at Waikiki on early forms of longboards. Although not royalty as his name might suggest, Duke Kahanamoku, a local surfer born at the turn of the century and credited with popularizing the sport of surfing, is immortalized in a statue near the main strip of the Waikiki Beach. The statue, along with the numerous lei visitors to the beach place in the statue's outreached hands, can be viewed in real-time through the Waikiki Beach Webcam.
In professional American football, the Pro Bowl is the all-star game of the National Football League (NFL). Since the merger with the rival American Football League (AFL) in 1970, it has been officially called the AFC-NFC Pro Bowl, matching players in the American Football Conference (AFC) against those in the National Football Conference (NFC).
Unlike most other sports leagues, which hold their all-star games during the halfway point of their respective regular seasons, the Pro Bowl is generally the last game played at the end of the NFL season. The first Pro Bowl, featuring the all-stars of the 1938 season, was played on January 15, 1939 at Los Angeles's Wrigley Field. The game was then played at various venues before being held at Aloha Stadium in Honolulu, Hawaii for thirty consecutive seasons from 1980 to 2009. The 2010 Pro Bowl will be played at Dolphin Stadium, the home stadium of the Miami Dolphins and host site of Super Bowl XLIV, on January 31, the first time ever that the Pro Bowl is held before the championship game.
Through the 2009 game, the NFC leads the series 2019.
Editing & Production by Shaun Tai for SHAUN TAI Films, 2009.
