Mark Anthony Neal Discusses Life and Legacy of James Mtume

'BNC News remembered the life and legacy of the late James Mtume. The Grammy Award-winning songwriter, record producer and musician is perhaps best known for chart-topping hits like “Juicy Fruit.” That 1983 masterpiece would end up being sampled by rap legend Biggie Smalls over a decade later. Dr. Mark Anthony Neal, the James B. Duke Distinguished Professor of African & African American Studies at Duke University, joins Marc Lamont Hill on “Black News Tonight” to discuss the monumental influence that Mtume has had on music and the culture.'
