 Notes  
     Despite their name, the Young Black Teenagers (YBT) weren't
     ethnically black at all - four of them were white, and another of
     Puerto Rican descent. The concept struck some in the hip-hop
     community as ridiculous and even offensive, but the group was
     sincerely attempting to pay tribute to the black culture they loved
     and identified with. What's more, they had the backing of Public
     Enemy and their production team, the Bomb Squad; in fact, YBT was
     the first act signed to Hank Shocklee's Sound of Urban Listeners
     label, founded in 1990.
     Young Black Teenagers were composed of MCs Knowledgable Child, First
     Born, ATA, and Tommy Never (the first three of whom all had DJ
     experience), plus full-time DJ Skribble. Knowledgable Child had
     previously worked as a live DJ alongside members of PE, which was
     instrumental in landing the group a record deal. They debuted in
     1991 with an eponymous album, which spun off several singles,
     including "Nobody Knows Kelli" (a humorous tribute to Married With
     Children), "Proud To Be Black," and "To My Donna" (which roasted
     Madonna for lifting the PE track 'Security Of The First World' as
     the basis for 'Justify My Love').
     YBT next moved up to MCA and released their biggest hit, "Tap The
     Bottle," which appeared on their 1993 sophomore effort, "Dead Enz
     Kids Doin' Lifetime Bidz". However, a falling out with the PE camp
     left the group in the lurch, and they eventually disbanded. DJ
     Skribble went on to greater fame in the late 90's as an MTV in-house
     DJ, appearing on a number of network productions while continuing to
     DJ at clubs around New York.
     Produced by Terminator X, "Tap The Bottle" was the lead single
     released in 1992 ahead of their sophomore album.
