First The Fat Boys breakup, then Donnie Simpson leaves, now this. I hope they bring out an adult oriented program like Video Soul was, with songs from the Adult Contemporary charts, that would be dope. I haven’t watched 106 and Park in years probably 8 + years; I guess at some point I realized the show was for the youth.
