New York Undercover - You Get No Respect

Posted: 09 Feb 2009 02:30 PM PST

Here's Season 1, Episode 17 of 90's popular police drama New York Undercover. Starring Malik Yoba as Det. J.C. Williams & Michael DeLorenzo as Det. Eddie Torres, NYU is notable for being the first police drama on American television to feature two people of color in the starring roles. Det. Torres and Williams are two undercover detectives in New York City's 4th Precinct who are assigned to investigate various crimes and gang-related cases. The program is also known for its hip-hop oriented targeted audience as it normally would feature a hip-hop soundtrack.

Aired on February 9, 1995, "You Get No Respect" focuses on the murder of a rapper killed at his group's show, when after all, his partner might be behind the murder. This episode is mainly known for its major hip-hop appearances of Sticky Fingaz, Treach, Notorious Big, MC Lyte, Yo-Yo, Doctor Dre & Ed Lover. Notorious Big performs his 1994 hit "Juicy" at the end of the episode. The episode also features a new unheard track from Sticky Fingaz(as Khalil) titled "You Get No Respect". It's played throughout the episode but it hasn't been released anywhere else. I'd like to hear a full version at it sounds like a track that could have been on "All We Got Is Us". I love the part when when Sticky is rhyming!
