Single US 1985 on Eva-Tone Soundsheets label
Hip-Hop/Rap (Conscious)
The New York State Health Department distributed 50,000 copies of "One Dumb Move" PSA flexi in response to a survey showing alarmingly high alcohol, drug, and tobacco use among teenagers. If there's one thing that gets through to drunk, stoned, tar-hacking teens, it's the rap music. Of course, there was really only one man Governor Mario Cuomo could turn to for help: Professor of the Rap, Gary Byrd. The song as recorded is a little different than the version in the video, including two refrains of the song and one spoken-word breakdown by Gary Byrd explaining why he had to write it.
