Wow, event the video on Youtube was from February 2006, must be one of the oldest videos there.
My first attempt to load the video was met with an ad so I killed the yt app on my phone. I’m assuming this is the one narrated by a fellow with a deep voice and an acetate record. Timing would be about right. If so, this is a phenomenal look at the evolution of its place in music that I also was going to link in this thread.

Music history.

Deep voice person is Nate Harrison, you can also watch it on archive.org: https://archive.org/details/NateHarrisonCanIGetAnAmen
