In 1984, a musical show by the name of “ Kids Incorporated “ came on our TV sets. It featured 5 kids, who played different cover songs from all different decades. The show would go on a memorable 9 year one, that had a lasting influence on so many kids, which also played a part in launching the careers of stars such as Jennifer love Hewitt, Martika and of course Fergie.
The man who created this iconic show was Tom Lynch.
