Shame this was replaced with the crap rap of today.. don't get me wrong I know it is what people are listening to now but man the raps from when I was a kid were usually promoting self awareness and love and hope all the raps are nowadays are about murder sex and violence.. where is the self love and the respect for oneself and others?
@TheCEOMaker... thank you for the fond memories.. i truely miss the OLD SCHOOL traxs like this LEGEND TRAX. Im very happy to be able to stroll back down memory lane when the NYC/music in general held a special substance.. many were poor.. but we were RICH with originality & pride..the music was FRESH & our souls werent sold to the devil.. we partied for the love & fun this new music gave all..modern music industry needs serious help...has lost its FOUNDATION IMO....OLD SCHOOL 4 LIFE! 1LOVE..Port
@Xozona Close but wrong. Positive K sampled the same tune as the Nice And Nasty 3 did: A Taste Of Honey - Rescue Me (1980). The Funky 4 + 1 sampled it as well for That's The Joint (1980).
I was ten and admiring the more older guys like 16, 17, 18 in 1980. One of the guys LOOOVVVED blasting this song from his window!!! This song came to mind and had to go on YouTube to look for this 'Fresh' song!! OMG!! Thank you Mestizo63!!!
This song deserves it's props that no one ever gave it. Probably the best rap of all time. Great beat. Sick lyrics. And it makes a good sampled beat. They only made one song so you can't find anything about them online.
Pumpkin-king of the beats...profile records..i love that cut on the album pumpkin allstars and hope one day a documentary on artists that contributed to the movement but get little or no recognition in the industry would surface. bad boy-veronica...break boys..king kut...
Right?? it sounds like a song you want to blast in your car with the doors open, just sittin there chillin...
some people get mad when i say old rap is better. They dont know what rap is. those crap rapper listeners listen to old school and laugh. and i tell them they dont know what rap is!
To all those the positive comments from persons of this grassroot foundation time for Hip Hop & those that appreciate the sacrifices & music of that time, thanks. From TERRY TEE from this track. Our group was the 'TOUCH of CLASS' reprepping the Bronx New York back then & always.
a girl made a video one year of her and her friend fake fighting, when another group of friends imitated ot, making them look stupid. one of the girls was so upset she took the video off youtube and never watched it again, until one night her tv flickered and played her video, she committed suicide, because you read this you have to post it to 5 videos or else she'll kill you in your bed tonigh
real rap real bands real music this is when rap was fun and it was all about the party!! I miss those days! Old school rap is the best rap that was ever done! In my book!
fukin luv it!! hip hop aint the same,this had musicality to it,it had a musical purpose-definition of funk man,im going to smoke a joint to this and get lost in the music-anyone care to join??
Party People, This is Mexi-Ray from The Nice&Nasty 3. I was having a %#@%* up day. But after reading your comments, I feel like I just left the Stage@ the T-Connection! Thank u and God Bless, Whats up Charlie D
Peace! Mos Def a slept on oldschool classic, I still play this nearly 30 years lata! It's great to see these joint's being revived for the younger cats to enjoy!
This is Charlie Dee, I am on this record. I am glad our music is appreciated because we sure didn't make too much money back then. We did it for the love of the music and to have fun. We made this record back in 1978. All of my boys are doing okay. None in jail and all alive as productive citizens.
Thank you. I appreciate the love. I have some old school cuts that we never put out that would be hits today. I'm thinking about taking a chance and put them out to see what happens.
Dude. Thanks for this rap song. It is on my top 3 if not my #1 favorite of all time. You guys were awesome. The lyrics were just ultimate and just killed my brain man. You guys were definitely underrated TODAY. You guys s/b in the hip honors next year. But they don't know what real old school is. Thanks Mann. E.
Sorry to bust your bubble CEOMaker but this song is listed as being recorded in 1980. Sounds very similar to The Funky 4 who recorded their first record in 1979. The very first rap record was recorded by The Fatback Band with King Tim III in '79. That song was followed by Sugarhill Gang's Rapper's Delight still '79. Before that time no one who was doing what then became known as hip hop thought about actually going into a studio to record what we were doing. Please keep the facts str8.
theres a big difference between a RECORDED song and RELEASED song ...you can RECORD a song in 2010 and it can be released to the public in 2012 and it will say 2012 on the cd
OH MY GOD!! You are a JERK. People like you made this stuff stop being fun and I HATE to BURST yer bubble But people WERE doin' stuff like this BEFORE King Tim (Read Some Books...Or CAN you read??) By the way your name fits you...You ARE a KNOB!!!!!
OH MY GOD!! You are a JERK. People like you made this stuff stop being fun and I HATE to BURST yer bubble But people WERE doin' stuff like this BEFORE King Tim (Read Some Books...Or CAN you read??) By the way your name fits you...You ARE a KNOB!!!!!
@MrFlashBazbo@MrFlashBazbo@MrFlashBazbo I didn't mean to upset anyone. I am just disputing the claim that it was recorded in '78. There is no way that Pumpkin, the drummer on this record, did this in '78. His first recording was Rapping And Rockin' The House/ Funky 4+1 in '79. I don't have to read to know, I was there. I first SAW Kool Herc play in the summer of '74. Notice I said "what we were doing"
and you know it's his first how? C'mon now like you said yourself there is alot of rap history that has been unwritten. OK You and I are going to disagree with all this an I don wanna fight because my people (The Cherokee) Are going through a time of great mourning right now (Please google Wilma Mankiller to understand and p.s. I cannot spell)
@MrFlashBazbo First off my condolences. I was in Pumpkin's garage when he auditioned for Bobby Robinson, the owner of Enjoy Records. Pumpkin was unknown to the recording industry before then. It is your prerogative to disagree but I am speaking from first hand knowledge. The song is Dope, it can hang with the best of them. I just wish that the World was told the true history and not a rewritten one.
Hey Charlie!! I am Duane and I started Dee-Jaying in the Early Years when everyone took their shit down to the park and hooked the shit up to the park's electric..Fired up our BBQ and yelled at all the passer by "Come on Get yer Plate!!" Them's were the days!! Yep I had this in my Dee-Jay Bag and was a Floor Filler. Hey Charlie I'm glad I found this and hope you can post more of your jams!!
@TheCEOMaker One of the reasons I like older rap and hip hop is the love of music and the fun you can hear from the songs. And this is coming from a person who mainly listens to metal music. This song alwas brings a smile on my face.

Man...I love this!! Reminds me of my teenage years. This is when rap song were 8+ minutes long...took a while to learn the entire song...but if you did...you were the man!
