[bluebastardbb]

[UnleashedGraffixx]

Another great hit from Ed. Another funny video looking at it now. Somewhat James Bondish with the self-destructing tape. Why was he shooting a water gun? lol It was all so simple then. Salt N Pepa sample from Tramp, bangin beat...This was the cut.

[DeLarge123]

... so i shot him with the shotty and i jetted in the jet ! LOL

[meezee44]

@DeLarge123 1 of tha illest lines eva

[desmondruff]

CLASSIC!



[blazeboy06]

if james bond was black, this would be his theme

[zwatcher]

"special ed" that is a truly ironic rapper name

what an ace

[hennylo68]

@zwatcher Isn't it? Damn even names were well thought of and creative. I always thought that is in one of the best rap names ever. Now everyone one's name is lil or young.

[zwatcher]

@hennylo68

where i come from "special ed" is not what you want to be associated with

but thaks for the idea, maybe i'll become lil' young

[hennylo68]

@zwatcher Yeah nigga cause you gay, yeah you right you should be lil or young. His name is Eddie and he is special. So special Ed fits perfect.

[darthorpheus]

Jetted in the Jet....

[usblues100]

this is da shit!

[zwatcher]

@usblues100

sure is, somebody please flush

[usblues100]

@zwatcher put your vid up! I'll bet that would be a winner! LOL

[phatmanxxxl]

Lmao at the squirt gun....epic!

[DaGR8Twon]

i miss hip hop story telling like this

[Lagritigos]

When I listen to music today on the radio I often feel like vomiting.

[BeatBoxingBryan]

@Lagritigos  lol you should be a writer or somthing thats very funny

[webbloy2k]

Don't forget Scienz of Life, John Robinson, and MF Doom

[TolitoGangster]

Special Ed sold a few million of albums worldwide,he toured the world with his great music,he is real music artist that makes real music,he is one of the greatest rappers in music history worldwide,this is one of the greatest rap songs in music history,this song was a big top 10 rap music hit and a top 50 hit on the Billboard music charts here in the United States that was also a big rap music hit worldwide,this is what real rap music sounds like :)

[marleymarl35]

@TolitoGangster agreed,this is real music!!

[marleymarl35]

@TolitoGangster agreed this is hip hop

[TolitoGangster]

@marleymarl35 Thank you brother,I apreciate that,the music industry says it's losing money because of piracy, that's not true. The real reason is because today's music is awful and people like myself would not buy it. I only support professional rappers like of course Special Ed,A Tribe Called Quest,D Nice,Slick Rick,Pete Rock & CL Smooth,Eric B & Rakim,LL Cool J,Nas,Lighter Shade Of Brown,Mellow Man Ace,Bone Thugs,Run DMC,3rd Bass,Cypress Hill,REAL MUSIC! Real music from real people!

[onn1320]

lol! He fought him Flatbush style!

[eleesmith]

14 people failed the mission

[meezee44]

@eleesmith lu chin chin served 14 wack emcees

[Ringolero]

Time is the master! Classic material!

[Keatelite]

i dont know if this deserves a grammy or an oscar lol

[cpo2u]

When did rap music stop telling stories (including adventurous/humorous videos)? Man, I miss Special Ed and his generation of hip-hop?

[CboybackspaCe]

why doesnt this have at least 2 million veiws ?

[berlynn2]

i love special ed, im' a big fan.

[talkingsports]

OHHHHH MYYYYY!!!! this is good!!!

[diasporavisuals]

[SempaiMarc]

Now this is some old school music. Use to rock this back in the day.

[jwh1999]

14 people were sent on the wrong Mission

[richbumz]

@jwh1999 LMFAO GUD SHIT

[TheDrey35]

why r they dumb cause there aint no girls in bikinis and good looking girls throwin music? hip hop is dancing and emceeing apparently you don't understand the video

[NyGiant123]

Ha! The Uzi is a water gun lol

[miitube]

Videos were dumb as he'll back in the days.

[agentbl]

@miitube What the fuck are you talking about music videos were dumb back in the days? Explain yourself shithead.

[ggsweet1384]

One of the most underrated dopest jams ever. Bangs in the club every time 100% of the time without fail . When you hear that break...haters jus don't get it.

[jibbletjangle]

Good ol golden age hip hop. I was born in 1993 so unfortunately I'm growing up with the crap today (*cough*young money*cough*) but I will never stoop to today's level. Golden age and other 90s hip hop will always rule to me.

[ancrumq12]

This video is dope

[MrBito862]

Jetted in the jet

[CaveGuy2008]

Special Ed would blow a lot of these "talent less" rappers away today.

[notlob1976]

I bought this on 12" Vinyl when I was in high school. I miss this old story telling style of Hip Hop.

[thickjai18]

14 young money fans missed the like button lol

[Islandofbones]

the good old days when rap was fun and You didnt have to be a thug to sell

[TheDOLMET]

I actually heard this song in the CLUB, in San Diego. I couldn't beleive it, I almost fainted

[KaniHoodieAndTimbs]

I am on a mission to rid NYC of all of these unoriginal skinny jean wearing faggot son of a bitches

Fuck 2010

1990 > 2010

[mobb70]

@KaniHoodieAndTimbs You ain`t lying brah. Keep rockin those classic tims lol. They used to be like $99 and had a lifetime warranty hahaahh, good times man...

[papichulo2534]

@mobb70 Damn you aint lying. I stayed trying to convince my mother it was good deal considering the quality and craftsmanship. She never bought it. Lol

[rastasteve420]

@KaniHoodieAndTimbs i know exactly what you mean , they need to have some sense beat into them

[MrNapt]

@KaniHoodieAndTimbs peoples jeans were skinny in the 90s to?

[mobb70]

@KaniHoodieAndTimbs you aint lying brah.......

[77musica]

@KaniHoodieAndTimbs please do

[Killer6097]

Man I've been looking for this song FOREVER!!!!!!!!!

[steriodarms]

at :30 shes puttin in drugs into his drink lol

[wallyworld776]

14 dislikes are relatives of Lui Chen Chen

[cavemech1]

@wallyworld776 lol...dats some funny ass shit

[cavemech1]

special ed one of the most underated emcees ever.dude was basically a rap prodigy. really slept on when people talk about this era and great emcees...dude was the magnificent

[flameone1000]

@cavemech1 He got caught off guard by the change that was going on in hiphop during the mid 90's. Hiphop listeners were wanting rappers to get harder and harder, and unfortunately, he wasn't able to keep up with their demands. I can remember thinking how corny he sounded at the time. Like that Sam Cooke song says, "Change Gonna Come". And, unfortunately, it came to hiphop. Like most others, I got caught up in it, too! Now, I realize how much I miss this kind of hiphop.

[Larh124]

DAMN SPECIAL ED PUTTING IT DOWN! I MISS THIS ERA A LOT! I listen to classic's like this A LOT MORE than the shit we have today! I WISH I had a Time Machine!

[ms0487a]

Shit STILL goes hard!!!!

[akhan41]

One of my all time favorite rap videos.

[ykoopc]

Damn, this was the jam !!!

[amck72]

Special Ed was an excellent story teller....

[wallyworld776]

@amck72 This joint was possibly the most slept on story in rap history. Harmelss, non-threatening and funny. Yet still can't wait to hear what Ed says next.

[skinsphan26]

Just heard this joint in the whip on "Backspin" XM 65 and nearly crashed! Oh the memories! This track was, still is and will always be hot! It's unfortunate Ed never got his full props as an MC. Nothing like fighting "Flatbush Style" to get u out of jam...Hahahaha! Good call!

[JarrodsVideos]

Rap City was the shit wasnt it..........

[heatfilter]

These were the good ol' days where rappers were just having fun with their material.

[MjsDirtyDiana87]

lmao 14 ppl must be lil wayne fans haha i guess thet have an ear infection

[patsolo]

This Jam is so ill to spin. Always get's the bboys on the floor.

[dr23rdbuchanmd]

this is a mission not a small time thing

[toxicpimpsmack]

wow, this brings me back...i actually remembered all the words. and i just looked and i still have the cassette. talk about old school, im straight up old now

[kwolf43]

Its the old skool for sure dis was the shit back in the day.

[JIUP1990]

How can any 1 how really knows hip hop not give Special Ed his just due? His flows, in full sentences back when very few had the talent to do so made him great. He was way before his time. As far as hip hop today I can repect Lil Wayne's and Drake's clever rap styles. As far as the most underated MC today i wd have to say Cassidy. Now if you want to hear a cat with a grimey NYC style that happens to be from the south check Hell Rell. You wdnt even know he was from the south!

[BrooklynNYC777]

hahahahahaha

[maidenfan4life74]

OLD SKOOL SUNDAYS I LOVE IT...

[jackasses9092]

Lol james bond theme song at the end

[TheBBoyCompany]

I came to avenge for all the rhymes you stole!

[Robmorgan144]

I used to dance my ass off to this! Battlin Cats

[robertponsor73]

all of you are fucking retarded..hes far from a legend and this fool cant rap for shit!! get the fuck out of here with all that nonsense

[robertponsor73]

all of you are fucking retarded..hes far from a legend and this fool cant rap for shit!! get the fuck out of here with all that nonsence

[unorthodoxsurplus]

@robertponsor73

Lil Wayne fan I'm guessing?

[MrMLD72MLD]

♥ .

[KTHREE31]

SPECIAL ED iz LEGENDARY, a true ICON!

[MrRayDarren]

@MastrChief07 - LOL! Ur right bro. And I'm glad u made a distinction between real hip-hop and stuff that's played on the radio. There is good stuff out there, but you'll never hear it on mainstream radio or television. There is a conspiracy against intelligent hip-hop...and I'm sick of it!

[gemstyler]

I am so happy to see this!!

[MrRayDarren]

Golden Age of Hip-Hop(1987-1997)

Phase I: (1987-1992) From Eric B. and Rakim's Paid In Full (Aug. '87) to L.A. Riots (May '92)

Phase II: (1992-1997) from Dr. Dre's The Chronic (Nov '92) to Biggie's Death (March '97)

Don't believe me? Just do the research...

[damiononupsal]

@MrRayDarren AMEN BROTHA, i couldn've said it better

[MrRayDarren]

@damiononupsal- Thank you sir! The real hip-hop heads know what's goin on!

[Seany06]

Since when would a chinese dude be practicing Karate(ok, common'ish), yet also be a ninja(they didn't practice karate) and then on top be praciticing tiger style kung fu?? Such ignorance, pisses me off lol

Still, I'll let him off since it's an awesome song. :P

[dogwarrior54]

"so i shot him with tha shottie then i jetted in tha jet"

classic dayz of wayback!

[pbrown711]

Special Ed went in on this one!!!!!

[freddydred]

Is that the dude from UMCs dancing?

[MySlim30]

YEAH!!!!

[meljamel]

He killed the GUY!!

[dhwand]

Special Ed was the shit back then Real Hip Hop right here ! The 90's was that era !!!!

[dwalted]

Love this song. Fun video. This is hip hop greatness of yesteryear. Thanks for posting.

[K2AStarVision]

Check My Video "CakeWalk" if you want to see the dancer from this video. Dude still got skills in 2010.

[gothamjediknight]

I think back to when I was a little kid... and realize I had dope taste in music

[quest2k]

one of the all time classic hip hop tunes.

[pbrown711]

Ed ripped this one!!!!

[DirtyDDO]

One of my Favs

Great Shit

[demonslayerx900]

14 people missed the thumbs up.

[brkjeff]

this was when, in the hood, maybe 2 or 3 ppl on the block had cable. You would go to your friends house who had it and watch The Box all day. It would be a crowd and ppl would order the same videos over and over. I remember Another Bad Creation's Aiesha came on like 3 times straight! Lol

[deteesfinest]

@brkjeff oh my god was the box the shit though lol i remember aiesha 2 yeah they played that song to death that and mc hammer videos lol

[lkjkorn19]

Are there any Special ED songs in which he doesn't talk about himself?

[1robertpolson]

Loving this, what a great story teller, did you check out the mobile phone?

[chaotic86neutral]

Ironically enough, only Flatbush style works against a ninja.

[TheSeven45]

Threw on the trench, kissed the girl good-bye

She said, "Special Ed, don't go, you might die"

Started cryin and huggin on me, so I shot her

I said, "Sorry baby, but I gotta do what I gotta

[TheSeven45]

There's a tape in the mailbox between your doors

Take the tape from the box, and put it in yours"

I listened to the tape and my mouth just dropped

I picked up the phone, but the man hung up

It said, yo, 'this tape will self-destruct'

I pressed the deck, but the tape was stuck

Oh well, what the heck, I just cleaned up the mess

Opened up the closet, got the bullet-proof west

Loaded up the sawed-off, the double-barrel

The rambo knife with the hunting apparel

[alexan215]

I get goose bumps when I listen to classics like these.  AMAZING!!!

[EC14U2C]

lol, i LOVE the uzi squirt squirt!

[TheGeneralMoe]

alway's will be hot!!!

[fridge89]

He kick me on the floor just like i was a child i got fed up...I fought him FLATBUSH style!!!

[IHS7]

His First Album was a Straight up Classic.

[elementbeatbox]

Golden Age.......Classic

[stillthefnshow]

lol he stabs him as he wholes a uzi!! Then we go flatbush style lol

[toktuminow]

videos were even cheesier when mtv debuted in 1981. i skipped school to watch videos all day.

[tonyzackery]

I laugh every time I watch this video...so cheesy way back when...LOL!

[TheDuddaMan]

That was my favorite rapper and he's still in my top twenty tiger style the shit was wild lol

[thebox1976]

I laughed out loud at the part 'special Ed don't go you might die', she starts hugging him, so he shoots her. Hilarious, esp as he didn't even want to answer the phone as he was getting in there.

[sosahound83]

dope rhymes and funny at da same time

[soopasta13]

LOVE THIS TRACK!!! .....still bump it in my ipod @ the gym lol

[CJKnightThunder]

this is true hip hop, i was only 9 at the time of this song. Vintage specail ed right there

[esean821]

.....sorry baby, but I gotta do what I gotta

[MrHanzosword]

damn!!!! this is dope

[falodun]

you still got it. stay blessed.

[Mrklean333333]

You know what rap can go back to this, The rappers of this generation just have to change.

Check out my Music video on my youtube channel (mrklean333333)

[4realeh]

this is real hip hop man i miss these days

[moondog2323]

I pressed eject, but the tape was stuck [and then I threw it to the girl I was boning]. Go Ed!

[flyguy494]

Yo!...the James Bond cut on this song...make it SICK!!...:))

[flyguy494]

This is a mission'.... not a small time thing.....:))

[Randompzycho]

next time I pick something up I want to blast this shit

[pjthekilla]

"What the heck i just cleaned up the mess,

Opened up the closet got bullet proff vest"

Love this song

[wallyworld776]

One of the most slept on stories of all time. A fun ass story with good punchlines. Where is this in hip hop anymore. Just have fun with the music. Like Fat Joe said in a PBS special about rap: "I don't know why we can't come to work and just smile at each other like everyone else."

[DEFTFUNDAMENTALZ]

Ahhh the memories....

[exkimo64]

k-os did an interpretation of the first 35 seconds-ish on the song "Fantastique" (from the album Exit (2002))

[77musica]

New York flava, only in the NYC, Brooklyn, Bronx, Strong Island, Queens!!!

[BTD973]

[lordsoflightseeker]

The good old days of rap. Special Ed was the S.$%#.
