KRS One - Stop the violence

[BoxingBeatsAndRhymes]

Kris is no joke

[NadiaNunn1]

WorldWide Boogie Down Productions are the Freshest

[Darkmanskin]

What's the solution, to stop all this confusion? Rewrite the constitution, change the drug which you're using Rewrite the constitution or the emancipation, proclamation We fight inflation, yet the president's still on vacation- Da blastmaster

[awms9864]

This bassline came out of everybody's car back in the day!!

[pasky123]

yo ,hip hop is alive, get your facts straight. you might not be included?

[DaveWBedford]

I remember these blokes did a "Stop the Violence" march thing in the late 80s. They were all beaten up by a passing mob of bikers. The demo had to stop and we had to go home.

[EVILPANDA00117]

How can he write this song when he wrote somany violent songs example:9mm goes bang! I like this good old hip hop ps I'm 11 why was I born in 2000 I wish I was born when they made real songs like this eminent only talks about killing and gangsters ps gangsters always die and what does he know about burnt a gangster he's a rich guy when the last time he got chased by the cops never? That's what I thought...

[kcmo68]

@EVILPANDA00117 KRS1 did not write this song. I did. Robert Wheeler from Kansas City MO. KRS1 sang the song because he could rap. You can hear me in the background sayin ' "Stop the Violence". This is why this song sound so different from anything else KRS1 did. KRS1 acknowledged this on Sirius Radio in an interview, which I actually heard. lol They asked him about this song and he said "some cat from Kansas City wrote it, Robert Wheeler".

[Terror350]

@kcmo68 link the interview n ill believe it lol

[nljuggalo]

@kcmo68 Great job on it.

[hiphop4life24678]

[PREACHA68]

1 OF THE TOP 5 RAPPERS OF ALL TIME ! HIM & RAKIM GAVE YOU FLOW & KNOWLEDGE ! NOT BITCHES & HOES MANSION & CARS ! THESE NEW SCHOOL RAPPERS ARE WACK ! I USE TO LOVE HIP HOP ! I WAS APART OF THE LATE 70'S-96 AFRTER 96 IT STARTED ITS DECLINE & SPIRALED INTO NOTHINGNESS !

[TheWaynelds]

@PREACHA68 I know, it's fucked up that biggie, pac, big L, and eazy e all died or got murdered. damn why cant some one shoot lil wayne or soldier boy.

[Makiba08]

@PREACHA68 The music industry downgraded Hip Hop into money, hos, bitches, cars, homes, riches etc....I am with you....Hip Hop was about knowledge to wake up our community as well as wakening the world to the conditions in our neighborhoods....the music industry downgraded it to only a part of our society....guns and violence....shame.....we should have tried to protest it

[trancis36]

I have to admit... I loved Hip/Hop 25+ years ago and then came out as a gay man and never felt safe again... I always have been respectful of everybody and would never hurt anybody...

Maybe hip/hop can redeem itself... Can it ? I have a dream!

[josephelliott1]

[doriftodorifto]

@bobstevefrank123 you clearly know have never heard real hip-hop if you think its all about sex violence and drugs.

[bobstevefrank123]

Stop the violence? Violence is 1/3 of hip hop. Sex, violence, drugs.

Violence is 1/3 of all music and movies for that matter. It's just that in hip hop, rappers actually carry it out.

[BakerBadBrains]

[MisterCoswell]

[gtur007666]

KRS IS THE MAN

[mainface]

you suckerrrrs!

[champ3660]

Oh shit man, if you listen to Blackstar's song Definition. there's a hook that goes, one, two, three, mos def and talib kweli, we rock it to the tip top best alliance in hip hop, Y-O. and then one two there, it's kinda dangerous to be a MC, they shot tupac and biggie, too much violence in hip hop Y-O.

I never knew that it came from krs one lol.

[prospect42191]

@champ3660 Yea its like the line ¨Manhattan keep on makin it, Brooklyn keep on takin it! KRS One is one of the few artist who can truly claim hes influenced most rappers after him

[Rockvoxxx]

Where's the auto tune vocals?. oh yeah, THIS is real hip hop!

[MisterCoswell]

hahaha soooo true

[reddemon242]

@skeletorphd bellend.

[reddemon242]

@skeletorphd BELLEND.

[MyTank1970]

[songotenz02]

THIS IS HIP HOP!!!

[rogeriojustica]

NOTA 10 B.D.P.

[LoneAmerican]

After seeing KRS. I gotta take back saying rap artists have no talent.

[cinzahno]

i think he smoke weed now the song from channel live and krs one mad ism!??

[pdm146]

does Krs smoke weed ?

[camdadydizle]

y does it matter if he does or not

[pdm146]

it doesnt at all i've just always wondered about it

[hayeder]

good question, I wonder. I don't think he does yano.

[Hiphopisntdead1]

almost everybody smokes

[oryanquest]

I am so glad I was born when Hip Hop was still fresh...Not like this wack shit of today...

[lbowd7]

Tuff Track!!!

[marcs114]

kmar est la encore

[eMCeeHead]

This song was fuckin amazin on Hardcore Worldwide!

[manvoltaire]

KRS walks the streets 4eva!!!

[mrstep2me]

88 had to be the pinnacle of Hip Hop.

[spongejon98]

I mean hes the best

[spongejon98]

krs one won the best

[3rdSupreme]

I believe that he was speaking in the third person my friend. Example, I can tell an entire story about how I am a murdering fiend but It's up to you to understand that I'm only speaking from the perspective of a murderer. It is also up to you to understand that I am not promoting murder but giving you that view point so you can understand how this happens.

[tedhuntington]

yeah stopping the violence is the smartest path.

[Werd2thaWyze99]

Yo, he speaks about this. it is STORIES he is telling. not advocating for them. listen to the meaning behind the words. You need to understand to pass judgment. Educate yourself.

[prolym]

no one was rapping like this until this record dropped. do not be used/abused by the frauds out there.

[boudachrist]

goooooood

[mrstep2me]

Hip Hop at it's very peak!

[arzell]

So that's where Mos Def & Talib Kweli got their hook from for their "Definition" song. I learn something new about hip-hop every day. Yes, yes, y'all

[meatspinnage]

Yeah. Also, they sampled Boogie Down Production's "Remix For P Is Free" as well, in that same track. Clearly throwing back to that classic album. Great stuff.

[GuitarMasta0611]

its also in a fugees song

[esdj23]

and in a blackstar song (talib kweli/mos def)

[hayeder]

yeah thats a sample kinda thing tho innit

one, two, three mos def and talib kweli

its on definition i think

[chookolingo6]

redefinition..i think

[snowy8u2]

its on both but stop the violence started it

[backinthadayz]

O M G!

JUST LISTEN!!

[ImmynimmyX]

krs-hip hop's philospher and teacher

[Mecobaby7]

My man KRS-1. Thank you for this. One of my favorite rap artists.

Stop the Violence

[hiphopisknowledge]

no doubt by all means necessary classic album

[RealCherokee]

I remeber my parents having By all means necessary,they use to play this track all the time I was only 2 yrs. old now i'm 18 and enjoying this classic,getting away from this bullshit rap my generation is consuming near 20 years later

[RealCherokee]

This is that Ol Skool 88' Shit,I love this track
