  • IS THAT YO MTV RAPS!!!DR.DRE. ON THE WHEELZ OF STEEL?

  • I remember when I used to catch the PATH from East Orange to see ah peep show or two for ah quarter...I was dumb mad when the window closed in like 5 secs!!! LOL LOL Those were the days!!

  • OK, I remember my older cousins blasting this to a homemade beat box. They would walk down the street with this song blasting! That was early/mid 80's. To me, that was the best time of my life in those days,

  • MAN thats one cross eyed mutha fucker in the red and black sweats . funny looking people in new york

  • And it's like that and that's the way it is ! WHUH!!

  • dis shit go hard as of right now in my trunk

  • This joint brings back a lot of good memories & actually one of my son's favorite too...He recently heard it on an episode of Everybody Hates Chris...Tripped out when he heard it on my iPod...

    You know it's real music, then the lyrics can relate nearly 30 years later!!!

  • o this shit is music u all

    

  • no drugs, no bitches, no cars...wait this ain't hip hop....YES IT IS MOTHERFUCKERS!!!!! THE REAL HIP HOP!

  • @HeavenForYourEars -Stop brah please stop! that's funny as hell. You're definitely right tho. These brainwashed,pre-school rapping,materialistic,gun packing,saggin jeans wearing,shitty beat producing thugs of the (2000's) have killed true hip-hop & rap. It's not even about talent today,it's about image. That shows just how fucked up society has become. Technology has made these punk motherfuckers lazier,soft, uncoachable,uncontrollable,unt­eachable. The masses of sheep are growing. It's sad. 1luv

  • @str8outtatexas1 yeah bro. this new generation of kids don't know what music is..all they know is that house and techno shit and they think rap is all about cars, money and bitches. when i see them i star laughing. but it's sad cuz they support the wrong rappers. they should support nas, scarface and rappers that are still kickin old school and they are still alive. u should check out Pete Rock's new album. it's sick it's called "Monumental" we all should support REAL HIP HOP!

  • @HeavenForYourEars I definitely check it out for sure. Good looking out brah.

  • @str8outtatexas1 thanx homie.glad u like it.and check out my channel.u will like.that's fo sho! keep in touch. peace bro!

  • Still actual! What people do for money...

  • records like this is why i love hip hop today! But not today's hip hop

  • REAL MUSIC! EVERY COOKOUT U COULD HEAR THIS PUMPING EVEN IN A BOOMBOX IN NYC!

  • Wow!!! I remember this joint from the 80's on my brother's beatbox!!

  • notice the Adidas vintage hat if only if I could find the exact one, its down by law.

  • earl social conscious tracks if you listen to the beat it sound close to freestyle like diamond girls in the beginning.

  • we danced to songs that had messages...imagine that...nowadays....UGH!!!

  • This song was one of the greatest rap songs ever!! One of my childhood favorites.

  • Classic!!! Thanks for uploading this high quality video. So many memories of old-school NYC and the breakdance moves I used to do so well!!!

  • I used to mix this one in all the time back then - and I just brought it back out this summer. Paul Cameron's mix with Look of Love Dub inspired me to buy it in 1984. My only complaint was the sound quality seemed so quiet compared to other tracks. The only place you could find tracks like this back then in The Bay Area was a record store at the Oakmont Mall. Anyone remember the name?

  • great quality video for a great song!!  thanks!!

  • Awesome song people do the obvious and the unthinkable for money!!! Brilliant but true song!!! FAVORITED!!!

  • My dad used to play this song back in the 80's in his car and now I'm listening to it. This song is way better than the kind of crap rap they call songs now. I've been listening to this song ever since I was 6 and now I'm 12. Just goes to show these songs are better.
