[VicVaselino1]

This is one of the greatest hip-hop tracks I've ever heard, in my opinion. Premier is, with out a doubt, the greatest. Guru's the perfect flow to match. This is the stuff legends are made of.

[cjmpo]

Come on! Gang Starr is when rap was a golden element of life. Show me a group/mc/dj, that can ever tell me otherwise. This group to me

[JIMZO1]

Why dont you tell us more,.Ha HA clever.

[leodungen]

DJ PREMIER IS SO NECESSARY!!!

[Wbigger]

Great video. Far too often rappers forget their roots. They don't give the respect to what got them where they are. The DJ, B-boy and graff heads came before the emcee, they put you on stage to hype the crowd and help rock a party. Now most of them are greedy and straight forgot they history, dont wanna share the light with any of the other elements of our culture. Respect to Gangstarr for always putting the culture first.

[JusticeIsTheBest]

think it was 2002-2003!!

[amrika5]

dope, gang starr for life

[betovalrey08]

that is dope..nothing else to say

[flordogueto]

Essa é pra dançar break...rs

[Beardo138]

Rap is not hip-hop. Rap is just a part of hip-hop. This encapsulates all facets of hip-hop culture... Graffiti writing, dancing, rapping, DJing.... Sooooo good.

[farttalk45]

hip hop was created by old rich freemasons. lol

[elchuythatsmycarnal]

This is TRUE HIP-HOP.  Fuk all the lil waynes, t-pains, and all those other dum shits that use wack as auto tune.

[davidt3400]

Flip that Ownerz 12" over Premier. The other side is better.

[LakeRafiD]

GangStarr is another one of my favorite rap groups. Bad brothers for sure. Guru & D.J. Premier forever! One love. Thanks for posting.

[tylercodyandguest]

the beat is SICKKK!!!!!!!!!!!!

[RighteousPaperTigers]

what year is this?

[buttmuncher100]

corectamoondo ur a smart motha fucka

[carwashnwax]

you gotta respect the pioneers of the industry. Hip hop wouldn't be what it is today without Rakim, nas, biggie, 2pac and so many others. That's why they are still talked about. The second column will be long forgotten when they are still respected. Music is has an evolution to it, even the one hit wonders know that

[F00dTube]

Surely you must be joking? Soulja boy??! Lil (faggy vocoder) Wayne? You are comparing T-Pain to Rakim!!? Flo (overnight mc) rida!!? Akon, with respect, is a singer. Timabaland is a producer. You are taking big names and comparing them with the last shit you've heard. Stop that please.

[3xp3dition13]

hahahaha you dont know rap.

this is real rap.

and timbaland is a producer.

dumbass

[IroncladOrange]

Nah this it more than rap. It's Hip-Hop

[buttmuncher100]

(ruthless gangster definition villin,leave ya shit un locked and he's stealin ,so call the police cause thats all u can do, he'll get away without leavin a clue) guess what that song is without searchin the lyrics?

[maxbusinesscredit]

[DaRkNiF3]

gangstarr are so lucky to have dj premier in their crew.

[venamc]

[StayingFreshForLife]

[smokinballa415]

primoFTW

[SOF2Marine]

Proness.

[gajtwmf]

im 15 and even i know hip hop suck theses days they try so hard to be something you not why be a gangsta when you can be yourself i understand sometimes you have fight protect whats yours but now they do unnecessary stuff lol rap about how good you are and not how shot somebody to death why rap about sealing crack when you can rap about cleaning the streets

[SacramentoKings23]

Because thats all u see on TV rappers talking about how cool gangs and shit are..when in reality anybody who has been in a gang and left will tell you how much it sucks ass..it will fuck up your life if you join a proper gang..say goodbye to any future u potentially had..all that shit is subtly brainwashing us..thats why this skillful shit should be played instead..

[stonenbone420]

+1 for Truth.

[jokamund]

NO FUCKING WAY THIS WAS FILMED RITE ACROSS THE STREET FROM MY HOUSE

Mine, red house on da left 1:27

Sry for being annoying.

[Calibigbud]

[jokamund]

UH OH

lk

[hippopotamus1995]

LMAO missed something huh

[JesseMacEachern]

black people rule. lol

[TongaDaDon01]

No they didn't kill it they just put their spin to it if you listen to all their underground unheard of shit is worth listening to. You see it's all about the money and thats why mainstream rap is so shitty. Everyone has to understand that people like different shit but i wouldn't say that mainstream killed hip hop and if you do believe that maybe you just killed hip hop with in you own self.

[roflDRG]

new age mainstream hip hop is in the process of ruining it. Especially southern rap. Where beats are no longer creative and intriquite like DJ Premier always proved to be the best at. And rappers like Lil Wayne with absolutely no talent in the lyrics and flow, anyone that thinks lil wayne is on a level even close to Guru, /laugh

[djnram]

gangstarr made hip hop

lil wayne and all dem fake bitches killed it

[Christschen88]

agree

[8illmatic3]

real talk, this group deserves all the money, not some no talent ass clown wayne

[vday123]

The gang kicks butt!!!!!!!!!!

[crazyplmrguy]

skills...

[BRYELLSON]

This comes from the albumTHE OWNERZ. The album is SICK. Lyrically on point by Guru- Gifted Unlimited Rhymes are Universal,production by PREMIER, it gets no fuckin better. Bangin album, very well put together from start to finish

[kevinb721]

[hobbsym21]

AYE FELLA...shame this kind of stuff aint coming out anymore

[H1MLA]

Actually bruv, it is coming out right now....but not on your mainstream radar. Listen, if you still live & breathe Hip-Hop as a culture, then you will know where 2 cop tunes like this in 2009. I take it that you are American?

I'm English from the UK & still buy shit like this on Vinyl records in 2009. Go 2 Fatbeats in NY & see for yourself, the shit is there 4 you 2 buy.

[hobbsym21]

nah english mate..u can buy stuff like this only because its still being sold..nobyd is like gangstarr tho really

[goingallout]

yep i remember it was 03, we used to play it on the GOING ALL OUT show here in LA. and it was fly.

[smalls469]
