rip scott la rock

[martymar74]

Remember listening to this regularly on WHPK in Chicago but then I never heard it play again for like 20 yrs. Typed in the hook in a google search and I got this! Thank you so much for posting this, taking me back to my early high school days.....

[mattbell28]

This was the shit when I was in high school...This was NY but was hitting in Chicago!!!

[JayTronik]

Man I love this song. I love Hip Hop. This take me back to when you had to have lyrics to get respect as a Emcee.

[Wutangquan]

Scott La Rock RIP. Respect to the teacha of hiphop

[Alphahydro]

The original didn't have the message referring to Scott. I removed mine with Sound Forge.

[kuzzinkenny]

imagine scott la rock was still here what would hiphop be like?

[universallordgator]

This song was number 1 on WBLS for like 6 weeks. It was mixed with Keith Sweat's "Make It Last" instrumental. My homeboy from the Bronx brought this all the way to Orlando, FL. I was an outcast in Florida, because no one back then was checking for underground hip hop. I miss those days. If anybody has the radio mix, post it!

[run666]

@universallordgator i got the mix somewhere on my cassettes, ill look for it. its mixed with andrew dice clay on the mix with it from either BLS or kiss fm with red ALert or chuck chillout.. it must be kiss fm cause in those days krs was feuding with mr magic from BLS

[soundsfromnothing]

(continued) like when he says "The girls be looking meaner, The cars be looking sweeter/ carry bigger gun, trigger people for fun." To think, he basically shook everything up then! The only one who outdid him (and COMPLETELY changed everything) was Rakim. Amazing!

[run666]

@soundsfromnothing NO DOUBT

KRS AND RAKIM OWNS FUCKIN HIP HIP THEN AND NOW IN MY MIND

[soundsfromnothing]

YES!

[soundsfromnothing]

KRS 1's rhyme patterns were so ahead of his time! He helped to usher in newer styles. He's kind of like the transition between Run D.M.C. & Rakim.

[kuzzinkenny]

scott la rock would have been the best producer and deejay he was the fucking man. if anyone reading this got some scott la rock foottage please share it.

[bandrok1]

Damn, I wonder what kinda beats Scott la rock would have evolved into doing if he hadn't gotten killed. This one definetitely has a different style from alot of his others.
