  • what ass holes hate this song lik straight up hardcore song

  • @TysonArmageddonHBW95 you were born in 95, weren't you ?? Great to see you appreciate real music. I was 20 when this song came out. It always reminds me of early night summer days, watching in the sky and smoking fat joint.

  • my favourite gang starr song !!

  • BEZ DAC LI NY NY

  • Love this bassline!!! Guru's rhymes over Preemo's tracks are lyk a good meal with a dessert!

  • Man what i wouldnt give for a dj/producer like premeir

  • that 1 person wouldnt know hip hop if Guru jumped out his grave n slapped em with his microphone!

  • 3:04 is the best part

  • Better question is who ain't fuckin with this?

  • whose fuck n wit dis

  • nothin, thats how long you been frontin, i figured by now you have come up with somethin. Brings me back to high school.

  • Bloody legends this duo! Amazing lyrics, beats and messages.

  • @iwillknifeya - the message on this song in particular....

  • @foofermoe Well, as you should know (depending on whether or not you are a Gang Starr/Guru fan) it is another diss song at all those who thought that could trounce Guru and his talent as an emcee. Guru explains that he has the reputation (opening verses) and that people know he is not someone to be messed with/contested with lyrically as all he will do is crucify them and make them look like the "fake emcees" that they are. A lot of Gang Starr lyrics are based on such things & important messages

  • @iwillknifeya Actually, this is pretty much the only Gang Starr album where Guru attacks other "rappers" and "emcees" and criticizes them that they're not real enough. The other Gang Starr albums are more thought provoking and more critical of social issues than personal or musical ones.

  • @chonomakona he did alot in the ownerz too, but i see what you mean, very observant

  • @mcminnkey Very true and thank you =D

  • @iwillknifeya Yeah, his earlier stuff is more boastful and his later stuff is more political. I think it was a way to establish himself on the scene.

  • bassline is orgasmicly orgasmic

  • i'm gonna dissect ya brain for a minute, look at your puny ass world and what's in it... nothin, that's how long ya been frontin', i figured by now that you'd have come up with somethin'.... words to live by! drop the science, do the knowledge, and REST IN PEACE GURU! tremendous loss to the art of, and world of hip hop. thank you for EVRYTHING, "SON" (SUN)

  • GANGSTARR

    BLACK MOON

    TRIBE

  • strawberry like short cake! my favorite dj of all time with one of the illest emcees. gangstarr cannot be touched.

  • quite ill : )

  • Yea just like bigghost27 said.. Guru and Primo were the illest duo !

  • Guru and Preemo were the illest duo

  • those were the days. hip hop died at the end of the 90's. classic tracks like this one will maintain

  • voll Bobel alta !

  • DOPE!

  • smashing

  • dope!!

  • G. ifted U. nlimited R. hymes U. niversal and DJ Premier complimented each other very well! The DJ provided the 808 and the lyricist MURDERED it. They give you some mental stimulation that you can move back and forth to. Gentlemen, all I can say is Thank You!

  • Premier? 808s? Lol wat?

  • I'm sayin'!! It's unexplainable!!

  • WELL SAID! A TRUE HIP HOPPER

  • guru & droppin gems on ya melon

  • smoke dank to this

  • classic

  • sometimes i wanna flip and clap a hole in their chest but i lay back....gangstarr is universal and itll remain forever!!!got all their albums and even when i turn 50 ill buy and bang gangstarrs hits!!!

    yet im 34...lol

  • oh man, shit like that makes you proud of listening to hiphop ^^

  • Coming for datazz...I forgot just how vicious Guru raped this track!

    Straight fire!!!

  • YES LORD! BODY BAGGED THE TRACK

  • With all the crap rap thats been out for 20 years now it's a travesty these guys never got the fame their talent deserves. These brothers created music from the heart. Not processed mainstream bullshit for the masses who only like what the media tells them is cool. Maybe they will get back together someday.

  • they still together, they just doing solo projects,but yeah,gangstarr are the reason these hip hop is alive,

  • YOU'RE DAMN SKIPPY , BROTHER..... Gang Starr deserves mad love.

  • @mikesmithsupersaiyan you speak the truth

  • i am readin ur comment, and a year passed by since you wrote it. i agrre with u broder they were one of the best true artists. guru is dead now:( RIP and he had no connection with dj premier for the last 7 years of his life, but they left somethin behind what lives forever.

  • @mikesmithsupersaiyan Makes me sad, that they'll never come together

  • @mikesmithsupersaiyan im actually tempted to dislike this for that last sentence. RIP GURU :'(

  • @AshleyPearce123 I wrote that over 2 years ago. I've followed Gang Starr since I first saw Just To Get a Rep and Who's Gonna Take the Weight over a decade and a half ago. Gang Starr might be the two most talented brothers to bless a mic and turntables. All of their albums are a must for anyone that loves real rap. Those who love talent and artistry. Guru, Keith Elam, Rest In Peace.

  • these guys are very underrated

  • one of the dopest beats all time !

    Guru and Premiere is the perfekt match !

  • ako stinkt

  • this shit is great

  • Aaaaah DOPE! THANKS for posting this up, one of the DOPEST Hip Hop albums EVER and this is one of THE coldest tracks on the entire LP. Primo working a scratching masterpiece after Guru's last bars...get the urge to break out and freestyle everytime I hear this trippy -ass beat....

  • bassline is so dope

  • @GoonBandit what else do u expect from premier?!

  • dopeness. yeah yeah.

  • Good shit

  • My favourite Gangstarr track... dope as fuck
