DAMN GUYS YOU CAME IN A RAKIM'S VIDEO JUST TO SAY A FEW SHIT ABOUT THE BIKINIS AND THE STRINGS?SAY SOMETHIN' ABOUT RAKIM'S RHYMES!!!!BROTHA'S SO DOPE MAN HIS STYLE AND HIS LYRICAL LINES ARE UNTOUCHABLE!
@MCthugmike i've been here before, i know the lyrics from start till end, i know they are untouchable, so i don't have to comment on them, but what i can do is comment and teach kids that good music does not need SEX to be sold ... yeah they are girls in this video, but not not the sluts and hoes that show up in today's videos. why would you watch a lil wayne video, certainly not because he is really cute .... get my point?
this was made either in my last year of junior high or my freshman year in high school and i remember thinking the women in this video were HOT!!!!! thes bitches used to turn my little ass on!
people always say wayne isn't as good as the older rappers, well check my remix with Wayne, Pac, Rakim and Guru on my wall and you will see that Wayne is up there with the greats!
This was the early 90's still under the 80's influence. The censors were still in place. You'd have to wait a few years to see booty on TV. If you live in Miami or L.A. you already do. G-strings weren't ethical in '92. Not the girls fault.
ur too young. thats the problem. thats the problem. and the ppl who come on Vevo too... Never read such a stupid comment on a Clip like that before...
@ symcurl those ppl were not present at the time so they dont get to vote.....only if they truly go beyond their time and really listen what true hiphop/ rap is. I miss those days..... ty YouTube!
people only know this song from dance games when they should of known this ages ago before xbox 360 kinect and wii's were invented basically if your a person that listens to shit fake artits today then fukin hell that needs to change people are forgetting the real music
Classic! Rakim's rhyme schemes are peerless and steeped in complex word-play that sounds effortless, just as a right hook from Ali looks deceptively simple - yet both pack a powerful punch, and really, when you hear Rakim and Nas back-to-back, Rakim just has it down to a precise art - that's how good he is. Ageless, diamond-sharp, Rakim still wears the crown in Hip-Hop, no disrespect to Nas, of course.
Rakim = real hip hop!! If ya enjoy creativity go to my channel listen to "Connecticut" its a song I did only using words that starts with the letter C or the letter T Super9999999999999

Rakim is one cool brother!!!!!! Lyrically, he's off-the-ropes DOPE! How this got any dislikes is beyond me. If you can't dig this, get a shovel, 'cause this is Hip-Hop!!!
True Hip-Hop fans need to work together to start a Hip-Hop Renaissance where we can bring back actual skill, lyrics, and emotion back into the Hip-Hop and create better music for the future.

Hello Everyone!
It’s Music that’s keeping me alive.
My life is so difficult and the only thing to forget my problems is the Music.
All of you will think I’m crazy but you’re wrong
Because singing and writing I can be who really I am.
I’m so grateful because now I can smile, dreaming, screaming. (And I owe it all to music and to god)
Well, I made some covers and I just upload it to my channel and I’ll be grateful if you stop by my channel and check it out.
Thank you so much!!
