I feel like the artists in the "hiphop" genre today are just too lazy/stupid to make tight lyrics with multisyllabic rhyming and a smooth flow over the beat. Honestly, this original form of hip-hop requires a lot more talent and hard work to accomplish. Artists like Drake, Lil Wayne, Kanye after Graduation are lauded today by so called critics for pushing the boundaries of hip hop with autotune and rhymes that let's be honest, a 4th grader could make.
I'm not sure what your definition of Hip Hop is, but this has the boom bap beat, dope sample loops, real good lyrics...sounds like Hip Hop to me! Pete Rock and CL Smooth could never NOT be Hip Hop!
yo, all yall non hip hop fans need to stay off of hip hop pages, for real! it kills me when occasional rap listeners think they have a valid say in hip hop! you gotta take that corporate plug out ya ears and open ya brain. otherwise, step off!
There Making A New Album. Thats Gonna Be Some Life Saving Shit For Hip Hop The Originality And Realness Is Still Out There Some Where And In My Mind Pete Rock & CL Smooth Can Help Change The Game Back The Way Its Meant To Be With A Few Other Golden Age Artists And With The Help Of All Of Us The Fans We Can Do This Shit. The Positive Image Needs To Come Back Fuck Getting Money And Having A Hot Ride All You Gotta Do Is Rock The Fuckin Mike
man its awsome what pete rock & C.L. smooth did for the rap game they changed it in their era for the good. i think they are the best duo in hip hop history, (with NAS and AZ)
@GamingNeeds 15 years old, german, white and still loving this shit. hip-hop is some shit everybody can vibe to, regardless what age, color of skin or nationality.
This joint speaks what these kids need to hear these days. Fuck getting the "new" shit that the corny ass cats have especially all of it gets old and obsolete. I just wish these fellas in the Videos will stop sayin that pointless shit they say and be a real hero to the youth by speaking the truth. It's artists like Pete and CL, 9th Wonder and J. Dilla, Mos Def and De La, the Fugees and the Wu to name a few that made themselves legendary when we were younger by keeping it real.
How the hell are there 5 dislikes?? This is real hip hop.These are real artists. These are real lyrics. This is a real beat. A message. Skill. Art. HIP HOP!
@jtmenniti1 whattup, peace & respek! you gotta unnerstand that those 5 dislikes probably dont know the first thing about hip hop and probably dont care. all they know is whats considered popular in the mainstream. whatever man, just keep it 100 with that hip hop respek!
@kaoss0515 no doubt bro. Its a dam shame how they got no clue. Its mind boggling to me how anyone can thumbs down this. I guess if u keep getting fed shit everyday it starts to taste good. Ill never stop reppin the real
@blackisrealites85 ,hope your faggot dadys ass is burn in the fire in the stolen land called stinkin israel,i live in berlin germany and i know a old german wehrmacht officer,he have a lamp made of jewish skin,nice thing ha ? hahahahaaaaaa,fuck all jewish pigs..
Word from gambia/north dakota/seattle/.... pete rock and CL collabo is definately one of the best things that happened to hip-hop along side guru and premo
@Jemini29944 Yeah you need to be, because this is poppin' like cherry bombs. Pete Rock & CL smooth put a nice twist on a Jackson 5 classic dog, but hey, what do you know about great music.
days when THE SOURCE and THE VIBE were the epitome of the HIP HOP CULTURE, when oversized jerseys and baggy jeans were cool, when you saved all your pennies to get the latest hiphop compilation, when hiphop beef was raw, emotional and could alienate you from your peers, when your parents didn't understand why you were into the "weird" music, when hiphop actually meant you belonged to a urban elite group that no only the few initiates could understand...yes those were days!!!
@widerling could not have put it better my self homie, only us dudes from that time know how that energy felt! we used to hit the club and mean mug peoples while standing outside listening to the new biggie joint, drinking 40's......we aint never actually go inside th club...forget paying 5 bucks for a beer son!!

@Onkojaque dead prez has a song tallkin about how the "white" school system doesn't work for black people so they shou;d just not go to school, ya good idea
hip hop isnt dead its just rare. pete, CL, guru, and premier may not be together anymore but this slow phase only lets you appreciate what it used to be
@loscolgaos69 real hip hop is never dead as long as we who love it are alive and talking about it spreading it and and making everyone know that WE LOVE IT.nowadays u can see it in some underground fellas that keep making it with good heart and tight intensions..and one of this days..mind blowing songs like this one may come out too !hip hop is music..is a movement..and above all its an atitude and i dont doubt u feel it! but we cant be just blaming the world..we gotta pump pump pump pump it up!
