I just discovered Rammellzee from The Book of Hip Hop Cover Art and I am so amazed! This is so unbelievable for its time and still sounds fresh today.

[khaliamoon]

Rammelzee = pioneer.

[Deadgoat222]

DJ for 11 years. Didn't know about this song until after I knew about Samo and Rammellzee. I have 2 copies of the instrumental on vinyl: Beastie Show breaks by Mixmaster Mike. Great! Great New York old school hip hop!

[luv4tig]

i used to have this song on cassette and my radio ate the tape. I was pissed, because this is one of my favorite rap songs that was played here in Chicago at every hip hop party I attended. And u just don't here these sort of classics any more. I searched for hours on youtube trying to find this song, and found it! Much love to the uploader, Peace! LJ

[Magicwithcards]

An absolute gem which I was introduce to 25 years when style wars got released. Still listen too very regularly.... Boy I wish I was 14 again... LOL!!1

Man i am so glad someone finally put some rammell on here. His music was so far ahead of the times during 1983. This is some organic pure shit. RIP Rammell

[XxFourTwentyxX]

In a time, before time itself. The funky beat before you was born immortal.

Ok, well maybe it wasn't. But this is some serious shit!

[detroitMC313]

3:06 - "Long finger nail at the end of my tip of my pinky cocaine make a slip in my lip." ha haaa. i waz not expecting that shit. but that line had maddddddd FLOW. i'm 21 and shippin' through some classic old school tracks to hear them..... I listen to mostly all mid/late 90's hip-hop, pac, nas, wutang, pun, big L.... not really into too much ol' school, but I think this track is much better than some of the other later 80's stuff I heard.

[SmithBrotha]

@MyLoveAmerica, don't worry bout the other peeps in your generation, because you are one step ahead of them!! Keep on rockin old school style my brotha!!!

[insidejerk]

this is my shit

[chuck5470]

@insidejerk Hey, does anyone else notice that this song sounds like Vanity 6's Nasty Girl!!!??? I wonder if this cat got paid for his beat being jacked???

[DanRioNY]

Basquiat produced this?

[villainrobot]

@DanRioNY Damn right!

[JurisicSantiago]

@DanRioNY I think he made a cover song of this!

[dlrinnovations]

the young bastards out now cant even rock for 10 seconds nevermind 10 mins

[mordenviabank]

Amazing record, I wish it went on for 10 hours, not 10 minutes

[CitySkin09]

Cover art is by Basquiat. He produced the song as well.

[throneeye]

I smoked many blunts w/ K-Rob I was 16 years old in 83' I am glad to know so many young people can appreciate this music over 20 years later.

[87tecone]

great track had it on a streetsounds album in 84,great memorys of the time when i here it.

[therealkrob]

I like to thank all my fans who appreciate real hip-hop. Remenber it comes from the heart. Get funky in the place. Yo Ram, what's up. Every one tries to bite each other nowadays. We use to have alot of fun.

[mordenviabank]

@therealkrob This record still kills K-Rob, thank you.

[sirsilver1968]

1983 i wish i could go back, such good times all about the tunes, i was 15 and itll always stick with me.

[dnallot]

Fukin epic tune :D Bombing was soo good back then :) i can only dream....

[XXXXXMintYCQyz]

[MyLoveAmerica]

[REALITYmikeeroc]

[Quane14]

[insidejerk]

@MyLoveAmerica @MyLoveAmerica there out there just not in your neighborhood, just dont stop doin what you do cuz we need more people that can pay respect to the classics

[zipppit89]

@MyLoveAmerica lol, you'd be surprised.

[JurisicSantiago]

@MyLoveAmerica I'm 19 too, and no one in my generation would listen to this holy tune. Thus, I live in Argentina, where Hip-Hop is so underrated.

[sinandacceleration]

@MyLoveAmerica you're not alone, just the better part of a lost generation.

keep on movin' & set things right!

[yorkandpomona]

@MyLoveAmerica true? honestly yr lucky you have found this, just keep spreading the goodness around and you will find the peeps who like this around you

[MyLoveAmerica]

@yorkandpomona Yeah, I did. i"ve been enchanted by this music forever. I have a huge file of samples that the Beastie Boys used. A lot of good old school tracks in there.

[51221119]

@MyLoveAmerica you're not alone. i'm 18

[REALITYmikeeroc]

I libe this song I've heard him the first time as we have done with my breakdance teacher in outdoor training in music

[40jesh]

This is a classic, back in the days we did breakdance on this. This is one off the first tracks for us in the 80 s. I remember performing and rappin with rammelzee in the early 90,s in groningen Holland. Now i,m almost 40 and this is bringing back all the good memories. Mc Jesh. from Holland.

[Dat1KidWitTheHair]

COOL BEANS

[TheDadsr]

[mynamehappy]

[killabstyle]

most expensive hip hop vinyl in the world

[Muzik444]

how much roughly does it go for?

[funkinlesson]

An original pressing is worth over a grand. It's been repressed numerous times though. It originally came out on Tartown Records, then it was released on Profile, then release at least 3 more times on Tartown.

[jedimind24]

@killabstyle i got it for 14.99$

[homr1]

@killabstyle YO THIS RECORD BEEN SAMPLED ALOT THATS WHY ITS EXPENSIVE SHIT IM EVEN LUCKY I GOT A COPY OF THIS VINYL...



[seimilerat]

style warssss!!!! :' )

oooooooooooooooooooo

[amman320]

qualiteeee....

[GaryBeezy11]

mannnn, I would chop a finger off to go back to the day this came out...great time ...love this cutt...i thought this was on Profile Records??...

[Racer64XXX]

i like beat bop pt 2

[analogbreathmint]

Definitely in the top five rap tunes of all time... Possibly top 3.... Possibly top 2... To be honest, can't think of any better at this point... Any takers????!

[Cloax]

STYLE WARS!!!!!!

[inmyhumble0pinion]

This track was ahead of its time and of its time.

[troysson81]

9 years ahead of it's time.

[DJChrisLoot]

GET FUNKY IN THE PLACE!

[DJChrisLoot]

I had this in the early 80's on a compilation record "Hip Hop Electro", Volume 2 (Streetsounds Records), and loved it then... about 10 years ago I found this single, which is a re-release, but still better than nothing... it's on 33rpm, I think the original pressing is on 45rpm, but I just recently heard that there's also re-releases on 45rpm floating around, so be careful before you spend a fortune... either way one of the dopest tracks of all time!

[PoppinSean]

My favorite HipHop track right there!

Thanks for uploadin'

[Iknowbetterthanthat]

Now that's real hiphop!

[Kr0me4ngel]

Best rap record on the planet - puts that gangster rap tosh to shame. What was that comment - I've got the original on profile I might sell it!!! It's the real original with the cover artwork that fetches the dough, duh!!

[TheVenomTechnique]

LONG LIVE BASQUIAT !!!

[Eastenclosure]

I heard the OG record of this track went for $1500

[mallaes2006]

[markonit]

Classic hip hop that won't ever die!

[KIOZKMAN]

[dysfunctionalthug]

[noizy4]

This used to sound great going into "2-sisters" on Electro 2. Everytime I hear this I wait for the mix....

[mastamove]

Yeah, this is still one of the best tracks ever. Absolute a favo.
