Ramellzee, Toxic C1, and Basquiat @ the Rhythm Lounge 1983

[dadweeze1977]

this is hot long live ramellzee

[guitar16]

the mathmatical equation that was once known as the RAMM:ΣLL:ZΣΣ has de-atomized and returned to the stars to cause a revolution amongst the GODS of the universe. battling star beings and multi-dimensional starships from strange foriegn lands with lyrical vocab that goes BEYOND their comprehension of what IS and what WAS. this wicked FREEstyler SMASHED(!!!)boundaries on planet earth and could not be understood except for those of us in the underground. we: the street rats remember the roots! RIP

[scribblezgfx]

Ramellzee was rapping when Lil Waynes daddy was still sticking his dick inside Lil Waynes Mummy. R.I.P. Ramellzee

[thegoldenspike]

A... dislike? I'd like to punch that person right in the face.

[howza100]

An absolute masterpiece. Flawless and raw as f**k. Probably one of the greatest pieces of rap ever filmed. My own particular highlight are the few lines from 3:26. Sounds so fucking good. In my opinion he's produced 3 of hip hops finest moments; his performance on wildstyle over that incredible 'cuckoo clocking' beat, this freestyle, and of course beat bop. From the depths of hell... Rammellzee.....R.I.P

[rudeboywhitey]

got chance to see Rah a couple years ago for the 30 year wild style reunion party in central park - this cat came out and put the fuckin crowd on stun...blasted em with insane energy and when he was done maybe 1 in 10 realized that they were just blessed by genius while others thought a joke was playt on them....

[GoChokeOn1]

this is some off the sickest shit ever.

[gl0bal74]

100% dopeness. His timing, flow, breath control and skill are light years beyond most modern day rappers in the auto tune era

[donlava]

RIP Space Invader!

[AMixedReview]

This beat was used by Raekwon on his latest mixtape, Cocainism 2, which is great. I had no idea it was Rammellzee's beat.

[GrangeGrover]

@AMixedReview The beat is Billy Squier, "Big Beat," and is one of the classic hip hop breaks. It's on a whole bunch of tracks from Run DMC's "Here We Go" to Jay-Z's "99 Problems."

[AMixedReview]

@GrangeGrover Thank you for that little tip of information.  I had no idea so many tracks sampled it, even though it sounded so familiar.

[KeepOnKushin]

REST IN POWER

j

[ostione]

HEAT!

to bad he aint got the samurai costume on this one...

[wtb0]

"Oh me oh my"...Def delivery from a dope oldschool cat. Garbage on the radio can't mess with this. It's a shame that flows have not advanced as turntable techniques have.

[ostione]

fuck yeah, 8 minutes, thats some breath control!!!

(and probly a lot of coke ;)

[DonJuanDeMarco2]

Nah they didn't need or use alot of coke.

[DonJuanDeMarco2]

cough cough.. they didn't need/use coke.. cough cough shh shh !

[boogie7king]

One of the greatest ever check his flow. listen to it 3 times if you don't get it. It is simple and fresh and dynamic

[keirinberlin]

[kingklast]

The Inventor Of Many MC Vocal Styles!

[chocolatepowershovel]

I was in New York in '85. Anyone with this kind of Flow got MADD RESPECT!! Because it was very Futuristic for that era. Unfortunately you have garbage now like Lil' Wayne, Soulja Boy and Lupe Fiasco.

[Manick1]

where no new york and hip hop meet

[dfuzz1114]

ramellzee will rule forever !!!!

[CAUZEFEKT]

to 85lyrics:

you obviously dont have the mental capacity to understand THE ZZ'S greatness or lyrical delivery. early 80's till now....

RAMELLZEE WILL ALWAYS BE AHEAD OF THE TIMES

[85lyrics]

I'm not sure why people are praising this dude, given its the early 80s, he still kind of sucks. This is some weird sht though.What does the man behind the goggles look like? It might explain his wackness. later for you jive turkeys.

[cthepowersthatb]

So what if its the early 80s? Rammellzee rocked non stop with pure stamina, a true originator of styles. How many mcs could jam like this nowadays? He's in a world of his own. Go listen to Beat bop if you haven't already heard it plus  check him in Wildstyle, then you may understand.

[escobarizporn]

he can't understand man.. he listens to Snoop Dogg

[GODZILLA1998FILM]

@85lyrics -ok then crackhead, you know nothing.

[cthepowersthatb]

From the depths of hell

Rock well Rammell...

Two dead brothers they shot each other!

Gangsta Duck

Amazing post Absolutely Fucking Solid

[thirdshift47]

Jean-Michel Basquiat's characteristic textual impositions on video imagery(his place in hip hop history is painfully overlooked).  Rammellzee is simply DERANGED.Before the space cadet non sequiters of Kool Keith we had Far Rockaway,Queen's fineist.

[roastlonely]

the truth!

[blueoystercult22]

ruth!

[phonedial9]

great

[kilejo]

Oh my god!!! The great grand supreme Rammellzee. I been lookin' for this for about 20 yrs. You are my man Studiosee

[chocolatepowershovel]

When I was growing up in NEW York, we used to go to block parties alot like this....HIP HOP in EFFECT Y'ALL!!

[intrusa75]

wow!!!

[dliciousss1]

dope - from who is the beat in the background??

[chocolatepowershovel]

That's one of three breaks used in UTFO's 'Roxanne, Roxanne'. If that answers your question.

[lateralus418]

Billy Squire "Big Beat"

[haliburton]

big beat- billy squire

[hostylebreaks]

amazing!

[chocolatepowershovel]

Notice how he keeps flowing unlike new Rappers(not EmCees) today. EmCees And Rappers; HUGE DIFFERENCE!!

[bboycane]

[Pirate7X]

Ramm rock on, to da break a dawn!
