YES of course this is what i would think. because i want to this page by looking up "justion beiber kiss XXX" or something like that. my referance to the year 2007 was that it was the year i started listening to 90's hip hop and older hip hop, and basically, older, better music. eccepted?
Lyrics over over produced beats anyday - it called Rap after all not just hot beats. That how you seperate the wack from the dope MC's just drop the beat and listen to the lyrics!!!
hip pop is what you are hearing on the radio,..This is art, try to see this as a painting, what soulja or whatever now is doing is printing stickers or making flyers try make money as much as you can...hip hop gave food to a lot of people while they were eating the paintings....
and like many other beautiful creations and dances that blacks have invented they will try to usurp real hip hop and try to claim it as their own. White rappers are trying to do real hip hop more than club hop. A lot of these old school dances that many think are white people dancing was actually started by blacks. Rock'nRoll is started by blacks but we say its white people music now. Hip Hop is Africanism and from oppressed blacks so we have to preserve our music and sound.
@baazbana I call it "Hip-Pop" personally. I agree with your white person sentiment about preserving rock n' roll, but to say black people don't preserve their music lineage is ignorant, sorry. I listen to Blues just as much as Rn'R, and Blues is imo the greatest form of guitar based music, which is still dominated by blacks. Being a white guy its funny cuz all my fav MCs are oldschool BigL, O.C. Guru, Blackstar etc. Never thought of that, weird.
Good looking out man. All that shit about blacks do this and whites do this, whatever. The longer ignorant fools perpetuate it the longer it will be a problem. I love all my people leave the race out, represent who you are. Just listen to this song and live with that kind of prowess
not only that but white kids no matter how young learn their lineage of rock'n'Roll and they appreciate what came before them. They preserve music. No matter how into rap white kids are they will always be able to sing their parents music and any song from rock'nroll and heavy metal. The new school of black kids in rap dont give a fuck about early hip hop nor do they know anything about it. Blacks dont preserve their music. White people know what real hip hop is lol
This is why I hate KRS, people go around spouting this 'real hip hop' shit everywhere as if there's such a thing as fake hip hop. Soulja Boy is hip hop, face it, just because you don't like him doesn't mean you can throw him out of a genre that you're a fan of. Not to mention anyone who says hip hop dead obviously hasn't tried to find any of the many, many dope acts just under the ground...
@Creixhitme--Your statement was one of the most ignorant statements i have read today on youtube. Soulja Boy is not hip hop. As matter of fact most of this stuff that people are making in the mainstream is not hip hop. Its what I call Pop Hop or club hop. Black people havent properly made specifications in hip hop so that this can be solved. White people would never let something thats not rock n Roll be called Rock'nRoll because they have preserved their music very carefully and skillfully.
@baazbana - What the hell? There's no such thing as "Pop Hop" or "Club Hop". Those are just genre's made out of your own denial that Hip Hop can retain ownership of people who don't represent it's better side as an art. Not only that, butt most of the ghetto black people I know who listen to hip hop listen to artists like Gucci Mane or Wacka Flocka, they don't care about quality, just what gets the bass pumping. White people are the majority of underground rappers fanbase.
JUST LISTENING TO THIS SONG MAKES YOU WANT TO PICK UP AND READ A BOOK ! UNFORTUNATELY, THOSE DAYS WHEN RAPPERS SPOKE ENGLISH IN THEIR RHYMES ARE LONG GONE.
I dont even mention the names of lames, why give them any publicity only OC and underground heads get props. Tracks pimpin beyond reality. NON CONCEPTUAL EVERYONES EITHER CRIME RELATED OR SEXUAL. So true.
how dope & prophetic was THIS joint? "thats what i consider real in this field of music, INSTEAD OF PUTTIN BRAIN CELLS TO WORK THEY ABUSE IT! non conceptional, non exceptional, everybody's either crime related or sexual!" THAT'S the mark of real hip hop: entertaining, educational, the ability to see outside the box! power fists & peace signs up for real hip hop-both new & classic!
hot bitches, pimped-out cars, hot bitches sitting on said pimped-out car or cars which may or may not have equally pimped-out stereo systems, said pimped-out car or cars rolling through the street with hot bitches sitting on locations not originally designed for sitting, stereotypically dressed African-American male driver(s) of said car or cars showcasing their expensive jewelery, more hot bitches dancing around said driver or drivers and their expensive jewelery.
@Mulekeep The truth, but they also add, Hot Bitches having sex with said rappers, Hot Bitches getting pimped by said rappers, Said rappers carrying guns and killing your brother, sister, mother, father just to show that they are hustlers, gangsters, etc. could go on and on

"Of course we gotta pay rent, so money connects, but uhh
I'd rather be broke and have a whole lot of respect
It's the principal of it, I get a rush when I bust
some dope lines oral, that maybe somebody'll quote
That's what I consider real, in this field of music
Instead of puttin brain cells to work they abuse it"
best quote of the track, seeing as it was eventually heavily sampled for hooks/scratches into other classic songs like Big Ls - Enemy, KRS Ones - Rappaz RN Dainja, ect.
The ingredients of this beat are so simple but I swear, when you drop it at a Hip-Hop jam the place explodes. One of my all time favourite tracks. OC kills it on the mic here. An all time Hip-Hop classic, great upload.
LOL at 1:42 wordup, straight up and down the song still rings true today, fuckit, OC should just rerelease this as a new single, maybe just do a new video for promotion it could possibly save the game yo
Fuck who did I offend rappers sit back I'm bout to begin. O.C was so def. I even loved Jewels cause he is such a great MC. Longevity in hip hop. Whew, It's hardcore. I'll still live by L.L being the GOAT cause none too many since 84 are still doing there thing.
When I first heard it my sophomore year in '94, I could of swallowed my own mouth!! I immediately recognized this as an apex of REALITY rocking this world upside down. TIMELESS-MAKE-YOU-WANNA-KNOCK-A-MUTHAFUCKA-OUT-CLASSIC!!!
I was int he shower a few minutes ago thinking about how sick this song is and then it hit me! I was like damn i thought the joint was flawless however...
"My album will manifest many things that I saw did or HEARD ABOUT
or told first hand NEVER WORD OF MOUTH!"
If you heard about it, its word of mouth!!
Oh well its still the shit. Just thought i'd point that one and only flaw out.

OC spits the exact same realness as Nas, Black Dove, Cormega, Talib Kweli, Immortal Technique, AZ, Pac, Common, Dead Prez, G. Rap, Mos Def, etc... I can't believe I'm just now bein exposed to this poetical lyricist. This came out the same year as the legendary "Illmatic" and 1 year behind "Doe Or Die". OC spits paragraphs of mysticism that causes the mind to truly think... this right here is much more relevant than 99.9% of what most successful in the industry render... somethin's gotta change.
6 idiots gave this classic video thumbs down.That's like dissin' the sun for shining.Now before I end this comment I'll just say I miss real rap music (a vital part of hip hop).Nowadays ppl claim hip hop is dead.No hip hop is alive,RAP MUSIC is dead.Well @ least 90% of it.Infact if it wasn't for the underground stuff I would listen to nothin' but rap from 84-99.The last year rap music was legit was 99.O.C. is one of my faves,always has been.
@dubbsway4life Word. Underground Hip/hop nowadays, is what I crave, Rap has turned over in its grave, behave, I slay while everybody listen to lil'Wyane as if they're his slave. I busted a lil rhyme
I've been an O.C. fan forever and this has always been my favorite song of his but after listening to it for about ten years I realized today that this is the best rap song ever.
@Bringlyricsback Yeah no doubt man...todays rap is incomparable to the old school...back then there was a message and a REASON for the rhyme...not the bitches-and-bling-kill-everything bullshit today.

I was int he shower a few minutes ago thinking about how sick this song is and then it hit me! I was like damn i thought the joint was flawless however...
"My album will manifest many things that I saw did or HEARD ABOUT
or told first hand NEVER WORD OF MOUTH!"
If you heard about it, its word of mouth!!
Oh well its still the shit. Just thought i'd point that one and only flaw out.

OC spits the exact same realness as Nas, Black Dove, Cormega, Talib Kweli, Immortal Technique, AZ, Pac, Common, Dead Prez, G. Rap, Mos Def, etc... I can't believe I'm just now bein exposed to this poetical lyricist. This came out the same year as the legendary "Illmatic" and 1 year behind "Doe Or Die". OC spits paragraphs of mysticism that causes the mind to truly think... this right here is much more relevant than 99.9% of what most successful in the industry render... somethin's gotta change.

6 idiots gave this classic video thumbs down.That's like dissin' the sun for shining.Now before I end this comment I'll just say I miss real rap music (a vital part of hip hop).Nowadays ppl claim hip hop is dead.No hip hop is alive,RAP MUSIC is dead.Well @ least 90% of it.Infact if it wasn't for the underground stuff I would listen to nothin' but rap from 84-99.The last year rap music was legit was 99.O.C. is one of my faves,always has been.

@dubbsway4life Word. Underground Hip/hop nowadays, is what I crave, Rap has turned over in its grave, behave, I slay while everybody listen to lil'Wyane as if they're his slave. I busted a lil rhyme

I've been an O.C. fan forever and this has always been my favorite song of his but after listening to it for about ten years I realized today that this is the best rap song ever.

@Bringlyricsback Yeah no doubt man...todays rap is incomparable to the old school...back then there was a message and a REASON for the rhyme...not the bitches-and-bling-kill-everything bullshit today.
