real shit here! i can only imagine this brother in a mc battle. he would flow forever! TI, LIl Wayne and all the new fakers are commercial. this be a East Coast lyricist t it's finest. NYC: the home of true mc's and unknown legends. peace
Im from a land built by slave hands now all the slaves do is sing and dance...todays rappers don't even act like a war is going on...hip hop is also about putting out msgs.
The people who post negative comments about classic hip-hop are from a very simple-minded and ignorant generation.
They don't want to hear anything that requires them to actually think and use their brain. They think this sucks because it has none of the stereotypes they've been programmed to accept.
To realhiphopsucks. If Jay-Z or Kanye West did this exact same jam in concert you would be the crackhead in the front row throwing his panties off, crying and begging to suck'em off! Five-finger-palm-wrapped-around-tool-artists like you are even wprse than ordinary wankers. At least they jerk off to pictures of women!!!
The president respond: ARREST THIS intelligent Hoodlum moth$%$ Fuc$% before the rest of nation wake up too and SILENT 4 ever, let's buy rapers and give them mass appeal to make them inofensives U.S.A. whatta country
This is pure, unadulterated raw. This is one of my favorite records because it's hip-hop broken down to its most basic elements: a raw drum break and rapid-fire lyrics. Tragedy was SICK back then.
Anybody hearing this for the first time: if you like this, check out Rakim's "Lyrics of Fury". It's very much in the same vein, and it will floor you.
fuck classic rap was good wit u nigga.... how da fuck u dont fuck wit old skool joints dey the best..... they started hip hop n rap dumbass dat real shit........
sikchild, he was charged with conspiracy, supposedly he and his set was caught selling a brick to a police informant or something along those lines, hes set to be released in 2011.
Classic Queensbridge hip-hop , reminds you of Imam Issa, Jamaica ave, just the whole NYC vibe at that time . this video stalled his career though...to much for the establishment, probably still is too much.
its wack because todays hip hop has been so wack for years now. thats all you little kids know. this is what we remember back in 1990. i was 5 when this came out. he was tight and still is.
Yo BroSha! This cat iz in jail?! What did he due supposedly would you happen to know? Get at me if you know. Damn this cat was fierce with it back in the day!!
it's such a shame to see the dumbing down of the masses in effect, tut tut.... at least these guys had something to say, other than calling everything they don't understand a fagget(not even spelled right) or wack and boring shame on you! p.s. you suck ;)
you know what realhipsucks take control of the limited ablities you have and try to listen to the dam song that;s if you are intelligent enough you probroly no though
Why would anyone call himself "realhiphopsucks" ???
what an ignorant fool!!
REAL hiphop sucks??? So the ignorant foo admits he likes FAKE hiphop????
Uncle Ruckus .. go and suck some white dick, give some crack to your mama, and go to Iraq to fight the white mans wars with a Reagen shirt on!! Ignorance kills and sells out real shit for mental slavery!!!
Man can anyone be more specific, simple and clear to understand this message... unfortunately; i will say, mostly everyone is asleep and are not capable or they not in the level of intellect to understand ur message bro... this rap video and your message is related to this following video.. (Creating a nation of zombies)....
Take no notice of them they're just trollers looking for an argument there's another idiot called classichiphop sucks! He's admitting it's classic....truly weak intellects at work!
realhiphopsucks motherfucker shouldn't even be here and watch Tragedy droppin knowledge and him don't understanding it cause he's a brainless motherfucker. you gots to get the fuck outta dodge for saying "wack shit". all those lil, young and cent rappers you like are wack shit
you know why that motherfucker called himself realhiphopsucks. cause he can't handle the fact that the pioneers and legends are better rappers and droppin better knowledge then those stupid brainless young, lil cent fags. you must be brainwashed by a lil wayne, soulja boy fan or something punk cause you shouldn't be here if you don't like real hip-hop.
Trag was realy shocking some people with that track back in the day...and after him everyyyyyyyyybody was coming out with the same message. It's a shame that he's in jail
This is when Hip Hop had something to say.Before it sold its soul to corprate america.I miss the golden era.Now its all about garbage ringtone music for crack babies
wack? you must be crazy! this is what hip hop is. especially at the time. everything was pro black. even will smith gave him a shot out in that episode when he was doggin jasmine guy.
He changed his rapper name to Tragedy Khadafi and made many albums under that moniker beginning upon entering the millenium. Before that he made a major contribution to "The War Report by Capone-N-Noreaga" actually appearing more than Capone himself on the album. Intelligent Hoodlum aka Tragedy Khadafi is still very active in the rap game. Check him out.
I think he's still doing music... he has his label 25 To Life Records, and made a record earlier this year "The Death of Tragedy" (I haven't heard it tho). Haven't heard anything about being a speaker. Also, in '05 he made a documentary about his life, especially his earlier years in QB. It was surprisingly good, and worth watching or downloading if you can find it. Anyways, all that to say that I'm not too sure what he's up to right now, but he's been keeping pretty busy for the last while.
This video is some ole' raw shit! Put this one in your stereo and turn it up a few notches. He went at Big Daddy kane with a vengance in that last verse. Might not of been directly aimed at him, but it sure sounded that way. Classic consious track!
