[imtheFreshest]

@hohokage

Thats not Redman! That's Keith Murray, which is also a living legend.

[imtheFreshest]

@hohokage

Keith Murray at left, Red on the right. Your right, im sorry.

[hohokage]

@imtheFreshest haha no problem dude, everyone makes mistakes so dont worry about that

[imtheFreshest]

@hohokage

I dont worry about that. Mistakes should be done. Its about admiting his mistakes, be friendly and learn from it. In this case I took a closer look, so I saw that Murray and Red are there. Bam, learned smth. lol.

[666lemons]

the main stream will never be ready for this

[plod78]

Is this the original beat? I could have sworn I heard a different beat when I listened to this back in '95.

[ilovemanyythings1]

stick my dick in the ground and spin the whole world around. SICK LINE.

[frescore]

Big willie Style!!!!! chasing forever

[haaksondergronds]

[radosnatfurczosc]

@peterpiessens understable part was for fun for my homies :) the real message is: imagine country thousand miles away where this track makes people bop their heads to this in 2012 just like it was in NYC in 95. Thats all

[peterpiessens]

@radosnatfurczosc Alright man, respect, classic song!

[thepriceification]

[MrPsyker1]

One of the most underated albums EVER

[SparadicMathematic]

[tragik445]

[THOMAZs9]

[Barz4Dice]

I've been listening to hiphop my whole life, and I found this track only like a week ago.

MADE DOPE TRACK

[alexco39]

@Barz4Dice same with me man, just found it today

[ToadsMGodes]

@Barz4Dice MAD DOPE YO

[zuzuzluganja]

@Barz4Dice same happened to me ! can't get enough

[joojoobomb]

@Barz4Dice yezzir, this beat is just too dope, one of my favorites of all time. all these videos make me miss early- to mid-90's hip hop so much...

[bdowden23]

@Barz4Dice It's a great track. I haven't heard it since Rap City aired it way back when, and I've been trying to find it for a few years. Mission Accomplished.

[Oliverproinline]

exelente na a ma

[melkhalid1]

[GMaugis1]

Two 12inch pioneers in the trunk...man we ruled streets!!!

@buhmann329 is really incredible. Very respect from Spain. Here we got another pure talent of hip hop called "kase-o" check it bro. peace

[051290ma]

@buhmann329 Its a shame today hearin amateur ass rappers today with a record deal about in their 20s not having the skill like this.

[yeti433]

[Jar0on]

This type songs makes me wish I was my age now back then in the 90s!

[nixa1985]

still cannot explain to myself...how... from this to that...no clue...so f* confusing :(

[imtheFreshest]

@nixa1985

Who? Jamal? I dont think he sold his soul... How you mean that?

[nixa1985]

@imtheFreshest

I meant "from this" (artists like Jamal) to "that" (what we have today)...it just doesnt make any sense.. hope I'm better understood now :)

[imtheFreshest]

@nixa1985

Ah yeah, of course...

I dunno...

I mean, the hoods were crazier back in the days, but the people actually were more intelligent, i think. Today they listen to such wack shit on the street, its unbelievable... Money, Bitches, Cars and Crime! We are cool!

So cool...

[CharlesLynch2]

Still one of the nicest beats I ever heard

[melvinod1]

Keep It Real

[shabdab1]

[papadoc711]

[KingYelIowman]

80%? id say 97%

[russelltynes]

why is this better than 80% of all mainstream hip hop that's come out in years and this came out 17 years ago?

[Legaliize420]

@russelltynes 100%

[TheHipHopTv11]

[PietroCRF]

Yo look who just jumped up on the scene pocket full of green but in leather and all I be's that nigga named JAMAL

[honzanoel]

Queensbridge in the background.

[bignadier]

@honzanoel thats west philly

[FINbball]

normally I don't really like beats with only piano keys or samples or whatever but this is ill. The piano roll is mad chill, the bass is banging and the drums are ill ass fuck. Not to mention Jamal is a muthafuckin monsta on the mic

[gleesocks]

Cameos by Keith Murray and Redman classic Def Squad!

[thompkinsbilal2]

i love this beat its fly

[SouisaSoldier]

yeaaah this is real hiphop!

[thompkinsbilal2]

[petel1000]

Old School to the bone.

[and313]

he was 17 when he did this... amazing

[Tmathh]

Stevie wonder ribbons in the sky....dope sample

[xdarkmanXx]

Yea rappers like Nas/Dmx/Busta or Ice Cube are still real and keep hip hop up!!!

[hardcoreberlinj]

@xdarkmanXx i understand what ur saying man but if im honest, busta kinda sold out

[xdarkmanXx]

@hardcoreberlinj I agree, Busta isnt that real anymore. But there so many good rappers out there who kills lil wayne an other shit rappers 4 times in a row. Its all about the public shit and all about money. Lots of rapper need the right label/money to get up but nowadays less ppl listen to music like this.

But look for example at a awesome rapper like -> Tech N9ne he was underground (maybe hes stil i dunno)

Man hes a beast, and his album got a good position.

And now lets wait for Dmx album

[SantaBadd]

@xdarkmanXx This is a really nice song I like it....We realy do need hip hop like this for today. (On a side note Jay Z and Beyonce are apart of the Boule)

[xdarkmanXx]

@SantaBadd I agree. All what we need is a rapper who's real with real lyrics.

Im sayin'

Oldschool lyrics: real

Oldschool beats: perfect

Newschool lyrics: piece of shit fake lyrics

Newschool beats: Ok they are not so bad than the lyrics

Combine oldschool lyric and newschool beat and u get Awesome Underground rap shit ;)

All in all the beats are improving but the lyrics get worse. END

[Jar0on]

@xdarkmanXx You mean: New school beats: house beats which are loud so that they only have to TALK over it and it sounds like rap

[xdarkmanXx]

@Jar0on what you talkin..house beats daamn im not talkin about southern rap westcoast and eastcoast got really good beats and aint no sound like house -> ice cube/wc got awesome beats / dmx and so on

[vabose]

I never heard this before how i can tell it is from the 90s it got that old school feel to it

[1975JKC]

funkin tune....got wid wifey this year, still rocking memba fucking to this shit.....helll yeah

[sosinceremusic]

SHOW BIZ * AG, BLACK MOON, ROXANNE SHANTE, EASY MO BEE, SPICE 1, SOULS OF MISCHIEF, DIGITAL UNDERGROUND, MASTA ACE, CMW and the list can go on and on.....

[sosinceremusic]

i remember back in the day when this album came out. there were tougher ratings measuring how hot the albums songs, production, fluidity, word play, realism, creativity and influence were measured. Jamal was underrated among so many others. Back when substance really meant something. SMH.....Oh 90's, where have gone... PM DAWN, OGC, JAMAL, PETE ROCK & CL SMOOTH, BTNH, QUEEN PEN, DE LA SOUL, ATCQ, ABOVE THE LAW, PHARCYDE, MAIN SOURCE, BRAND NUBIAN, SCREW BALL, DJ PREMIER & GURU (GANGSTARR), QUIK.

[ahmad312]

@sosinceremusic It's a new era. You can always listen to this music. But all of you gotta move on about the music that's out today. genre's evolve. Haters waste their time talking shit about artists today. If you don't like them fine, but realize they love the same music you listen to now cause they grew up on it.

[uuuuNB]

@ahmad312 I was born in 92, so you could maybe argue that i am from the the new era. Even though i hate this new bullshit mainstream shit they're playing all over. Keep the ol' school flavor - keep it real.

[dominicangali]

abeces una evolucion es decadente

[dominicangali]

cuando entonces el hip-hop era la vida,todo tenia un rumbo...

[MegaMecha5]

90s also had perfect Dance music

[westside159]

as the beat heat up , pyschotic thoughts start to lead up , i got the sauce to make the billboard bullet speed up " yo word up

underground sound

[shayuk09]

for those who miss REAL RAP check out UK FEMALE RAPPER SHAY D's tribute to 90s hip hop with track 'bring it back' on youtube!! Peace!!

[huevopunk6]

hey man apoyo esas fechas teneis toda la razon

[97mikekyser]

@rtkpoludine early 2000s was better than today's " hip hop". but r&b was perfect in the 70s, 80s, and 90s. it was kinda perfect in early 00's. but whatever that is the best thing i've ever read. good job

[espanola82]

Man Illegal was the shit. They were both my boyfriends in my head back in the day. Way cuter than Kriss Kross. Jamal entire album was tight too. Slept on major.

[ThisIsVice]

'10 perfect controllin the jerks

[TheBBoyCompany]

In '95 Until...

I Still Kick The Ill

[FenolNTLNSoldier]

Peeps that cant feel such funky, dunky, flowy, freshy Hip Hop music, need to buy a soul again. nuff said.

[blackplaque617]

[funkdoctacoles]

[Sankararevolucion]

[steelounbelievable74]

While many of these albums are out of print or cannot even be purchased on itunes, I'm extremely happy to see that people are keeping ARTISTIC MASTER PIECES such as this alive and well on youtube.

[saybia1985]

fuckin' nostalgia!

[MyJunior1975]

Jamal's "Last Chance, No Breaks" was one of the most highly slept on hip hop albums of '95. He had Easy Mo Bee, Rockwilder and Erick Sermon on production! That alone was worth the purchase of the album!

[geischeissen]

he was 16 years old.

that is incredible

Illegal was better than kriss kross

[cinemask8]

This is the Real essence and the Real flow of Real Rap ..... !!!!

[BeatmakerZonderNaam]

Jamal is dope!

[TurbulentG]

[KrankeSchwestah]

One of the greatest songs ever. I love Jamal.

[janowitsch]

[94incurabil]

[solarstar2k2]
