2 Live Crew - The Fuck Shop

[thurmanrandy]

Anyone know who the voice is at the beginning? I do, just seeing if anyone else does. lol

[KanishaW916]

@thurmanrandy sound like aunt esther aka the lady who called ice cube a half dead muthafucka on friday

[thurmanrandy]

@KanishaW916 It's Auntie Tina Dixon he/she, not sure lol, had some comedy records a long time ago. My Grandpa had the rarer one , Calling All Freaks, and I used to listen to it, learned a lot of dirty stuff from it, but fucking hilarious. 2live used her in a lot of songs, chemical brothers used her sample in a song, too.

[PowerDistGuy]

I remember having this cassette in my Dad's car.

He was listening to it thinking it was Ain't Talkin' About Love and got thoroughly enraged when the song actually started.

lol

[ballpeenbaby]

I love this and I'm a 82 year old republican.

[derrrface]

Fucking Love this song and album.

[trompete04]

fuck shop- lol

[lpncubs3]

Wow, they used 2 of the best rock intros in history illegally. Sweet Child O Mine and Ain't Talkin' 'Bout Love both beat the fuck out of this peace of shit wreck

[fleshnbone187]

@lpncubs3 Fuck off.

[lpncubs3]

@fleshnbone187 You mad bro?

[fleshnbone187]

@lpncubs3 Fuck off.

[Hunkola]

They illegally used the "Aint Talkin Bout Love" epic riff by Van Halen !!!

[TheSanguineOne]

This song reminds me of Walmart.

[KyleDoman1]

lol my dad told me he used to listen to this

[dunderhed75]

2 live crew got me kicked out of High School today so i went the Fuck Shop

[JustWaIkAway]

rappers admire hard rockers and wish they could play guitar

[bigdinkel]

I think the guitar solo is from Van Halen. Am I correct?

The first one is G'N'R and the repeating guitar is Van Halen.

[thrillington2008]

@bigdinkel the opening is sweet child o mine and most of the song has anit talkin bout love on loop

[jeff97ish]

@bigdinkel Sweet Child o Mine from GNR and Ain't Talkin Bout Love Van Halen

[blueeyedsoldier100]

@jeff97ish

Thank you!!! ahahahahahA

My dad and I couldn't figure out which Halen song it was hahahaahah

[notadjfor1]

This beat is still tight 20 plus years later.

[DumberEveryTime]

Hey, I LIVE just down there two streets. What are these guys trying to say?

[THEEConnorLange]

2:32-2:49 RAW

[derrawhide]

cant believe i gave that LP for a little back of weed lol

[silverafists]

This was used and remixed in the online game, Castle Cat 3.

[bheceo]

This beat is amazingly bananas

[nightfrog65]

I'd love to see people's reactions if you did this song and other 2LC songs at a Karaoke bar :) I hate Karaoke, but this is one of the few songs I would consider singing.

[reivenlocke]

@nightfrog65

People sing songs dirtier than, "The Fuck Shop" at karaoke all the time.

[sleezboy]

Thank you 2 Live Crew, I love hearing the samples the used from Guns and Van Halen. Excellent hard rock bands and excellent rap group

[bg420fl]

FLORIDA SON SMOKE SOMETHING

[MrCavalier14]

wow...and this was even before internet porn got huge..they were progressive rap!!

[Ewing5150]

DONT FUCKIN RIP ON VAN HALEN.

Though they did a good job of sampling it. I like how they dropped it down a tone. :D

[HIghBlutdruck]

After 20 years ... 2 live crew still never gets old!

[Mikewunsch]

suckin n fucking at the fuckshop

[acfalleh]

good sonng GNR n VH beats all in one 

[ANTHRAXCUDA]

It's actually called "ain't talkin bout love" not "the cradle will rock"....

[93adude]

10 people hate the fuck shop

[Aeshir2]

@93adude NO SHIT

[azegas]

There aren't many artists who raise obscenity to an art form, but 2 Live Crew do that on As Nasty As They Wanna Be.

[pwnzyurfacesin32]

what was the vanhalen song i cant think of it

[DHermanEsq]

@pwnzyurfacesin32 The Cradle Will Rock.

[Chillybeef123]

lol, Van Halen sued em for that . . . and yes, revenlocke, it is stealing when they don't ask permission . . .

[reivenlocke]

@Chillybeef123

1) Reply to me directly, pussy.

2) Halen got paid for the sample.

[Chillybeef123]

@reivenlocke I quote, " Later hard rock band Van Halen sued over an uncleared sample of their song "Ain't Talkin' 'Bout Love" in The 2 Live Crew Song "The Fuck Shop"."

[reivenlocke]

@Chillybeef123

Who are you quoting from? Your crack dealer?

[BadManUtdFan]

i love this song since i was 12 !!!:) i love this old shit!

[AvALonAdrianeStorm]

WHAT THE FUCK!?!?!?

[ramatheson]

I can't believe people don't know the samples from this, seeing as they were both huge songs. The first is Sweet Child of Mine by Guns n' Roses, the second is Eddie Van Halen, from Van Halen's song Aint Talkin' bout Love.

How can anyone hear Eddie playing the guitar and not instantly recognize him even if you don't know the song? Wow...

[yarekhunt]

@ramatheson and .."A Little Bit Of Soul"

[kris444666]

Techno junkie it's a song from van halen. And the other is from guns & roses. I might be wrong on the guns & roses

[JohnsGuideService]

AT THE FUCK SHOP!

[TechnoJunkie20]

song at 0:17 ?

[Lorenshyne]

You will drink my cum and nothing more :DD Milky and white.

I performed this song on my prom here in Tallinn in front of 600 spectators, teachers, parents. They cheered at the end, i guess they didnt undastand the lyrics :)

[reivenlocke]

@Lorenshyne

I'm guessing you didn't perform the tune in Estonian, right? LOL!

[martinezsvsu]

sick sampling

[jacenK]

oh 80s rap- how we miss you

[germyfromirc]

my fav 2 live song

[ClioSascha]

i love these guys

[LampwicksCigar]

Love the guitar samples...they don't do rap like this anymore.

[fantasygurl97]

haha this songgg !!

[kaworuchan42]

Heh, I remember when this song first came out, when I was a boy. All the adults around me seemed to freak out at the line, "I wanna see you bleed!" I heard about that line long before I got my hands on this album, and even then I knew what they were going for with it. Heh, guess they forgot all about Guns N' Roses just a few years earlier.

[WhiteStripesFann]

I'm franchising one out in my hometown.

[MikeandhisDroid]

the 90s where great

[pochazet]

well what do you think they were singing about?

[pochazet]

thats what im talking about. that classic degrading of women. i love seeing black women half naked and slutty.

[ganzobenstehn]

@pochazet That didn´t sound right..

Good picture though. Only reason I pressed on this video.

[pegagordo]

When Rockford Fosgate ruled the earth!

[germyfromirc]

such a bomb track.. love the samples

[jeff97ish]

I have owned this album on tape 2 or 3 times and on CD about 4 times. I gave the last one to a friend of mine.

[xovindictivexo]

what is the song called that the guitar is from???

[SilverBlade12]

@xovindictivexo

Apollo 440 Ain't Talkin' 'Bout Dub

[jeff97ish]

@xovindictivexo It's from Ain't Talkin About Love by Van Halen. The inro is from Guns and Rose's Sweet Child O' Mine.

[XTracyliciousX]

best rap group ever. That guitar is so catchy.I fucking love this song!

[kenroy916]

they put van halen to good use

[stephenleet]

fucken good song.

[xg0m]

2 Live Crew almost got me kicked out of Elementary School! They are still the shit!

[dolphindelivery]

@xg0m  you too huh???

[BabyGirlAPisces]

hey i love this song

[mttaylorjohn]

one of my favorite songs ever

[cathypilgrim]

man this song is sick, havent heard this since the 90's...hahaha

[6974angie]

LOVE THIS FING SONG

[thurstythursday13]

baddest fuckin song ever

[MisterClean13]

word

[D4RkM0e]

van halen ftw

[Allixstar9]

<3 the beat to this!!!

[clonerex123]

I first heard this when I was a little kid,

I was thinking what the heck is this? this has a nice beat!

[RocStarr913]

Definitely one of the best songs off this album. This was actually released as a single. It wasn't a hit, but it actually almost did crack the top 40 in The Netherlands, but it was retitled "The Funk Shop".

[ZEANski]

nobody here was really into rap back then... it was just about their lyrics :D

[nightfrog65]

$10 for 2 hours-that's a real bargain.

I'm not a real hip hop fan, but love 2 Live Crew.

[thechefkent]

I'll fuck you till you sleep... you sleep like a baby!!! best verse yet....

[Aelcyx]

I did the first dance as a couple at my wedding to this song.

[shit311]

classic

welcome to the fuck shooooooooooooop

[x5ian5x]

best song ive ever heard

[moltar112]

@x5ian5x u must of herd very, very little songs

[freakofmusique]

this song is fucking awesome....

[SilverBlade12]

0:25 from where is that cover?

[Yoshi92]

@SilverBlade12:

0:25 its Van Halen - Aint Talkin 'bout Love.

MAN THAT SONG KICKS ASS.

[wikdeyez]

One of the best records out at that time...

[BigMovesLPFC]

bagelofeverythings a goof prob 50something and cant relate to hiphop like so many other closeminded goofs

[HoLiDaygirLjenny]

haha this song is very good =))

[escstrg1]

2 live crew 4 ever, best band ever!!!! never forget, 4 ever in my heart!!! best time!

[vtecplaya]

these guys rock. 2live crew rock on

[knzay]

badass guitar

[bagelofeverything]

I maintain that 95% of hip-hop and electro/dance artists use samples out of laziness and/or lack of originality. That being said, Luke and Mr. Mixx put some serious thought into incorporating "Ain't Talkin' 'Bout Love", "Sweet Child o' Mine" and ""Little Bit o' Soul" in such a creative way. Lyrics are a little over-the-top for my taste, but great arrangement, nonetheless!

[0Sirk0]

awsume

[VanHalenWorshiper]

fuck thefreewilly suck my cock there copying aint talkin bout love by van halen

[TheFreeWheelinRPC]

This song is infinitely better than that insipid cock rock.

[moviegame1111]

wow another cRAP song..... This song fuck up Gun n' rose Sweet child o mine...

[TheFreeWheelinRPC]

This is the greatest song ever made.

[petrosian904]

"spread your wings open...for the flight,

let me fill you up with something milky and white"

:)

[mjn76]

"Each room has a bed and also a sink / so u can wash yo dick after fuckin' the pink."

Shakespeare would be so proud.

[DAVINOENTERPRISES]

@mjn76 no doubt!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

[ar4216]

@mjn76 HaHa!

[Knutinho9]

EPIC!!!!

[statlers]

The van Halen intro is also known from Apollo 440 - Ain't Talkin' 'Bout Dub

[bibibacon]

what song from van halen is it?

[quetzalel]

Ain't Talkin' Bout Love, before that was GnRs' Sweet Child 'O Mine

[krillefinngbg]

Ain talkin bout love

[skilineNS]

banned from US due to to explicit lyric basically porn in words haha i love 2LC

[keiley93]

1o dollars for 2 hours wow...cheap prices!

[zonicoi]

man i would bring a 100$ bill....... how llong would that be? eh, screw it ill just bring her home

[Wackel0815]

OLDSCHOOL 4EVA!!!! =D

[korupt40701]

Eddie sued and im sure he won, however im not sure if axl/slash liked it or not

[bennyh12345]

agreed, although it would have been axl/izzy that would have sued

[TampaRed]

Are you sure VH sued? Do you have any sources?

[soldier0fortune]

lmao any tune that samples sweet child of mine and van halen in the first 30 seconds is an instant classic in my mind.

[bennyh12345]

Nothing like Van Halen and Guns n Roses in the intro.

[ucanthandledizz]

stupid

but i like this song for some odd reason...

[Ewing5150]

fuckin rap tryin to steal credit from the REAL musicians...god just fuck off \. you call this music? god, fuckin ridiculous.

[ebonyguy69]

there u go again 2 live crew .. stealn van halens break .. * aint talkin about love*

[jkbezo]

Music Explosion's - Little Bit O' Soul also.

[redwing51340]

They also took the opening guitar riff from GNR's "Sweet Child O Mine."

[tadshackles]

Also they give full credit in the album credits...

It's called sampling... Pretty common. Probably not worth you getting all upset over.

[reivenlocke]

It's amazing how when a rhythm or riff is used from Soul or R&B that it's called "sampling", but "stealing" when it comes from Rock.

I think a lot of Rock fans that say that can't get their head around the fact that rap artists have more eclectic tastes for music than they will give them credit for.

[ZEANski]

@reivenlocke exactely!!

[Thatmoviecreep]

@reivenlocke maybe because all rap artists say in their "music" is fuck,motherfucker,bitch,shit ? but 2 live crew is just hilarious lyrics ha their great

[reivenlocke]

@Thatmoviecreep

The use of curse words isn't the problem, but HOW they are used. 2 Live Crew makes "party albums", so if you buy one of their records, you get what you get.

[Thatmoviecreep]

@reivenlocke Yeah that's true. Bleh that's kinda what i meant by "their still great."

The songs sure do make a party great.

[RockMSockM7]

@reivenlocke They're *both* called stealing when it's done illegally. fix'd.

[reivenlocke]

@RockMSockM7

Problem with that is 2LC paid to use the sample. So it wasn't done illegally, but Rock fans will still claim it is.

[Pelonetillo]

lol, rockers are notorious for stealing songs. led zeppelin, beloved rock group--dont get me wrong, i love em--stole a whole buncha shit from old jazz n blues players. also from random dudes they knew of.

[ThePeteMossShow]

@reivenlocke that beat is bangin with the Van Halen!

[blaquejew]

@reivenlocke -I agree with you. A lot of rap artists use all genres or music to sample from. Some of the best samples have come from rock records. A song like "The Fuck Shop" made be more interested in rock music. I wanted to hear the songs that were sampled from in their original form.

[NoRulesInNam]

@reivenlocke Rock fans in general are fucking stupid like that, and I say that as a rock fan.

[DHermanEsq]

@reivenlocke This has to be the dumbest thing that I ever read. Which ever way that you think about this, it is *stealing* intellectual works from another that most likey has a *Copyright*. The 2 Live Crew needed to get a lawyer to clear the samples the same way that MC Hammer did, and Dr. Dre did and so on and so forth. You can think what you want about the "Rock" crowd, but remember that stealing is stealing no matter if it was the 2 Live Crew or Celine Dion. Get you facts right. Deuces.

[reivenlocke]

2LC paid to use the riffs. GnR and VH both got their slice out of the deal. If you don't like it, there's really only 2 things you can do about it - nothing and cry more.

[cyco2kill]

@reivenlocke oh shit... WORD

[jgriffo31]

@reivenlocke I'm a HUGE Van Halen and GNR fan. I don't think it's stealing it's just those stupid idiots that say it's stealing. But remember if we didn't have Van Halen, Guns n Roses or any other band then the songs that are being sampled wouldn't exist. But you have a very great point. Also 2 LIVE CREW FTW!!!

[umumgot]

@reivenlocke if theres no permission then its stealing, like they stole from van halen

[StarshipPain]

fuck yeh.
