[justeye70d]

@GreatOne1 Not many many touch the Treacherous 3 to this day. Those are pioneers!!!

[bradnobl]

@justeye70d So right man, Kool MoDee & Special K are orignals. With better managemnt they'd have outdone Run D MC or at least equaled them, but then you can only have One King Of Rock.

[ernestwest100]

OLD SCHOOL IS THE BEST FOREVER PERIOD!

[BaCkYaRdStUdIoSTT]

...shyt, i used to rap of this. memories! Peace!

[mrpower328]

Loved this first time I saw it and still to this day!! kids today could learn a lot from watching this film!

[str8outtatexas1]

oh shit this is'nt true music because their not cursing,rapping about their dicks,bitch's,ho's,drank,bling­,houses,money,cars,beef and other senseless bullshit that these whack ass,fake,pre-school rapping,shitty beat producing,meaningless,soul-les­s bullshit that clowns today rap about. this music here is the alpha & omega of TRUE HIP-HOP along with all the other great mc's,rappers, & groups of the 80's & 90's. this is when life was GREAT to be a kid.music,girls,breakin,school­,sports...LIFE.

[leonafemin]

Try BAN, FUNK IT, amazing new tune!!!

[oldschoolbx1970]

I was in the middle of the 4th grade @ P.S. 71 in The Bronx when this first came out on Mr. Magic's show from when he was on another radio station prior to his gig on WBLS(107.5 FM). Rest In Peace to him and Bobby Robinson.

[jcmoss33]

Thanks. Peace and GOD BLESS

[zx6rtt]

The ORIGINAL sample is from Taana Gardner's "Heartbeat" released in 1981

this sample has been used MANY times throughout hip hop...

[selectajay2000]

[sofarama]

[Deetroiter]

So thats what this song is!!!

First heard this beat at the end of the busy b starski vs kool moe dee battle from the 1981 harlem world christmas jam.

That battle was a game changer in hip hop from the party mc to the battle mc. Thanks for sharing this killer track!

[hiramironman]

This is hot for no reason!! So mad about new hip hop its full of nothing!! Why oh why don't the new producers try and find these old artists and bring them back too bad I don't own my own label I would give the people what they want!!!

[adamskiano]

[pictureisup1]

@adamskiano This is 1981

[jamesharvey]

It's ok to like this AND new Hip-Hop, you know

[yugpud]

@jamesharvey No, it's not.

[jamesharvey]

@yugpud oh ok, you convinced me. thanks.

[3rdbass618]

block party's theme music . From then, to now and forever.

[LadyScorpio11G]

This is the real hip hop music I know of. My sister had that record when that song was became big back then, I was only 3 at that time. I remember that song came out after Taanna Gardener's version of Heartbeat. That was the first time I ever heard of Kool Moe Dee before he had a solo rap career. The group got back together in the early 90s to do the update version of Heartbeat, I saw the video numerous times. The song still sounds good. That is real rapping.

[oldschoolbx1970]

@LadyScorpio11G For a sister like you born in the late 70's,you really really know your true school.

[pinifirina1]

Myself, m walker, m claybrook... Little Rock Central High.. 1981 when the curtain opened.. This was the cut we gave em..

[aldocowell]

[boonhouse]

[johnklenota]

[wachitu]

[kingrob29]

[MyWhyteboi]

[snubbs741]

SUmma summa summa time! haha jk "CAme out wit a brand new fucking sound!"

[AmayaCrazy]

Man, I was 13 when this came out and it still trumps most of the garbage produced today. One of the best uses of the Heartbeat disco classic; a rap song with feeling and orchestra strings. Daaaamn.

[thismayhurt23]

[jcarrasq2002]

For All You Young/New School people this was the shit back in 1981...Kool Mo Dee

[ogp]

Heavy D - Something Goin' On

[crazycutz]

i think they all borowed: ( instrumental) hartbeat by Taana Gardner 79 - also the song: " Here Comes The Hotstepper" - Ini Kamoze has the same riff (90's) .. the other stuff from the song is sampled from: WAR's Heartbeat :)

[PopCulture20]

OMG I never realized so many artists used this sample!! lol I actually thought Ini Kamoze originated this sample on ''Here Comes the Hotstepper''!!! lol

[tokyo1crates]

@bdevil4lif

tribe sampled Taana Gardner - Heartbeat, same beat tho ;)

they don't make it like they used to, unfortunately

[MistaRob545]

@bdevil4lif that actually was De La Soul for their "Buddy" Remix, that featured Tribe, Monie Love, The Jungle Brothers, & Queen Latifah....and they actually sampled the song "Heartbeat" by Taana Gardner.

[groovass65]

@bdevil4lif which song did Tribe sample this in?

[ohemgee85]

@bdevil4lif it was de la soul......

[ESSENCEOFEACHTHING]

@bdevil4lif

That's what I'm talking about! Blue4life! We all need to be more positive and just enjoy the music!

[knop95]

[Great0ne1]

@knop95 50 Cent and his G-Unit can't touch the Treacherous Three.

[howardtheman]

[zaantjedam123]

@Great0ne1 ofcouse they cant but pac can

[00579G47]

[clnfks]

SWV - You're the One for Me

[hanssworst]

This is a sample of Heartbeat - Taana Gardner, '79. I don't think Spoonie Gee is on this though, correct me if I'm wrong.

[JurisicSantiago]

im from argentina but i know this is some of the best of the old school! actual hip hop really sucks, cannot be compared with this masterpiece

[seppuku1234]

@JurisicSantiago this is "actual" hip hop....

[bigmanlilworld]

after listening to this makes me wanna get my addidas,lee jeans,mock neck,gazelles,an a kangol hat an pop lock..lol

[bornkool]

"Heart Beat" itself was a hot Track that ruled urban radio stations everywhere but when The Trecherous Three Blessed it... I went bananas... They was another reason for me to carry my JVC Biphonic. I Box, I gave this track airplay cause redio stations used to perp on rappers.

[MrNewyork44]

yo this is the JAM back in the days (NYC) BRONX, BROOKLYN, QUEENS, STATEN ISLAND, LONG ISLAND

[SasiChickETT]

Heartbeat has to be the sexiest beat ever made!

[chinita41]

i agree..

[MrPhillyrick1]

true. hip hop represents the elements of street culture. dancing, rappin, and the street art (graff). that was and still is the foundation of hip hop.

[MrPhillyrick1]

get loose, get loose, moe dee get loose!

just rock heartbeat show'em you got juice!

HAVE FUN! HAVE FUN! HAVE, HAVE, HAVE FUUUUNNNNNN!. i been reppin hip hop since 1979. I AM HIP HOP. its all in me!

[AORCrazy]

Oh man this is SOOO different from what they call rap now, this is AWESOME AND FUNKY AS HELL!!!!

[appamomo]

rap is one of the music genres that changed too fast for our liking

[lenroc82]

Kool Moe Dee was a beast when he was with Treacherous Three

[frubissimo]

i think from 80's to 90's rap changed much

[JAYSKI43]

i remember a harder hitting version!

[mxpassion17]

I pray to god to take me back to the 80s one more time before i die... Wow it was all so great back then long live the hardrocks and the hip hop culture.

[Khultan]

Afrika Bambaataa: 'Nothing stays the same'

[shadowseraph78]

Classic. I have an uncle that actually DJed in the park back in the day in the Bronx. My mom was clueless about hip-hop but her younger siblings were heavy into it. (This is back in the early 80's, when i was about 5 or 6. I'm 31, btw.)

[GiselaNYC1]

I still love this jam, I am here chilling listening to my jams when I was growing up in the Real Hip Hop Culture in NYC. Great memories my peeps, These cats are pioneers in the Hip Hop Culture!!!!!

[CandiTee]

This was "IT" back then and it's still HOT! I know some of you who are my age out there remember we used to roller skate to this too at roller rinks all over NY when we were younger!!! This joint along with so many others back then. I feel so nostalgic about these times in Hip Hop. Great times, great styles, great gear, beats and rhymes, lol!!!! Uh oh, I might have to pull MY pen and pad out again.....

[GiselaNYC1]

remember the rollerskating days, wow wish I can bring those days back & true we use to rollerskate to this jam back then.

[mexcan27]

im 17 years old and I have no idea why anybody calls the mainstream c-rap on the radio these days actual music. This right here is real music!

[MrFlavioValentino2]

@mexcan27 IM 17 too and this is music boy.

[MrStephensmitty]

@mexcan27 Im 17 years old too and I couldn't agree with you anymore :D

[kjlarue]

[cmonwitdagetdown]

when do you hear lyrics in any rap from the last 10 years saying HAVE FUN? None can cause hip hop turned to shit

[MacAciD]

[lake8916]

[krobb48]

[BXspecial]

I just color/shade in what they draw...watch their tags run out of the bronx while on the roof. great song!!

[junebug61093]

[chinita41]

classic

[GiselaNYC1]

Love this jam, brings back good memories.

[HipHopDontStop46]

yo, mad track

[mrpower328]

I remember hip hip before it was recorded on wax. And me and my crew would make tapes and do block parties using this style of rap. It was so amazing to hear it on wax. The Treacherous Three are one of the greatest old school groups of all time.
