  • i seen ashanti in there

    @1:38

  • Anybody ever notice that Pars didnt do much with this group. why did they even give him a Mic. lol

  • @chicagoeverwhere ....retard. Praz fucking PRODUCED most of the tracks on the album. Without him, there would be no Fugees. It's a group effort, and he does have some sick rhymes on a couple songs, "manifest" comes to mind.

  • 3:30 What name song???

  • @gruby930

    Ring the Alarm - by Tenor Saw by they made their own mix to it.

  • check out ashanti going crazy in da chair lol i bet she didnt know if should would be making a crowd move like dat too one day lol. claaaaaaaaaaaaaaaasic

  • i've been trying to figure out who the dancehall mc's are... they sing that tenor saw song "ring the alarm". not sure if thats him. the guy with the white hat sounds like sizzla kinda

  • collie buudz

    

  • @stereoarchitect Tenor saw died in 88, so that's definitely not him (he was a thin guy, also). Definitely not Sizzla with the white cap either. I would say the guy in black is MAFIA while the other guy sounds like MAD SPIDER (check the Nappy Heads Mad Spider remix from the Fugess Bootleg Album).

  • @simdio Oh shit good call man thanks ill check it out*

  • Words can't explain

  • rrrrrrriiingggggg the aaaalaaaaarmmmmmmmmmmmm!!!!!!!­!!!!

  • This is how it used to be in Hip Hop, a fusion of Dancehall and New York culture, fiya pon all dem pussy wanna be real hiphopers.

  • They were so nasty! Time for another reunion.

  • PASS BRILLIANT

  • Lauryn was once booed at the Apollo......Now she the fucking QUEEN!

  • @malika810 all in good time, too :)

  • WAS THAT ASHANTI IN THE CROWD DANCIN WITH THIS SILK OUTFIT AND THICK EYE BROWS LOL!

  • @MIKEBEZ Hell yea I noticed that too

  • @MIKEBEZ Ashanti was probably twelve in 1996.

  • @MIKEBEZ that was most def ashanti... nobody got side burns like that not even Luda lol

  • Good stuff. Whats the name of the last song they did?

  • they are SITTING-.-

  • MAN IS THAT ASHANTI @3:35

  • FUCK STEVE HARVEY

    OFWGKTA DGAF.

  • Lauren came to the Apollo and got booed at 13 years old. Went into the basement and came back almost two years later to the day with Wyclef and Pras to R-I-P it!!! This is classic rap. Reminds me of the atmosphere at the Fresh Fest shows.

  • whos that big reggae dude..? he voice sounds familiar

  • aye the same stage she was booed at smh where the haters now?

  • Rest In Peace...music like 90's

  • so who were the dancehall guys?

  • Ashanti's mom at  3:36?

    lol

  • @FlappyDogman no that was ashanti not her mom

  • @Ladybugatnaf

    u know I was kidding right... since that is neither Ashanti nor her mom!

    She woulda been like 15 at that time.

  • @FlappyDogman lol yeah  but that really is ashanti check the side burns

  • @FlappyDogman that is so ashanti!!! lol

  • @jaricesherman22

    yea.. i can believe it. She just looked too old to be 15, but at a closer look I saw it was possible.

    Its just a bit odd still that the camera kept showing her (Im sure there were others getting down just as much), then she ends up being famous later.

  • @FlappyDogman that is ashanti,..so what u saying 15 yr olds could not listen to hiphop..hell nas was spitting illmatic shit at 18 or 17 teen...

  • @hempside

    I never said that.

    And yes.. like I said, I saw its quite possible it is her after I thought about it sometime.

    I was just wondering if the Apollo would be open to 15 year olds..

  • Are you... fucking kidding me?! This is soooooooo so dope. Miss the Fugees.

  • she is one of the dopest lyricists... DAMN!

  • fuck steve harvey

  • Yeah Richard Pryor!!

  • well

    money is all da way it gets.....

  • Funny how years earlier at age 13, Lauryn Hill was booed on the same stage.

  • i love bass

  • Damn...don't look like the Apollo was ready for that....

  • This is where we need to be .

  • i can't even believe i've never seen this. the corners of my cheeks are touching my ears.

  • damn- i remember having this on VHS

  • Feeling the P-Hardaways!

  • Nicki Minaj take notes...that's a real female MC right there! Lauryn is steal the greatest ever!

  • ye lol Ashanti

    

  • Funniest part of this video is watching a young Ashanti vibing hard to the fugees with her gold silk button shirt lmao @ 1:38

  • Apollo knew they was wrong for booing lauryn at amateur night back in 88"

  • Wow lauryn hill was more than ill

  • LOL Look at Ashanti getting her groove on in the audience!! LMAO! @3:32

  • fuckin amazing

  • the first 138 sec shows the best female mc of all time not foxy kim and damn sure not nicky mahaj or whatever

  • is that ashanti getting down in the audience? really looks like her lol

  • @CrassieTrassieNZ yea its her

  • And what makes this such a great performance is because Lauryn Hill got BOOED the last time she went to the Apollo and to have everybody rockin' like that makes it even more special.

  • This is just ridiculous. How many rappers on the radio today could really pull that off?

  • I always have to come watch this video, wish I could feel this way about Hip Hop 2day=( Lauryn plz come back ASAP!!!!

  • so cool

  • i miss hip hop.

  • OMG that owned the rest of life.

  • What was pras trying to do at 1:30 to 1:34. Tryin' to grab a little limelight, were we, huh, Pras? lol. Lauryn's flow is eternal and the fact is she brought out the best in Clef.

  • @1truthfulman Lol. Maybe he was feeling it more than he needed to.

  • @taylorb92 lol. Pity how him and clef fell out..infact, how they all fell out!! Hip-Hop needs them!!! Especially Lauryn!!

  • @1truthfulman That's the truth. Hell, Hip-Hop needs to take its name back, and get rid of these rappers.
