All the youngbloods complaining about the pops and scratches on the audio have obviously never put the needle to the groove, and they think vinyl is just a fabric.
This would be 10x better if it was a digital version of it. Whoever created this Y.T. video must have used a turntable from the 1920's you can hear the crispy sounds of the pops and scratches from the dust filled needle as it plays.
I was an 11 year old little girl, living in Bronx, NY and this song was BIG! Wouldn't changed growing up in NY during these years for nothing! We just about wore our sneaker soles out doing the Rooftop dance to this!
These guys were pioneers of the hip hop & rap world, and one thing for sure is that, it was done from the heart with pure lyrical skill & talent, it wasn't always about the damn money. And you listen, you can hear a major difference in ol skool hip hop vs. that stuff that they call hip hop of today. At least the lyrics were clear back then.
......WOW...i was in Jr. High School doin A Dance called "The Roof Top" off dis song..Damn...i Remember wen this 1st released !..Lmao!..i'm still yung tho...lol
