LA Sunshine--

Easily the most slept on emcee of all time.

[mrpower328]

@thirdshift47 If LA Sunshine went solo he would of made it big. But he had a bad drug problem. I think he cleaned himself up now

[JahlikSerrano]

damn i miss these good old days when u go where the block party was at wit ur crew watin to battle on the mic n the dance floor..

[ravenation81]

"honey" By Mariah Carey sampled the bass from this track

[weinerbongo]

I love that synth riff. Was it sampled or did they write it?

[VinceBow]

I grew up in their neighborhood, St. Nicholas Place, in Harlem. This was my joint.

[mrmoore1970]

actually this came out around 1980-1981, I had this record when it came out back in the day

[addypeople]

[alfeathea]

GOD bless u for uploading this! I was like 10 when this came out. I was still a kid. So was Hip Hop.

[halo3pwnsReach]

Ah, back before damn auto tune...

[insanelook]

Got tons of original old school joints from the early 80's for sale, hit me if interested.I also have this for sale.

[bluemusicpeace]

@insanelook put them on Youtube!! lol 

[shwndh]

This was like 79 or 80. Some of my earliest memories of Hip Hop period. I was like 12 when this came out. My older brother came home with the album. We had to listen to it when parents weren't home. They were not understanding hip hop back then. Good times!

[njnjnnj100]

thumbs up if you came here by searching the name Treacherous Three - Body Rock from Scarface The World is Yours game =D

[primomysterio]

funny how people always get dates wrong---this was out in winter 1980-81 (not '83)---was THE JOINT at parties

[welshlegend126]

Thank you sooooooo much for putting this song on youtube i love this song 2 bad i was born in 94 :'(

[psychoDELini]

[oldschoolbx1970]

When this joint came out,I was ten years old when I heard it on Mr. Magic's show on WHBI with my uncle who was then 17 years old. He later bought it just to drive my grandmother up a wall. Lol. I even did(and still do) with my moms to this day. That's when I pay her a visit.

[smittty191]

old skool

[primus628]

reggy reggy on the mix

[ern363]

[MrJames07111]

[mintunderground]

My uncle played guitar on this song. He's the only guitar and guitar solo on this song. My uncles name is Jeff Johnson. He use to play for Roy Ayers more notably for Chaka Khan.

[prettyone78]

[LowRagg]

L.A Sunshine.

[007ifyable]

[debbiecakezify]

[17mark1717]

In all reality, Enjoy and Sugarhill were really one entity. Sugarhill records with Sylvia Robinson at the helm birthed Enjoy that had Bobby Robinson, Sylvia's son at the helm.

[HCadrenaline]

Take a chill....pill

I love the bassline

[MrPaboy69]

jeez that brought back memories

[chrisanthemum7]

to all those younguns who say music has lost its spark, speak with your pocketbook! Kids are so cut off from the old stuff they have no idea that it exists. It's the perfect conditions for a music renaissance

[MrBowlingmik]

best rap was back n the day..

[cacapipi71]

[Quaisheezy]

[barnygumblee]

[leocarman]

I'm more of a rock and metal fan, but this is hip-hop which is actually good! Before it turned into crap rap. In my opinion, any band or group which that uses real instruments and real talent is music to my ears! Guitars, basses, drums... Rock on! Lol

[ledzeppelin27]

The Trecherous Three was mad cool, they was true to Hip Hop Culture. Pioneers of the (ASR) Alpha School Rappers

[52SG]

True Hall Of Famers...Three Of Best MC's Ever No Doubt.

[mcneal78]

I own "The Hip-Hop Box" collection. It features the best Hip-Hop jams from 1979-2004 and this is one of the best songs on that compilation album. If you pick up this album, it's good for those real hip-hop heads who love, adore, and cherish REAL HIP-HOP like this and not the garbage that's out today!

[supercunderlover]

[mrpower328]

Wow, I remember when I first heard this in 1980 on an A.M. Radio station, I went crazy. I remember buying this 12" inch single and I still got this same 12" single. I love the early hip hop days, it was really fun back in the days.

RESPECT TO THE LEGENDS!

[lacameleone]

genial!!!!!!!!!!!!!

merci!!!!!!!!!!!

[flyty114th]

To me it's more like a priviledge to have been a freshman in high school in 1980 and went to spots like Randy's Place on 125th st. Broadway International, The Fever and without a doubt Harlem World and simply knew what it meant to have a pair of two-tone British Walkers and not to mention a real sheepskin coat.I look at the young bucks comin up now and see the difference how back in the days bein fly, pullin a girls phone # or gettin ya rocks of on the dance floor was really your primary purpose

[srotagadirolf]

w00t! I was 15 when this came out and that was all I was thinking about.

[05066641]

You said the magic words, Broadway International. That was my spot in 83-84. It was always on with the D.J. Howie, and on Thursday nights it was ladies free and we would be up in there with Flash who would come and rip the place. One night he took his boot off a scratched a record with it. OMG! What you know about The Rooftop, Roxy, Skate Key and Skatin Palace in the Bronx Flyt114th?

[flyty114th]

Yo..I heard about Flash doin' the boot trick and I think he was able to scratch a record with almost anything the boy was nice..Me and my boys from L.I. never really had the chance to rock up at the Rooftop..to be honest I think it was because of the shoot-outs we had heard about and how people use to get stuck up in or around that spot back in the 80's..

[WOMPYCHOPS]

This was massive round 'our way' in Manchester UK around 83..still makes me smile

.

[tommydanger]

I Love this Track!

[mceihtfane]
