Coolio feat. J-Ro and Billy Boy - I Remember | *Best Quality* (1994)

[grisas86]

Now that's some real hip hop...

[solyhhit]

My favorite song growing up. And I played paperball too motherfucker!

[YURAHOE1]

WORD they filmed this song at my pad along ass time ago!! the kitchen sceen was my kitchen!! and the backyard in the end of the song was mine!...

[s2mikey]

this is the tightest shit ever. Im a white collar cracker and I jam this stuff all day long...... just fantastic....

[051290ma]

I remember when music touched the soul. Nowadays it touches the nerves.

[tokers25]

amen to that

[themadrapper101]

Some dude said current Gen says Hip Hop was the best 5 years ago, FUCK THAT Im 22 and say 90s.... I graduated in 2009 thats when the whole Justin Bieber/Ga Ga/Drake bullshit era started. N yea this song basically bout me as a kid in the 90s... It was like a magical dream.

[Hokieman101]

This is fuckin' pimp! Coolio is the Holy Savior!

[jefersonvilaede]

cabelo do sabotage.

[loboalvizures]

Cool.

[catfoodtitans]

I don't know why, but the songs just not the same without the video to me.

[051290ma]

wow I was only 4 when this came out. I wish I was into Hip Hop at the time instead of watching Power Rangers at the time.

[LASVEGASGHETTO]

I REMEMBER THIS SONG...lol...i remember. the fuckin big bad ass 90's...fuck the new school.

[girlsinpinkbows]

LOL @ flipgood and Punk...THE 90's was the greatest era of HIP HOP. But if you don.t know...now ya know...

[ek347194]

@ flipgood...i love the lyric in the song "i wish i could go back but, wishing is for suckas"

[BigJujube]

I loved this video, and it's still great stuff.

It'd be even better if the audio were in synch, bro :P

[Bilouuutee]

Je suis francais et mon artiste préféré et COOLIO et cette music tinkiete poto :)

[90FirstGenPGT]

use to watch this on "the box" music video request channel.

[90FirstGenPGT]

NICE THANKS FOR THE UPLOAD! this takes me back!

[realisticHomeboy]

Wrong aspect ratio. FIX IT! And do it right from now on for fuck sakes!

[UNDERRATEDMCS]

real music.......

[hoghash78]

My Dad would grab pillows. Put em in his hands.

And tell me to fight.

He´d hit with pillows. and he said "hit me as hard as you can"

with my little hands I´d hit him hard.

But those pillows always seemed to whip my ass.

A simple lesson, that helped later.

RIP papa

[LesaneCrooks3]

@hoghash78 deep. R.I.P. I feel you

[paralyz3r00]

SEN-TOWN 4 LIFE!!!! or atleast till i graduate

[TheManAbove]

I remember noticing this song was on the Double Dragon soundtrack.

[jerzeyrunnerflash]

@TheManAbove LMAO Me too! I rember hearing it on the Double Dragon Soundtrack too!

[short45nine]

sick as hell !! top shit this is ! 5* !!

[jarkokoo]

Coolio's first album, It Takes a Thief, is just pure diamond from beginning to the very last track, which is exactly this joint. If you hate this track, you hate hip-hop.

[Maxmulham]

Why isn't this viral??? In my opinion, this is Coolio's best.....by FAR! makes me miss the days when hip hop was all about real life and less about mansions, sex, and women.

[MrHerdsam]

MONESSEN!

[rlambert15]

THE JAM BACK IN 96

[clokwize]

funny cause he probably looks like that already

[joule724]

Motown representin' at its best! I remember when this song hit the radio & when everyone heard Monessen, PA we were all callin' each other sayin', "did you hear that?" Lil' ol' Monessen in a song on the radio...who woulda thought that would happen? Brings back some great old memories for me!

[proelokot]

im listening this track first time and I so fvcking like it ! :D

[sarujo]

I remember (no joke intended) when I took my trip Chicago five years ago. As I was coming into the city via the busy highway underpasses, I looked up and happen to see overhead to my left what appeared to be this huge 747 flying real low, preparing to land. I was reminded of this video (1:54). He's right, the past is always simpler than the present.

[infanzer]

Anyone down for some paperball?

[jh15116]

Im not far from Monessen PA and im from Pittsburgh but i been to Monessen one time which is cool.

[DJBILLYBOYLOCO]

YOUR RITE JN15116 THOSE SAMPLES WERE THE SHIT. I REALLY LOVED DOING THIS SONG WITH HIM.

[jh15116]

Also to mention there has always been bad in most the decades as well take a look at the 20s with gangsters killing people back then as well and the 60s when alot of blacks were killed. After the 90s the music quality really went downhill.

[jh15116]

I was talking about how music quality was better back then not life in general. Music is shit these days. All music back in the 80s and 90s were better then these days. Some things were bad about the 90s like gangs and drugs like coolios mentioning and some good. The economy was much better in the 90s just to name a few take a look around at the shit going on these days compared to back then alot worse now.

[flipgood89]

funny because in the video Coolio was complaining about how terrible it was for kids raised in the 90s environment. Then you have 90s kids coming in talking about how terrible it is for kids nowadays...then you will have kids from this era talking about how terrible it is for kids in 2025....Its a rite of passage to hate on the younger generation.

[PUNKem733]

@flipgood89 This is exaclty right. Like people saying hip hop was best in the 90's, when the older gen would say the 80's, and the current gen say it was best 5-8 years ago.

[flipgood89]

@PUNKem733 ...Mos Def. I get into it with heads, 'cause I get annoyed at all this prisoner of nostalgia, shit. Appreciating or reminiscing about the past is great, but when people start acting all miserable because its not such and such year anymore, I say wait a minute. Human nature orients many to want what they cant have ---- so instead of appreciating the time we're in, people want to whine about days that are long gone. Glad to see you hear me, 'cause I think its important. Stay up!

[realy0sh1]

n my block we did just the same things and know its getting all like fcked up 2

[IceManLikeGervin]

Butta!!!

[jh15116]

Im glad i grew up with this rap. This is real rap and not shitty little wang. proud to be a 90s kid.

[WebVMan]

Coolio puts the cool in.... well.......cool.

[GWEyaster]

i love you man.(T-T)

[AxlRosenberg]

Hah, I actually worked on this video. Haven't thought about it in years!!

[silentopinion]

If only I could go back like that. This makes me think of when we first got cable tv and me and my brother and sisters would sit and watch MTV. Those were the days.

[simonbrooks101]

@silentopinion LOL!! Yeah that sounds exactly like my house. We got cable in like 1992 and we became quickly obsessed with hip hop particularly west coast rap / the G funk era at only the age of 8. I would never change it.

I wish i could go back but wishin is for suckas, life was so simple then.

[Trillasecond]

he's reminiscing about drive-bys?

i remember a lot of sh*t too

but i dont wish i could go back

[illesto1ne]

Monessen pa aka Sentown.

[ShutTheFuckUp0809]

I remember this shit when I was a little kid. Most of these lil wayne fans werent even born yet...

[yegsmitty22]

@ShutTheFuckUp0809 Awesome. I hear that.



[tonebonebravethunder]

[aircooledberndoggie]

OG cool ass rap. No bullshit here!

[TheBengkeng]

[005226mike]

wicked!!!!!!!! 

[powerrangergo2325]

rapers today rap abt money and drugs, but coolio is the shit

[casafather]

@powerrangergo2325 4 real, life is the real drug, life is the real shit

[eltorobado]

Hi.....i love this video

please can you give me the link or the original file about this video

I would greatly appreciate what you

[casafather]

Yeah fuck that shit

[MeAndMeYT]

Man, this is still great after all that time...

[ripperduck]

I'm going to use this in my HS English class. The song is an autobiography of this man's life. IMO, there are so many words, phrases and concepts that could be taught to 14-15 year old students, in a medium that they can understand. The cadences, the rhythms and poetic structure is so damn apparent with this music. Same with Biggie's "Juicy," the song conveys and teaches so much. These two guys were geniuses in a REAL way.

[mercilessmax2009]

Used to watch this music video when i was four in Pittsburgh, PA.. Coolio used to be on Nickolodeon too! Man I miss the 90s! I'm twenty now disgusted with todays rap game shit aint the same!

[jusaLOSER]

@mercilessmax2009 dang man i wasn't a kid but i loved Coolio! 94 is when this album came out, i was 22 but i loved it! 37 now and still lovin the old school hip hop like crazy! i'd love to find videos for Bright As the Sun, can o corn, even Smokin Stix, and hand on my nutsac

[mercilessmax2009]

Yeah man I have a pretty good memory remember oo la la? Coolio was badass becuase even though he was a real crip he kept it real with tha younger kids he aint like Lil Wayne whos just a poser

[jusaLOSER]

@mercilessmax2009 i would even love it if there were videos on here of the clips from All That that Coolio was on! like the Good Burger skit with him, and videos of his performances including Smilin, and i know he did another one i just can't remember what song

[jerzeyrunnerflash]

@mercilessmax2009 you're preaching to the choir man. I have an 8 gig music player and it's full of old shit like this. I'll be damned if I am forcefed this bullshit these kids call music now a days.

[cuzdixiesaid]

this shit is gangsta. i was in middle sixth grade when this came out and had the tape and it means so much more being older. i also liked the song ugly bitches

[jkat2000]

@ cuzdixiesaid - ironic; gangsta & anti-gangsta @ the same time

[ThuglineSoldger]

I liked this song in all as a young buck but its even better now as I REMEMBER.

[Mysterwright]

Where Re-Run in this video? Didn't it have cameos by good times and what's happening? Who edited that out? This video used to be tight in 94!

[Eyzikya]

It's still tight in 2010 for me :)

[Mysterwright]

Haha, cool. :D

[bgggbb]

I was 12 and was a proud owner of this Cassette! I remember back in the day when I got in a fight, it was Me vs him. Not me vs his whole crew! I miss the days of one on one scrapin! Chumps fight in groups! When I was young, it was one on one. whoever won, won! Plain and simple! If you lost, you accepted it!

[ccspence8]

Coolio was on top of the world from 94-97

Man, its funny cuz as a kid (like he said) dudes went on a kill spree, now everyone thinks they're hard and really its more like Malibu's Most Wanted haha

Black & white dudes thinkin their hard and never been 5 miles near a ghetto lol One of the few white kids that lived in the ghetto, black chics wonderin how I can grind and black dudes grillin sittin on the sidelines.

If only I was like a teen when this shit came out

[jlbodah]

this song is bad ass. i just saw coolio preforming at the local deli zone. how times have changed.

[CoolioCincy13]

coolio is a legend

[Dankload1]

This song is a classic!!!! Brought back some good memories.

[ShutTheFuckUp0809]
