Main Source - Peace Is Not The Word Play

[kEPTreaL100]

This is just another reason why i turned into a HIPHOP kid when it wasnt cool or IN VOGUE !! Figures with only HUNDRED THOUSAND views on a place where the ENTIRE WORLD can watch and educate themselves in why theyre wearing certain type of clothes and talking in ways that was definetly not in any DICTIONARYs in 1992 !!

you WANT LYRICS BOYS and GIRLS and Lil Wayne !!

54 SECONDS TO 1 minute and mutha - F in 38 SECONDS !!

PORTUguese stoner

[zevluvfresh]

Pure dopeness.

[1969mufasa]

my favorite by these guys for sure

[Wutwut1n1]

The thumbnail looks like the chick is about to blow him. anyways, i think of this song whenever i hear george bush say some shit like "we will lead the disarmament of these wapons in the name of peace"

[CaptainMoroniMsgs]

2 people shot the next man and turned around and said peace

[Quincysguy1]

Horns are from MFSB, Freshman in college when this dropped.

[MrJas1991]

Way dope

[Phrivalus]

Two people who have seen this video are not at peace with themselves.

[WeedVulva]

@Phrivalus haha

[exeKba]

The Prodigy - Jericho beats at 2:32

[TheGreatMozeek]

I remember this.  Nice.

[Phrivalus]

I'm still spellbound at how relevant this song still is to this day. It shows how timeless this group is and their messages of social/political satire. "Peace is still no the word to play!"

[Bamfism]

BREAKING ATOMS...Large Professor Sir Scratch and K-Kut captured lightning in a bottle on that classic album...played that cassette to death back in the days....

[BreezelyBruin]

@gbranch He learned it all from Paul C. A white dude He admitted it himself. Don't get it twisted.

[delirious44]

@BreezelyBruin that's right Paul C also taught Ced Gee from Ultrra's

[Rustyparapper]

Im a huge Main Source fan, but, when i think about it, since Large Professor was a genius producer, did Main Source really "need" TWO DJ's??? I never saw the point in that

[thirdshift47]

@Rustyparapper

Those two DJs were also great producers in their own right.

It's just too bad egos led to the breakup of crazy dope rap group.

[RedAnton]

gbranch70 - who are you? I've been working with extra p from 1989 or 1990 on, and agree - with the exception of Paul C, Large Pro was the first to really get the sp1200 down to a science, a true pioneer and innovator!

Anton

[TSCREW1]

this was my shyt!! Back when they had 2 djs. Good look mayne!

[meandminespro7]

the good old days...damn

[selicleto]

Dont know what the argument is about , This is HIP HOP , not today 's music is all just commercial and note this all of these artist are all about money and glamour.. Ok Metal is a form of musical expression in a different context.. Both are now hurt with today's music as I said music today is all commmercial, nothing about conciousness.. I would have to agree with vegunited06 very well put...... I think in the next 20 years music will just be digital no vocals......Both genr reaching its peak

[josebronze]

Is it just me or does the warehouse area look like the same place they filmed Fakin The Funk?

[bluemonkjd]

Heh, probably the cheapest industrial rental space in all of Canada.

[loopdreamz]

I always like this song.  He's usually more mellow. It's like Large P found his inner Chuck D on this one.

[Marz1973]

Bearing in mind this was released in '91 how prophetic was Large Professor @ 2:14. Few kids today have respect, focus or direction got to get them to put down the knives and pick up a book instead

[73dodge]

i really appreciate this stuff, especially compared to the garbage thats out today.

[vegunited06]

You say Trivium-I Say Ultramagnetic MC's

You say Metellica-I say Rob Swift

You say fender strats-I say sl1210s

You say Rasmus-I say P.U.T.S.

you say Iced Earth - I say Public Enemy

You say Iron Maiden- I say London Posse

You say Metal-I say HIP-HOP!!!

92% of people have turned to metal.If your one of the 8% who like to gangsta-up and get down copy and paste to 6 videos

DON'T LET THE SPIRIT OF REAL HIPHOP DIE

I'm one of the people that ignore these but don't let realhiphop die out!!!!!!!

[Cherrypoppins18]

What the hell are you talking about everyone listens to shitty ass rap. This is fucking hip-hop! Hardley anybody listens to fucking real hip-hop or metal anymore (true music). What is the shit that kids have blastin out their cars these days? Rap! Metal can be philisophical and so can hip-hop, this song is proof right here. You just took the whole 92% of people listen to rap and if you are one of the 8% who listen to metal and switched it up. Your'e fake and stupid. Metal and hip-hop forever!!!!

[Cherrypoppins18]

You should have given examples of of rap, because Metal is real music just like hip-hop. I honestly don't know what you are talking about, hardly anyone listens to metal, they listen to rap. I'm sorry but you have really pissed me off, get your facts straight before you post bullshit like this. Btw I am not talking about shitty metal bands like lamb of god where you can't understand what they are saying, I am talking about the real metal bands you listed like Metallica and Iron Maiden.

[MrMorningside125]

breakin atoms(1991)classic album. live at the barbecue wit nas and akinele. the first time i heard nas spit. knew he was gonna be somethin special

[CarsonHot]

Your friend got beef I'll buss him too!!!!

[fuksoljaboy234]

anyone wanna get high i brought some hash with me

[Mistahjey]

you need to put that stuff in a cake and eat it, no need to damage your lungs with smoke.

[Bgod74]

i used to freestyle off this instrumental makin them tapes!!lol ill still rip this shit!!

[jkbezo]

I hope the next generation of kids could bring back the HH that was real.

[bfaleimu]

If you can get your hands on their album, it would be worth the effort. The production is unbelievable!

[RealHipHopSucks93]

wack song

[thekidshelleen]

dope profile name!!!!

[cybersalad]

To this day I still don't understand what the point was of 2 DJs.

[rakim2619]

kurva yo zene hibátlan peace

[littlejonnyfrost]

you can't mean p-e-a-c-e, cos i've seen people on the street shoot the next man, turn around and say peace! but that's leaving people in pieces, it's not what the meaning of peace is.

needless to say i'm vexed...

man, they don't make 'em like this anymore! i used to love her... but like jeru said, puffy started getting her drunk and fuckin her mind up...

[thekidshelleen]

you can all blame puffy cos he's a cock but stop getting nostalgic it makes me fukkin sick!! and quoting common? resurrection was the last dope album from that slut, thats why y'aint quoting his new shit i guess. the past is dead and gone, bar wu-tang and anyone else whose tunes stood the test of time. fuck 'real', fuck 'conscious' fuck 'boombap' stop neglecting the present day, tomorrow is a bright future, represent it

[littlejonnyfrost]

agree with you about common, one of the reasons i'm so nostalgic. as for the rest, i just lost my faith and i'm allowed to do that... the past isn't dead my friend, it lives on in my nice music collection. i'm getting on man, it's great to hear you say that there's a future, it's young bucks like yourself that need to be believing that. me, i got the memories and i'm happy to move on. hip hop isn't my life any more. if you don't like the idea of keeping it real, how about keeping it nice? peace.

[phesterjr]

LOL Tomorrow is only a bright future if the quality of music improves today. Fuck the past? Yeah, right. That's why you have over the top remakes of old movies "Friday the 13th", Karate Kid, and Halloween, and now Hellraiser. But until music gets better, people are going to keep looking back (because music had substance). Until a new up and coming label decides to be different and strive on TALENT instead of one hit wonder ignorant ass music? People are gonna keep hating on TODAY'S BULLSHIT

[kennboy1]

Agreed man. Agreed!

[DLCOrganization]

You, know, Phester,

there are quite a few labels out there that are fulfilling this ideal.

The problem is that:

A) Rawkus was the last label of such a high caliber to do that

B) All of the other labels at hand are underground.

[littlejonnyfrost]

Word!

@hueybshootin Positive Energy Activates Constant Elevation

[polterguyzt]

alott of this new shit is garbage,,its retarded beyond imagination...corporate america is behind the degradation of real music..

[7odisgod]

whoever said that real HIP HOP is garbage is wack for even speaking

[00Deific00]

I can't tell if you genuine in hating on all the classic groups or if it's actually a comedy persona and you actually a fan of it all

[polterguyzt]

they are my fav group, all time man

[goingallout]

This was from Breaking Atoms, one of the TOP TEN GREATEST HIP HOP albums of all time, that right you can quote me. Main Source was no joke.

[polterguyzt]

i got 2 agree man

[pyenapple]

Why is this video cropped at the top and bottom? You're cutting off part of the frame. It's not supposed to be widescreen, man. You can even see where it's cutting off the text, it's obviously forced into letterbox.

[polterguyzt]

yo, suck on that bush

[polterguyzt]

yo, this song should be played out loued to all the war mongersm very thight shit

[madloveforsoul]

Do you agree that without these old skool Mc's rappers & b-boys, today you'll be completely immersed into todays pop music culture instead?

[madloveforsoul]

REALHIPHOPISGARBAGE.... Explain why you think old skool is wack? I bet you can't?

[RASHONBOND]

classic shit...I always loved his vocal prescence... this album will straight up smash 90% of the shit thats out now

[DaliNaples82]

I LOVE EXTRA P.

[Eurobubble70]

they should do a new version: hip-hop is not a word to play

[star870]

real hip hop at it's best

[paddy280]

at this time was hip hop hip hop

[bigpete2903]

One of my fav. hip hops songs of all time!

Classic.

[sneakerpheen]

such a wonderful song! Positive and full of knowledge! Listen to the lyrics if you can get past the raw ass beat!

[hiphopyoudontstop34]

its dope dope dope peace redvenom see him to hip hop in the area

[ghostieknows]

word

[defcreator]

shame how all these wack mc's of today killed hip hop..not many heads are making classics no mo...

[thirdshift47]

"We're goin' back to the caveman era."

[louisda1st]

HipHop was dope back then. these cats out know can't even come close 20yrs later

[thirdshift47]

Agreed.

[lmurda07]

Damn peace isn't the word to play. Its funny how all these wanna be thugs today are like peace.

[gbranch70]

I had the pleasure to work with the extra p back in 1989.He was the first person i have ever seen to walk in the studio with a duffle bag full of beats on 3.5 floppy discs. He had also mastered the sp1200,he operated that drum machine like he invented it.That was a memorable experience for me.He is today still one of the most underated producers in hip hop.

[beatkidjay]

Yeah, I think the only cat that knows that machine (SP1200) back and forward like Large does is Pete Rock.

Hip Hip needs the Tidy Bowl Man right about now, because it's backed up with shyt.

[MrDirtdevil91]

@gbranch70 wow, I woulda paid money to see Large Pro in his prime

[bnreal800]

classic jus classic times are diff now..

[DarkCeaser7]

The horns on this track are nuts.

[zamdoom]

The horn section is from MFSB's title TLC

Universal Love 1975 LP out of print

[joeunion99]

Seems like every track Main Source released is

rich and full of energy. I hated when Large

Professor went dolo. Main Source should have dropped two more albums

[rollershoer4life]

I really liked some of his solo stuff. If you can get some of his solo intrumentals albums, those are mad dope.

[Danglingchad]

"So thiry years from now, we'll wonder how, the younger generation got wild", Damn... We're more than half way there.

[2FRsoul]

the line is..."we'll wonder how the younger generation got foul"

...just saying.

[shasiege]

anyone ever hear the remix to this?

[thenewrapstyle]

i have the 12". the remix is sick. better than this.

[purplegreenery]

Peace, piece of what? You can't mean P E A C E, cause I've seen people on the streets shoot the next man and turn around and say peace.

But that's leaving people in pieces, it's not what the meaning of peace is. To me it means absence of all confusion, not the oozing and brusing...that we're all so accumstomed to..

[DUGMAC1973]

Main Source are fuckin' ill. This album is a classic, up there with the likes of OC's WordLife and Nas Illmatic...

Extra P has a nice flow

[nevawrong]

nice

[rmj84]

This version feels more complete than the LP version. Classic!

[sperdoj]

i think this is the remix off of the reissue

[sodr2]

whats the song playing at the beginning??

[ArchStantonLives]

'Peace of Mind' by S.O.U.L.

[RpKingman]

If this kind of hip hop was played on MTV today, it would be like a REVOLUTION! I miss the old days. Funny how this track sounds like the typical 1993 style, but its from 1991...

[Alexltavares]

I always loved this song and vid. The golden era of hip hop never grows old. As you were going through it you knew it was golden.

[thehoodspecialist]

There must have been so much money in the rap game back then, because I dont remember this album going gold yet they had like 4 videos out. Classic album, though.

[tariqshabazz]

There was an unusual spike in murders at the time of this video so I congratulate Large Pro and Main Source for addressing it.
