Shootyz Groove was (and hopefully still is) the shit. Great grooves--no pun intended. Tha rhythm section sets up an awesome pocket. Saw them open for 311 in '94 at Irving Plaza. Epic show.
A fantastic song I just rediscovered. Back in the late nineties, you could "save pepsi points" pick songs, and make you own personal CD's. I picked this track blindly and I'm glad I did. Possibly one of the greatest sleeper hip-hop songs of the that decade.
well wouldn't go that far, the songs off hipnosis are way better!!check em out, the first two albums blow High definition away...live also...i love Shootyze since 1995.
When I hear "rap"...this is what it's supposed to be. With real, actual music. You can tell that they have roots; you can hear the funky bass, the change in verse structure...
Thank YOU to whoever posted this, I loves me some Shootyz!! I saw these guy open for 311 at the Insect Club in Virginia Beach a long time ago. First time I liked the opening band better than the main show. We've been following them ever since...
Bomb Diggity, saw these cats in Boston in the early 90's, went to all their shows at the rat. And still, we give big money to Ricky Martin, what the fuck...
This was the very video that got me into breakdancing back when I was 9 or so. im 19 n still break to this day so for that i love this group for introducing me to the best form of hip-hop
I love shootyz, High definition was good, but in comparison, Hipnosis was much better, sound was better, vocals were better, and overall production was better. listen to the guitar sounds in High definition, very washed out and distorotion was weak, N.Y city min. had great distortion, but besides that....eeegghh.
i thought it was gonna be like illegal alien break down till i saw that the swat had no guns and then started dancing lol good vid
