[LazarusEinstein]

[Omac1979]

This so reminds me of fighting with my brother for the t.v.

[harlemhoney3170]

Her entire album is fucking awesome. I have never forgotten this bitch. I met her once in Harlem 2 years ago. I was acting like a little girl. Screaming and shit. She's my idol.

[donnjuan151]

we gave hip hop to corporate America or should I say people like Jay did. Sold us out!

[Hypestyle]

up the ante for the panties.. that was the first song heard, before the main song kicks in?

[shogunmetic]

lol, this ish is tight

[ladyandatramp]

why the hell wasn't she on Hip hop Honors?? at least performing daddy's little girl? MTV your failing..

[riderguy30]

Hip Hop Honors is VH1

[Moniqtee]

@ladyandatramp

VH1 does the Hip Hop honors and the reason is likely because the people who produce the show know absolutely NOTHING about Hip Hop... they only know what they can find today and likely never listened to it growing up in its infancy. She is a LEGEND. First female signed to Def Jam.. WESTCOAST artist too!

[blacktigerwu]

Aw man I forgot about this ...outta fuckin sight.....Nikki D ya'll !!!

[Moniqtee]

Fukin CLASSIC! Most SLEPT ON FEMALE MC ON THE PLANET!

[LJC195]

[chocolateguy72476]

Nikki D should have gotten more attention than she did; this is a classic

[Krisando]

Woo Pubic Enemy, lol why everyone judge female rappers on there looks rather then skills. Shes potent talent

[DJOVERDOSEMUNICH]

[neatandcool]

[boriquacub76]

I don't think it was to either...I do remember Nik callin out LA Star in an interview she did with Yo-Yo for a old hip hop magazine.

[pureevil77]

Classic Hip Hop

[AvEryBadApPLe]

[bluemoon95]

[Gray99]

The First LADY of Def Jam records!

Sam Sever on the beat.. Classic

[Durrtyville]

[lacroix2]

Man. I had forgotton all about this song! I had the CASSINGLE back in like '91...adding this to favs!

Another entry into my: "Golden Age of Hip-Hop Memories"

[DTH2GTR]

Definition of a Queen

[Tonfa4brutality]

This was back when females were on the same page as the men in terms of talent. I wonder what Nikki D and all the other REAL female MCs think about this current group of rap hookers who selling nothing but sex. Most female rappers today have ruined the chance any talented female, with something to say, got of making it in the industry.

[athelston]

damm you right on the money with that comment...

[Moniqtee]

You sure are right. As a woman who is completely immersed in Hip Hop (everything from 1996 on back) I agree completely. I never appreciated that Nikki wasnt given her propers. Female arttists like her, LinQue aka Isis , Rage and many others just got the once over, mostly because they were not half naked. It seems there is a large gaping hole left wide open for any female mc to come along and DESTROY the scene. Its a good opportunity to bring Hip Hop back ya think?

[odog65]

totally todays shit sux I don't know any female that can flo like this today she'd kill Beyonce any day of the week

[ichi187um]

Beyonce spits rhymes?

[odog65]

lmao

[riderguy30]

Sorry but I had to laugh at your comment. Beyonce is a singer/Dancer....Nikki D is a rapper. Two different talents.

[odog65]

it's ok and that is true but as far as being well written and being listenable Beyonce makes me want to go bald especally that put a ring on it song.

as a joke to of my friends who likes that song I took my ring off and put it on my nintendo she said if you like it put a ring on it and I like Nintendo

then again he did stop in the middle of the road during a red light got out and opened his hood because of that Lil John song lol

[chuckdeezee]

I like Nikki D and MC Lyte because they weren't really focusing on being cute or masculine. They were all about putting their heart into rhyiming and bringing that rough delivery. Much respect to the true MCs!

[EyupTopcu88]

damn she got great boobs and great lyrics of course

[FierceandFab]

Nikki D was my girl!!! Where she at??? This was my shit!

[user6946]

I do but I have not been to find out anything other than she is still in Houston and doing well.

[mykaloveskim]

Does anybody remember Choice.She was nastier than Lil Kim and was the only female on Rap-a-Lot

[lacroix2]

LOL! Yeah I JUST got both Choice albums a few days ago..classic.

[bennytootoo]

DOPE

[Codycole80]

Anybody know what Nikki's up to these days? She was tight!

[user6946]

Is this Saphyri from Flavor of Love 2?

No Seriously this is one of coldest tracks ever flowed on by a female mc. The best part is that she did it with out SEX all flow. You gotta be able to love that. Check out MC Lyte: Cappucino and Sista Souljah: Slavery back in effect and MC Choice: The big payback.

[StillaVirgin]

yea, that was what I liked about women in rap then. I blasted this song in my ear back then

[big69tasty]

Yeah girl, Female MC's today need to take lessons from Nikki D, MC Lyte, Queen Latifah, Boss even Doggy's Angels, those are the hardest female rappers to ever bless hip-hop.

[Moniqtee]

Female Mc's like this are hard to come by! BEST FEMALE ILLEST LYRICISTS! 1. "L" Boogie - if you really know Hip Hop you know who this is. 2. Nikki D - needs no intro - 1st female signed to the Legendary DEF JAM records 3. Lin Que - formerly Isis of X-Clan (youtube this name and... experience) 4. Raw Digga - another female artist that is seriously underrated! 5. Mc Lyte 6. Latifah 7. Bahamadia 8. Lil Kim - yall know Hardcore was...hardcore 9.Lady Bug 10. BOSS and in that order

[Moniqtee]

REVISED! - I thought I was forgetting a few better worth mentioning. 1. L Boogie 2. Nikki D 3. Lin Que 4. Raw Digga 5. Lady of Rage 6. MC Lyte 7. Heather B 8. Lady Bug 9. Latifah 10.Bahamadia ...and in that order...

[Moniqtee]

oh I know NUFF about dis Big nasty!

I have searched HIGH and LOW far and WIDe for this VIDEO!! WHOMEVER IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS THANK YOU!!!

NOW.. I NEED THE TRACK!!!!

NIKKI D - ONE OF THE MOST ILLEST FEMALE MC's TO WALK THE EARTH!

I MISS YOU NIKKI D!

AND FOR YALL THAT DIDNT KNOW....

NIKKI D WAS FROM LOS ANGELES!

YOU SEE THAT KINGS GEAR?!! THATS REPRESENTIN' "US" THATS WHY SHE ALWAYS WORE IT! but yall slept SO HARD on Nikki yall didnt know that huh??

SHE MAKES A SISTA HELLA PROUD

[big69tasty]

This video is heat yall don't know nothing about this.

[Moniqtee]

Hell yea, I know, I NEVA SLEPT on the RAW shit!

[big69tasty]

This is classic heat, Where did u find this? I was in High school when this came out. This is what rap was about. Nikki u need to come back and show these female mc's how it's done.

[renea1977]

OMFG!!!! I was 13 when this song came out in 1990. They don't make hip hop like this anymore!!! What the hell happened???? If you're a Generation Xer, you will remember and cherish the 80s and early to mid 90s music!!!!!

[user6946]

Me too, these tracks are so hard to find I began to wonder if I had imagined them. Like Sista Souljah slavery's back in effect. Check that one out..

[Crazymike1975]

What is she up to?

[hoodrichGMP]

look at dem tits ? nikki dd 4-real !

[jabron1973]

yeah, nikki d has some incredible titties. ever since 1990, i lust to suck on her nipples and that's on some real talk

[hoodrichGMP]

i aint mad at ya dog !

[AbiAlone]

80'+ 90'S=THE TRUTH IN HIP HOP

[ginashere]

The best thing about this song is the beat- it's ill. She got New York written all over her- attitude, voice, dress, hand movement. This wasn't the 80's though, it's the early nineties- big difference in hip-hop.

[morenitabrown]

One of the best in her time!

[bigdowg4life]

NIKKI 36DD

[smjrecords]

CLASSIC JOINT....AHHHHHHHHHHH

[callumbrowns]

I have her album Daddy's Little Girl. It is a classic in my opinion. Her flows are amazing for a female mc. I put her up the top with MC Lyte and Latifah LOL.

[jfs1972music]

This is a F*cking CLASSIC!!! PERIOD!!! I REALLY miss the 80's and 90's! Today's music is just GARBAGE!!! Peace!!!

[thanugg]

i dont know y but i used to think this bitch was so sexxxyy and i always wanted her.. she was sssoooo underrated as a mc

[AquariusPimpcess]

Thank YOU!!!!!!!!!!! I been looking for this video for years. Dis is my SHIT!!!!!!!1

[aharris82]

She can flow like water, god damn!!!!

[memyself2k]

I agree that she was underrated.

[coldrockdaspot]

Thanks for upping this.

[LLscissorhands]

One of the best but of course not getting her props.

[boriquacub76]

One of my all time favorite female MC's she records under the name Nikki Strong now...still comin HARD!!!

[bloodadvocate]

i thought nikki was one fine lady

[chiwst]

Somebody put daddy's little girl on here again,that was my avorite song from here.

[tweetie35]

she was the 1st lady of def jam then they stared haven problems so they put a hold on the new artist, that was mest up because she was tite.

[MUSICENCYLOPEDIA]

Thanks for posting this. This is the 1st Lady of Def Jam, and her album was hot and should have gotten more airplay and promotion than it did.  If you can find her other video for Wasted that would be nice.

[chiwst]

Nikki held hear own,she is very underrated

[ginsud]

1st Lady of Def Jam!
