[BUILDINGWITHBULLION]

@1800LAZERFACE Yeah , but its the same way Weird Al Yankovic rips singers off. Its more like a comedy . Its nothing like a true biter like how Cool C totally ripped off Mc Shan's style for isnatnce.

[longertrax]

[rexboogie]

[e5w5i5l5]

I LOVE MI OL SKOOL DAYS HICCUP!!!

[germxv]

This was my friday afternoon song freshman year in college, that got me ready for the weekend!! word is bond, son!! lol. wow

[Jhensy2012]

Was this the only jam that had that "better than crack or smoking dirt" line? I seem to remember a remix that had them repeating that line over and over... along with a "Jimbrowski" thrown in there... anyone?

[BUILDINGWITHBULLION]

I'm looking for a song by Mr X and Mr Z where they dissed BDP and made a parody of the song Bridge is Over.... Its called " Bronx is burned down" or something. Anyone ever heard it before? They used to play it on BLS.

[anonymousent]

WIT' A 40 IN THA FREEZER I MIGHT THROW UP!! ......STILL BUMP !!

[TheKOnupe32]

damn! i miss these days of hip hop....

[sesabio]

i have this song on a cassette compolition called FRESH RAP.ive had and listened to it since i was 13.but know i have it on cd;-) THANX!

[JAA2090]

I actually never heard this cut on the radio.Some kid was jammin' in a park somewhere uptown when I first heard it. Of course as an old skooler,I was attracted to the classic EWF & Bobby Byrd "got soul"samples,good party jam.

[daking5481]

yes!!!!!!

[BIGPHILL]

this used to be the joint, we used to bang this in pittsburgh constantly, the b-side of the 12" was the joint called "kick it wicked

[hotlanta2k]

Awesome!! what a fantastic post..just when I thought a track like this couldn't be found or remembered..!

[ezlrockwell82]

I gotta go back home, dig it outta storage, and check it out. I might have the English version or something. I don't recognize the label at all. You think it's worth something??

[anonymousent]

OMG .... PLAYA - U GOTTA SEND ME A COPY OF THIS !!! .. I lost this about 12 - 14 years ago .. I got to have it again .... Holla @ me !

[kinggutta1000]

YO, TO THE BROTHER WHO PUT THIS UP, THANK YOU! I MADE THIS RECORD IN 87. NOW, I AM ON MY SPACE AS KING GUTTAMOUF AKA SICK VIC. STOP THRU! PEACE

[ezlrockwell82]

@kinggutta1000 - Yo! I got this track on vinyl with a different green colored record sleeve and label. What's the deal? Did it come out on two different labels at different times? Which one is older/rarer then? It's a big green record sleeve that says "X & Z" on the back of it.

[anonymousent]

@ezlrockwell82 They had multiple distributors back then ... i saw a Urban Rock , Big Beat , and some England distributor with this back in the day ..... i had the Big Beat 12 inch but it somehow " disappeared " ... damn it !!!

[highdivegandi]

'Old E' For Life

[JONJUAN105]

This Joint Is Hot!

[djgambitron]

OOPS! i see it's already been posted. i didn't see it when i looked for "we drink old gold". then after i spent an hour cleaning the pops out of my copy & posted it, i see 2 other people covered it. nothing wrong with the sound quality here, so there's no point in posting another one. i guess the track isn't as rare as i though.

[RonDuFrmDaBX]

Damn, I thought I was the only one who remembered this joint! LOL

[floydc1]

I agree

[djmmcee]

My bad... youtube did not put this reply with the appropriate comment... I meant the flip side joint was too nice

[nappybigz]

Yo, my man Understanding produced this joint. He's the ORIGINAL Cipher Sound from Queens. He's been rocking and producing since back in the mid 70's. Get@Me - DJ Magic

[kingdingeling013]

actually my man Livio G produced this joint. and my man Victor is mister x

[nappybigz]

Livio G from Sound Experience? That dude was bananas on the turntables as well. Remember him with Pfine on the radio. Crazy. Those were indeed the days. What about Reverend Will, and Harry O?

[UltraDamaja]

I think it is Earth, Wind & Fire but I am only 60% about that.

Someone help us out here?

[taylor4660]

bahia.....ew&F interlude from spirit lp

[pureevil77]

Earth Wind and Fire-Brazilian Rhyme

[kevinseveneleven]

this man is correct, it's Brazilian Rhyme aka Beijo. Track 6 on the All N All album.

[jrodesiler]

@UltraDamaja That would indeed be 'Brazilian Rhyme' by Earth, Wind & Fire.

[jrodesiler]

@UltraDamaja It's from 'Brazilian Rhyme' by Earth Wind & Fire.

[UltraDamaja]

@jrodesiler Thanks!

[coachman67]

[skuffedtimbz]

@UltraDamaja yeah its earth wind and fire, brazillan rap

[taylor4660]

[Reggae45s]

Its called "Brazillian Rhyme" by EW&F

[kevinseveneleven]

MAAAAAAN

How could you never have heard that joint? You need to go to Amazon and buy some Earth Wind and Fire cds

[jive5willie]

Cool!

[delvin24]

OHH SHNAP!! This is an underground classic. I remember I was in 4th grade and this song was on a compilation tape with Just Ice, KRS-ONE, Kid N Play Audio Two and whole bunch of other cats. I used to know this song word for word. "Wit' a 40 in my freezer I might throw up" (lol) Classic!!!

[STRICTLY187mUrdA]

ORIGINAL JAMMIN

DOPE

[patg074]

i fuckin can't believe somebody has this. thanks for postin. this takes me back to 6th grade in chicago. only one underground station used to play this. many outside of new york don't know this song. me and my brother and my partner used to drink old e. 3 on one forty. this was when we were real young. me and my brother are the only people in chi i know who remember this. classic!!

[UltraDamaja]

You are welcome.

[kingrob29]

@UltraDamaja You wouldn't happen to have the Rumors parody Roaches would u?

[anonymousent]

@kingrob29 I got it in the VAULT over here .... if it ain't loaded on here then i'll load it for ya .....

[therawproduct]

@patg074 I promise u that noy many people in NY know this song...only me and my true underground heads know this one word 4 word....ummmmm I see elephants that are colored pink!!!

[anonymousent]

@therawproduct dude .... i'm in Tennessee & we used to bump this shit @ tha parties every freakin' wknd .... TRUST ME / this song went WAAAYYYY FURTHER than you would believe .... we had it ( don't know how the fuck we got it ) ..... AND IT WENT HARD !! ..... Now u drinkers - keep drinkin' !!

[MyPairOfShoes]

@patg074 it even made it over the pond...got my copy of this in the ver heart of Europe about '89. Instantly loved it for the EWF sample...

[bigdaddy06105]

Word!!! True, indeed!

[BreuckelensFinest]

True Classic! Pure NYC hip hop music. I don't think this even left the Speakers of NY. They don't make'em like is anymore. We had our own slang, e.g. "HardRock!" Not the Universal "Thug" terms. This is when the rest of the world copied us, not the other way around like it is today. When we didn't have shit! But we rapped about what we wish we had, like we had it. It was fun back then! NAS said it best, Hip Hop is DEAD! LoL. 70's, 80's, 90's & very little 00's Hip Hop, I salute you!

[stillphil]

PREACH BreuckelensFinest PREACH !

[Peezo39]

Amen Sir.  Well put and definitely true.

[BreuckelensFinest]

.Thanx man. I actually send this song to my friends in Philly and LA and they never heard it before. True Hip Hop Classic that will never be honored in the mainstream but that's ok because we are the one's who honor them. The NY Skreets! LMAO

[therawproduct]

@BreuckelensFinest I feel u, I am working on it...check me out..it may be a breath of fresher air

[bigdaddy06105]

Thanks, man I been looking for this since 87 when I 1st heard at LQ, classic!

[DJStorm1200]

i remember my boys would come to the room with a case of Old E, and I'd throw this track on and blast it loud as hell up in the dorms! lol We would play this track until I couldn't lift the needle anymore (1200's ain't got no return feature lol)

[oskamadison]
