@APACHEE39 Too much masturbation then? And it's not your channel faggot, it's MrBongoRecords channel. I guess retards are easily confused? If you weren't a moron, you'd just use CTRL + in firefox ( but I guess you're probably a bitch-ass Explorer tard) to enlarge the font and type in proper case like a normal person, but I guess you're too ignorant to think of that?

[jamalah317]

I am from the Bronx born and raised. D.J. Kool Herc is from the west Bronx. Cedar park is were he would D.J. In the South Bronx we had Africa Bambata and Disco King Mario and they would perform at J.H.S 123, 100 park on Story ave I could go on and on. Movada Mawaii is my name for the record and my cousin is Silk Smoove. Bx/Harlem. we know the truth!

[TheLegacySound]

[EXTERMINATUSUS]

Original is The Shadows - Apache.

KOOL DJ HERC FROM THE BRONX IS THE GENUINE FOUNDER OF THIS ERA.

[OldMoneyVanderbilt]

[Dcyde86]

[layomao]

[Corey6496]

1:52 is my favorite part!

[b7k1l8yn]

This is the Hip Hop national anthem. The NYC the originators know.Peace to the Zulu Nation,Gods n Earths,Breakers, B.Boyz and the fly Ladies.1

[StefanR10]

Switch A bit catchy

[thisntchicken]

amazing

[Wonka275]

Jim Motherfucking Gordon

[doghartdon]

type in dee patten - whos the badman

[DeepNYCHouse]

One of the worst breaks in history, just kidding =)

[andy589]

Dont like to spam, but everyone should check out this watch?v=4W7FtOLH4Po over the classic break in this song. Not by me, but by a talented dude who deserves more recognition, Herbal T Cheers!

[bellbrass]

Jim Gordon rules the earth at 2:22

[ainsley24]

absolute gem of a track!!

[jimhack3]

Classic!! Nuff said!!

[Trane14PL]

We meet again agent 240p ...

[ChickenWing32195]

Legendary break! True classic! Pretty wild for a group of guys who got together in a studio messing around and made this epic beat when they weren't even considered a real band. Nothing today even comes close!

[whatupmaaan]

wow. this had to be fresh as fuck back then. cuz it's still fresh today and may be forever

[ahmaniel]

Between 2 and 3fitty - 1minute and fifty seconds of one the best solos ever

[bboytracks]

Jim Gordon on drums. King Errisson on bongos. Perry Botkin Jr on production. Amazing combination!

[latenightcreep18]

this song is incredible

[insanelook]

Well, what to say, simply the # 1 anthem of all samples, with "funky drummer" of course.

[junya74]

@cakafella hilarious

[iHyphenTV]

best starts at 2 25

[iHyphenTV]

neguin got off to this at the bc one

[JaboBabo]

If you're a BBoy or a BGirl this is part of your DNA

[DankulousTV]

Best combinations of instruments, rhythm and melody. Soul + Funk + Jam

[emir4nt]

i dont know any other song thats sampled more than this one

[neLAsesh]

@emir4nt I do. Its called Funky Drummer by James Brown

[stupidjunk978]

A band like this would never get signed these days by any major record label. Such a shame

[braindeadapocalypse]

It took me almost breaking my chair to realize I was moving around so damn much.

[Zaire986]

Won't sound like this ever again............

[roscoegino]

Hip hop's gene pool.

[CDsnuts000]

Action Bronson WOOP WOOP

[whatupmaaan]

1:51 NAS - made you look

[blancmage31]

jump on it!

[sinthetix1]

14 people's heads were used as bongo drums once a while

[DrVonNostrand]

you can't help but want to breakdance to this, even if you can't!!!

[joeivanni]

snatch

[nickyc2011]

I wish hip hop was still about the funky breaks rather than the pretentious, posing tossers we normally see these days - I include Ice-T in that sentiment.

[whatupmaaan]

@nickyc2011 i love all the "pretentious, posing tossers" but yeah we need more of this shit, it sounds so good in hip hop

[liquidafro]

MAN many memories



[MrSupermendigo]

Fly as ever.

[rocknrollstar4ever]

This song is amazing. I love the fact that its been used as a remix in most major hip-hop and rap artists music. : ) Pure Genius!

[apollyon1]

@daoriginaljay anyone who wants to be in a minority that badly doesn't understand hip hop... oh, wait, what?

[apollyon1]

An undeniable classic - as fresh now as it ever will be phenomenal. showed the western how it was done.

[cakafella]

i fucking dare you to blast this in ya ride and do less than 90mph. my car wouldnt slow down til this song went off.

[cimba03]

Where rap started. Break dancing, mixing and rapping loooong before Sugarhill Gang.. Bronx River PJ's, school yard jams, standing behind the ropes.. Good memories..

[Piggleist]

IM HERE BECAUSE OF FORUM FOREVER YOUNGBLOODS

[MrSuperSinful]

[kiuhy8]

pure dope nostalgia

[gaphary]

Legendary. 

[atybooking]

watch the throne.

[Giobeatg]

neguin vs Just do it...

[BluAlaris]

I like the bongo part from 0:00 to 4:54

[a92lovin]

Here because Kanye sampled it on Watch The Throne, and I like this track way better.

[2fcknGaay]

You really had you have "lived" this one (1976-79) to truly understand - Boogie Down Bronx - Arthur Park; Echo Park & the Fever!

[ChiefRock]

I really love the part when they play the bongos.

[EZ95]

Thanks nardwuar and Questlove for bringing me here

[bigsmokeynyc]

[iannickCZ]

Unbelivable, that I heart this song today for a first time and I must listen it over, and over again. (Only 38 years from release, huh). Thank to Huw Stewens and Introducing podcast.

[KiDiN2020]

[DarkusMcFarkus]

Back Spin, Back Spin!

[Koolvedge]

[Bailey2763]

QUEST LOVE BROUGHT ME HERE!!!!!!!

[DatHowYzer]

@Bailey2763 daaaamn, i saw that video too, but you gotta know about apache beat.. damn.. what are you doing with your life?

[Bailey2763]

[88mates]

[ELNINO169]

Love this song. We use to love breakdancing to this song when i was in high school. Classic!!

[RandomHero486]

This is the original, correct?

[GAWSTheReAsOn]

@RandomHero486 no it is a cover but i think its better... original was written by Jerry Lordana and the first people to release it were the shadows... this is the best... i think...

[RandomHero486]

@GAWSTheReAsOn Thanks for the info! And i totally agree with you

[GingerPhilG]

@GAWSTheReAsOn Too different to the original to call one better than the other, I think. Both are excellent though... :)

[Aristotelezz]

This one of the best versions of Apache. Maybe even better than the original...

[LAZARW0LF]

Forum Forever



[wickey666]

this should be used in some Tarantino movie..

[acarouselofantics]

@wickey666 It sounds like it should be.....good idea!!

[CecilyHeron]

@wickey666 I was just thinking the same thing! :D

[helterskelter1980]

@wickey666 His next movie, Django Unchained, is a western spaghetti movie. Would be perfect for that!

[Blackscorpion1963]

@wickey666 Ha crack me up. Right on comment!!

[MegaGrillow]

THEME OF ''B.BOY''the game 

[jfo1014]

I hear this song and, for a brief moment, I'm Steve Nash.

[dcaseng]

This song makes me feel like i can kick anyones ass! There should be a video of Bruce Lee with this song.

[jfo1014]

@dcaseng fucking priceless comment, spot on!

[dcaseng]

This song makes me feel like i can kick anyones ass!

[thetitecaps91]

Kool Herc + this song = St Graal of hip hop (breakbeat)

[richiebear1969]

I think of the VH1 special "New York '77 "

[jsmidash]

This makes me wanna dance. No new music makes me wanna hit the dance floor like this

[TampaRicanSunshine]

This is where I say break dancing music really began...between this tune and Jimmy Castor Bunch's "It's Just Begun" and "Soul Makossa" I would love to hear a remix of all three tunes.... :-)

[groovvvirgo]

I just lay back and let the big beat lead me...

[SuperJsms]

que buenos!

pero que bien suena!

[ulquiorra1992ify]

who's remeber the fresh prince of bel air dancing that song? ;)

[ComeonIdontcare]

Awsomeness at 1:46 ?

I think so

(Snatch trailer used that very part was used in the Snatch trailer .. epicness of epic)

[avantgardeAleyo]

My god, how can it be that I never heard of this before? It is fantastic! Whew.

[ZanzibarJose]

@avantgardeAleyo this was RAP was new kid, U missed a lot of good times

[AUtiger314]

Nas also sampled the break of this song for his song made you look

[Bombalino73]

Kool G Rap sampled this on Men At Work

[reymisterio56]

Missy Elliot sampled this song but the song i don´t remember the name

[FallenxPride]

@reymisterio56

its "we run this"

[99glad]

Kool Herc is a Einstein of HIP-Hop Culture!!!!

[Davmm96]

[roscoegino]

RIP GIL SCOTT HERON

[smoothpants]

- The Foundation! The Backbone! The Bedrock of Hip Hop!

[baimdeath]

DOPE!!!

[Nivekrst]

Everyone's so worried about what to call this/label this. How about BADASS! 

[Cartuch01415]

Hip-Hop Anthem of anthems

[MultiDanny360]

who is the 11 people who who dont lik this.......haters!im a 10 year old girl and i can do a freakin hand stand.....yea i break!!!

[nellie2581]

I think the Belgian rap group Benny B sampled this for their rap song Do you speak Martien.

[Cometsamba]

johnafirth,I understand that,it could be argued either way.Obviously the Shaodws and the Ventures were aware of each other,and covered the same tunes etc. Ventures sound has roots in DIck Dale who really is a surfer,who played to the SoCal surfers.I would callthsi tune surf,even though the Shadows weren't necessarily a surf band

[nellie2581]

@Cometsamba Their music is very similar like Surf music.

[shedsta]

as featured in BBC's Arena programme 'Beat This-A Hip Hop History, 1984.......

[officialmcsi]

awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[IsnoDeGrimsby]

11 people just don't know music...

[jipidibipity]

I simply google "100 greatest funk songs" and come up with a lifetime of DJ samples. ;-)

[Cometsamba]

Hip Hop in it's purest form. Which means a mixture of influences.This tune was originally a Surf Tune.
