[dezeloner]

this is totally irrelevant to ra, but can someone please tell me what team the hat that he is wearing belong to? ive been looking for this hat for years.....i doubt its an illinois hat....

[Wutwut1n1]

I wonder if he was annoyed at the crowd

[fickasephora]

[mutedmakequiet]

wtf @ allah? no need to hear that here, even if he is muslim and from that school

[Makaweli90]

Mercedes Benz :D lol

[columbusohio72]

Illinois hat

[TisRizky]

great patterns

[ThereCanOnlyBe1Panda]

Sorry to all other mcs but the brother is ill! Freestyle or WHA!

[3LD13]

1 Dislike equals the person who battled Rakim and lost

[al3xrmz]

@3LD13 No shit lol

[NJKIDDRICO973]

Forever the God of Hip-hop. You hear that flow?...99.99% of all rap today, still maintains that same structure. Incredible!

[YoussefS]

so fucking fresh...

[7thJewelProductions]

From the TV show Pump It Up! Excellent show, ESPECIALLY with the God manifesting!!

[WizdomBlack]

i had to hear it again da nigga is god lol peace

[CantosElite]

"I don't go on tour, I go to war"

[stillmatic23]

Lololol who says tupac is overrated? Hahahaha rakim changed hiphop with his flow. He is my 2nd favorite artist of all time after pac. If you say tupac is overrated and stuff, you dont have a soul....hiphop is poetry, tupac is one of the greates poets of all time. Dude spoke for so many people. he was a rich rich dude and he kept it real. If you dont respect pac for it or love him, then you dont know what life and hiphop is about...tupac shaker,rakim,nas the 3 greatest!

[slliks67]

@stillmatic23 If pac was so righteous and intelligent he would still be alive to bear these fruit you say he provided. he was overrated and he did not know if he wanted to be a g or he wanted to be righteous. but we see which side won. Look at the stupid beef with big. He provided the same message alot of rappers provide these days lies and fronts. it was because of that beef that hip hop was not the same and is still in disarray and his last name is SHAKUR not shaker

[Ryzon28]

@slliks67 i tend to agree with ya bro we all seen the doco's and now we all know he wasnt a G but he chose to feed that part inside of himself which led to the early exit i think just my lil opinion.peace to Ra and pac

[agonizing0]

You can get this mp3 at audiogetnow..com

[cortec3000]

Dee Barnes lookin lovely..too bad she got bad press from Dre's punk ass..

ANY MAN HITTIN A FEMALE IS A TESTAMENT TO THEIR OWN LACK OF SELF RESPECT AND LOW SELF ESTEEM..THEY JUST EXPLOITED THEMSELVES..SAME WITH RACISM..all in someones kool-aid, and dont kno the flavor..

[mrchulo25]

@cortec3000 lol dre is an undercover fag..beatin up a bitch dont make ya shit lol

[four15z]

The Real Master MC. Thats just one difference between the real hip-hop and the commercial trash on the radio today. I want to see lil wayne go out to a street corner in the hood and rip a freestyle like that into the camera with 30 people standing around him... Oh wait he can't.

[joeychofosho]

there'd be no 2pac if it wasnt for rakim. he technically created multi rhyming to hip hop. at the age of 17. to me rakim is the best rapper dead or alive

[MosqueNo7]

Blessed be the Progeny of Allah.  We love you brother Rakim.

[Goodlife51]

@420fmx...cat i used to be in Hieroglyphics..we mudered cats freestyling!!!...i know more than u think...and i also can tell when sum1 is off the top and this is not.....thank u sir

[sscarfface]

MUSLIM,brotherss

[liviti]

rakim was a innovator and technically a beast. ahead of his time, every emcee that follows walks in his foot steps.....2pac was a true artist, emotionally resonating but not on the same level technically or as an innovator

[Goodlife51]

@romainelettuce2..nah...freest­yle means rapping about no particular topic in some circles...they used to do it on rap city all the time...i can tell the difference between off the top and a 16......Rakim dont really freestyle...the click i used to be in was known for it,,,The Hieroglyphics....but his 16 is hot...dont confuse my point please

[420fmx]

@Goodlife51 you're speaking out of ignorance,

Rakim don't really freestyle?? hahahahaahhahahahaha

shut up the fuck up unless you actually have knowledge on an issue.

[XxXxLETHALXxXx]

@Goodlife51 This is probbly a freestyle, no diss to you, I mean you used to be in Hieroglyphics so your obviously super dope.

[MrMocroman]

@mrchulo25 then what's fake on rakim? and ok, flow is personally taste, but best rapper to me is the rapper who raps the best

[NebKheru7]

Rakim Allah is still Breathing.... 2Pac died years ago.

[mrchulo25]

@molomyotis 2Pac has lyrics that hit harder, and you can relate to more. He has a better rapping voice too. Eminem, and KRS-One don't have nearly as much material worth listening to as Pac either. Rakim is good and so are Em and KRS. Just imagine Rakim on the same track with Pac in '96 when Pac was at his prime. He would make Rakim look like one of the rappers that should of stayed to only rapping in the 80's.

[MrMocroman]

@mrchulo25 Rakim got a bigger vocabulairy, smarter rhyme scheme, more syllables and some wordplay that's harder to get

[mrchulo25]

@MrMocroman You can have all that and not be the better rapper. Pac's music was 10x realer, and I personally think he has better flow and a not so monotone voice.

[XxXxLETHALXxXx]

@mrchulo25 Seriously? To be honest, there probably wouldn't be a Pac without Rakim, I mean Rakim is one of the biggest innovators hip-hop has ever received.

[mrchulo25]

@XxXxLETHALXxXx So? Of course there's going to be pioneers. Without The Sugar Hill Gang there would be no Rakim, does that mean they're better because they paved a path of opportunity? LOL no!!

[XxXxLETHALXxXx]

@mrchulo25 I can't really argue with you hahaha your funny so.....

[mrchulo25]

@XxXxLETHALXxXx LOL don't sweat it..I don't like arguing on youtube anyway..

[XxXxLETHALXxXx]

@mrchulo25 I don't either, sometimes I have to cause some of these ppl on here are douchebags

[mrchulo25]

@XxXxLETHALXxXx yeah, a lot of idiots just don't have lives and will keep replying and writing page long comments on my page lol

[stillmatic23]

Rakim is 2nd greatest after tupac. I wish tupac and rakim woulda did work together.

[TheAdvant]

Rakim is better than 2pac

[chicofreako]

@stillmatic23 if you listened to early 2pac demos/recordings , not only does he give Rakim madd props but also sounds like the dude. In other words , there would be no 2pac if there was no Rakim .

[Goodlife51]

dope but its not freestyle.....freestyle is off the top...thats a written...

[romainelettuce2]

@Goodlife51 this sounded quite off the top...

[MosqueNo7]

Allah U Akbar. Rakim is Back!

[urbanpoems]

@MosqueNo7 Sallam bro, this guy is a 5 percenter, not a standardised Muslim, it's a very blasphemous form of Islam where they refer themSELVES as god (hence his name rakim allah)

[SETRULE]

This was on PUMP IT UP with DEE and remember this like yesterday it was 1991

[RasMarJah]

peace to the gods!

[King00000000000000]

@King00000000000000 just forget about the qiyahma bull shit and enjoy the music

[King00000000000000]

No, Music is BULLSHIT, ILLUMINATI'S WAY OF DISTRACTING THE WORLD LIKE SLAVES FOR THE NEW WORLD ORDER 2012

[k213lbc]

no thats just a way for you muslims to blame some1 else. u narrow minded faggots

[skateboardsteve409]

i agree a little as far as pop rappers like jay z soulja boy kanye west mainstream artist, but rakim naaah he ill son,

[MrRudebwoy101]

all praise to allah for rakim the lyricist

[King00000000000000]

No why should Allah praise this lyricist?? Music is Haram in Islam, and why is he calling himself 'ALLAH' there is only one Allah, He should use his Birth given name

[can1475]

selamun aleykum

this happens because of bastard ejijah mohammed,he is a big lier and he isnot muslim all fivepercenters are lier.real muslim is sunni muslim,sorry about my english from Turkey

[King00000000000000]

WS, yes i agree, Allah will Take care of them on QIYAMAH

[can1475]

actually I didnt know anything about this fivepercenters,I like listening rap music and I see rakim and I learn rakim muslim but after I see rakim Allah and ı said what is this name and I read malcom x and elijah mohammed and this nation islam ,fivepercenters ,this is not islam,yes all muslims are my brother but ,they are not my brother rakim say in holly are you track there is no god but you ,what is this shit,

[can1475]

[King00000000000000]

Really no god but u? he sounds very stupid,

[theinfamous1efcuttin]

But very Lyrical you f--kin clown!

[k213lbc]

shut the hell up with ur qiyamah bullshit and appreciate the song

[Piotrasdabadman91]

@King00000000000000

nobody gives a shit bout ur muslim views, if u dont get what his name change represents then stfu with ur dirty turban comments

[Easterknight2461]

Rakim calls himself Allah because thats his last name in real life. He is also considered 2 be 1 of the all time greatest lyricists in not just hip hop but music itself. As well as 1 of the most influential figures in the hip hop comunity. He influenced everybody from Eminem to Nelly.

[CRAZOLA3]

ONLY 1 RA

[ShadowRAAM]

the god mc!

[sab3rm4st3r99]

It'll be mother fucking sick to see him battle against the GZA.

[josj15]

wish times could go back to this

[King00000000000000]

Why are they calling themselves ALLAH?

[comptonboy118]

cus hes a muslim

[doc312]

negative his godbody 5%. No muslim would ever call themselves allah its blasphemous to their belief

[killuandyomamma]

THEY not calling themselves Allah, Rakim's last name is Allah. his Muslim name that is.

[doc312]

5% call them selves God/ Allah Its the understanding that Men in reality is God of his own life aka universe and world and that there is no mystery God. Plus alot the hip hop slang you hear word is bound, peace , G,cipher Comes from this nation

[King00000000000000]

ohh i c, the Nation of Islam, = FAKE muslims = Nothing they follow are of the teachings of our Prophet. = They call themselves muslims but r not

[doc312]

You can say that but in the 70's there was a split inthe NoI

between farrakan and elijah's son the a latter wanted to move the NOI to traditional Muslims beliefs but you may have to look more into that yourself on that current state.

[sigu655]

Its just an excuse to be/act/sound tough. The "ORGANIZATION" is just a farce using religion as their shield like the KKK.

[zeeman11]

Absolutely 100 percent true.

[munik897]

rakim the god is easily the best emcee in history fuck wayne this industry pop today aint music kna sayin

[hard2getutubname]

he is a 5 percenter.

[2manychinese]

not a real muslim .. doubt he goes to the mosque and probably eats pork too!

[derkelan]

@2manychinese why say that retard.. you know him ??

[2manychinese]

@derkelan .. yeah, me & ra/will griffin go way back

[MAJESTIcag7]

@mifR27 Being a 5 percenter is not the same as being a muslim...

The 5% are properly defined as "poor righteous teachers....who are all wise and know who the true and living god is and who teach that the almighty true and living god is allah supreme being the blackman from asia and teach freedom,justice and equality to all the human families of the planet earth"

PEACE

Majestic Allah

[trisky1234]

@MAJESTIcag7 same or different, they're all mistaken.

[trisky1234]

@trisky1234 muslims an 5 percenters that is. And christians and jews and.. you get the picture.
