[ChuckChedda]

Now that Roxanne Shante has a 'PHD' I wonder how she would Diagnose BizMarkie?!?!?.....LOL

[AnalogRockinHard]

25 years ago. Jus' like yesterday. 86 was it!

[Sierrahh9]

i memorized the song

[memhislos]

Not bad for a girl from Cornell >>>>>>Huh

[thesezpez2]

The first rap track I fell in love with

[NYC1927]

The intro to this song and the line "Stepped out the house chillin yes you knooow!" (0:58) I think those are two of the most recognized lines in old skool hip-hop. You could go anywhere and drop those lines and whoever was around you could pick up the next verse! So glad I grew up during that period to have experienced it first hand. Thanks for posting!!

[bastosrallying]

Nobody beats the Biz nobody beats the Bizzzzzz.

[Zarom2]

Cool! The Black Eyed Peas sampled the beginning of this track in one of their song!

[5waggta5tic1]

i wish rap was like this now days smh

[RaspiKush]

@5waggta5tic1 Man, I completely agree, and im a 16 year old girl, I should be obsessed with justin bieber. This right here is REAL MUSIC!

[hundredthough]

@ECKY7 doesn't ring a bell.

[kingflynn1]

[kingflynn1]

@hundredthough i remember the name of that track now it was "rap will never die"

[hundredthough]

@kingflynn1 cool! thanks! listening to it now.

[Hexcalibur]

Urban Dance Squad also sampled the laughing beat box. I have a bag of tapes that I used to record the after school rap attacks back in the 80's. Got quite a few of these. Ought to try and reproduce them for Hip Hop history preservation.

[KurtBlowTV]

this came out when i as born...86 baby...this shit is dope

[GazAssassin]

Classic

Beat box back in the day .... Sweet as!!!!

[tat0912]

[ChicanoTattooArt]

omg i was only 10 years old! but i loved rap then, i was into run dmc,ll cool j, beastie boys, slick rick ect

[smicklewickle]

always wondered if this track was recorded in 1 take?!it would make it even more awesome if it was.

[hundredthough]

@smicklewickle yes; it recorded in one take. she's rhyming off the top of her head. she was known as a great freestyler. the original verion of "roxanne's revenge" and "queen of rox" where also a freestlye, dont in one take, made up on the spot.

[trickykid73]

Fila Fresh !!!!

[171TITO]

[czwrefsteven]

Ok. Starting from the top row from right to left Ms. Melodie(Jive/RCA), Michie Mee (First Priority/Atlantic), Sweet Tee(Profile), & Sparky D(@ that time B-Boy Records label). Second row same order, one of Sparky's dancers, MC Peaches (First Priority/Atlantic), & Millie Jackson (Jive label @ that time I believe). Bottom row, Finesse or Synquis (not sure which one)(Uptown/MCA), MC Lyte (First Priority/Atlantic), Shante herself (Cold Chillin' / Warner Brothers) & Sparky's other dancer.

[Nupesruledaworld]
