AAAAHHHHH my ears are bleeding because i've been listenin to weak virgins and this tune is fuckin me raw buckin me boss they say they living like a boss but they living life in loss and lost at the cost of us and ours they got sweet living while spittin sour sounds and spoiled spellings compellin my people without a color barrier mind to bury any color they collide with combine with lust for cash and thrust for ass makes many a man and woman desolate alas when will we finish the race its on now?

Yo to the two people who are hating. Why you hating on The Chocolate Boy Wonder's remix. Besides you can go wrong with Black Star and Black Thought on the same track.

[Akirsch16]

this music is beautiful.

[PietRock85]

fuck im so glad i never threw my old mixtapes away!! never knew the names of the songs i put on it cause i recorded it from hip hop radio programs which were rare, obviously no internet yet at home so was impossible to google the lyrics.

Found a box full with mixtapes a month ago but had no cassette deck, found one yesterday and instantly started listening, so many dope tracks including this one, having a blast needless to say, havent heard these tapes for over 10 years :)

[pihpohlova]

@PietRock85 I wold love to listen to thoes mixtapes.....seriously

[OriginalOrigins]

I dnt think it's possible to this a thumbs dwn shits tooooooooo dope

[gummysanta]

[alex237886]

Hip-hop at it's finest........ When will radio play this 20 times a day rather than that Bullishhhhhhhhh....... Black Thought wooooooooooo killed it.

[rapeisweird]

[Riseagainstm3]

This instrumental is life man.

You can feel the city breathing in between the piano keys, gives me the chills...

[rashidkasim]

need a neck brace for constant head-nodding!!!!

[atrociousrc]

How have I only just heard this?!

[byro1884]

Black Thought murdered this track. Some of Pete Rock's best work too. Remember the days when you had to come harder with the lyrics and the beats on remixes? Puff Daddy ruined the remix.

[Luda1985]

@cjsr20det same from here.. never heard this remix but its play 24/7 in my car now

[MoDizzle92377]

@micpeee now your eyez are open my brother to good music. check out Blu & exile, jay electronica, joell ortiz, sha stimuli, jean grae, cory gunz, skillz, and after that I will let you know what other artist out there that you would like to check out, but I am sure you will be on that for months unless you're a hard core youtube watcher.

[brenja]

Daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaamn hoooooottttttttt

[effmunee]

This what they don't do no more in Hip Hop!

[AbsoluteChaosMusic]

magestic

[TheLEONEChannel]

Hip hop at its best!

[adamalism]

nontheless, this track is always refreshing!

[adamalism]

@ the 4k views, who cares, its not ignorance, people will like what they like, unfortunately ya most people accept what their given e.g. radio, sitcoms, movies....yes conscious hip hop is a minority in the music industry, but at the end of the day, you listen to music for self. period, so does it matter if theres 4k views or 40k views, dont be ignorant yourself and judge on assumption. I can care less that more people listen to T.I. or Soulja boy, even if they produce bad music.

[AbsoluteChaosMusic]

@adamalism exactly people alwaws complain i guarantee they dont by the albums or go the shows, thats a problem

[mhaze210]

@adamalism I dont mind T.I. so much, but i agree with everything you were saying. Explained it better than i might have. Even though some of T.I.'s shit can be good, and artists similar to him...nothing can compare to this vibe of Hip Hop. The Roots, Black Star, ATCQ, Rakim, De La Soul, Little Brother, Slum Village, Madlib, Gang Starr, and the rest of them are in their own realm, and pretty much reign supreme.

[DrProf]

@adamalism nah fuck that, people are dumb and it ruins everything

[PurpleFlush]

@adamalism

I have to disagree with this. Within a certain genera theres good music,bad, and in between. For example I can say I don't like/prefer jazz but I know what good jazz sounds like. In my opinion people listing to soulja boy or other subpar rappers do so because thats what there given and only know. There told this is good and this is wack and it eat it up, and don't judge the musics content by anything else. By content I mean rhythm, harmony, melody, structure etc.

[617wax]

lol @ 4k views...

It depresses me how ignorant most of these young cats are.

[1Savioso1]

the beginning was sick....i have this... I shouldnt of known it was Pete Rock's!!!!

[silentthawk]

this song is untouchable

[rezmoneynwkubs]

everyone on this song are legends.

[aprilmarco]

God Damm

[efosao]

This track is forever! Nuff said!

[dasun13]

[iMReCKLeSS22]

@dasun13 Its Messed Up That They Took Out Common

[jmarrvin]

@dasun13 4... the only ones who can compare to Pete Rock are Premo and J Dilla.
