THE MELLOW G-MAN(YOU WALKIN' DOWN THE STREET WITH YOUR BOX IN YOU HAND)THIS IS THE LINE THAT EVERYBODY USED TO SING ALONG WITH AND NOW THE WHOLE DAMN BLOCK IS TRYIN' TO SOUND LIKE ME BUT I'M THE ORIGINAL!!!!ROCK THE HOUSE D.J. DAMAGE FORCE APACHEE HIP HOP IN THE TRUE FORM HOLLA BACK IF ANY ONE AGREES ..................
THIS JAM TAKES ME BACK TO MY YOUNG DAYS IN BUSHWICK BROOKLYN GOING TO THE BLOCK PARTY'S IN THE AREA ROCKIN' ALL WHITE ON WHITE ADIDAS AND MY SHARKSKIN PANTS GREY OF COURSE AND A BURGUNDY MOCK NECK AND A KANGO APPLEJACK WHAT!!!!! THIS IS HIP HOP I'M LOVIN' IT POST MORE OF THIS REAL HIP HOP IN IT'S FULL VERSION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@Doobie1975 I'd put my money on Grandmaster Flash, this was the Crash Crew's first single and feels like a demo (probably an homage to Grandmaster Flash's track since he was already big at the time)
Rappers today can't hominize like old school rappers,just listen to g-man and nice and smooth and fource mc. remember they was called fource mc before they changed their name to fource md.
hey I dj'd back in the day and i still got this vinyl......we had the mc battles in the school yards in the bronx I remeber hearing this live but dont know if it was bitters or the crash crew I remember a MC white head on the mic though
i been looking all over the world for this song,. went to church today and heard this young girl pumpin' in her mp3 player, i asked her what was the name of the group and she said and i swear she looked at me said, you a old head and you dont y know lol she told me it was youtube and here i am today downloading it.
Remember this on the bus going to high school and off to sports games. Crash Crew had a tremendous run and great impact. It just psyched us up where ever we were. Go CC!
Im only one month old and i like this music!So everybody thumb me up because im one month old and i enjoy this music..........Nobody cares how old you are
I'm 15 and I like this Better than the music we have today. I would prefer grand master flash and the furious five than lil Wayne, I would prefer the sugarhill gang than T.I and I would rather prefer crash crew than any other new hip hop artists out Now.. Hip hop is not the same...
@MultiMookie13 yea, true that son, they were young and didn't have the media attention and the support from a wide range of the music industry as these cats have today but it was a inner city thing !

Harlem shit right here and Im From JOHNSON PROJECTS 115th and LEX this was the jont when it came out and still is. remember even the Bronx came to MONEY MAKING MANHATTAN...
From 75' to 85' no one touched the Bronx when it came down to HIP HOP we started it and that cannot be taken away from us...PATTERSON PROJECTS STAND UP !!!
Tired of U HipHop Conesers talking all about SULJA Boy and lilwayn sHUT A f**ck UP ADN LISTEN TO hipHop it wont die , it lives in my head. Rest of U can Only spit uppon Track , nothing More.
lincoln projects, mike and dave and the crash crew skip and rob the boogie boys w/keith short the mace monsters devastating three w/barry bee b4 dougie fresh with dougie fresh the lincoln was legendary better recognize
Ah yea! The Bronx was on fire back in 1980, 1981, 1982! Anyone between 40 and 48 from NYC know what I'm talking about. Bee Bop, Hip Hop, Graffiti and Break-dancing was all ONE
@kimdayne --man you talkin the truth...but isnt funny how all the stuff we did back then other labled as getto. Now look...a culture of music, dance and art created by children of the african dispora, enjoyed by others. Wheather their copying, sampling or mimicing...they can never duplicate what we did back in the day... Im 45 man...from nyc so man so i feel you...I remember seeing the crash crew perform, at some armory in the bronxs
Look how simple RAP used to be. Pure, Classic, Talented MEN that rapped about simple things and was just as effective as selling songs and making people feel good. Nobody is disrepecting anyone - Nobody is being disrespected. I MISS those days like no tomorrow - everybody in the joint was boogying and they had to literally throw us out when the clubs closed.
When this song was out. I had to be about nine or ten years old. This is still one of hottest jams. These new rappers don't have nothing on the ole. They probably don't know any of these records. Do your homework kids.....
This is the best rap ever !!! I love it. It's definately on my Zune player. I'm 45 and still remember most of the lyrics. People must trip when they see and hear this old lady (me) jammin' to this in my truck.
this Joint just took me back to 1980 livin in Harlem on 136th. Moc neck sweaters, Lee suits, Talelord Jeans, BVD nylons, British Walkers, Bottles of Pink Champale...aaah the real Good ol Dayz of Hip-Hop
@elriheim67 Man you forgot Sweedish Knits, Puma's, Cazals, Kangols, Gold Name Plates and Belt Buckles and so on... Man you are so damn right... The Good Ol' Dayz!
You got me with those Talelord Jeans and the BVD's! Fam, I had to respond.
You mean SWV sounds like them... a lot of the songs that are playing on the radio stations have "borrowed" their beats from rap in the 70's and eighties.... It's not a competition folks... old school vs new school is dumb people trying to make something out of nothing... it's music... if you like it listen if not don't hate just turn it off...
PLEASE DONT READ THIS. YOU WILL GET KISSED ON THE NEAREST POSSIBLE FRIDAY BY THE LOVE OF YOUR LIFE. TOMORROW WILL BE THE BEST DAY OF YOUR LIFE. HOWEVER IF YOU DONT POST THIS COMMENT something bad will happen. NOW UV STARTED READIN DIS DUNT STOP THIS IS SO SCARY. SEND THIS TO 5 VIDEOS IN 143 MINUTES WHEN UR DONE PRESS F6 AND UR CRUSHES NAME WILL APPEAR ON THE SCREEN IN BIG LETTERS. THIS IS SO SCARY CAUSE IT ACTUALLY WORKS THIS ACTUALLY WORKS
Now this is da jam dat always made my butt jump & dance my butt off where ever I was... I miss Coney Island and all my peeps from C.I. I use to hangout with.
No Hatin' Boiz an Gurlz...it's all about tha love, and raisin' people up, not hatin on people... like a bunch of crabs in a barrel, soon as one starts to make his way out, the rest of em bring him back down by tryin to climb up on top of him, instead of climbin on their own
its upsetting that this music is much better than rick ross, fat joe, 50 cent, and any other rapper of around the current area we are in, i wish i could re-invent this type of hip-hop but im young white male, and and its obvious that everyone likes the type of garbage music justin beiber and company make :(
It was a Great time and a Honor to be a part of the Foundation Of HiP hOP Culture. I Pray and Know it will continue to be a Upliftment for people for alot of years to come. Thank You for posting Much Respect..Peace, Reggie Reg Of The Crash Crew
" and you say New York City " yeah LL sampled that in his song. This song came out in 1979, and it's still bangin. When flash/furious five came out with "freedom" a few weeks later, that cause some beef between the two groups.
We were Young ,we had a little problem being afterwards on the same recording label. We were young yet it never went to fighting just doing our thing on stage. Furious are role models of this thing,yet we never disrespected each other and we held our own everytime. And it is always a honor to rock with Them.
what do they say at the beginin of the song sounds like "& u say new york city" but i dont think thats what dey be sayin LL & jay be sayin that too in their songs
When Rappers Delight first came out no body believed they woulsd let us record a Rap Record and so when it was first heard on the radio everybody thought it was live in the radio station and that is what sold their record for real! And so this one's intro sounding like the real record in the background no band and the way they intro the rap like a Jam was always introed ROCKED THE STREETS WHEN THIS FIRST CAME OUT!
I love this song, but in cast you didn't know people from NY know the the song sung by Gman and the end of the record was stolen from Rayvon and Johnny Wa Wa from the Maginficent Seven.
To McReggieReg135...you and your crew are TRUE HIP HOP PIONEERS AND LEGENDS..This is my favorite old school. I remember writing down all these lyrics and 30 years later I still remember them all...lol...such good memories..."You don't stop 'Cause I'm super cool and got a high potential necessary element and essential rockin' the house with the greatest of ease....." Your rhyme was ALWAYS my favorite part...super cool with a HIGH POTENTIAL...I luv it.....you are the best...
It was a Great time and a Honor to be a part of the Foundation Of HiP hOP Culture. I Pray and Know it will continue to be a Upliftment for people for alot of years to come. Thank You for posting Much Respect..Peace, Reggie Reg Of The Crash Crew
First heard this cut in 81 when I was in the Navy. Met a brother from NYC and he busted this out on his box during a party. And that set it off! What a night! I hadn't heard it again until today and what wonderful memories came to my mind! That's the wonderful magic of music...it can really take you there! So I wanna give a heartfelt thanks to ALL the Old School Rappers who laid the foundation for Hip Hop...GM Flash, SugarHill, Crash Crew, Sequence, Funky 4 + 1 and all the rest! 1 LOVE!
I had this 12" back in the day.. it was THE jam.. Between this and Freedom by Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five my childhood was unforgettable.. 7th grade changed my life.. THIS is TRUE old school for all those thinkin different.
WoooW! It puts a smile on my face to seeI'mnot the only one to remember those crazy,sexy,cool days of real Hip-Hop.For the record I knew Dave of Mike & Dave (they were the managers of Crash Crew and party promoters) because Dave's younger cousin was a kid named Buddy who DJ'ed himself in St. Nicholas Park.We used to lug the record crates out of Dave's house in Lincoln projects in Harlem to Randy's bingo spot or the Celebrity Club on125th so he'd let us in free!
You should be banned from youtube for bringing up Soulja Boy's name out of nowhere. That fake ass nigga has nothing to do with real hip hop, stop talking about him.
true dat these youngins nowadays don't know what real hip hop is about & if it wasn't for these cats & some other pioneers of real hip hop when wouldn't have had this Real Hip Hop to represent what Hip Hop is really all about.
ya man we have too school these new heads,,,,,,,,,peace my dude check out my new single called [do you really love] c larock youtube also breakloose from 1984 younger generation i wrote that song and perfom it.history is in the makings
Real old school hip hop that's what it is all about & these cat Crash Crew represent just that... how it was back then & the fun we had back in da days...we wouldn't have had this real hip hop to represent if it was for these cats & many other pioneers of real hip hop. Hip Hop is a culture with a combination of this & that u feel me. I love this jam & enjoy!!! ONE LOVE,
Stopping by to hear my jam again... this will always be one of my favorite old school REAL HIP HOP jams! Everyone chilling outside with their box in their hand & having fun. It was all about having fun.

its upsetting that this music is much better than rick ross, fat joe, 50 cent, and any other rapper of around the current area we are in, i wish i could re-invent this type of hip-hop but im young white male, and and its obvious that everyone likes the type of garbage music justin beiber and company make :(

" and you say New York City " yeah LL sampled that in his song. This song came out in 1979, and it's still bangin. When flash/furious five came out with "freedom" a few weeks later, that cause some beef between the two groups.

We were Young ,we had a little problem being afterwards on the same recording label. We were young yet it never went to fighting just doing our thing on stage. Furious are role models of this thing,yet we never disrespected each other and we held our own everytime. And it is always a honor to rock with Them.

When Rappers Delight first came out no body believed they woulsd let us record a Rap Record and so when it was first heard on the radio everybody thought it was live in the radio station and that is what sold their record for real! And so this one's intro sounding like the real record in the background no band and the way they intro the rap like a Jam was always introed ROCKED THE STREETS WHEN THIS FIRST CAME OUT!

First heard this cut in 81 when I was in the Navy. Met a brother from NYC and he busted this out on his box during a party. And that set it off! What a night! I hadn't heard it again until today and what wonderful memories came to my mind! That's the wonderful magic of music...it can really take you there! So I wanna give a heartfelt thanks to ALL the Old School Rappers who laid the foundation for Hip Hop...GM Flash, SugarHill, Crash Crew, Sequence, Funky 4 + 1 and all the rest! 1 LOVE!

WoooW! It puts a smile on my face to seeI'mnot the only one to remember those crazy,sexy,cool days of real Hip-Hop.For the record I knew Dave of Mike & Dave (they were the managers of Crash Crew and party promoters) because Dave's younger cousin was a kid named Buddy who DJ'ed himself in St. Nicholas Park.We used to lug the record crates out of Dave's house in Lincoln projects in Harlem to Randy's bingo spot or the Celebrity Club on125th so he'd let us in free!

Real old school hip hop that's what it is all about & these cat Crash Crew represent just that... how it was back then & the fun we had back in da days...we wouldn't have had this real hip hop to represent if it was for these cats & many other pioneers of real hip hop.
