Yo!!! I remember when this dropped there was a rumar that dude only had one hand. It's funny because..if you look at the first album cover for some reason you only see one hand in all of the pictures that he took. I thought it was true...haaaa.... Crazy!!
*sigh*... Another person sayin' "I'm such-n-such age and I don't listen to new stuff" quote again for thumbs ups. Once again, who cares who old an individual is? Just listen and like this song insted postin' that god damn line. Damn, I see folks my age do this all the time!
To all you young cats, this is how you are supposed to rap. This was the type of music I grew up on. Lyrically, none of these new rappers could ever come up with rhyme schemes and flow like Special Ed did in this song. Every lyric made sense and had meaning. When I was in high school, they would play the hell out of this song on MTV Raps. These new artist need to take notes.
It will never be the same when it comes to hip-hop. There`s good music out there but you have to look hard for it. They used to play this on MTV and thr radio. My 14 year old son listens to the same rap that I grew up on and I`m 40.
@yungac3 Im 16 but i can't agree with your opinion... Just don't be lazy and you will find some good hip-hop artists nowadays .Hip-Hop is still alive man!
I'm 38, so I'm not so little. I understand true hip hop and the south ain't got it. Fools used to roll cadies with rims and be gangsta back in the 80's and 90's. The south is always 10 yrs. behind. There are of course some good artists ou of the south, but not as many as the east or west coast!
I also have a video about special people! My mom wrote the background song and I'm singing it. It's called "Bridging Our Worlds" and no matter who you are you will be moved....
Im 17 and this is my 1st time Hearing this and I'm Pissed off my ears missed A classic. After Listening to this Song i just noticed that Hip hop is Fucking dead man..it's Fucking Dead.Every rhyme he kicked was Like Knowledge.Man this just Makes you Sigh. Thumbs Up if you feel me!!!
@yungac3 yeah i feel you.. there should be more music with message.. i mean artists can go live.. and do artist moves, but he hit the tee like on shop. did you know he was only 16? he's one of my idols, and influences... ahead of his time. -jking walking1way.. who knows when somebody remembers your name..
Don't feel too bad. I know MCs in their 30's who still think hip-hop is just Tupac and Snoop. My cousin and I were lucky to have understood it when we were still in primary school in the early 80's. This made it more enjoyable in high school. I wrote my first rhyme at the age of 10, I think. And it made more sense than some of the songs that were on the air at the time. Anyway just be happy that you are in the minority, because ignorance is not bliss when knowledge is so powerful.
You do understand that this song was meant sarcastically, right? When he says he has twenty cars, he is walking trough a car dump. When he says he has an island, he is standing on a patch of sand in the water. He's just messing around. That's what makes this song so great. Plus, that was not a cheap jacket back in the days. I once heard that Special Ed got robbed a lot. He had crazy loot, so he actually did have it made...
one of my favorite raps of all time. I wonder wat hapnd 2 Ed? Damn!! This kid was super fly!!! This was bck when true hip-hop was in demand! when u betr not touch a microphone unless u had mad skills! when u graced the microphone wth dignity and pride. when u wrote something that made u say "yo wat did that kid say??? rewind that!!" there's only a small handful of true emcees left.
High-top fades, self-awareness, crystal clear projection, words with substance, dressing with pride....***sighhh***..... memories...god I miss the vibe from those days.
