One word. "Magnificent" These were the days when Hip-Hop artists were willing to come togeather for the culture and Put out there best lyrics and flows. You definitelely won't see anything like this today. Rappers nowadays have to much ego to get on a track togeather. It's a shame at the state of hip hop today. Real Hip- Hop is dead.
back in the days you would travel coast to coast to make a collabo with your favorite emcee, and music labels were not so greedy to lock a rapper to do music always with the same cats from their catalog.
It was 36 years ago to this very day that a young Clive Campbell aka DJ Kool Herc and a handful of kids in a small, sweltering rec room of 1520 Sedgwick Avenue on August 11, 1973 started a music and cultural revolution that changed the world forever!

Doug E. Fresh's verse makes me smile every time. Smif n Wessun's duet verse is something you just never hear anymore. The cipher is dead to the mainstream.
ma uncle told me to check out this song after we had a convo bout real hip hop wen i tried to explain to him that today lil wayne is hip hop i dnt know alot of these ppl in tha video but these niggaz lyrically blew ma head off. and i dont kno who that last nigga on tha track wuz but he destroyed this shit tru hip hop gta tell ma uncle he skoold me 4 real
Truth be told...with all respect...we allow fat joe 2 be himself... cause of the lack of BX. emcee's...if we didn't have KRS..the bronx would be an old school memory....it's a shame that BK...had some of the best emcee's....everyone know's that joe try's hard 2 rep 4...morris h.s.and forest projects...but he's sad...no hate...just truth...p.s. jeru kllled it..like usual
Greetings fam....I agree...Show and AG held us down....thanks for remindin me....also Finesse and Diamond...the funny thing is ...if you would ask anyone in the Bx...if in 2008 who would still be in the game...the last choice wuld have been joe...no disrespect...i know them all...but life is funny...be well be great
Dang! i use to remember this i listen to this everyday when i came from elementary school i never got bored, but now i listen christian rap though ...God bless!
shit iz real Yo, CLASSIC!!! I`m Smif`N`Wessun 4life too :D peace Boot Camp what`s up with the rap today man ? Even Heltah Skeltah run bullshit son , even Heltah Skeltah :| my favorit rap team son , but Everything is Heltah Skeltah , D.I.R.T. Da Incredibil Rap Team that`s bullshit man I`m sorry to say this the best rap albums are Magnum Force in 98 and Nocturnal in 96 but today Sean Price and Rockness Monsta sing bullshit man damn , why ? why ? where is the real Rockness ? fuck you Jesus Price!
peace from the west to my niggaz Steele and Tek from Smif`N`Wessun , I`m Boot Camp Click 4life son ,4life , word ¡ peace to Originoo Gunn Clappaz , Heltah Skeltah , Black Moon , even Artifacts from Jersey respect all rap from Brook and New Jersey , R.I.P. hip-hop 90`s :(
No doubt man...Jeru most definately had the dopest verse on that joint...Primo saved the illest emcee till last..."Reign on competition with razor sharp confetti / Kung Fu techniques from the perverted monestary" - That shit's just too ill son!
i remember how gritty the club scene was back then when this came out....n*gguhs & chicks smokin weed in hoodies....we knew how to party...DJ drop joints like this mixed w/reggae, house and Luke...those were the days!!! thanx for postin
