  • 1.5 million dollar net worth, Hammer is not broke!!!

  • hammer pants lmao

  • you're both right. it was his charitable activity and oversized entourage all on the payroll, and it was the solid gold toilets and 20 rolls royces and the rest. and don't you think the entourage was partly charity, partly ego? seems SOME people like to have a whole clan of people moving around with them to stroke their ego and feel treated like a sultan or medieval king.

  • i am willmc

  • i hate ads 

  • Cash for gold is a scam. The dollar is going to shit and people need a way to scam the lower class out of their true wealth. But way do dodge the question Hammer. Having all that money and just BLOWING it on bullshit.

  • @TIKOMIX

    Millions of people trade in precious metals, so can you really blame a company for trying to make money?

  • Can't Touch This!

  • Facetious? Really? wow.

  • hottest pants in 2009? wow, somebody need an ego check

  • i'M SRR BUT THIS IS VERY VERY BORING, I ALMOST FELL A SLEEP

  • you cant place value on human life so why would you put THINGS b4 people??? things cant save your soul....

  • if you use your money to make more money, not to make you look like you have money, and not to borrow, you will always have money. this is what americans at large do not yet understand but are learning the hard way right now.

  • So true I've been preaching that for years

  • I agree with you and find it stupid how your comment has 2 thumbs down. What is it with Americans and the need to be number one and cant be criticized . Thats why there is the financial meltdown. Im being very general but if the shoe fits..

  • He told his creditors: "you can't touch this".

    They didn't listen.

  • If Hammer is such a brilliant businessman then how in the hell did he LOSE a $30 Million fortune?

    Hammer is a bullshitter who failed at rapping and then failed as a preacher, now he's BSing us with this gold scam.

  • Don't be such a hater. Hammer has done phenomenal things in his life. Putting people before money is how he lost his fortune. That's a terrible thing to deride or laugh at.

  • That's BS. Hammer was so materialistic: $10 million mansion in the hills, gold faucets, Rolls Royce cars. Hammer didn't invest his money in anything beyond bling.

  • Hammer could have afforded all that. But it is also a well-documented fact that he carried a 40 member entourage. He made sure that there never was and never will be anything as hype as a Hammer concert. And it really cost him.

  • hype

    haha

  • @TruthandJustice101

    Hammer also supported like 500 people. Hammer did what the average American does, but just on a bigger scale since he had more money. Hammer is making a comeback so he's actually better than the average American financially.

  • @TruthandJustice101

    You are incorrect. Hammer tried to save a lot of people from his Oakland neighborhood, to keep them off the streets and stop them from doing illegal activity, he would put them on his payroll. All his money did not go to just "bling". His payroll monthly to keep those young people off the streets what thousands of dollars. At least he tried to help his old community. Most celebrities take their wealth and spend it on themselves only.

  • i made s'mores, and fed my cats during this interview.

  • so sad.

  • o wow how the hell did they get hammer I use to love him when I was a kid.

  • You'd go to sleep in a shack but wake up in a mansion.

  • Hammer has been everywhere, lately. and I'm glad. Hammer is a notoriously nice and generous man. I saw him do a show for kids in a San Francisco Park. He was fantastic. 2 Legit 2 quit!!!!!

  • I love HAMMER!

  • What four?

  • Can't Touch This, all Hammer has done since 1889-two Super Bowl Commericals!

  • Please, Hammer, don't hurt 'em

  • Pipeline is right???!!!!?!?!? All you have to do is watch the "pumps and a bump" video. That'll answer that question. Oh, I'm sorry, that was not right.

  • Huh?

  • Cash 4 gold is a scam. You trade in something valueable for cash, which is essentially worth nothing. When the dollar fails and is replaced, you will know what i mean.

  • man they got hammer what he take 5 grand he fell off

  • That was a really fun interview.  I was expecting it to be boring.

  • Anyone know the name of the song at the start of this video keep hearing it on TYT but no idea what it's called

  • I think it's Artichoke by Spanking the Monkey

  • its their theme song they commissioned (sp) back in the day.

  • How can someone so intelligent loose all his money..........

  • dumb and he was maybe cracked out

  • Hammer DID NOT do DRUGS!

  • yeah but the nigga did somthing to blow all that damn money crack or not maybe just a DUMB ASS

  • Right, but it was not crack.

  • He was helping all his friends. He brought the whole hood with his to fame. He also spent a lot of money. But he was a good guy though.

  • LOL Steelers won!! The commercial was cheap and corny. Did Hammer really have to get into all those cheap outfits? LOL.

  • ok.

    cheers!

  • yeah,lets give them all your gold for green paper ,

    before they devalue it and you are completly screwed! great !!!

  • from cant touch this to cash for gold.........way to move up in the world.

    at least he is like a typical rich asshole and started talking about losing money when real folks are hurting.......if it were a bank CEO you wouldve heard em going, oh god i cant by my yacht now, and i had to downgrade from a lear jet to a prop plane.

  • Can't touch this.

  • YOU are an awesome person. You are great!!!!!

  • The question that needed to be asked is if he ever thought of Hammer condoms, also known as baggy magnums!!!!!

  • iam watching the obama advertisment the magic n****&&&&& lol hahahahahah

  • Please hammer don't hurt em!

    A bit sensitive talking about stuff from long ago.

    It's understandable that there's more in your life going on than what happened in your MC Hammer days.

    But guess what? No one would give a RATS ASS about you, nor putting you in a comercial or interviewing you on TYT if it weren't for what happened back then so you can't expect people not to ask questions about it.

  • STOP! its 11 o clock!

  • haha good for u guys on the intro w some music finally

  • How lame is Hammer, what a loser

  • Hammer isn't as lame as you!!!!

  • Hammer keeps ducking those questions about him getting checks. Funny shit

  • I was stationed in Turkey during the 80's. We called those pants 7 day shitters.

    But I'm wondering if the cash for gold phenomena is an attempt by comex or the national banks to cover having sold more than they posses.

  • MC Hammer.

    The man that is responsible for me making a fool out of my self on dance floors back in the day.

    Seems like a nice guy actually.

    Hes not rap "old school" thug, more like "legendary school"..., or whatever you wanna call it.

  • In my area the doppers are breaking into homes looking for gold. Hmmm I wonder if some of this 'cash for gold' stuff is stolen. BTW my house was broken into twice.

  • Of course. Just like something you may have bough used could have been stolen...

    If peeps do breakins where you live while people are in the house you should think about enforcing the bedroom doors and windows. Just so they can get to you, or your family, while they are inside. Just saying...

  • The breakins are done during the day. Usually two people riding bikes. I'm retired so I could easily be home when a break in happens. I got an electronic security system installed and I'm thinking about getting a handgun.I also put wooden stops in all the windows to block the window. Do you have any suggestions?

  • Well, a alarm system wont stop it from happening, but they will usually only use about 10mins in the house. Securing the most valuable stuff past 10 mins would be smart.

    Such as a safe or similar.

    Still you wont keep your tv in a safe. Am not for"casuals",peeps that dont use guns on a regular basis, to have hand guns in the house.Its a higher risk of accidents than anything else,unless you live in"gangland"of course.I would rather get a suitable dog, safer for you,the house and your kids kids.

  • Thank you for that info. I did buy a blank handgun that are the kind used in movies. I have experience with shotguns and handguns and also worry about accidents. A blank gun which is legal is very realistic and enough for me to scare someone.

  • what are u gonna do if they call your bluff? if someone has a real gun your kinda fucked.

  • Well any other way I'd be in the same situation, you do understand that I don't want my Grandchildren killing themselves with a real gun found in my house. Also I don't want a real gun stolen from my house and used in a robbery or a murder.

  • well, even if you have a real gun, if they call your bluff, you're fucked anyway aren't you?

  • well u might be but at least u have a chance to shoot them before they shoot u.

  • The music he "created" is coming back? Wouldn't that be Rick James and James Brown?

  • And if you really want to be specific, there's plenty of different sources you can cite for new jack swing. The credit mainly goes to Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis, Teddy Riley, and Babyface, the producers behind the biggest acts at the time.

  • Who is more pathetic: Gary Coleman or Hammer?

  • Damn, I'm stumped! Well, Coleman has been a pathetic has-been much longer. It has been all downhill since puberty. But, obviously, Hammer fell much farther from a higher peak.

  • I have to say Coleman lol

  • Gary Coleman, hands down. Their careers are similar but at least Hammer got laid,

    Coleman lost his virginity to that red haired lady he married a year or so ago.

  • I don't think Hammer came as low as to being a security guard.

  • DO NOT take any financial advice from Hammer, a man who squandered a $30 Million fortune.

  • Hammer got rich and blew it like he had Micheal Jackson money.

  • You should trust the MC with your cash because Hammers Don't Hurt.

    Truef!10101010101010101

  • give up your gold and get worthless paper that keeps losing the value it does not have awesome!

  • Can't touch this!

  • Has been.

  • No: classic, because he skyrocketed something 20 years ago and you still know his name

  • Hammer pants flying off the shelves, but Hammer is not getting a dime... Ouch!

  • Don't do it. Once they get your metals they can give you what they want and you won't get it back.

    A $1000 coin with a $200 premium will get you $700 with these scams.

    A pawn broker would be a better idea than these con artists.

    And there is no insurance on the packages so if your gold gets lost you are responsible.

  • He was quite an asshole.

  • Hang on to ALLLLLL your valuable golds and jewelry!

  • Cash for gold? That takes you back nearly a hundred years? To those who know.

  • mc hammer haha he was famous just like vanilla ice and then now he is broke, hhaa ahaha haha

    he is an example of what not to do once you become famous, future rappers take note.

  • A friend of mine used to have two pair of "Hammer pants". I hope that he never sees this. (He's over in Iraq right now.) His head might explode.

  • what will MC hammer admit???Lemme say this without watching it............His puffy trousers in Can't touch this was ridiculously hideous!

  • Wtf!

  • Hammma, He aight.

  • What team does this MC Hammer guy play for anyway?

  • zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.­..........

  • reve tnemmoc tsrow. emit remmah

  • awesome interview...guys Hammer is still a pretty big draw and you can't blame him or TYT for plugging his new gig. Thats how interviews typically work with entertainers, you get to have them on your show and in return they get to receive a little exposure.

  • I Heart Hammer....

  • Hammer got real quiet when Cenk asked him how he lost that money. Hammer's still sore about that.

  • Comment removed

  • wtf? this is surreal.

  • DON'T SELL YOUR GOLD TO THE JEWS!!!

  • Yeah, they'll make JEWelry out of it.

  • MC Hammer on TYT. This has GOT to be a show from an alternate universe. I guess he's on cuz he's wrapped up with the Superbowl and Cenyk is a Superbowl fan?

    Not really sure.

  • best comment ever

  • There you go then. you should totally come over and let me rape you.

  • this is exactly why I stopped listening to talk radio.

    advertisements

    this made me lose some respect for the young turks

  • hammer is just too legit to quit. hay hay

  • Hamma Time!!!!!! YeAHH!!

  • Hammer was a good sport about the bankruptcy questions. A lot of people would have gotten upset.

  • mc hammer, so elusive

  • Nice photo you guys chose for him, LOL!

  • cash 4 gold is a scam, never give your gold for cash.

  • "cash 4 gold is a scam, never give your gold for cash. "

    No shit. The actual value of the jewelry is likely more than the amount you get for just the gold.

  • Yeah my professor told me you can take it into anyone of those places that melt down the metal and get about the exact amount that it is worth.

  • Hammer has a story that anyone with a lot of money should know about. You shouldn't be able to go through as much money as he had in a lifetime, yet he went through it in a few short years.

  • MC Hammer is cool and smart. I love him!

  • Hammer dotn b a mark, released the tracks u recorded wit Pac

  • hammer is a moron. Talking about his bankruptsy 15 + yrs ago is 'living in his past' but talking about hammer pants is perfectly okay. What a fucking dumb ass hypocrite.

  • The hammer pants are unbound by time. They are past, present, and future.

  • who is this man??!!

  • you don't know who mc hammer is?

  • This is the Information Generation.

  • What a whorebag. Aren't you gonna be a little slut.

  • wow!! Hammer is pretty defensive.

  • cash4gold = scam, they send your 1/3 the street value of the gold. google cash4gold and look for cockeyed's website

  • U gotta respect Hammer!

  • mc hammer eats giraffe penis's,spread the word!

  • love ya Hammer .. I still think you are the great MC. Hammer.. God bless

  • have you ever seen a one titted porn star trying to get payed?

  • hammer is with it( you know the net and stuff) unlike a lot of people his age.

  • JESUS CHRIST! Fire your sound guy, or get him to level out your voices! I watch your show every day, for as long as I can stand it, but this is getting on my last nerve. Please address this issue,before more people unsubscribe.

  • I completely agree. I LOVE TYT, but the sound levels are horrendous! Someone doing this on a webcam in his basement would do a better job with leveling the sound. What are those guys in the studio doing all this time?

  • Yeah, they're phone calls are usually a bit loud and noisy, but the sound of the mics in the studio are actually a lot better in this video than ones i've seen even a month or so ago.

  • please unsubscribe so we don't have to hear your whining anymore, thanks

  • STOP! HAMMERTIME!

  • Someone already said hammer time and cant touch this what do i get to say? :(

  • "Can you spare a dime?"

  • Ok delete your comment and i will say that :)

  • Too Legit to quit!!!

  • But if you guys say it and dont delete your comments i cant say because someone already said it!

  • Comment removed

  • HAMMER TIME !

  • Pumps n tha Bumps!
