Slick Rick - Children's Story

[Luchini690]

ugh annoying hipster rap fags are annoying. hip hop aint dead. Mainstream hip hop in entertaining, underground hip hop is thought provoking, lil wayne is awesome, slick rick is awesome, give it a rest already...

[xYouthAttackx]

this was when def jam was reputable

[YFLOInternational]

Those piano keys are timeless

[raptors11111]

holy crap 2.4 million views. I didn't know slick rick was so popular

[nunoooooooooo]

Groups that still make hip hop barely living in the US: Macklemore Zion I Atmosphere Gabriel Teodros The Physics Cyne Jazz Liberatorz Blue Scholars Common Market Ohmega Watts Living Legends .... Other than that in Europe it's pretty solid, plenty of very good stuff still today.

[remoc999]

[HouseMusicmanDan]

[SuperRunner50]

[nasheasanders1]

Slick Rick is my favorite rapper

[kurtace244]

This is real rap not shit that is on now

[The1orangeDude]

dave tha man shootin up dope dont no the meaning of water or sope

[CDchanman]

I remember these days, when records had the best sound and gas at $1 a gallon was too high. Today the title "best rapper alive" doesn't say much. People need to know, money comes AFTER fame, and just because your rich, doesn't mean you can rap for shit.

[danijeldivic]

cheek my channel for eazyer axes to real hip hop.lets bring it back!!!

[cianamja]

2:48 I love that part when he dropped the lil package and how they picked it up

[cianamja]

[reelm4f1486]

[Psycho81588]

[jmelanie91]

hip-hop ain't dead it just had a heart attack

[OscillatorCollective]

RICK THE RULER!

[XxHeRBMaNxX]

Tha guy at the beggining looks like saddam hussein :D

[paolosch8]

Hey, why you say Hip-Hop is dead?

Maybe is Hip-Hop dead in your Life, but i represent Hip-Hop the whole day...

I hear it the whole day with youtube and with my radio and I dance Hip-Hop the whole day (Breakdance).

So please people abide by the Real Hip-Hop! It ain't dead, it's in our blood!

It's our Life-Style!

[baygangsta]

@paolosch8 hip hop is dead bitch

[paolosch8]

@baygangsta Haha, only primitve motherfuckers just like you say something like that.

You say Hip-Hop is dead so you don't know what Hip-Hop is. Please stop hearing Hip-Hop and become older... Fool !

[oldschoolhunter]

@paolosch8 young punk, think that shit you listening too these day on the radio and m.t.v. , you think is music.....ha ha ha , I THINK YOU VOTED FOR OBAMA.

[Nini042595]

@oldschoolhunter wat r u talkin about.....

[paolosch8]

@oldschoolhunter I said Punk Bitch? I said Hip-Hop! I mean I can hear it still with the radio with CDs... I only want to say that there is still Hip-Hop, but only when you believe in it, when you represent it... cause Hip-Hop is not all this Gangsta Shit... Hip-Hop is more...

[originaldzine]

@Gaymanx

you gay

[tonyzackery]

real, conscious hip hop from the early days...it just doesn't get much better than this...

[alex011096]

man wtf hip-hop isnt dead!!!!!!!!

[MusicandPrayer]

@alex011096 THANK YOU!

[yahawahdah1]

hip hop is dead and capital killed it

[lastalivecrew]

REAL HIP HOP!!!

[schoolshow94]

@toontownsalty98 you do know that the best rap albums have heavy references about weed

the infamous, the chronic, illmatic, the war report, get rich or die tryin like c-mon

[2Lucky]

The only thing is the video doesn't match the song. But it's funny as hell! lol

[cantstopbeingfresh]

Todays rap ain't nothin, but i still like it but like Drake, Lil Wayne and jay z didn't pay attention to These great rappers.... Slick Rick, Biggy, 2-pac so there just starters compared to these Old Timers

[whatthehellvideos]

this song is like the movie juice

[EnterTheMeleeProd]

1:48 I lol'd

[BABU91100]

They don't make beats like this anymore

[Puhngkee]

"Knock 'em out the box Rick!

Knock 'em Knock 'em" Classic :)

Its sad when some people don't even know the REAL Hip hop :/

[wierdskater]

[gansta96799]

@wierdskater new whack rapers happened

[Gthang4Lyfe]

[HiHaTeRzS]

[dezerteagle12]

[EnergyOM]

Yeah the slickest shit from back then!

[darling1two]

I love this song by Slick Rick you Go!!!!

[Murchye]

yo stop sayin that hip hop now-a-days dead coz it aint it just went underground. but yeah i agree that the mainstream is shit, but underground is still keepin it real like Immortal Tech, JMT, AOTP, Lowkey, Evidence... But still nothin can compare to old skul hip hop... REAL HIP HOP FOR EVER !!!!

[babeepam]

R.I.P real hip hop. you will be missed. :(

[kyriegospel]

one of the best song by one of the best lyricist of all time.  HIP HOP CLASSIC.

[MsKimsingh]

MAKES ME PROUD TO BE BRITISH

[memen8881]

the song is awesome but video is confusing

[WodanBlog]

Slick Rick Big L GZA Chuck D Ras Kass Kool G Rap Big Daddy Kane Notorious BIG

Man I love Rap 88-95... the golden years.

[Mrmeat696969]

This is how U tell a fuckin story!!!!!!! The art of story telling!!!! Big up to Out Kast too,, they know how to tell a story!!!

[M4LLEY]

thing is if these old skool artists did make a come back and got as much publicity as they did back then wouldnt it end up goin mainstream?

hip hop like this needs to remain underground!!!

[waapli]

I'm not a fan of modern rap, it's really sad how rap has developed. Both lyrically and the beats. This is quality rap!

[mgsdini95]

lolololololol

[ardtown1]

Once upon not long ago......

[purplejanee]

Dear REAL hiphop, please pretty please with slick rick dougie fresh and the other greats on the top, come back???...u r truly missed : , (

[Nodrama89]

Best story teller ever!!

[devlinwonka]

i miss the days rhyme pays , dont sweat the tech and straight out of compton it wasnt to much east/west until people started dying

[DementedXShenzi]

i had a sore throat/cold the other day and i had this british accent and people kept saying i sounded like him...it was an honor

[coldrockdaspot]

Classic and timeless Hip Hop, the video is hilarious.

[beans4breakfast]

Dope song and video, too bad video doesn't follow the story.

[J1mmyleef50]

I set around thinkin about all the '90s rappers depressed and suicidal, until soulja boy came on the scene. he made me forget about: 2pac, biggie, Eazy-E, Ice-T, Scarface, Ice Cube, Slick Rick, Mobb Deep, Nas, Big Pun, Twista, Do or Die, Master P, DJ Quik, Mc Eight and Above the law just to name a few. '90s rap is dead......get use to the new stuff. don't you guys feel like dancing again?

[Letstravelbackintime]

@J1mmyleef50 yeah I feel like dancing, but not to bubble gum shit where some stupid fuck rants on about how hes a real g but hes just a studio gangster. I dont dance to that shit, dont know how the hell people manage to dance to that stuff

[playa871]

I love this song, but the video makes no sense.

[bednarskimatthew]

is he from England? he sounds like it

[35nomoon]

this is the true sound of REAL HIP HOP, this cut will be heard from generation to generation not the shit they call hip hop today. Todays rap is garbage, its heard today and gone tomorrow. LONG LIVE OLD SCKOOL HIP HOP !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[CarsonComeback]

lol love this song, old school classic :D

[msluckyb3ar137]

i saw him perform this in concert last night i lost my freaking mind... dude still has it...

[lightheart5]

Slick rick can rap

[smoutlaw78]

Also see Slick Rick rap in Chamillionare's "Hip Hop Police" Song

[smoutlaw78]

Also remember that Slick Rick raps in Chamillionare's "Hip Hop Police" song

[rambo4229]

classsis tunne

[dripz2012]

i miss hiphop damn hiphop is dead =(

thnks a lot soljaboy u fag

[Militarymight101]

@dripz2012 sorry but the second rap hit the south thats when it died

[darling1two]

@dripz2012 It was not just soulja boy it is the hip hop rap whatever they call it. All of this started after Doug E Fresh, Sugar Hill Gang, Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five etc left the scene. It started way before soulja boy.

[YourPalHDee]

@dripz2012 what!? how is HipHop dead!? go listen to Hilltop Hoods buddy. They always give me hope for hiphop.

[xInsaNe88]

@dripz2012 how is hiphop dead? we still have mos def, talib kweli, lupe fiasco, j. cole, nas, eminem, blu, jay electronica, kanye, common, jay-z etc

[Obediah17]

@dripz2012 it was dead long before soulja boy contributed, the stuff he does isnt hip hop its more dance anyway

[beezydatwarrior21]

@dripz2012 Hip hop isnt all the way dead...i think theres a few rappers (just a few) keepin the game alive..i think J Cole is the future of the game

[1boab4]

hip hop is close to being dead ur true but good rap can still be found verywhar but none of the commercial shit u gotta go underground to hear good rap now adays and if u in prepaired to look for some reall good hard rap then dont complain and yes soljaboy is a fag and is shit but we cant blame everything on him the rest of them pussy ass bitches are fucking up what we like as well

[robig2000]

epic

[toontownsalty98]

todays rap is only about weed,women, and sex

[SkankingKyle]

@toontownsalty98 unlike almost all 90s rap?

[KevoRidesFit]

@toontownsalty98 you forgot cars and jewelry...

[hungryallday]

@toontownsalty98 if i recall pac and big and other rappers from that time did too. i think you mean to say rappers are just making dumb ass dance songs knowing damn well they can't dance. smh

[vwrob5]

@toontownsalty98 and KRS-one new album is tha shit

[TheGrandmastercash]

@toontownsalty98 lol although i agree, ... ALOT of hip hop was about women nnd sex :) But its still the best

[cuzzins4life]

@toontownsalty98 and dnt forget money

[ahmad312]

@toontownsalty98 it was back then. Todays rap isnt rap its autotune. Devin the Dude is a sick rapper (weed references tho), Kool Keith (All Sex). RIP Hip Hop.

[Whiran]

What's wrong with weed references? Most good rappers reference it, almost every song on Illmatic has at least one marijuana reference.

[ahmad312]

@ahmad312 Nothing is wrong with em. I'm just pointing out drugs, sex, money is part of music. Thats not what makes todays music bad its other things.

[DementedXShenzi]

@toontownsalty98 dont forget killing...

[TwistedN]

@toontownsalty98 hip hop was about having fun and trying to get a girl now its shit

[TOEdaJAMMUH]

@toontownsalty98 not gonna lie i love those three things. there's still good rap bein made you just gotta look harder for it

[beezydatwarrior21]

@toontownsalty98 type in J cole hes bringin the 90's flow back

[MadeSicc74]

dad made me listin 2 this song since i was like 5

[alexftw95]

[monique2badd]

[warlord1121]

@russskates26 all the artist you said are rappers that make rap... this is old skool hip hop 2 different genres, one came from the other but there not the same and dont get me wrong, i like rap, but only the shit from the 90's... not today's crappy shit

[russskates26]

@warlord1121 yeah i know today like souja bitch and gucci mane stuff like that but no matter what eminem dr dre jay-z and game some new school artists are dope but alot of it is just terrible and embarrasing

[russskates26]

@russskates26 yeah slick rick is dope as hell i only support real hip hop like i said 2pac eminem biggie dr dre jay-z and eazy-e i also like 50

[warlord1121]

@russskates26 finally there is someone other than me that agrees

[russskates26]

@warlord1121 yeah i love old school and love some new school but only real new school not any souja bitch asher roth etc. real rap

[UndergroundKing202]

@russskates26

slick rick is 1000 times better than eminem jayz and all those other faggots

[russskates26]

@UndergroundKing202 hes dope but you had the nerve to cal eminem jay-z ice cube 2pac and biggie faggots yoou cant be real bro get off slick ricks dick now!

[UndergroundKing202]
