  • The 30 dislikes on this must have lost their faith in Hip Hop when Pac and Biggie died and just couldn't take it no more! Come back someday, and for those that know, this is a classic on a classic album! This is back when rappers actually cared and put it on record and us the fans said, maybe there is hope! Peace to those that know and all those finding out, after I get through in the beginning talking to the dislikes, thats where you come in....

  • Dope

  • '88 brought me here...... The best story teller hip hop has ever seen....

  • He reminds me of Nas.. weird?

  • @danewceo "The world is yours" by Nas was inspired by this Slick Rick joint. They both have similar positive messages, something which modern music unfortunately lacks.

  • @danewceo not weird at all.. nas is directly influenced by slick rick as he's said many times

  • Rick The Ruler! Damn Hip Hop used to be so fucking great...... Pure positive poetic skills right here....

  • omg, DETOX

  • @BrawlPwnage fuck outta here with that bullshit

  • @PS3xMedia you kiddin me man, you dont like dre? I loved this song long before detox, but I love dre sampled it

  • @BrawlPwnage i love dre but when he realeses this song on detox no-one will know it originally came from here

    so ill be singing hey young world and people will think its whatever dre song

  • @PS3xMedia i understand you man, slick rick is gonna be forgotten, dre just sampled his true shit, though dre is great, slick rick should be gettin credit in the first place

  • my neww songgg

    

  • DETOX

  • @SargentDmaths jesus christ, why the fuck did u feel the need to write that, praisin dre for taking this chorus and selling it back to people who never even heard of rick

  • @PS3xMedia well if people havnt heard of slick they will after they hea the dre track. thats what hiphop is u fuck tard, recyclin quotes, beats, barz etc. listen to 2001 beats like whats the difference itsa massive sample, with dre tweakin the beat. anyway, detox is the most anticipated hiphop album EVER, and i cant wait 2 hea it, obviously wont be as good as 2001, but better than most hiphop music whats bin comin out over the years, thats why i felt the need to write that. DETOX

  • @SargentDmaths ok so what makes you think they are gonna know that dre took it from here? thats the point im making, they aint gonna are they?

    theres no possible way theyre gonna realise its originally by slick rick unless theyve heard this song before

  • @PS3xMedia yeah, ikno what u mean, but theres countless samples of old hiphop tracks what have been used over the years and people dont even kno they are samples, they just think its something new, which is what hiphop is all about, making something old, new again...giving it life again, they will kno its originally by slick because people leave comments on youtube vids saying shit like 'dre sampled this from....' end of the day, dre sampling this track made me come back and listen to it again.

  • ohhh i just now heard this song and i realized that lloyds song Hey young girl sounds just like this i guess thats where he got it from
