hell yeh first heard mad scientist on 89 tek 9, b4 1am, riz n sunset spinnin mad scientist xtra p musta been like 95 o mayb 96 time fliez ...watch out 4 music produce n dj Nire MOB (she also reps queens -like the main souce nukka) she n him was buildin.....peep the queenslady online n shit.......but yeh damn 96?!? .musta been akheez! 1ington- SIPESTEEZY BKNY-BCN
although it's one of the best mid 90's hip hop singles.. the video sucks, obviously done on a very small budget and with no inspiration.. this should have been a killer video with science fiction overtones...like the sample is from DUNE ..that could have inspired more images itself.
That is what makes this era of music/hip hop a special one because you did not need a special video, special effects, half naked women, cars, chains, all the shit you see now because the beat, the flow, the music (real hip hop is all you need) I agree this video is weak, but I can sit and watch the video over and over again
this was a VERY rare 12" single, even when dropped back in what, 1996? To this day, my peeps hound me for my original wax, as I mixed it on a tape and well, it's kinda gone down in infamy! I had never seen this Video.thanks for posting it. Too bad there was no Album released.
This is all that bangs in my ride!!!!!.....youngsta take NOTES and download these classics before your ears get polluted with the Lil Wayne, Souljah boy and these other nonsense Artist out today!!!!
tru dat 718273. The best rappers, producers, grafitti artistss, DJ's, clothing designers in Hip-Hop tend to stay underground and out of the mainstream bullshit
Maybe popspie, but not every Hip-hop entrepeneur succeeds in doing so because of the way the powers-that-be are set up above them (i.e. recording executives and A&R personnel, lawyers, managers, etc). Large Professor was and still is mad talented as an MC and producer, so why didn't he blow up as he should have? Something or someone prevented him from doing so and kept him underground, or he chose not to go that route. Hip-hop is like a huge body of water; garbage always settles on the top
tru hip hop phuk that otha shyt people laugh at me cuz am stuk in this age but hey whut else is there. Maybe a few albums but they still don't match up.
when ur forced to listen to the lil waynes and plies and ace hoods of today,it amazing more people aint stuck in the past like us.everyone should be.its really no comparison.music has been like a reverse evolution if u ask me.its in its athritic and alzheimer stage
Yea I respect this shit here.This is boom bap hiphop's original formula.We need one more golden era of hiphop again.The shit now aint nuthin compared to the real dope.Much respect to the pioneers
All I know is that I am forcing my kids to listen to this unless they magically discover this on their own. We are lucky to have grown up during influential and groundbreaking hip hop eras. Nowadays, it's sad. My IPOD has 3000 songs and I don't think one of them is from after 1999.
im 22 and i love the golden era of hip-op!! when good music was played on the radio now we got this bling-bling, cars, hoes junk being played its not hip-hop songs with no originality! but hip-hop isnt dead its alive and well listen to UNDERGROUND HIP-HOP! thats where its at now. check my playlist and my favorites! for some underground hip-hop and some SOME GOLDEN ERA HIP-HOP!!!
woo sorry i mean we cnt all be gangsta n wtf did i say bout nas didnt put him dwn did i. no so get fucked n if ya into hip hop you shld lern to respect it all
Dam son i dont even remember when this video came out!! i must have been a kid cuz i lived right where this cat large pro lived, i lived right there in those buildings he rappin in front of 42-55 colden street KIDD!!!!
I used to have the cassette maxi single for this joint. Tape almost broke because I was hitting rewind so much. "Neva had a basement neva had an attic. Only an apartment where I forever had static." The story of my life. Dope rhymes.
Thank God for youtube! Otherwise I might not see another "real" hip hop video in my life! I want to see all these old skool mcs come back and beat the S#%t out of guys that produce the "anti-hip hop" that passes as hip hop these days...
the sad shit is BET and MTv have all of these videos in their vaults. the should syndicate all those old Yo Mtv Raps and old Rap City episodes. Everyone over 25 year old would tune in like it was fuckin American Idol.
Gotta love the ending @ 3:47 with the turntable on the back with the words "The Mad Scientist" printed backwards on the turntable mat...straight hip-hop classic shit right there and my favorite joint off that entire THE LP Album would have to be "Spacey" because Large Professor killed that Hubert Law's sample and it could'nt have sounded even more sicker from the way Extra P dissected it and added those boomin drums in there.
YO FOR REAL WE ALL NEED TO GET TOGETHER AND BRING BACK THIS TYPE OF HIP HOP. DAMN LISTEN TO HIS WORDS!!!!!!!!! LOL Remember when you could listen to rap city for the whole 2 hours without changing the channel. Well mayby one or two times.
man, he is better than alot of these so called gangster rappers. gangster is dead, rappers like large professor, guru, are going to get their due. They were just before their time
Large Pro/Professor, Extra P, 1/3 of Main Source, 1/2 of Da Beatminerz, Black Moon/Smif N Wessun/Nas/TCQ/Pete Rock/etcetc producer, this guy is the shit. Plus the video is cool.
Classic Video...Rember they played it on Rap City back in the dayz when I was in High School..classic video!! L.Professor iz off the chain, No doubt!!
Yo...what would be dope if you could find Mother Superia's "Most Of All" video! I have yet to come across one person who has the video including Genius himself (who directed it)when he came to ATL for a show!
I've also gotta give up the props to ya, ParadigmShift302. I first heard the instrumental of this YEARS ago. I'bve probably spent the best part of at least a decade trying to find out which rap artist was responsible for this!
