@YoungCorrleone That's just fife diggy, watch the documentary beats, rhymes, and life. Fife's all about sports, anything to do with it. He's actually a scout for some college team now.
shame hip-hip these days is considered talking into a mic with an autotuned voice talking about getting with a girl in a club or some other generic shit to make money
@ishwoo thats what im saying man. at least all of watchin this no what up, no what im saying. its like theres enough of us out there. keep in real fam
atcq is late 80s very early 90s...this is real hip hop...just because it sounds different from the rap shit today doesnt mean its not hip hop....this is more hip hop/rap than what we have today
This is the real hip-hop, kiddies.... This is when hip-hop was GREAT. This is when people weren't posturing with macho bullshit, or talking about "bling" or anything stupid. There's a reason this record went double platinum in 1991. Think about that when you're listening to the latest disposable Autotune rap hit.
Q-tip's verse remains one of the sickest hip hop verses of all time. "Industry rule number 4080, record company people are SHADDDY! So kids watch ya back cause I think they smoke crack I don't doubt it, look at how they act."
@53v3N7 eminem wasn't in the game at that point he started in gaining a little fame in 1994 but really broke trough in 1999 and is mainstream since then.
Anybody know the name/song of the group that sampled "now here's funky introduction of how nice I am?" I've been beating my brain up trying to find that song. They used to play the video on Rap City, it was like the only single I heard from that group, but it was a good hip hop song.
@SquadFive No. There was a song that sampled phife's "now here's a funky introduction of how nice I am" over and over as the hook. One of the emcees sounded a lil like buckshot "when my mentality....something" I just have to keep looking....
yall obviusly didnt git what i meant but its ok i aint arguin wit no one and dont think i dont kno musik cuz i do tribe called quest is one of my favorite groups of all time next to the pharcyde matter of fact i seen em both perform shits hot i wasnt dissin no one i was jus pointin out the truth
And a middle finger goes for all you punk MC's Punk Mc's = Lil Wayne, Drake, Wiz, etc.
