  • Dis was da shit

  • @lamont3sons18 Loved this. Man, I wish i was 19 again. That's when I first heard this real hip hop shit.

  • This is an amazing song! Kane should have made a video for this song. The album Prince of Darkness was Kane's sad attempt to go mainstream. Instead he fell off and never regained his place in Hip Hop. What a shame! He could have had a long career like LL Cool J. Being in Madonna's sex book and Quincy Jones album "Back on the Block" messed with his head. Too bad.

  • i slept on Kane by the time he made this album,i felt like he sold out to mainstream i still had this on cassette

  • Actually, his flow is quite similar to ol' dirty bastard (RIP) here

  • If someone can tell me where the horn sample on the hook comes from you win the "I'M A REAL HIP HOP HEAD AWARD" For The Day

  • q tip and busta are average as fuck, only Big Daddy did it very well. 

  • @ep091988 Calling Busta Rhymes average is crazy you must be Dinco D or C Brown lol

  • The average rapper last about 5yrs. Busta Rhymes been going strong for 20yrs with signs of hanging it up yet!

  • Who ever doesn't like Busta Rhymes should just leave HipHop alone. Your ears are not connected to your head rite.

  • This song should have been legendary. Kane should have made a video for this. Too bad album was so bad this gem of a track was lost.

  • You might not like the "new Busta" but to still be relevant literally 20yrs later and to have a whole new fanbase discovering you, is unheard of in hiphop. I'll admit, not a fan at all of Nikki Minaj,Trey Songz, DJ Khaled, don't really mind Chris Brown as a pop/rnb singer(not 'rapper') but he's killed remixes or reg. songs by these artists and literally went H.A.M. with that freestyle to the Jay/Ye joint and the "No love" Em joint. New HipHop is 90% garbage, but he's still relevant.

  • i was in 8th grade walking to school switching between "The Low End Theory" and "A Future Without a Past" and this tape (yeah the cassette walkman days) I remember how the song Float went right into this. Just plain silly, had to make sure Busta's part was on as i approached the school doors w/my angry morning attitude..lol! HIP HOP

  • Kane collabo'd with pac, busta, tip, big, jay, g rap, masta ace, biz markie, LL, Krs, latifah, freddie foxxx, wu tang etc.....

  • busta rhymes is wack.

  • Big Daddy Kane had one of the illests flows , when he use to speed up his flow was second to none . And Busta was the collabo king back then , there was hardly a remix that didn't have Busta Buss on it . Absolute Real Hip Hop , Real Art Of Rapping .

  • classick material....10th grade,english class,headphones banging this......busta shut this down.....

  • YES!!!! busta verse is the sickest ... ecoli on wax.

  • I found this tape at a thrift store last week for 50 cents!  Takes me back to my junior year in high school!

  • @marlonwebber me too

  • His most underrated CD is 1998's Veteranz Day Song after song is straight dope!!! His skits are funny too, check out Big Daddy Kane - Fish Tandoori Great songs from the album Veteranz Day are: Big Daddy Kane - Hold It Down Big Daddy Kane - Terra N Ya Era Big Daddy Kane - 2 Da Good Tymz Big Daddy Kane - Uncut, Pure Big Daddy Kane - Entaprizin Big Daddy Kane - Do U Really Know? Big Daddy Kane - Definitely Big Daddy Kane - Unda Presha 2Pac unreleased song 2Pac ft. Big Daddy Kane - Wherever U R
  • Busta Rhymes KIIIILLS this...The Dungeon Dragon was RAW back in these days...

  • busta rhymes ; "physically direct from strong isl.(island)"

  • OLD SCKOOL FLY SHIT... 5 BOROS AND L.I. IN THIS B--CH!!!

  • hot hot shit!!! 631 LI LI LI

  • oooooweeeeee! i rememeber this jam, havent heard it since 93 but that first verse of kane still sounds siiiick! that verse even today would stand head and shoulders above the m'cs of today....kane was a bad dude...

  • "See, I can do that 'cause my crew is kinda fat/ inside we had the 'toolies', out West you call 'em gats". Don't know why that line has stayed with me over the years, but yeah...this joint is heavily slept on.

    The late 80's and early 90's had some of the fliest posse cuts and ciphers...don't get 'em like this anymore.

  • aww yeah

  • "Emotional standpoint, running wild - Busta buck wild, physically direct from Strong Isle..." Rrrororoaoroaoraarrr all I know is that the first time I heard this track, and Busta specifically, I was floored. This joint = my college DJ days.... sigh

  • @rawjhaw i attended college between 91 and 95. Hip hop could do no wrong. I didn't catch on to CDs much back then so mad tapes were being put through war.

  • @roscoegino I, too, was in college during this era. I bought this tape twice. I can't believe Prince of Darkness got slept on like it did.

  • @arkansoul I think it had to do with timing. 91 was a VERY competitive year. One of the best in hip hop history. There alot of newer groups making their mark and coming out of the gate with hot shit.

  • @roscoegino Also, I don't think the industry was ready for him to fuse hip hop and R&B together, even though he took stabs at it from time to time before '91. You're right...

  • love this

  • Kane was playin with the mic! LOL. No doubt one of the GOAT!

  • Remember When TS Used This Track...

  • 19 years old, but fresh as a daisy!!

  • RIP. Dj Rob one. The fly id show

  • '91. It's been a long time...

  • @iancurtis86

    to quote rakim, it certainly has. The Golden Age right here.

  • yeah, I said it reminiscing over Rakim's joint hehe

    Greets up in here

  • wow, i cant believe how different busta rhymes sounds in this, he was only 19 when this song came out. lol i didnt know he was around for this long

  • "All the rings in my neck symbolises that I want room."

    Busta use to be too ill words.
