ya he's the greatest, krs1 the greatest ala Muham. ali... Ya right he the greatest liar of all time krs1 was a homeless crackhead that would have sold his soul to the devil for a scruptious cupcake... This greatest teacher in hip hop is actually the greatest crackhead in hip hop....*
A 43 year old white man from Oregon still relates 23 years later to the message. It continues to cover issues " to what we call hip hop, and what it meant to DJ SLR".
Inspiring philosophy trandsending decades and generations. Thanks KRS 1, your just the guy to lead a crew.
i draw strength from this song, krs one, this message. i always come back to it. this song woke me up to the world at 10yrs old. a very loud, proud, and audacious alarm clock!!
I think Scott La Rock got killed durin the makin of the song, but this iz real hip hop rite here, so for all them lil candy ass rapper who don't no real hip hop, get a pen and pad out cuz ya gettin schooled
This has always been one of my favourites, its so prophetic by that it is even more relevant now than back then, this sums up everything that pisses me off about certain individuals in Hip Hop & the record industry that has pimped it to death over the decades, the truth will set you free!!!!
@tableturns77 I think black culture is so homogeneous now. Everyone dresses the same, "flows" the same, acts the same. Yo being OG aint going for the purple and red sneakers and all-over print sweater rather than the Lebron jersey and AF1s you fuckin mindless fucks. You aint hawt, your swagg aint shit and yeah old men like KRS and me will knock your ass out.
@trichome333 This is true...But the only thing that you are wrong is that black culture has takin over the generation of all time just look at the t.v. shows and the sports and celebreties...just look in the white house even he has swagg...Tiger too he has taken the golf world to new hype...
Great vid man. Love BDP. But I gotta disagree with gangsta rap being started with Criminal Minded. Schoolly D kicked that off with "P.S.K." and Ice-T ran with it when he came out with "6 in the Mornin' " I mean Criminal Minded was a good album though.
BDP's Criminal Minded was the 1st full fledged gangsta rap album although Schooly D (PSK) & Ice T (6 In The Morning) put out the first gangster rap records respectively.
This joint describes the very current state of corporate sponsored mainstream dumb downed hippop- Hiphop's soulless cousin, to a tee!!
Thank you so much for all these GREAT memories. Keep it up. Reminiscing the real Hip-Hop
