  • I am a 19 year old girl who is in love with real hip-hop. Luckily, my older sister and cousin thought me about real hip-hop and the history, so I know the difference between real hip-hop and fake hip-hop!

  • *taught*

  • @SaySay208 Hey i'm glad to hear that you're about real hip hop, it doesn't matter if it's gangsta or eastcoast, rappers must keep it real. i know there are rappers that are just out there for the money and fame, i mean i love and live hip hop, it's in my blood, and i'm mexican. the industry is snakes, it only cares for certain clients. just listen to true folk like cube or az or snoop, and the list goes on.

  • @SaySay208 please bump this and other real hip hop around friends...youll look way cooler than them when theyre "jerking"....although theres nothing wrong with a lil bafoonery...lol

  • @universaljay LOL I sure will!

  • @SaySay208 *taught

  • @SaySay208 *taught

  • @H0TCLAYT0N Thanks but I wrote taught in another comment a long time ago.

  • @SaySay208 don't be so sure of that...

  • @SaySay208 Im a spanish 20 year old who is in love with real hip-hop too. :D:D:D

  • @marlonvalde That's wut's good my nigga!

  • @SaySay208 you are a beautiful open minded young lady,with a very mature soul.. Much respect to you and your older sister and older cousins for showing you the difference between real genuine music and the stuff they play today..

  • @BXBOMBERFOREVER Hey thank you for the compliment and positive words.

  • @SaySay208 No Problem..

  • @SaySay208 get wat urs sayin but learn 2 spell first

  • @johal425 For you information I do know to spell and if you were looking at all the comments you would have spotted that I posted another comment and I said I mean "taught". Also people often get thought taught there their confused so do not bash me and say I can not spell. Also you didn't spell none of your words correctly. It should be "Get what you are saying but learn to spell first". So you need to get the Fuck out of here with that.

  • @SaySay208 wana get ill hun

  • @SaySay208 God bless your sister cuz she saved you from darkness...

    Welcome the wonderful world of true rap music.

  • @SundiataOfMali Thank you and I also enjoy 90s rnb also 80s.

  • @SaySay208 *taught*

  • @newyorkowner most people that listen to this music end up dead or in the system. These lyrics tell the whole story. If we get out of line and make one bad descision then we are going away...and then who will be around to share the music??

  • this song is dopel.he kills it all around but the first verse is like in the top 25 of all time

  • Top 5 dead oe alive this is real hip hop az needs to drop some new shit and stop playing

  • LOL, well he dropped TWO albums this year, what more do you want?

  • @aqsinner did u hear"FEEL MY PAIN"..or "FOR THE LOVE OF MONEY"...AZ stay wit some new music....hes been droppin CLASSIC albums since like 05' til now....A.W.O.L.....THE FORMAT....UNDENIABLE....N4L mixtape....G.O.D. mixtape....LEGENDARY mixtape and now hes comin with DOE or DIE 2....just keep ur ear to da street my brotha cuz AZ is actually VERY CONSISTENT. peace

  • dope check my remix of az - im back

  • Erick Sermon is the shit!

  • AZ is my dude yo, love this kat. He said...

    " being poor produce persistence, but plus please a hundred g's a have me blockin out a jail sentence "

    Kats cant touch the rhymes or wordplay now days.

  • does anyone know if this or the regular Pete Rock mix is on the 12 inch?? or both?

  • i believe eric sermon from EPMD made this beat.

  • Classic material!!

  • @Nikon, you rignt nobody puts it down like this anymore. I love the remix a hella lot better than the original. For those of you don't know the female singer on this song is singin' the chorus Miss Jones, the ex-host of Hot 97 in New York. She is a huge upgrade from Nas doing the chorus on the original.

  • We have Slaughterhourse, Lupe Fiasco, Jay Electronica, Wale,Skyzoo, Rhymefest, Nino Bless and that's about it as far as some up and coming rappers that still put it down.But none of these cats are this nice and even back then with the Wu-Tang Clan, Mobb Deep, Jeru, Ras Kass, Mic Geronimo,CNN,Common,Twista,Hei­roglyphics, 8ball, UGK etc.. all at the top of hteir game you had to be nice in order to make it.lol.Now it's like all the best rappers are wack.lol.

  • I would call it an upgrade along the lines of introducing it on TV...this version with the video definitely fit better. But the album version with Nas was simply harder...Both versions though, spectacular...This was passion in hip hop...

  • special, unique & raw beat

  • My God what happend to New York Rap?

  • Dip set ruined it.

  • Yeah they did. Purple Haze what the end of great rap!

  • @NIKON777 dipset was awesome. i am pissed that jay z dropped camron and juelz from his label. that is what fucked up rap more than anything else. another reason why jay z is a fagot

  • ' Bein poor produce persistence...lifes a performance so playas play with endurance '....all you can do is shake ya head. dam. what a creation.

  • say word, cats don't even spit like that no more....

    Sad really....

  • where can i get the mp3 version of this????

  • not feelin it like i feel the original.

  • Remix better!

  • This Remix has a certain 80's soul vibe that I can really dig! I like both versions...but this one is so fresh and timeless. AZ sounds really good on that 80's vibe/productions.

  • Totally.

  • When it's all said and done....AZ has to be in the top 10 MC's of all time. He brought the visual aspect of MC'ing to a whole new level.

  • classic shit...

  • I dunno if I like this more or the original but they're both hot

  • this is an exception because Erick Sermon produced this

  • anyone know the sample for this?

  • Freddy Jackson - Love Is Just A Touch Away

  • thanks a lot man!

  • where can i get this! Sorry nas but....

  • Jay Z + NAS = AZ

  • haha

  • @doeordie2000 no no no... CORMEGA + NAS = AZ

  • history says that remixes suck when compared to the original. This is an exception

  • This that real hip hop you dont hear no more

  • im feelin this one

  • This is the Eric Sermon remix, i still have the promo cd of it from 1995. It's a classic.

  • proof is proof

  • THE YEARS OF THE REIMIXES,THE 90'S!

    -Stosto!

  • This is on the greatest hits AZ album. Called DECADE 94' -04. I f u wanna pay money for it that is, which u mofkn should!!!!

  • We can argue what version is better but fuck that, be proud u even know bout this gear. So PURE this hip hop! AZ!.......

  • this beat is dope but still nothing is better than the original it has that grittyness to it this is smooth i can digg it tho i like both of them so im gonna enjoy both of them instead of comparing an contrasting the two someone find the beat for this an upload it tho that would be as dope as this track already is.

  • oh shit!!!! ain't heard this SINCE when it came out. Almost fell out my chair and got fired from work a second ago. I buggin out right now! Green eyed bandit on the beat!

  • lol thats the funniest stuff i heard all day yeah this hot

  • I agree! After that the jiggy era killed originality.

  • I ain't frontin! Stay real, safe sex, the freak'n you remix, anything with E-dub is straight fire!!!

  • I like this version better than the original...SORRY!!

  • me too, this version is waaaaay better !

  • I am not a fan of remix tracks, but I am a fan of this remix. I would have to assume that this remix was featured on vinyl or the cd single?

  • Hands down one of my favorite hip hop remixes from the 90's. It is rare, I think I heard it on the radio about once or twice and happened to record it to tape at the time. Good luck finding an actual single of this.

  • OMG! I can't believe I found this shit! Eric Sermon produced this remix.

  • I still got this on tape(the single)...both the e-double remix and the album versions are still dope to me...too bad I don't have a tape deck anymore.

  • Yall should check foesum - best things in life are free ( g mix )

  • Yeah my boy Erick Sermon the green eyed bandit tears it up once again!!

  • This remix might be even better than the original, which is almost impossible.
