Marky Mark And The Funky Bunch - Wildside

[a0kii]

this sounds like "damn it feels good to be a gangsta" or has the same feel anyway

[AleGatz]

Ttrying to be the white 2Pac FAIL! and im white jajaja

[theicephoenix]

Finally found!!! it's been years since i heard this classic!!!

[romeonarcizo]

One of the best songs of 1991...simple like that!!!

[SeRi0uSLYman]

a tribe called quest beat

[MrNullepulle]

I love the song, I love him.. I love it!

[kristinaeg85]

oh dear haha

[SarahBean99]

I have <3ed this shit since I was WAY younger..... <3 the message!!!

[mrjay621]

I give him alot of respect as a singer, because he sang what was going on the world. It really hit home for alot of people. Think it made the world little better.

[malcolmscotty1]

this is beyong hilarious

[reeka411]

this is based on lou reed's wild side yea?

[MeTaLLiCaT8282]

@reeka411 Yup!

[TheJoeyEmilyShow]

@reeka411 Yes, the guitar line and the interlocked double bass line is off of "Walk On The Wild Side" by Lou Reed.

[4stemcellresearch]

nothing like watching Dirk Diggler rap

[mattc941]

Biggie.... Tupac.... Marky Mark. Sorry its the truth.

[Fine39XMEN]

If you like this song then you might like "Walk on the Wild Side" by Lou Reed. That is the song that the "hook" for this song is sampled from.

[1bIgFaTsOnOfAbItCh]

He may have not been the best rapper, but the stories behind the lyrical content is deep.

[rgrsanta]

why does mark show the flag burning in his vidio? he is from Bostin

[rgrsanta]

why does mark show the flag burning in his vidio?

[mamekshamow]

no one comments on the point of the song though

[missthanghasswag]

haters need 2 stfu ur just jealious cus u dnt look as good as he does! iloveyou markymark!!!!!!!

[tacomadavid68]

Sampling yah I do it. I take a good song and then I ruin it.

[MsSilenthorse]

it doesnt matter who the singer is it is the lyrics that matter

[Scottner1234]

This song is the greatest...

[TheRaletalk]

its 2011, and it still funny to see a white guy walking with a bunch of black people.

[tacomadavid68]

@TheRaletalk He was preparing for his future role in Planet of the Apes.

[TheRaletalk]

@tacomadavid68 does not make any sense dawg

[pootytang82]

lol simply terrribly but hes famous now

[GadgetHater]

Hey chicken, how's it goin?  Say hi to your mother for me awrite?

[marcrisalves1]

Uauuuuu.....M.M é lindooooo!!!!!

[1FatBalls]

He's the only rapper that knows the word valedictorian.

[Osbournejames]

I remember that story about charles. mark does a great job with this song, as you all know mark and his Brother Donnie grew up in the Roxburry neighborhood. that has never been a good part of town I think it is great that they was able to rise above. just goes to show that anyone can rise above a bad situation and make it good.

[BluSarahNamaste]

@Osbournejames not to mention the fact that mark sings about the infamous Boston case of the white man who blamed a black man for the murder of his wife.

[darkangel15000]

Actually if people would stop and listen to the lyrics, this has a message to it, you just got to listen close to what he's talking about.

[kissmagik]

I just realised that his songs are really famous but I didn't know it was him!!

[mannyac82]

I've always been in love with that saxophone riff on the chorus, the definition of a "haunting melody" IMO.

[whitehorse43]

Was that Donnie Wahlberg who was under the bleachers giving that girl crack?

[harmkesnuf]

@whitehorse43 Yep

[darkangel15000]

@whitehorse43 Yes that's Donnie. 

[AshleeAwesomee100]

I think marky mark is a good rapper! Plus he doesnt rap about how he gets high and is a pimp like some rappers i know (50 Cent) haha jk But he isn't setting a bad Example! Plus he is hot as Hell!(:

[Smoke4Freedom]

IMHO Mark cannot rap for shit.

[wallacemz]

hes a way better actor than rapper

[LuchiiLus]

@wallacemz

hell yeah!

[4stemcellresearch]

@wallacemz I agree. Then he went onto be a porn star named Dirk Diggler/Brock Landers lol! He is so cute.

[wallacemz]

@4stemcellresearch ew i didnt want to know that lol

[Rorshein]

God he is a bad rapper

[m1zzursh3r]

idgaf i love me so marky mark <3

[LeoDopeland]

this song is great other then the what the Heck..

[sexycatd]

What is the name of the song that he sampled? I heard it once before on something else but could never figure out what it is.

[hiphophorray123]

@sexycatd Lou Reed - Take A Walk On The Wildside

[sexycatd]

@hiphophorray123 Thanks!!

[SummerS1998]

his from the east

[therealraybaby]

This was some serious social commentary. 2 day it is an opus magnum.

[samwhooper1]

is it okay if i masturbate to this?

[gaoithre]

He was good rapper and now he's pretty good actor

[lakim4m89]

WHAT THE HECK? 

[TJraider101]

mark walberg is aewsome

[MooseShady]

I just don't understand know why Mark get so pissed off when everybody bring up his early years as a rapper and calvin klein spread before he hit it big as a full-flegged Hollywood actor. Mark should not be ashamed of what got him where he is today and embraced it.

[bartonboy564]

@MooseShady because he used to do drugs ALOT and is ashamed of that

[CLERICCONOR]

@MooseShady Totally agree pal, it shows he did'nt just come to fame, he worked for it and tried abit of everything, if anything he should - like you said - not be ashamed?

[3ohniner]

@MooseShady because he's move on and just doesn't want people to bring it up...and people should move on

[originalstatus13]

@MooseShady I would be embarrassed too

[briannapearl]

and the colored girls go...

[TheDudertron]

@RocStarr913 a tribe called quest used the exact same sample in the same year!

[martingomezism]

Caution: If you watch this while high on marijuana, you may go crazy due to discovering so many other messages this song has.

[whyteboy5150]

hey at least this is better than some of the bullshit that comes out today, at least he's speaking legible english that we can all understand. He's really rhyming words, and he's telling a story with each verse. Can anyone say the same for lil wayne????

[cheapcape]

Markie is boss!

[DitchfieldRyan]

Quest and Lou Reed.... Yes

[DaftGirl77]

omg hes so hot...

[Pdasilva0324]

The reference to Tiffany is a true story, but she was actually 11 when she was the innocent victim of gang related crossfire in Dorchester in the summer of 1988. I remember it well because I was also 11, and lived in Quincy, so far yet so close to the late 80s/early 90s violence of Dorchester.

[annaisjesus]

This is why us white folks shouldn't be rapping XD

[CaNNonBlunT]

cant belive mark whalberg was a rapper  ahaha omg

[oderfdog]

did he say "as sure as a seagull is web-toed"?

lmao

[AshleeAwesomee100]

He would be my new justin bieber/Eminem if he was still around(:

[cheapcape]

@AshleeAwesomee100 miles ahead of them twats tho

[tuckermcloughlin]

wow I just read the book all souls, and these are trues stories about the troubles in Boston. i suggest to all from Boston who have nnot already read it to do so ASAP

we love you Markie!

[romeonarcizo]

Mark han nothing to be a shame...Has great songs (specially this one)..I have to say i was a big fan of this music...and now of course is a great actor....0:64...is donni walberg,mark brother

[jayat90]

I THINK MARK HAS BEEN ON THE WILDSIDE

MAYBE THATS WHY ITS A WARNING TO THE LISTENERS

AND REMEMBRANCE FOR ,WHO DIED ON THE WILDSIDE

[ELoveSquadUp]

Flow is corny on this

[blacksultan85]

stick to the movies my friend,that rapping shit ain't for you LOL!!!!!!!!!

[colinrocks14]

@blacksultan85 um buddy... this was in the 80s and 90s soo yeah

[blacksultan85]

@colinrocks14 so 80's and 90's can have corny ish too so yeah!!!!!!

[TheMrAwesome57]

@blacksultan85 at least hes better than modern rap artist witch they suck like lil wayne or nicki watever the fuck her last name is old school rap is the best

[blacksultan85]

@TheMrAwesome57 you right ol'school rap is the best but Ice-T,A Tribe Called Quest,Beastie Boys,Big Daddy Kane,NWA,Cypress Hill, House Of Pain and 3rd Bass they represented what's real hip hop he represented commercial mainstream pop hiphop BUT i love his acting it KICKS ASS i get to give him big props and mad love SHOUTS OUT TO HIM for that!!!!!

[martingomezism]

Marky Mark can put on a dress and go skipping around in public and he would still be badass

[qoaa]

Poor Dirk Diggler, he does anything for money...

[martingomezism]

The black guy with the saxaphone tears that shit up

[edgarsaenz]

The 80's and 90's Rocked

[psplayer444]

Haha "Don't do drugs kids! -Marky Mark"

[sic13itch]

I remember this from grade school! boy do i miss the 90s

[backtohali]

he was about a tousand times more musically talented and rap-inclined than vanilla ice, and look how popular he was (believe it or not) for a year or so there. Just goes to showm if you are sitting on top of the charts, check yourself cause you might be wack as fuck

[969fuckyou696]

@backtohali ahahahaha truetrue

[MeEmma123]

hes amazing!!

[dvocci]

glad he started acting............



[Condemnedbass]

the yankee clipper

[endranesta]

Marky mark maybe not a good rapper, and only produced one album, but the messages he delivered through all his songs made them worth listened. And his music is not so bad. As an actor he keeps getting better, and always made progress in his acting.

[Emma99STRBX]

oh ya no shirt!!!!! yummy

[Nndankn]

bro his flow is cold his composure is ace i cant believe he isnt gimmicky and silly as shit holin it own in 91 my nigga deserve his shit!!!!!!!!

[Udiel]

mark wahlberg is wearing a hat

[DamoninaLoveGarrett]

bello!!

[MsHannahVonD]

Mark Wahlberg is fucking seksi, he'll always be.

[mysticalmermaid61]

i hope the messages get through to people.love my marky mark

[Littlejharmony]

Brings back some 'Dope' memories... Definitely one of Mr. Wahlberg's best stuff.

[banishedshinobi1]

10 people took a walk on the wildside

[elpedo69]

fucking bad ass jam, this one and a tribe called quest... seriously tho, i much rather bump this than any crap they play today, at any given time..

[verbalswordsman]

@elpedo69 Immortal tech, canibus, paz...come on man just an other elitist member. Pay attention

[RocStarr913]

While Marky Mark may not have been the best rapper & his flow in particular here is terrible at times, the music, the production, & how it incorporated the Lou Reed "Walk On The Wild Side" sample was very unique for its time, especially as a hip-hop record.

[redsawxnationsouth]

@RocStarr913 unique, except that a tribe called quest had sampled it a couple years earlier ("Can I kick it")

[thedexterbros]

@RocStarr913 No hate to Mark, but it's not unique at all considering Tribe Called Quest already sampled this in their hit "Can I Kick It" and got more creative with the sample.

[sjhaven]

@RocStarr913 I'm guessing you've never heard "Can I Kick It" by A Tribe Called Quest from the exact same year. The only difference is that their song is good.

[bobethe]

@RocStarr913 I hear ya, but this SUCKS, if a good rap artist did this and kept the THEME OF THE SONG, marky mark makes it sound like tragic story while lou reed is like, "Hey, take a walk on the wild side" not some morality tale.... better than hearing Motley Crue go "WIIIILD SIIIIIDE" - BUT THIS DOES SUCK

[lrebsaxet]

marky mark never wears a shirt.... he's cool

[letitcomedownmang]

@lrebsaxet 1:43

[letitcomedownmang]

@lrebsaxet 1:43

[MrSegaLP]

@lrebsaxet if i had a body like that i wouldn't wear a shirt either lol

[RoXyJDeMoN]

@lrebsaxet actually pretty much the only time hes NOT wearing a shirt is during his first rap, and the begining of his 2nd.

[shockadinki]

say hello to your mother for me

[WessCNY]

If you ain't never been to Syracuse then you ain't never been to the wildside.

[exkimo64]

Anybody else want to listen to A Tribe Called Quest's "Can I Kick It?" now?

[coryjohnmercer]

@exkimo64 Yeaaaa Mannnn...

[dyamicduo]

Hahahaha I can't help it, Mark Wahlberg is no rapper

[ste43]

@dyamicduo he's more gangster than half the little faggots out there that came after him and that are around now. plus he would knock any one of them out.

[alexanderanthony]

@ste43 agree

[leanursie]

he was , at the time, the best..I was there...heard it, saw it.....no need to get nasty!

[GoatBrotherhood]

Actually I think Marky Mark is about the Best. If you think about it Eminem really isn't as good as you think. You just like him because every else likes him.

[pittp91]

@GoatBrotherhood quit cock ridin em will blow mark out the water.... now acting, thats a different story...lol

[NOLIMIT331]

no ur wrong

[kingdennis13]

why does he always have his shirt off?

[leanursie]

He was even better than Eminem in his short singing career....awesome....

[kingdennis13]

@leanursie your a dumbass eminem is the greatest white rapper to ever live no one is better than slim shady. dumb bitch. i cant even watch this video its im embarrassed for mark

[isaiahandmorgan1200]

@kingdennis13 yeah hes the best but others like jon young are food too

[isaiahandmorgan1200]

@leanursie bullshit!

[YodaOwns]

i only realised like ... 5 mins ago (7:30pm, Tuesday 9th November) that ''Marky Mark'' is the AMAZING actor that played the Sniper in Shooter, Mark Whalberg

[stivaro]

Soooo LL Cool J style man. I love him as an actor, but really, I think he could have been a big hit like Eminem.

[NickChaseMe]

@coryjohnmercer no it's not

[TheAvengedskull]

I can't believe that he is going to play The Crow in the remake..

[coryjohnmercer]

Same Beat as "Geto Boys - Damn It Feels Good To Be A Gangsta" Thats a power tune.......

[exkimo64]

@coryjohnmercer I would say the more famous A Tribe Called Quest - Can I Kick It?

[whiteorangatange]

he do look like john cena here a little

[Baaamicide]

@whiteorangatange A skinny Cena

[jojoda4thnigga]

I miss this song. I heard it when I was a kid.

[curvy71]

i like this song because it gives a strong message.

[Gideon52480]

@curvy71 Thank you. I think people are way too hard on Mark's short-lived music career. I'm a huge 2Pac, Biggie, Dre, Snoop, Eminem fan and I think I know a good rap when I hear one. I know this song word for word and still love it to this day and if you ask me, it blows a lot of that bling-bling, booty-shakin' bullshit that passes for rap nowadays outta the fucking water. Why? IT ACTUALLY SAYS SOMETHING! It's about life's stuggles and tragedies, something most rappers today won't touch.

[curvy71]

@Gideon52480 i agree they are to hatd on Mark but he is a great actor too as well as a good singer.i agree on marky is better than some rappers today.

[TkoBlaze]

@Gideon52480 haha 50 cent touchs life struggles bro he talks about his crack dealin days thats a big life struggle id b hard for me to admit to the world i smoke crack and sold it regularly and thats why i dont move my lips when i rap cuz i got shot in the face lmao life stuggles!

[BETTYBONGOS00]

3:20-25 lolz

[colemanELWAY2907]

What's with the ChiSox hat? What the fuck?

[bentron3030]

@colemanELWAY2907

Man that hat was hot back then son! When they went to the black it was the shit.

[twisted400]

dope dope dope makes me think

[mariesauceda]

total hottie!!!!!

[paddyboy619]

omg mark ftw

[SilvieinBali]

for sure better than most stuff ( in the hip hop world these days )

[thecrazypasten]

Is that guy still in jail? or did they let him out? the detectives should watch this Marky knows the truth. Damn the wildside seems rough. btw lou reed is a nasty old dog these days, woof. he must of caught rabies from that tranny holly.

[Jinxedbeyondrepair]

This song hits hard in a car with subs.

[Linky360]

i think i just jizzed in my pants.....

[Gorre14]

this is good. inspirational.

[CEEPMDEE]

I remember watching this shit over & over & over when it first came out around november "91".

I like how they raised the pitch when he raps and lowers it during the break.

Classic.

[11Bear24Kj20]

Good song... plus mark is good at like everything he does

[mclark1972]

Didn't catch it at first, but the song refers to a real incident that happened in Boston during the late 80s when a businessman named Charles Stuart murdered his pregnant wife. I was in high school at the time and remember that story well.

[koolerv8kid]

burning an American flag huh... WTF?

[cece0827]

marky mark is my hero....

[whytelynes]

Good thing I heard this song as a young kid or else I would have gone down a dead-end path and followed a life of crime.

[maniacboyz7]

Back then he used to hang out with African Americans, then in "Shooter" I started to kill them. lol

[qr11k]

I used to like this video .I haven't seen it in years. MTV had videos before The

Jersey Shore ( I like that show) and other reality garbage.

[mariesauceda]

what a total hottie:-)

[Peppkarton]

hte sax is so great i cant put it into words

[AJames3362]

"Can I kick it? Yes you can!!!" Tribe called quest...

[RocStarr913]

He tries very hard to rap like Rakim in this, but Mark seems to lack his lyrical depth. Definitely more interesting & very underrated than most of the "pop rap" that came out during this time.

[BETTYBONGOS00]

They killed Carroll to collect the big checks; blame it on a black man... What the heck?

[mcspeltz1]

Marky mark is drug free!!!!
