When Broadway growls Beg No Friends before his verse and the beat gets dark... so ill. Always thought this was one of the hardest tracks ever. Even made Puba sound hard.
@hoody232 real true today is all fuckin fakes bitch ass niggas sing for the money and the fame 2pac is a fuckin lyric nigga and never BUT NEVER sing for the money and he is famous and still alive only god knows
Lyrically this shit is weak as fuck but it has mad energy, kind of like M.O.P. or Freddie Foxxx. It's just something you play when you're working out or getting ready to fight someone but rarely if ever outside of that.
@WecanWinJesse Sounds pretty lyrical to me. Alot more lyrical then these boring as flows these rappers have now a days. their slow flows put me to sleep.
chill out, I just noticed it was cut out in an other version of the video clip here on YouTube. Though it's funny to see that white man get strangled, of course he plays with it cause you see him twice.
godamn..fat joe aint nothing but a fuckin sell out now..that fat pig pork eating fuck nigga wouldn't even give no love to big pun's wife..she living in a shelter..fuck you fat joe..pussy
@starsky99 Nah fuck you. Hatin ass HARLET people like you never become successful cause u busy hatin on the next man Wayne wouldn't hire you to clean his toilet . Ironic and I'm not even a wayne fan.
word i remember knocking this joint in the days goin down to white plains rd and 236th to pick up the skamas.....mad mix tapes were the shit back then
Strickly Roots are: Rasheed Hewitt & Dion Barnes... remember this from an old rap magazine which included emerging rappers & had this video recorded from Video Music Box. That was back when Knicks were the top team in the East with #33 in the center, #34 on the boards, #3 beyond the ark.... :)
This that old school Valley Mob shit. North Bronx Niggas know what I mean. I know half of the cats in this video. A lot of these dudes was on the run when this came out.
@nycgoodfriend word u went to truman???i know mad heads ...i from thte Vernon though...reppin shit , u remember Culture Juice off white plains rd. and maybe 239th???
they were a cool group for their time but where are they now? And dont say they wont do a song wit Wayne! U dont know that. Cats are opportunist and they would do a song with anybody if it could increase their exposure. The Beatnuts did a song with Cheryl Pepsi Riley! That could be considered a sellout move. Remember dat? Redman did a song with Christina Aguilera. So did DJ Premier. Did dat make u respect them any less? Joe been in the game since 93. Gotta respect that.
They still in the game just not doing any songs with wack ass rappers like Joe is doing. Redman is still doing his hard shit even after the song he did with Aguilera, and Premier took her in a totally different direction when he produced her album and it was dope unlike any of those songs Joe is doing with them wack cats. If Pun was here there would be none of that going on. He even got rid of his TS Members to go and Fuck with DJ Khalid .
But if they could they would. Trust me. U said they never would. I'm saying they would! And dont make excuses 4 da other cats! Christina Aguilera!!! U might as well work with the Backstreet Boys! They did it for the money. Just say it. Its cool wit me. Make your bread. If u dont rock with Joe just say u dont rock with Joe and leave it at at. And u not in his inner circle 2 kno y he stopped fucking wit other TS members. I kno im not so im not taking any sides. dat shit is between them...
Nah working with a rock star or pop star makes more sense as opposed to working with a wack MC. Your right I dont know what went on with him and his ts members but I still love joe crack been rocking with him since 93 but he just did some flip flop shit and I dont like it or the music he puts out now.
Its the same shit to me. lol. U have no bizness working with either! I see him get criticized for shit every other rapper do. Who hasnt done a song with Wayne? Rick Ross? Jay has. Kiss has too. Nas did a song with Ross also. And 90% of NY rappers have Down south sounding songs. Dats the game now. Joe is just my dude. Even tho the new album is garbage. its all good. He's a vet and been repping NY since 93. So i got love for him.
I can name a few rappers who haven't done a song with them wack dudes you just mentioned, Wu Tang, MF DOOM, BCC, Beat Nuts, Chris aka KRS ONE,50 and Kiss should be ashamed of himself for doing a song with OJ Da Juice Man and Hurricane Chris WTF
They shouldnt be ashamed. Dudes got bills and entire families to take care of. If I dont like it I just dont listen to it. KRS did a song with Puffy. People looked at him sideways for it but I didnt. Fuck it. U gotta do what u can to take care of your family.
Did u forget that Lil Wayne was on Kiss last album? He didnt do a song with Ross. I meant that for Jay and Nas who have done songs with Ross. Calm down.
Somebody needs to kidnap Fat Joe and lock him up in a basement in the South BX with a Black Hoody and feed him nothing but Dope Beats, chicken Wings and fries because he is on some Bullshit now.
where are the sexy ladies, the expensive cars, fubu wearing guys with bright colours and bling bling on? oooh so this is hip-hop you dont hear since 1996 when the rugged sound slowly changed to electronic beats and weird computer instruments. I BLAME THE MEDIA, WEST COAST, NEW JACK RAPPERS, THEY BRAINWASHED THE YOUTH - NEW YORK FELL OFF - HIPHOP IS DEAD. Unless some MC cares about hip-hop and brings back 88-94 style flavour.
salaam brother,its true when I used to listen to real hip hop fat gully joe was hurtin em and he was a champion,now he is a joke even his friends the terror squad have mostly left him,why people say 50 is a sellout?when proof that he said in the ghetto qur'an what people were saying on the street,he made more money way b4 he had a record deal.more more more haters,REAL TALK
again, classics like this show how old i am! LMAO
i still got the maxi-single of this on cassette. no matter how old this shit gets, it's still hot! there's a reggae joint that sampled this and it included dion broadway, RMR and rich nice as guest performers.
ive been lookin for chill will tapes... he had hot mixes beginning to end... i had masterpiece 1, 4, 6, i dont think i heard 8 1/2... ''...uptown, dowtown, croostown, and outtatown...''
HELL YEAH NIGGA!!!! Da original masterpiece had that Biz markie/Freddie Jackson mix that made me wear my tape out! From the door Chill Will had it sewn up! I mean he was the first one to take pop records and put beats to em. Like on 4 when he took that soul clap beat and put it to Madonna!
I got to say it and i know peeps is gonna be mad but, this version of Fat Joe would murder Papoose in a heartbeat. Its too bad Joe aint got it like that anymore.
yo does anyone know where i can get an MP3 of this track? this is one of the toughest tracks ive heard in the longest time, and its apparently real rare
yES!...this is my shit....grand puba murders the verse....WORD! "i kept my business right and tight never mess with noone but if pops up....aiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight!"
Shit, Fat Joe nowadays is wacky as Jay Z nowadays, Especailly 2006 when Fat Joe was rappin with Lil Wayne. I fuckin hate East Coast rappers tries to be like South Rappers.
dam this remind me of the good ole video music box days the first dude that rapped was working for dhl and i was working for ups and i was like damn i didnt no rappers work
be on the look out im scheming on some hard core hip hop shit trust me if you guys like these Strickly Roots joints there is some shit cooking in the oven North East bx aka the North Pole it aint over
Man if you got Duck the Boys in Blue you have to do the world a service and upload that to Youtube. I had that on one of my tapes but cant find it no more, that vid is gutter!
Real Shit 90's Shit when there were Clan's Possie's Crew's and Cliques back in the 90's Hiphop was so hot in the 90's it was like it wasnt even real!!!
Dope! Rugged! Raw! Hard! Shit is like a "OLD" rusted blade sliding across the throat of all the new sounds that's out today.Who ever would have thought Hip Hop would turn to a bitch ass Artform.(The music Industry is Wack)
agree with that comment.. hiphop nowadays truly is bitch ass bullshit.. it turned from hiphop to bitch hop.. 88-96 was real, until the rims n bling thing fuckd it it up.. but good job youtube is here.
strickly roots was a weird group, im not sure but it seemed to me they had street cred first before they rapped.u gotta remeber eary 90's crack was still selling heavy
In response to doktorron: The first rapper is Rashiid Hewitt a.k.a RMR. dont know if he still raps but he was always killing track back in the 90's when hip hop was alive.
Damn Kid, You Remember That One Too? I Thought I Was The Only One Who Thought That Mr.Broad Killed That Track. Man, Whatever Happened To The Days Of Real Shit Like This?
does ANYONE know where i can get this track? or what album it comes from??? im too young to have ever heard this on the radio im an '87 baby but LOVE this flow

Why is it that you can tell '93 raps?
Why is it that it sounds better then all the rest?
And why does it sound better by SO MUCH?
The most rappiest rap.
Back when the main market for rap had good taste. (The people that bought rap endorsed phat, dope sounds from phat dope slammin emcees)
It sounded good, we bought it they made more.
Now, it sounds good, but some other people with strange taste and bad rythem have the market so now we get Lil Wayne in stead of real OGs and Emcees

Dope! Rugged! Raw! Hard! Shit is like a "OLD" rusted blade sliding across the throat of all the new sounds that's out today.Who ever would have thought Hip Hop would turn to a bitch ass Artform.(The music Industry is Wack)

In response to doktorron: The first rapper is Rashiid Hewitt a.k.a RMR. dont know if he still raps but he was always killing track back in the 90's when hip hop was alive.

Still got my Kani gear in mint condition with the metal plate on it from 1993.
Who would have known back then that the entire 00's decade would end up being wack as hell.
