    peace and knowledge to all hip hop elements all over the globe!!!!!!

  • 1 person got a boner while listening to this song and didnt know why

  • you cannot compare lil wayne and rakim just like you cannot compare canned ravioli to cold cuts. it also makes no sense to validate fools in argument.

  • Lil wayne is the best rapper alive nd this nigga Rakim sucks balls the only thing good about this song is the beat.

  • @TNice10693 , LoL crack must be 1 hell of a drug its causing you to say silly things like lil wayne is good & rakim is garbage! LoL please foolish one get off the bullshit

  • @TNice10693 Does he suck because he doesnt sound like a lil bitch on the track?

    Does he suck because he doesnt kiss men?

    Does he suck because his lyrics are too conscious for your noggin to grasp?

    Does he suck because he didnt come from "outer space"?

    Ummm If you may plz explain why he sucks, you'd satisfy my curiosity:)

  • @TNice10693 how is livin tha trolling life.

  • STOP STOP!!!! THIS SONG IS TOO MUCH FOR ME -RAKIM IS GOD

  • ok the 80's well no lets start at the beginning the late 70's thru the mid 90's brought us a pure raw ARTFORM of street poetry, it fought threw bans and censorship and all the negativity to reach the mainstream, it was intelligent and calculated.now something happened in the late 90's...

  • lazy ??? lack of education? not really sure...but now the is LIL WEEZY who sounds like his nuts are in a vise, SOLJA BOI who doesnt speak english and all the others, NEVER compare modern stage clowns to the great of the past EVER

  • bboys where yo at?!

  • UUUUNGHHH!!!

  • Bring back the 808!

  • fuck... i missed the like button X_x

  • Rakim Allah! Greatest MC ever! Period! Heads keep talkin bout Lil Wayne, and Drake. Put one of them against Rakim in a battle and see who wins. Rakim FTW

  • @soultheinterrogator Rakim is Hip Hop, Lil Wayne and Drake are Pop Rap...BIG difference.

  • @coldrockdaspot You mean Hip Pop?

  • ANY MC WHO KNOWS HIS OR HER SHIT WILL TELL YOU THE RA IS THE KING KILLA LYRICAL HORRORIST!

  • @251mandem i can dream about being the dopest mc in the world and b acknowledge by all but after all that daydreaming of making myself the best deep inside i will also know the god RAKIM would b much superior 2me in my own dreams lol, thats how untouchable he is!! peace

  • @7wiiskate amen to that. peace.

  • I love the beat and the music to this song. Eric B. & Rakim, where are you now?

  • Should have been on the soundtrack to the movie Colors from the 1980s

  • @YFLOInternational they couldnt make the sound track for colors this album came out after the movie

  • @snakestaG13 Right. I understand that, but what I meant was it would have been nice if hypothetically this track had been used in the movie.

  • Man that beat is just fire.

  • yo douche bag.just because u think this was ill back in tha day,doesnt make what u like today great.the fact that yur still repping this shit makes me believe u r knew to tha game.u need to respect yur elders.

  • @majesticrecords dam striaght

  • Rakim is my boy. My favorite rapper of all time.

  • anybody know the horn sample used in this joint? i think it's by george clinton, but i forgot the name of the song.

  • i was born in 84'.. i was mad young when this came out.. i still bump this album atleast once a month my whole life.. Rakim = the goat..

  • LOL, don't feel bad man, its the same senario with me, I tell my friends what kind of mcs I listen to such as rakim & all that, & they don't have a clue about any of em!

  • the beat is rollin'! Man this track makes me hype. I've got another version of this song called Complicatem' (pass the handgrenade) Ne1 Familiar with that one?

    btw. very dope track, razersharp bwoi!!!

  • The R Baby

  • im 2 years older than you faggot

  • well at least ur old enough to go on google...

  • you dont even know what a metaphor is

  • u have to be born before 1995 to listen to rakim

  • I've had the exact same conversation as molomyotis

  • leaving authors and writers with arthritus

  • lol i love how he always says the name of the song just before the chorus in every song

  • our weak beats' decay 'till they can't get played!

    Wrong elements in the mic, they get sprayed

    Pass the hand grenade

    FUCKING WORD YO

  • He's the master period.

  • this song is so sick... always pumps me up when i bboy

  • RAKIM ALLAH is better than most rappers who are considered to be the best such as LIL WAYNE WEEZY

  • at 40 im re-discovering these two, i forgot just how brilliant and timeless their sound is.

  • I understand what you are saying. I never forgot infact I am kind of stubborn in thinking they are by far the best, the only I remember the first time I heard Paid in Full It was my first time in NY yea I was high but the song seemed to bring me out of the high I was just blown away at his voice the words the music it happened to be 1986 when it first came out!!! I wonder where people were when they first heard paid in full?? Rakim is brilliant he and eric b together were just amazing!!!

  • At 17 I am just starting to discover them. I just wish other kids in high school weren't blind to real Hip-Hop.

  • I second that second part.

  • rakims way off da scale..he cant be beaten then, and sure as hell cant cant be beaten NOW!

  • Nope, not then or now. The nigga Ra took this shit to a level unseen before or since.

  • haha true

  • pass the hand grenade is what diss rap should be. He is dissin EVERYBODY without sayin anybodys name. These flows where meant to make BDK and KRS1 step up their game without dissin anybody. And they did, cause thats what hiphop was back then. SKILLS RULED! Gangsta rap is what stopped MCing! And i bought it to, so we can only blame ourselfs for its disappearance. Lil Wayne and Soulja boy are products of the system and cant be blamed for their lack of skills. Someones buying it! and alot of it!

  • Greatest rapper....naw scratch that....GREATEST MC of all time. Then, now, and for fucking ever!

  • AMEN

  • one of the best lyrical songs by rakim. this gets me pumped up right here!! sick beat also! one of the best!!

  • A True Master.........

  • Rakim Allah In my Opinion the Best m.C. of the 80s. Nice BOmbings in the Background

  • this beat iz fresh 4 breakin' thnx 4 da post :)

  • Rakim is the man! He is in a class all by himself. Nobody can touch the prophecy professer.

  • let knowledge be born!

  • I wish rakim came with rap songs dissin every wack ass rapper Lil Wayne and Soulja Boy,

  • haha he don't have to man they ain't even on his radar.

  • why bother.

  • rakim is definitely on my 5 TOP rappers.

    one of the greatest rappers ever PERIOD

    Dont sweat the technique is a classic album, like all the others albums of Rakim with Eric B

  • RAKIM LYRICAL MONSTERRRRRRRRR

  • This man if a fucking lyrical GENIUS!!! How does he do it where does it come from?? just BRILLIANT!

  • Meaning:

    When you pick up the mic to challenge Rakim it becomes a hand grenade, so you better keep away from it. Just pass it back to him.

    "I filled the mic with explosives and lit it up, it got to heavy to hold he couldn't pick it up, pass the mic let him try to get paid, he hit the stage it went off like a hand grenade. Now scrape him off the floor and off my list, i aint a soloist i'm an arsonist" -Rakim, No Omega.

  • .......................pass the hand grenade

  • Fuck Lil' Wayne

  • What does Lil Wayne have to do with this?

  • dont matter,

    bottomline: Fuck. Lil. Wayne.

  • This is the illest shit ever. Nothing can touch this. Rakim The God Emcee! Don't sweat the technique!

  • this song is mad hot. no one is messing with this lyrical god. NOBODY!!!

  • I had to look twice I could have sworn that I wrote these words!

  • listen to repeat 20 times !!!slammin!!!

  • I just heard this song recently, And I love it. I'm a big Eric B. & Rakim fan, but i've never heard this song before in my life, I know all they other hits. This one is for anybody who think Lil Wayne is the "Best Rapper Alive". I like Wayne but, best alive!?! Listen to Rakim.

  • please stop mentioning lil wayne.

  • "please stop mentioning lil wayne" I totally agree. What's sad is that people are still doing that shit on every decent hip hop vid a year later, lol.
