MC Jazzy Jeff (of Funky 4 + 1) - King Heroin

[SDSOverfiend]

You see what the Bronx used to look like? As a kid whenever i thought about the bronx i thought of burned down houses and vacant lots. The message was always in the song and with this as a backdrop why the hell would you do drugs.

[npwme]

see how rap used to say DON"T do drugs, not today its kool to do them according to today's rappers

[LBJTV]

@npwme yes but lets be realistic here..these guys all did drugs anyway..but at least they projected a positive image and left their personal lives personal.

[sam0016]

[kimsmells1]

[IceManLikeGervin]

Pure cognitive hiphop butta- baby Paul!!

Nowadays all corporate sponsored rappper/hustlers talk about is selling and doing drugs in their music.smh

Edutainment >> entertainment!!

[TrippleH655321]

it reminds me of the message.

[dua72]

This was made in the midst of the crack era.When hiphop artists tried to steer kids away from drugs.I give this classic 4 stars and much respect considering teenagers made alot money in the dope game then. He showed in the video the bad effects of people being hooked on drugs and how it destroyed communities across the nation.Notice at the end of the video he is walking with a little girl which symbolized where the future of the next generation going to be,This is such an underrated classic.

[ebeeze824]

@dua72 this was originally made by James Brown but Jazzy Jeff put the hip hop spin on it when the drug era was going into a full upswing
