[Wisebrother78]

[nevawrong]

1988, i was 16 goin on 17 years old bumpin this song, & im still bumpin this shit today even at 37 years old. its just hard 2 out grow hiphop, the shit is just a real cool & fun culture to have grew up in. i guess thats why u see all those ROCK N ROLL, PUNK ROCK, HEAVY METAL, & DEATH METAL fans love there culture also, i be seeing fans in there 20's, 30's, 40's, & even 50's at those HARD PUNK ROCK concerts even dressing real crazy also, lol. so there's no age limit no more 2 the cultures u love

[kev2128]

I hear that man i was 14!!

[HotGritz910]

Kicking lyrics like this is 1988!!!!...Feel sorry for the young boyz these days..

[sumrandomaccount420]

yeah the shit the music industry makes now is just ruining society, not all of it atleast. thankfully there are sum ppl who spit real raps still, but its rare :(

[MIMIOMAR]

[xaeo]

[MIMIOMAR]

cam is no where near top 10 all time. R u crazy? big daddy kane isnt top 10 either in my opinion but much closer than cam!

[xaeo]

Saying cam'ron is better the big daddy is absolutely fucking insane haha Big Daddy is a god among men.

[wellhiya]

It's just like the video. Big Daddy Kane is an Ace while Cam'ron is a joker.

[stanke89]

he definetly explained some things..

[westside159]

this is what we grew up on Cuzzin , man the 80's was the bomb .....

[5rollin9]

still the shit

[jacobwhatever]

I'm so blown, has anyone heard Biggie's song Microphone Murderer off of his demo? It uses this beat. It's on the soundtrack to the movie you should check it out...I think this is better though.

[cashscholar]

Hip Hop Class of 88 stand the fuck up!!!! One of the most innovative and groundbreaking years for Hip Hop.

[PlzBez2me]

Amen

[youngswagg10]

[getoheisman]

For those that say RAP is still crackin. Your smokin it then. Unless you grew up to this shizz only old school kats in my generations understand the real 80-90 was smashin not only in music...but Sports, Fashion and Party's. Take a look at MJs man they make all kinds of colors and styles shizz is wack wack...Im stickin to wat im sayin..

[oioistone]

the master

[destroyreligion]

What's with everyone saying rap sucks now? There's tons of great rap out now! If your basing your opinion off of radio rap...well what the hell are you listening to the radio for? I'm mostly into metal and if I just listened to metal on the radio I would say metal sucks the big one.

[Loonie30]

I know this is from the 80's n shit, but i wassnt born dem times but i know it was juss as crazy---REAL HIP HOP lived then n its juss dying slowly

[Loonie30]

90's was da time, even though i was a youngin then i still remember it as some crazy years. unlike now with all these ring tone music and dance steps

[porifio]

classic shittttttttttttttttttttttttttt­tttttttttttttttttttt!!! damn i remember when i had this on cassette tape. haha. wore this tape out til my grandma got tired off me playin it...and smashed it with a hammer. yeah, i had a mean religious gramps. still love her, but i hated her that day. hahahahaa memories!

[nikkidoom200]

Microphone murderer is better Biggie killed

[BlackRadical001]

88 year of the gr8 baby

[crazycutz]

AINT NO HALF STEPPIN!.. big ass gold chains and a smooth beat what else is there??

[RealDefentertainment]

A HIGH TOP FADE and four finger ring

it don`t get classic than that

[gosgoskate]

facekilla u got horrible taste in music. Lyrically ur "artist" list cant keep up with Big Daddy Kane, Sugar Hill gang, Spoonie Gee, Biz Markie, 2pac, gangstarr, nwa, pe, ed og, naughty by nature, stetsasonic, tribe called quest, de la soul, pete rock and cl smooth, epmd, eric b and rakim, grandmaster flash, whodini. and thats just the tip of what good hiphop is. you cant make a list of the best mc`s cause there is no #1, each artist brought something different to the table. and i was born in 92'

[celticbeasta5]

[ACMIlan2805]

lol...facekilla must still be in elementary.....im 17 and still enjoy listening old school cuz its smooth unlike rap today....jus my opinion

[killabeez108]

im only 18 and i luv real hip hop i think facekillas kidding, i hate making lists of greatest mc's cuz theres a lot of good ones but that list is by far the biggest joke ive ever seen...wu tang forever!!!

[octogon888]

you must be a 90's child

[westside159]

I Know that list was a joke right ? anyway old school bomb .

[FaceKillaBloodSpilla]

1. bow wow 2. lil wayne 3. ti 4. soulja boy 5. kanye 6. juelz santana 7. birdman 8. arab 9. gucci mane 10. ying yang twins FUCK ALL YOU H8TERZ BOW WOW 4 LYFE

[hiddeninja]

wtf kinda nasty music taste do u got dawg

[theZodiacDigital]

i cant believe people dont understand its a joke. those guys for the most part are absolutely terrible.

[shaneg01]

thast gotta be the worst taste in music. Your either 10 or that is a joke.

[bionicredneck24]

how dare you diss big daddy Kane, he is the absolute best lyricist ever to grab a mic!!! check out smooth operator or any of his songs, i am sorry you are coming up in this era of crap rap. 80s and 90s rap will always rule this category....

[shaneg01]

I was responding to the kid with BOw wow at top 10 I was saying, it must be a joke. so stfu

[Drayton42677]

This is Real HIP-HOP... You Soulja Bitch, Coochie Mane and other BULLSHIT

[shaneg01]

ok Stfu, First of all i was reponding to the kid with the top 10 that, that had bow wo at the top. I wasnt saying anything about Big daddy kane.

[Drayton42677]

I meant to say you must listen to Soulja Bitch and Coochie Mane

[bionicredneck24]

dont get bitch slapped little girl, you better play like roy rogers and "slow down"

[shaneg01]

WOW. Good one, cud u be any gayer.

[bionicredneck24]

kud u rite aney gayer. go back to grammer school fuck jaws and learn how to spell

[N33NJAH]

Now here's a tough one:

Who's better Big Daddy Kane or Rakim?

[cabeson180]

damn, i guess i'd have to say Rakim, but i think a harder question would be "who's better Rakim or KRS-One?"

[theZodiacDigital]

krs one kind of became a joke. maybe its just me. i like his music but every time i hear him speak it's the silliest shit ever. his temple of hip hop shit and "im a prophet / teacher / philosopher" shit gets old. again, i appreciate his music a lot, and i appreciate his contribution and hes a legend and such but seriously his persona is kind of a joke.

[chiladin]

Rakim all day.

[BlackRadical001]

idk Ra has that vicious on going flo Kane got some slick word play that paved the way for most of these rappers claimin they started the punchline thing

[tclokes]

Big Up to Brooklyn!! Second Big Up to Big Daddy Kane and Michael Jordan for unsuring that Dark Skinned brother like me get love!!!

[Cypherchat]

Yeah 88 without the massive crack sales...Youtube has made the radio irrelevant..Yeah this is the return to the underground...If you dont know what to look for dont ask me...Just let the radio feed you a dose of LUDA AND T PAIN.....

[chrisrap4ever]

hes dope!hes a real legend!if things dont change in hip hop,this will never happen again!

[melovely25]

I wish rappers could be like this again but they are phony and pop.Kane wasnt ever.

[Imelph1973]

this is proof that "swagger" B E E N around waaaaay b4 cats like T. I. diplayed it....

LONG LIVE THE KANE!

[elephantusk]

is it me or does BDK look like stewie from at 1:40?

lol, good song tho. didn't the ROC sample this? i believe it was memph bleek...

[jayhoodxxxxxxxxxxxx]

lol he does

[POINTMAN8888]

ONE OF THE DOPEST.....PERIOD

[jeanrollan]

Check out Mark Breland at the end.

[lwfc08]

the whole style was so dope in the late '80s early '90s

[TRINIBOY411]

Im 17 always heard of this dude but never listend to him until i was like 14 but i have to say this dudes a beast. I still love my generations music. My generations mainstream sucks ass but the underground is still beast.

[jeopardy7]

so true he can take you into this lyric world that just makes you want to listen that is why he is a beast

[bobdigi88]

cause they can't hang. word to ya mother. note to rappers. start thinking about lyrics again. i'm starting to snore.

[skeem99]

WHAT A KING!

[rblue060]

Dope azz beat insane lyrics.. i put Big Daddy Kane.. Nas and Rakim top 3 lyricists.. DOPE

[memph1zzz]

ma´ blooood... no color!

[mikesmithsupersaiyan]

If he came out right now, he would put all rappers in their place. Can you imagine the battles that he and Em could have had? They might have reinvented the English language! Long live the KANE!!!!!

[bishopofdanzig]

kane was and is the king - nuff said

[AsiasDad]

this my fav Kane song. he was way ahead of his time.

[DustyIz29]

It is a Damn Shame Big Daddy Kane Doesn't get the Props he Really deserve if it wasn't for him and Rakim there would be no Lil Wayne or Jay Z

[westside159]

What you squares no about Big Daddy Kane Cuzz ? Boy this is what 2PAC , BIGGIE , MC EIHT , DJ QUIK , SCARFACE , NAS , JAY Z , GREW UP ON , BIG DADDY KANE IS A PIONEED BRO. CLASSIC BOMB SHIT

[1phattygurl]

ooooooooooo Big Daddy Kane is the reson why I loveeee a chocolate man!My very first chocolate love lol and it didnt hurt his skills were top notch.

[welarge]

so ahead of his time

[kpb96m]

He has a "Philly" hair style. If it were a bit higher it would be called a "Super Philly". Same deal with

Christopher "Kid" Reid of Kid 'n Play. Reid's visual trademark was his hi-top fade (Philly) haircut, which stood six inches high at its peak.

[thereemix]

what's the

 high-top haircut kane has called ?

[pjslim1976]

kane is a legend

checkout chocolate chip & my uncle & me by slim tha gr8

[illsclusive]

Lets be real videos were alot better 2, alot more creative nowadays all of em look the same

[JoeyRythem]

and really cheesy too lol

[TRKoneAD2]

"Juice Crew All-Stars...oh my goodness!"

[ColtYohn]

Real hiphop!

[Nemron]

Classic shit!

[howvin32]

I was in the 10th grade when this came out. I from GA and I remeber when cats from NY was the shit.Brothers from the south was acting like they was from Ny.The only thing we had down south was Uncle luke and dudes from NY used to clown him.

[cense516]

this is 20 yrs old, yo where did the time go? lol

[lommylom]

i say the same thing all the time

[wontonking]

This is hip hop on the real ya hear. Not none of this lil weezy bullshit we have to deal with now. This is pure hip hop. BTW I wish I could have a high top fade, but I can't since I'm a white boy, and my hair would never stand up like that.

[randomactsofviolence]

vanilla ice had a high top fade

so did mc serch

youd prolly get clowned for doin it in 2008 tho

[oxtails69]

real lyricist. no new skool bullshit

[thoseweredadays]

im tired of this south rap shit.its bullsit.can new york take back over...pleasssssea

[TrunksVegetaSS]

We need the Flat Top back Kane had one of the best :)

[lommylom]

so did kid

[obig6983]

we need real hip hop back

[DustyIz29]

back when Hip Hop was Real!!!!!!!!!!!

[DeamsMusic]

Check out the track State your Game by Deams ft Big Daddy Kane on You Tube, available at iTunes worldwide..

[hilla187]

i wish hip hop was still like this. how is it that rappers can sound like this 20 years ago and not now?? weres the flow dissapeared 2?

[Terrra91]

I wish I grew up in this period a Hip Hop. 50 Cent borez me.

[nevawrong]

i agree with you with the "wanting to grow up in the oldschool era", because i grew up in the oldschool & it was great. but im sorry, because im guilty of loving my man 50CENT'S music tho, especially when they play his music in the clubs :)

[Terrra91]

Yeah I don't blame yuh, its jus his lyrics. Its like yuh hear a 50 Cent song an its like "hmm whats this one gonna be about?"

Its not jus him tho therez too many rappaz that a more repetitive than a skippin record of a parrot with short-term memory loss playin in a cave.

But I don't hate no rappaz, thats a waste a time an tbh deh put some fit women in dem vids so yuh gotta give em some credit.

[mwrr25]

best track of all time.

although the video skips a key mini verse

[toxicwasteoid]

this is my favorite song-not just rap-but of all time. its slightly ahead of "aint it a shame" by the B-52's for the top spot.

[Dangar72]

Yep he's THE MAN!!!

Big respect for this artist that was such a greater level then any rap artist during that time, Only Rakim came close

[knowwotstrue7]

Was this really 20 years ago, I can't believe it!

[nevawrong]

yep, i was 16 goin on 17 years old in 1988, and im 37 years old now in 2008, & i still listen to the oldschool 1980's & 1990's hiphop, because thats what i grew up with. but this new 2000's hiphop is for the kids, and it sounds like GARBAGE. fuck LIL WAYNE & SOULJA BOY, lol lol >:(

[killarmy101]

im 17 right now and the oldschool iz all i listen to i agree fuck lil wayne and soulja boy

[StreetNM]

Swiat sie wali czemu niegrajo tego teraz ? wszystko zchodzi na techo......i rap dzieciakow bitych przez starych........

[jayhoodxxxx]

[jayhoodxxxx]

old schoool

[xreb2008]

Man,some this songs are 20 Years old n still dope as hell !!!

Old School cats like Kane or Slick Rick would kick some rapper´s ass out there today. What a mess they don't come out with some new shit.

"The Name is Big Daddy you know as in ya father so when you hear a dope rhyme believe that im the author"

[macio9]

timeless lyric..BDK top 5 of all time..

[LazyMC23]

This song iz da shit!!!

[Jerzeegeemoney]

" I grab the mic and make emcees evaporate/the party people say damn that rappers great." 20 years later he still is ...peace

[theearlyHIPHOPera]

[Jerzeegeemoney]

[Billytok97]

I can remember taping this on VHS off Yo! MTV Raps and jammin to it all day long. Life wasn't all that bad before MP3's, IPOD's and DVD's and shit. Cassettes and boomboxes were the shit!

[lotuspetal7]

that intro was always ill.."Get Into It" was always the better record though..BDK!

[crastimatic]

2:03-2:04 he says "YouTube".

[IllmaticEscobar91]

-_-

[crastimatic]

Big Daddy Kane is so sexy!

[ELG72]

:01-:14 R-A-W

Classic intro!!

[Xeldominicano2k]

[sphony]

"The Name is big daddy you know as in ya father so when you hear a dope rhyme believe that im the author" so fiya

[gangsterchronicle]

im always stuck hearing this by how effective the production actually is... 99% of the junk backing that hits up tracks these days doesnt come close to touching it.

[franchi123]

classic joint.

everybody who is "interesting" rap, know words of that join; "im diferend so dont compare me to the other"

i luv it!

peace!

[Jarvey72]

Man I use too see him every time he came to Ga, back in the day.

[IvanGrosny86]

Of all these Old School cats there's only Kane and Slick Rick who will still destroy every rapper out there. What a mess they don't come out with some new shit.

[mssharp3]

THE GOOD OLE' DAYZ!

[pharohblood]

I speak clearly so you can understand i put words together like letter man.

[doublegwannabe]

Spent the last 14 years in Thailand (not through choice). Lost my record collection but finding everything on youtube. Thanks to everyone whos posted videos from the golden years! Much love.

[VideoVixen24]

Hold up a peace sign - a salam walakim. Man this was my JAM back in the day. Marley Marl is fine as hell in this video too. When this song came out, I was in school, friends with his sister Kendra. Who knew Marlon would go this far - he's still producing hits.

[juliustheman]

This is still best Rapper alive for me...

Fuck Lil Wayne!

[smoothysmoothy]

why can't today's "rap" be like this?

nowadays it's all about mainstream shit lil' wayne and his shitty lyrics.

[MadSkillzAlx]

He coud be the greatest with right material.

[basicministries]

Classic! I was in the 11th grade when this came out. Great dance music at our dances.We used to rap this whole song when it came on.

[earlgee]

20 Years later and this still dope.

[IOPU187]

[074FaTiiH]

[Hectik17]

This beat was originally sampled from some classic song. the "aint no half steppen" part anyway, a boy had it on tape.
