Eric B & Rakim - Make Em' Clap To This

[bigfish7667]

4 stooges, looks like Shemp stepped up also

[Terence7414]

@bigfish7667 ..lmao

[qubicles]

U know what's funny? Back them old heads looked at hip hop as bad music, hell a lotta people did! But now that u look back,compared to half of today's rap, old school hip hop was the most positive hip hop!

[xbmth101x]

@qubicles they didnt see hip hop as "bad" music. they saw the west coast gangsta rap as bad music. they bumped this hip-hop bro!

[qubicles]

@xbmth101x Hmm. Never looked at it that way.

[23richyrich]

I bought this cd at FRY's and couldn't believe it was only $5.00... I took advantage of it

[webennett1]

Damn the Memories... this is the Chit that got me through my teen years..

[irishsid13]

Ahhhhhhh...nothing like a good shot of a rap artist(s) with a heavy dose of actual talent.

[mikemillion2000]

Ok, does anyone have the original track.. this was the remix they started playing on the radio... c'mon man.. LOL

[Geez331]

the 80's was the shit. sorry kids.



[chuci1213]

@Geez331 let's not forget the 90's

Those 20 years in my opinion just dominate completely

[MrJulyboom]

@Geez331 word and the late 70s

[wgamador]

Welcome to my childhood.

Still the Best Shit around!!!!

[bcancun123]

Pipe sound was genius 

[Boy22Wonder]

This is the best beat ever created man I want this so bad

[Try2MakeSenseOrSTFU]

WORD!

[LocateShootKill]

The most awesome thing about Rakim was even tho he was the voice, he always made sure Eric B. was in his rhymes. The R is all about loyalty, inner strength and positivity. Some thing "crap rap" lost along time ago. I'm an old school hip hop historian so feel free to pick my brain.

[gregoir]

wow! timeless classic! I hardly like any rapp anymore but this n the d.o.c. is still cool..gonna search too short next lol....just in a weird mood, went to AZ to see my old best ffriend from Tonawanda NY, I moved to Ohio he moved to AZ..anyways, been thinkin high school all week!lol

[trevspeaks3]

[cooltowncat]

for all you true music lovers... if you dig this one as much as i do, check out funky president by James Brown. big ups to all yall who used to throw down the cardboard and battle other crews to this joint!

[lilrabbitcuz]

[LALOMAN18]

Paid In Full was the only album that Eric B. & Rakim did good, the rest that followed sucked ass! If you think that Rakim rocks it good here check out EZB and DJ Los "Untouchable" album of 1988... now there's some freakin' talent!

[XionDragonLord]

You cant say that because I was born 1992 and I Had to earn my respect around here in NY and im just 16, I guarantee If I was born in like 1972 I would make it . ANd I would have probably been born in South Side Jamaica Queens cuz I used to live there, and I would of had to deal wit Fat Cat and the Supreme Team

[bademployee]

@XionDragonLord sounds like u got heart....ill back u youngin....lol peace!!!

[bademployee]

i remember when cats had to earn the RIGHT to come outside dressed like this. nowadays any asshole, punk ass, half homo can walk around playin thug and never ever ever get checked. youngins you better thank god that you were born when you were cause a LOT of you wouldnt make it

[DCUnited4]

[alvanson]

damn b you broke it down, like my man above said it. NYC in the early 80's was no joke. I don't know about the 70's since I was too young to remember now. I am 39 and things are so much easier for these niggas now.
