DJ Hurricane, Xzibit, Big Gipp, and Pharoahe Monch - Connect

[SurgeCess]

Yo, f-ck those 2 haters, this is a true hidden gem right here, its got raw power in the beats and sick MC's on the rhymes, what more could you want? I love Big Gipps verse.

[ExpertHipHop]

Sorry he said "let go, brew, trapped in tragic addiction" etc

[Lorenshyne]

Gipp is aight but Monch is annoying.

[ExpertHipHop]

@Lorenshyne Are you kidding? Monch is one of the legends of Hip-Hop, he's up there with Nas, Black Thought, 2Pac, Biggie, Rakim, O.C., etc etc...He destroyed that verse! "You have to listen, brew, trapped in a tragic addiction/Styles, multiply like Japanese mathematicians" that was dope! His flow was complex, and he made great metaphors. A contender for the best verse on the track. Gipp wasn't horrible, but he was pretty close.

[Lorenshyne]

@ExpertHipHop Who is Black Thought i donno him.

[ExpertHipHop]

@Lorenshyne You might not have heard his name. Have you heard of The Roots??? They're one of the only legit BANDS in Hip-Hop, he's the MC of the group. You should listen to some of their stuff. Mostly the albums "Things Fall Apart" and "Illadelph Halflife", those are their two best albums. You'll probably like them if you like the "golden era" of Hip-Hop. I'm very surprised you don't know him though. You heard of Ras Kass? Canibus? Killah Priest? Common? Mos Def? KRS? The list goes on and on

[groalerable]

@ExpertHipHop

eminem and pharoahe monch are better than everybody technically

[ren2020ky]

@ExpertHipHop damn, why did u leave out so many names?

[Graail7]

@Lorenshyne :/....suck...you....really....­..Black Thought? you ever heard of The Roots?

[Lorenshyne]

@Graail7 Yeah yeah but the Roots meant Questlove, Rahzel and Scott Storch for me.

[iconpoet]

Like the video and the song...I thought the chorus was wack...but that doesn't take away from it all. Thumbs up.

[BlaccTrash]

Garbage

[Khultan]

Yawn. Boring ass themes and video. Outta here....

[Agenda1988]

@Khultan good thing you stuck around to leave a comment, lol...

[Khultan]

@Agenda1988  And so, what? You hittinn' for kickbacks for that?

[Agenda1988]

@Khultan No.

[Khultan]

@Agenda1988  ?Que pasa, cabron?

[Agenda1988]

@Khultan No.

[TIGAakaMAMAFATKAT]

yea I loved this joint...nice collabo "shit will blaze will make a nigga act his age"--whoo xzibit was raw

[Kell1295]

The only way this gets spun at home it has to be censored, except the chorus

(bounces off)

[Korppi13]

Havent heard this one before and im a big Monch fanatic. Thank you.

[llmax3000ll]

I like the gipp style

[huntedrasta]

agenda1988:

i am in complete agreement. pharoahe monch my fave rapper, but xzibit killed it here

[Agenda1988]

that's tight, love seeing other people who think Monch is #1 :)

Xzibit is too great on this beat though.

[huntedrasta]

respect. one other thing that bothers me though is that it's censored... :( maybe that's one of the reasons pharaohe's verse is harder to appreciate, his silences can be confused with the parts where they actually cut him you know?

[Agenda1988]

ah yeah, that's true...I still think Monch's verse is dope though. I don't even have a good quality version of the song, it's the most fucking hard song to find! lol. Other people have upped this song's video after me, they might have the uncensored version.

[Agenda1988]

nvm, this version is uncut.

[MsHurra]

hurricane is the real deal

[jbriggity]

I don't love Hurricane's rapping, but he can put a song together. This is a niiiice posse jam

[Kell1295]

Jamming!

[BerniejX]
