Anyone know the song/beat from the Busta Rhymes freestyle at 3:25 ??

[angelosass]

Very nice vid. Awesome radio show. Check out "Love, Fear & Loathing" Its making buzz online.

[alogstnona]

@angelosass I love that video Love, Fear & Loathing! They have another one I like as well I think its called "Outro" and its by Noraa Ish

[SilverSafe1]

@angelosass Kid Pistol and Noraa Ish are tearing it up all over the NorthWest! Love, Fear & Loathing is their most popular vid but they have many more beats.

[CrownPointRocks]

@SilverSafe1 Yes I like "Your killin Me Smalls" by Kid Pistol and Noraa Ish

[PortlandMusicBox]

[KAtotheT]

I just got into radio myself - Eventually I am going to get my own station and get the people back involved - I want to bring radio back to when it was fun - Call in Freestyles, features artists directly from the people - I am working my ass off right now to make that possible!!

[XTRABIG]

@KAtotheT

get at me kid!! let me know if you want some ideas. I'd luv to be a part of something like this.

[KAtotheT]

@XTRABIG - I actually have it started now - I have 1-2 hr long shows 3-5 times a week streamed online - I feature Up and Coming artists weekly, and I just started doing call-in freestyles every Thursday via Skype - I have links on my channel to contact me - Let me know your ideas!! - Id like this to grow bigger

[DLS4B]

strange how not more video footage from this superflous© show surfaced!

[ShadowXFX1]

rip Big L

[digitalcubism]

I'm from England. I used to get my friends to import tapes of your show to the UK. Sometimes you guys used to chat shit for hours upon hours. Nevertheless, I used to import that shit because it was fucking hilarious!!! Big part of Hip Hop!!! Bless - hope Stretch and the crew are eating healthy and living the life - 1

[druha10304]

You got the joint with anna marie?

[GiantStarRecords]

Bob - If you're around and see this... I'm sittin' here... 34 years old... noddin' my head to Mobb Deeps demo playing on your Reunion show. I really can't express the feeling of elation that this is giving me. Hands down the best Hip Hop show... ever. Period. I miss it DEARLY.

Thanx for the great music, corny jokes and laughs over the years bruddah!

A taste of Cadbury forever! And keep munchin' on a cheesecake!

[TheBuggedOutKids]

@GiantStarRecords Yo is that Stretch?

[erholung]

[98bigbutt]

To bobbtiogarcia,you and stretch should go on sirius/XM satellite radio play some underground like you did in the old days.

[illest22]

@98bigbutt for what? just listen to the old tapes. underground hiphop is garbage now.

[98bigbutt]

To clubactionzone,you're absolutely right.

[krugthetroll]

[ncsu24fan]

"Die Musicbox tribes FM Part 1"

[clubactionzone]

greatest underground hip hop radio show of all time

[camelbumper]

Golden! I loved how Sear used to clown hard core dudes from the hood talking that Thug Ish. They promoted and defused the nonsense creatively.

[bigrich537]

[wwf8499]

[blockroyal4life]

A-Tone DA BUCHA from Jersey City!?!?WHATS GOOD??? ..he was a top 5 freestyler on the show @ one point (behind Craig G , Nas , Black Thoughts , King Sun) it was in the Rap Pages mag ... show that man some love! Many artist got they style from Bucha .. Bobbito & Stretch can co-sign ... for example: LITTLE GUN & BIG TROUBLE - instant classics!!! 201 stand up ... R.I.P Tito "SCREW' Montanez .. this is where it all started .. XCZ .. Double Barrel ... Gun Massive ... Block Royal .. we miss you Screw!

[SaintIzzle]

@blockroyal4life ...yeah tone was nice...but I would never put Nas on a "Top 5 FREESTYLER"...he's a good writer....but off top...he's questionable

[westwatford]

is there a movie or longer version of this?

[MrGooie]

dIVE INTO THE AISLE WITH YOUR MOUTH OPEN. dUDE FOR ME FROM 4:30 - 5 AM WAS THE best!!! LORD SEAR KILLED THAT SLOT

[uselesspieceofsheet]

@MrGooie Lord sear still kills it on shay45

[BxDueceDueceKilla]

[sid666kurt]

[DJDELZTV]

THOUGHS WHERE THE DAYS

[vsmokethon]

when this show went off .thats wen hip hop died.. i miss this fucking show

[phatdaddy151]

Yo Bobby it's dat dude from da brix dat used to run wit da artifacts aka dats dem yoi definately still listen to my old ass cassette tapes dat are are still together!!!

[ree9c1]

I used to stay up all night to catch this show. I remember falling to sleep with my tape deck on record and listening to what i miss the next day in school.

[uselessvideo]

WORRRRRRRD!! LOL

In the '80s, I used to go visit my fam in NY and be up all night taping KiSS and WBLS at my grandma's house. Then I'd bring that shit back home to Maryland and had nigg*s like "DAAAAAAMN"! In the early '90's I'd be bringin Stretch and Bob tapes back to my dorm and have the whole hall BUMPIN! LoL

[Randleman2]

greatest of all time

[razprblade71mob]

No radio show cant touch Stretch and Bobbito.

[xxjaberwockyxx]

WHat's the beat that starts at 0:30?

[dome1984]

whoa.. mobb deep - shook ones pt2

[xxjaberwockyxx]

Thanks. I knew it sounded familiar, but couldn't put my finger on it. Last time I listened to that song it was the DOOM remix.

[naturefreedom]

Man I miss this show man!! I used to stay up maddddd late recording this haha...What the Fukk??? NO BIG L Freestyle??

[gringomontana]

fuk man i used to stay up till 3:30 - 4 am taping this show. wake up at 7am to go to school, then go to work after school till 10pm crazy tired but it was worth it!

[nycsk8ur]

big ups to this, used to leave my tape deck recording all night n bump that shit on my walkman the next day

[DonLeoMarin]

Man those were the days. I think once Bobbito's left the show everything went down hill for hip hop in NY.... Bob would give UNKNOWN emcees a chance and played a lot of demos. He'd also have up and coming rappers go up there like Cam'ron, Nas, Big L and spit on the mic.... I think if Bob stayed around longer NYC hip hop would of still been on top. We need Bob back or a CLONE of him to save us!!!!!!

[illest22]

@DonLeoMarin O SO BOB RAN HIPHOP IN NEW YORK

WHAT BEATS DID HE DO? LOOK I KNOW BOB AND HES AN ILL CAT. BUT TO SAY ONCE HE LEFT THE SHOW HIPHOP IN NY WENT DOWNHILL IF FUCKIN NONSENSE

[DonMelodie]

[jm183]

yo, in this day and age of everything popping up on youtube how come there is so much video footage of these freestyles at kcr(which we just saw in this video) and none of it on youtube.

someone is being greedy with their video collection.

[abacus217]

[smilezdavis]

[T00binitNY]

89 tek 9 baby.respect those days chillen in the crib with the red box 90 minute maxell tape layin in the deck on pause waiten to hit record at 1 am and have that shit recordin all the way til 5 am every thursday night.

Peace to the good ol days.one love.

[HitMan1263]

It pisses me of so much how bobbito only mentioned big l forlike half a second, when big l was the nigga that gave bobbito the most love, he spit on strech and bobbito show like 12 times more than anyone else i know.

[UnbelievableFlava]

yeah i noticed that

hes the only nigga that gave him a shoutout on his demo track

unexpected flava

half of big Ls history of music was on the stretch & armstrong show

[bkbushwick]

ya'll just dont know. every thursday night I got 5 tapes ready and just recorded this entire show. it was the epicenter of hip hop. if you never got a chance to hear this show you truely dont know what you missed. 1am to 5 am they played shit that didnt come out for years. yes years. plus they played shit you never heard and never will hear. god bless stretch and bobbito. lord seer used to diss the shit out of the callers. columbia university radio. i listened religously. mad props due!!!

[n0sleep134]

GREAT SHOW,, i Met Bobbito in person.. cool dude

[jayluv369]

many shows WERE good, but 89tek9 DOES hold da undisputed crown that set da pace for all shows to premier artist undaground and signed alike in raw freestyle form. i rem. when DMX fu@*#d up an los da beat. even NAS had to stop an start again. my biggest disappointment is how fresh common sense was back then, and now as common hes just, well, common. 1 of my fav was all wu-tang up in da house. i met bob 1day on b'way-that night he gave me a shout out. v.s.4me! much love 4eva to stretch n bobbito!!

[Imakebeats65]

yea but what about W.H.B.I. with the Supreme team, Jerry Bloodrck, Mr.Magic, The Awsome Two,Hank love etc.. When you say best of all time you have to consider everyone never mind red alert and chuck chillout...

[dev23adip]

[dev23adip]

He said "storied areas of my life" which is in fact, a perfectly acceptable sentence.

[NoDeth]

u looked at digg to get to this link

[beornborg]

That must have been a blast. The 90s were a great period. I'm surprised they didn't shut you down for the profanity.

[xmobik]

i grew up with the brother permanent, but rogain exist

[tmxpix]

Looove this footy. Stretch and Bobbito kept NYC radio real when the pop R&B stations were hardly giving pittance time to hip hop. Propers Bobbito! My cassette tapes of your old shows wore out too long ago. Miss them greatly! Thanks for posting this and keeping history alive.

[extrasmurfy]

Yeah, because none of those people make music anymore. If people aren't played on the radiio they must not exist.

And p2p doesn't exist, so there's no way you can just go look their new stuff up, right now, free.
