  • Rakim- jeden z niewielu raperów który nagrywa prawdziwy rap.

  • they really know how to rap - no bikini bitches in the background and no expensive cars ...just all of them together rappin'

  • Rakim 50 and still rapping and no one says nothing. Jz 40 and ppl complaining about him still rapping. So they really complaining about him being filthy rich and successful

  • @Jerz1983 Rakim and Jay-z are almost the same age.

  • DONT READ THIS, Im a rapper/producer workin out of Philly. Im not the typical product you might think of when you hear ‘rapper/producer from philly’. My music is my life and I take it very serious. The music that I release is on point as far as production and I’ll let you be the judge of the content and flow.

    Give some of my songs a listen and you wont regret using the time to hear me, in fact I almost guarantee you will walk away saying he’s got 'IT'. Thanks 4 your time, appreciate the support

  • @eBossMusic im from philly so i support you no matter what. my cousin is looking for production. his rap name is pride. you can find that on facebook.

  • @Loyalty1269 word mann... i only have a Like page on FB so i cant look at other profiles... but tell him to get at me on here... send me a message, im down to link up

  • @eBossMusic cool man. he also has a youtube page under the name Maxenevitable... checkem out. some old stuff is on there. he just put out his first solo mixtape which is amazing for 19 years old... tellem his cousin referred you to him. Letem send you the mixtape

  • @jhnevans751: I'm sick of all these How To Rap books. Just plain stupid! And it's laughable to try and sell something that brothers like Rakim NEVER needed in the first place! Inspiration is all you need, and skillz! Some don't have it, some do. If you need a book to tell you how to rap, logic dictates that we'll never hear your name in the same sentence as, say, Rakim, KRS-One, Nas, GZA. How to Rap? If you have to ask this, then don't!

  • @MrJazzHOP I could see people using as a point of reference or just a genuinely fun read. You can't be "taught" how to rap, imho. Rapping just comes to you the more and more you observe it.

  • i got respect 4 dis video rakim's a legend and maino getting there to much luv

  • when did this come out?

  • this song needed akon//

  • @julioholderbusiness is that a serious statement. 

  • hes too old he needs a label and a young crew to pump out..

  • You want Freebeats ? You want high quality Beats ?

    You want every week new beats ?

    Than come in my chanel, check my beats,

    give me Feedback and sub me, you like the Beats

  • No comments! Rakim alot

  • @fabdelcool no disrespect but its Rakim ALLAH. As u were...

  • I got more respect for maino since i heard this song with rakim

  • I got love for Rakim but his old ass needs to hang it up already.

    50 yr old thug is OG (old and gay)

  • @ry27sm dnt think of it him as a thug now cuz of his age. Think of him as a Wiseman, a sage, the Gandolf of Hip Hop ;) (He is 43 btw)

  • @ELBoxxerDave that aint old

    there a lot of thugs at this age

  • This my shit. From the projects to the ARMY repping Jersey, going hard over in afghanistan eliminating anything early. My eyes is open now and I'll be home in 2012 getting ready for the revolution. You either with us or you with our corrupt ass government. I hope you all are ready to stand by me and my niggas from all hoods. Get your guns and ammo up cause the real war in America is coming!!!!!!!

  • Rakim said "swag". My heart is broken.

  • @landcrusher3000 i didnt catch him saying it, but i feel the same way if he did

  • I like this song by Rakim and Maino.

  • Before I die I must see Rakim on live!

  • this mofo doesnt change .... he iz real like was 20 yrs ago not like some uour beloved rappers who turned pussies nowdays singing some shit about sweat with david guetta LOL )) Ra iz da man

  • rakim still rules the rapgame!

  • Rakim's always talkin about hater, but what gets me is how does anyone hate on Rakim ?

  • I'm 17 but I gotta say this: none of you teens will ever understand the R, unless you really take the time to STUDY not listen STUDY this man lyrics and flow. Either do that, or go back and dickride Eminem and YM and whatever shitty 'artists' ur radio plays nowadays. Legends like him had to WORK and PERSEVERE to get where they are now. Unlike today where a recrod label can take any untalented gangster, and hoe make them sound like a robot and then it sounds good in a heartbeat. pfff pathetic.

  • @ELBoxxerDave fucking kiddo.Em got everythang for free? yea? i do agree bout todays fake gangsta rappers but Em is as much legendary as Rakim. this fucking racist thang goin on bout Em makes me want paint myself white just to be on intelligent side of society

  • @ELBoxxerDave Retarded dude? Rakim praises Em in an interview. You realize that Ems three first albums are considered legendary, its like 3 Illmatics right there. In my opinion, and this is MY opinion, Em is the greatest lyricist to ever touch the mic. He isn't as raw as in his earlier days, but he is still spitting fire, just for a different reason now.

    Don't get me wrong, I have mad respect for Rakim, KRS-One and other pioneers but yo.. Putting Em in the same category as YM? Get outta here!

  • @bergpew I hear people like you so often that state Eminem is subSTANstially better than every other MC that has ever picked up a MIC. Statements like that are so ludicrous. Don't get me wrong, he's a great lyricist, but saying "it's like 3 Illmatics right there" LOL, yeah and my name is Michael Jordan. There are MCs who are better than Eminem and I know cause I've heard their entire discography (from what I could find of course). MCs like Elzhi, Kool G Rap, Pharoahe Monch, Aceyalone, Canibus...

  • Respond to this video...  this track is ok..it's the lerics thats hitten..it is what it is....

  • @jmonjy23

    Yeah i put biggy. top 15 ? i mean everybody got their opinion , but if you google or look in the internet top 5 best rappers , biggie will always be there ... just saying

  • clicks stop to this nonsense lol..sorry rakim,this time=fail

  • bizaare collabo to me..maino?? LOL

  • this track is garbage.. the hook is garbage.. the beat is garbage.. rakim saying "now i make music for the c notes'.. and, well.. maino...

  • greatest of all time man much respect to him im only 22 so im still tryin to learn more about da older mcs and all i hear is dat rakim is where i should start

  • @131093720 What about Face?

  • @131093720 Not bad i would put 2pac at 2nd place but doesnt matters...

  • this shit is the truth and maino is a real dude... that hook is sick also!!

  • fuck biggie and pac. i didn't feel them when they were alive i won't praise them when they dead like other motherfuckers do. rip to guru he was an ill rapper he represented the east. all rappersfrom the east praise rakim they fuckin grew up with eric b and rakim joints so to me he got all due respect.

  • Comment removed

  • 24 haters dont walk these streets

  • It's true: if Rakim married his lyrical dopeness to the beatmaster DJ Premier, we'd have certified Gold by the GOD. However, Ra's mastery of lyrical content is so impeccable that he could quite literally spit to a chorus line of one-hand-clapping Autistic children, and still be on-point! Much respect goes to his street principles: with "artistic differences" with Dre, and Rakim not wanting to gangsterfy his shit is all props to him. Ra is Hip-Hop's GOD MC...bow down and be grateful! Peace.

  • "when i b on the mic" -- certified Gold by the GOD then

  • @Sirgreaseflick Yeah nothing but respect goes to the R. Never conforming f**k Dr Dre. His as came from world class wrecking crew wearing curls and tight sequnce suits. Rakim fan since I ain't no joke!

  • @Sirgreaseflick

    Amen!

  • @Sirgreaseflick wow man with your writing style you should write a book

  • @Sirgreaseflick WORD!

  • Comment removed

  • I walk these streets, think like I got a gun in my hand 'cause hatin is the nature of man Just stay outta my waaaay

  • Rakim is a " well known artist " but i'm sorry this shit is wack.

  • @Blackseed1978 OH COM ON MAN this track is dope better than anything youre going to get from rap now

  • @xhoni123456 Lol are you serious ? don't get me wrong i like Rakim not to much of a Maino fan but sorry i've heard so much better from rap right now i can run through a list of songs and artist im not hating i have an opinion that i'm entitled to.

  • @Blackseed1978 you said you respect rakim (so i dont have nothing else to say )

  • it was the best thing ive ever done!!

  • im so happy that rakim is going to be in germany (monsters of rap tour) im going to his concert in Münster i hope i can take some pictures with him :D

    Beatnuts, Smif-N-Wessun and Dj Premier are there too...

    thats going to be the best thing this year :D

  • im guna see blackstar de la soul n rakim tonight !

  • @marksman3000 yer i am going tomorrow, to the manchester event, i cant wait its going to be amazing, you going the london showing right, let us know what it was like !!!!

  • Rakeem needs to hit the gym like Dr Dre and he'll be good, real talk I'm doing it. My man looks neglected.

  • @cortezforever 'and he'll be good' oh of course, the more muscular you are, the better a rapper you are. Lyrics are created through talent and thought, not work outs and 'hitting the gym.'

  • @georgeyb1 Don't get emotional, i mean him well. He don't look healthy like he used to. A bit of gym and good diet will fix that, fact.

  • Chorus sucks. Commercial sound. Ill lyrics spit over watered down ass beat. Typically modern hip-hop

  • rakim been wack, just accept it stans.

  • @AlizeCiz lol i guess every rapper in history is a stan to then? rakim basically re-invented rhyming. you been bumpin weezy though or what ? little wacka flocka? maybe even gucci? you know your shit man.

  • @kennywu2k10 Rakim is washed up. fact.

  • Real Gz Walking the Streets! Guec wat? Im nex 2 Em

  • the illest book to pick up if u into real emceeing is that book where they go thru Rakim's style and interview Big-Daddy-Kane, Kool-G Rap, Masta Ace, Chuck-D, AZ, Q-Tip, Pharoahe Monch, OC, Gift of Gabe +tonz more...

    title of this book is.;; HOW; TO;.RAP

  • One thing we all should take into consideration is the fact that before Rakim, true depth in hip-hop lyricism was rarely implemented in a great deal of rappers' music. Though he wasn't the only one to serve as a pioneer of this most necessary injection, he was the master of it. This is why (and you can research this) he was awarded the crown and title as the "god emcee"--especially since he ushered in the era of emcees calling themselves gods and earths in correlation to the 5% Nation of Islam.

  • wanna hear a joke?....LIL. WAYNE!

  • @x2therex wanna hear a true story? ......RAKIM! :D

  • fu*k yearh, thats dope!

  • No love for Rakim? That's like hating Hip-Hop. He's Gold. The "R" is iconic, incomparable, peerless in flow, even the left over crumbs in the booth are gold filings ready to be melted down on wax for future DOPE shit. Headphones, hoody, the R in my dome, that's my morning marathon anthem. Mirror mirror on the wall, whose the greatest MC of them all? Easy, it's The God, Rakim.

  • Lyrics are ok, however it's never classic Rakim, where's the ill, bouncing beat, this is beats by numbers and could have come from any album from anywhere...shame. Every Rakim track was a classic one time...

  • KING!!!!!!!!

    

  • This Is RAW!

  • Rakim and Mayo? I mean maino? Deliberate typo folks. Shock'd when i found out that Rakim made a track with mayo. He forgot the ketchup. The mustard with the custard and etcetera of internal ingredients that is necessary to make a sandwhich. It's not like rakim to forget such things. :D

  • rakim ft azad guerilla

    her bjji kurdistan

    kurs power 4 ever

    azad bozz

    rakim king of rap :D

  • @kurdistan971 hes not the king of rap kid bitch pussy wouldntgo on b4 tech n9ne because he knows hes shit compared to him pussy ass nigga listen to tech n9ne -blown away. know some shit bout this pussy.

  • @GuinevereNR1 i dont speak english homi

  • @GuinevereNR1

    did you honestly just diss rakim?

    if there was no rakim there would be no tech n9ne's corny ass.

    and i wouldn't go on with tech n9ne either he's an embarassing corny uncle tom ass motherfucker.

  • @groalerable i now this and hes not corny your funny. k lets look back at old rap compared to now.. actualy scratch that compare tech to rakim then shove a penis into your anus. and tech im pretty sure isnt an embarrassment pretttttty sure he wasnt wearing ridiculous clothing lol. oh noe he paints his face cool. comparing tech to rakim is fucking halarious because rakim is shit lyrically musically and just bad kk

  • @groalerable i give him the respect he deserves for helping rap but nothing more i dislike his music and being a bitch cause you dont want to go on before someone is pussy kid go to sleep. 

  • Rakim, you young muthafuckas, Rakim! Puts your Whiz, Wacka and West to shame!

  • Comment removed

  • @BigLBigPunBiggie With all due respect sir, "rappers these days"? Without rakim? The majority, in my opinion, of "mainstream" rappers are unrelated to anything that hip hop representED. Intellectually, creatively, honestly, and with a major lack in style. Underground today is ehh..ok. Like Sage Francis said, "HIP HOP is not on the radio." The "hip hop industry" is strictly business. And glamour. Today, it's all about image and the how good a song "sounds", rather then what it means. Thumbs UP.

  • @johndoe7033 I agree.

  • do not understand how people will find this song and dislike it! must be some 13 year old kids thinkin lil waynes style is the good music is hip hop and this is rubish. lil wayne and any1 who sound like him should not be classed as hip-hop in the same category as tupac biggie eminem rakim gangstarr mobb deep

  • shit! man i wonder if drake and wayne are watching this and being like "maaaan we fucking sucks balls"

  • Rakim is the fuckin man.. respect

  • For me this was one of the worse songs on the album. It makes him look a lot worse. That album was pretty good. This song just wasnt.

  • Still the shit!!

  • straight new york shit! love it

  • al times best mcee! very stupid beats on this album dough

  • @daserazbereme naa bro, i compl
