[XBLYouLikeTurtles]

how to rap sounds more like a cult the way you people promote it. its the top comment on all these vids. it sounds like a great book but i mean really....

[boogaloo209]

love old skoo check out binary star

[crazycrash313]

oh, 1992, nevermind, this was made the year i was born, damn, theres still music like this out there, u just gotta look hard, cause its all on the indie scene, and the underground scene, music with real meaning

[SnookyDre]

[figureitoutmannn]

If I was your man, I'd be true, the only lying I'd do would be in the bed with you...need a man like that...pass him by teach...I'll pick up your scraps! (and I'm quite flyyyy!) :)~

[thelateoscar]

drove me crazy looking for that loop at the beginning but i found it, pretty sure its jimi hendrix 's are you experienced, no? :D \m/

[rabihvu]

@thelateoscar

hell no..?! :O It's from Quincy Jones - Summer in the city

[L10Rocs]

@rabihvu

Actually, the beginning part is Jimi Hendrix from Are You Experienced. The main sample is Quincy Jones.

[beeceecsws]

yess indeedy i wrote graffitti-sickkk shitt

[SuperPrincessnisha]

A guy told me i keep passing him by and sent me this song lol

[DCMONEY27]

13 People Got Tired Of Getting Passed By...

[qedqwafeatg1337]

BEST!!!

[KyplayaZ4lyfe]

the last verse is tooooo dope.

[ChocolateBox88]

this shit is beyond the word dope.

[jason042907]

The 13 ppl that disliked this should face a firing squad... 13 shotgun blasts...lol

[Roxanne916143]

lol he keeps passin Me by :)

[ShAySlIm130]

I love these guys

[sashacooper58]

The song is cool and funny but the pharcyde passin me by is damn good!

[BiodyneWellness]

I loved this song in the 90's. There were just a handful of words I didn't have accurate. Now that I see them, I think the song is even more genius. I always read the posts on these old classics. It is true, new music of this genre is severely lacking. Hip Hop was not a term I used back then. I always called it RAP, which stands for Rhythmic American Poetry. Someone in the biz ought to recognize that what we hear as new releases now is NOT Rhythmic and its not Poetry. Pharcyde = Genius Lyrics

[Scholt45n2zigzags]

props if you know the beat comes from Nightmares on Wax and its fucking dope

[Soggytaco25]

@Scholt45n2zigzags what song from Nightmares on Wax?????

[1stexitus]

@Soggytaco25

Nightmares on Wax - Smokers Delight .. :P !!

[Scholt45n2zigzags]

@Soggytaco25 Nights Interlude

[bigkev9539]

I don't get why Hip-Hop fans could possibly dislike a song like this. Is there something wrong with you, or do you dislike it just to make people angry at you. You need to recognize a good song when you hear it and stop trying to like some of the crap that they put out today.Stop trying to be like everyone else who wants to get 100 mill. views on a Lil' Wayne song. He's one of the most overrated rappers ever, along with Rick Ross, Drake, and (especially) Lil' B.(Lil' B's the WORST rapper EVER!)

[kingtoby3]

@bigkev9539 i just listened to lil b youre right he is shit, he was good for one thing though, he makes this song sound so much better when i listen to it straight after.

[bigkev9539]

I like how they don't call the girl out of her name or anything. She was simply passing him by. I like how @Scories77 put it. Rap is lacking humility. 

[xxxM0STWANTEDxxx]

I am really feeling this song right now. Especially because I just told a girl I cared about her but she didn't feel the same. Damn...

[HerkemerSeven]

Forgot how sick these guys are!!!! I used to bump this shit in my white suburban hood....1991 Suckas!!!!

[Orangebike666]

Why do I have goosebumps?

[PsychoSocial1212]

@Scories77 that Is the wisest shit I've ever read on YouTube....

[TheCommenter71]

12 didnt let her pass by

[Scories77]

This shows what rap music is lacking the most : humility.

[Econ1260MetZRoberto]

Couldn't agree more!

[InsomniacWizard]

@Scories77 there it is

[sammygun]

@Scories77 absolutely. rap and hip-hop should not be about content, so much as the style. The Pharcyde had it right

[102rancid]

I like the are you experienced guitar sample in the beginning, Jimi lives on bitches.

[rikka1287]

@Scories77 and sadly sense....smh

[Skurai477]

@Scories77 worrdd

[rikka1287]

@Scories77 And sense....this is real life....all these rappers talk about a whole bunch of shit they dont have....where is message.....where is the realism behind it....sickening

[Scories77]

@rikka1287 : If not realist, they could use their imagination a little more as well.

[rikka1287]

@Scories77 exactly....but being what you are not....send a horrible message...and just look at the youth!!

[hidralisk95]

 /slap 12 people disliked..

[MrRomeosBoy]

I could listen to this song for days on end

[bigkev9539]

This is one of the greatest Hip-Hop songs of all time in my opinion.

[slimarsh]

@bigkev9539 i agree

[cruzdablok]

THATS BETTER GOOD SOUND.. I cudnt slag off the 179 ppl that disliked the other poor quality vid but u 12 twats swallow satans sperm and enjoy evry minit ov it.

[wmautoreach123]

this fits my life!

[Ahollo311]

This is the best version...this is the original right?!

[NuMeskeetVideos]

[PsychoSocial1212]

Damn I wish I wasn't such a wimp!!!

[lilballagirl]

[hothi92]

[hothi92]

@hothi92 to say*

[hothi92]

@hothi92 would* God I'm a retard sometimes...

[711mind]

classic takes me back to elementary when I was just 7 lol

[clarencejones07]

the guys from Pharcyde go through exactly 'HOW. TO. RAP''

thats is what the title is of the book they were to spoken-to in...

its an inncredible book, all the golden era guys are in there, Chuck D, Kane, G Rap, Tribe,,etc

[pasy2006]

FUCK THE 12 HATERS, THIS SONG ROCKS:):):)

[wmautoreach123]

i like the part where he says passin' me by!!

[boardingtj]

"Return to Sender" Damn!

[MrSouthSioux]

[MrOahuGrown]

@ncdc123 yup

[blimbos]

The written Lyrics miss the best verse of the song:

"I guess a twinkle in her "eye" is just a twinkle in her "I""

[sickstyseven]

I seen her yesterday but still I had to let her pass... :/

[EatitAlive]

check out sickshit by infinite hype

[DrSmeatballs]

This song hooked me like a salmon on a line of hip-hop.

[InsomniacWizard]

I thought of this song when i saw her today in the hallway at school

[mike131279]

@xtomx82, there are actually to recordings of this. There isn't much difference between the two, but the flow of the third verse is a little different. It's funny this version is actually the one I always remembered most, but the other one is the more commonly played one.
