@jahbewithme yeeeaa true fact.......omg oldschoolrap from the 80s till the mid 90s is soo good that I keep bumping my head to nearly every single song, not only because of the classic beats but also because of the classic lyrics and great messages. That would never happen if I was listening to modern wack rap music(of course there are some exceptions). Flow is bad, no deep lyrical content, just music by some commercialized idiots.
@bustercharl777 i hear you dude. im 20 and ive loved old school shit along time. even some shit up to like 2004 but after that shit got way to commercial. you wanna trade music hit me up. i got a gang of good shit
@PacDivDUi you know lil wayne, justin bieber an all the others you write you hate on good videos, thats why they are famous plz stop write about shit on real hip hop
An artist outside of the studio - raw talent - no fx - that is the mark of greatness. Not all that bull with processed vox & pre recorded. The music put of the studio is good, don't get me wrong, but it is nice to see the forest through the trees.
Chances are, if you grew up in NY during the '80's, you have every word of this song memorized. Back in the day, taping songs off the radio with Memorex cassettes and playing them over and over to learn the lyrics. Aaaah, the good ol' days! True school Hip-hop!
@PacDivDUi Lil wayne is unbelievably talented, just like rick and doug e fresh. People were saying the same shit when la di da di came out, like 'why cant the youth just make nice pretty music like the jackson 5?' times change and sounds change. it's all right
@mobileaarmy Lil Wayne isn't even close to be good as Slick Rick and Doug E. Fresh. Yeah the older generation at the 80's didn't like it because it was a brand new genre.
@PacDivDUi yeah you would have loved it, I'll trade with u, u can live back then and have my life and i can be 15 now..lol..but nah, I wouldn't trade my 80's fun times for nothing. I had the best fun back in the mid 80's. You have no idea, we got away with so much crap.
I love the fact that I can look up all my favs from when i was a kid! I turned my son onto the REAL rap from my day, non of the crap thats on nowadays lol
dougie fresh was hot but didnt have that sound like the disco3...sorry it just didnt work...the fat boys beat box at the time...mooved the crowed with no doubt..
Tupac didnt live long but he still cut a track "aint nothin' like the old school" & mentioned La Di Da Di & more. If you dont know the song just play it on one window & hit up the lyrics on another, it's a good 101 on Old School for the New.
I wish I was born in the seventies so I could live thru the 80s and the 90s but I was sadly born in the 90s :( Now I have to live thru Nicki Minaj and Soulja Boy. Sucks doesn't it.
Talk about nostalgia, I wish I could jump in a time machine and go back to when I was 16. Every time I see a blast from the past like this, I get excited smiling from ear to ear! Damn those were the days! I had mad fun!
as far as were concerned hiphop wise these 2 were it.. If you dont know who Buff is please do yourself a favor and google the Fat Boys...Proof positive that good music never gets old!! Its funny people keep talking bout how they dont like certain artists Well then stop buying them!!! downloading them etc... there is so much other hiphop to listen to from (here comes the judge to Cold Crush to Spoony Gee to Crash Crew to Sugar Hill and everything before and after.Open up your EARS and hear!
This of course is one of the top 10 Greatest hiphop songs of all time!! if you put this on in a party it always ROCKS!! Everybody knows or should know of this song... a lot of folks are taking credit for this beat box thing(these days) but please be wise enough to know that Doug and Buff (from the Fat Boys) were the first to put it down on wax and are acknowledged as being the Originators(as far as hiphop is concerned).Yes im sure someone came before them in a Scatting sort of way but...

I'm 37 atm and i learned the lyrics to my oldest child tonight out of boredom and It amazed me that after 28 years I still remeber every single word and to prove I didnt kmake it up I brought him home and pulled it up on youtube. He was amazed we had music this good whern I was kid LOL!!!:)) This is surely the best of the best !!!!!
@PacDivDUi haha dude we're like fucking twins im 15 too and i cant stand listening to any of today's lame ass excuse for music. hip hops the only shit on rotation in my ipod.
@PacDivDUi im only 12. my fav rappers big daddy kane, big, pac, mobb deep, rakim, raekwon, slick rick(of coarse), gangstarr, run dmc, public enemy, krs, odb, jay-z (his old stuff i think is good), dre, d12's old stuff, Afrika Bambaataa, doug e, & others. some of those werent old school but come on im only 12 and those r at least all 90s rappers.
i aint tryin 2 pick a youtube fight wit any1 but when he started, look at children's story, 2 now, he gained a few pounds.wit that out of the way, he is 1 if not the most influential mcs ever.he is the greatest storytelling mc ever. if u ever think hiphop is dead(which it mayb) listen 2 this hot 80s song and any other mc ricky d song.
wow this really brings up memories, I remember where I was when I first heard this song, I was sooo young, so cute, so naive. I miss the 80's, so many memories, I tell ya NY City was "THE" place to be back then. I have so many great memories and pics of adventures and interesting people I met back then. Never a dull moment, every day was a new adventure, new people to meet and things to discover, drugs to try, clothes to buy...lol. I loved NY back then, now it's changed too much.
there flow means so much more than all dat new shit slick rick doug e de la soul grandmaster flash melle mel all dem cats man ant nuthin better wer hip hop came from for real born from funk
Yoyo peeps, the search ends here. im a new old school rapper with a dream of bringin back hip hop to its former state. if you're tired of today so called rap then check my profile for my song. You wont regret it
awesome awesom awesooomeee this one song influenced hip hop soo muchh but one thing... whuts up with the eye patchhhaha is that slick ricks thing or sumthing?
Gotta love this shit especially how much respect other MCs got for this classic track, look who's sampled parts of this song em, jay, coolio, big just to name a few... Classic!
Classic damn I miss the days!
