What's really sad is that T.R.O.Y. was only like 91st on the list of VH1's "beast ever" hip-hop songs.....LOL. Fuck you VH1 for that. T.R.O.Y. should be first. It is the best that hip-hop has ever offered so far in terms of musicality.

[HowieManzo23]

this video should be titled, "The Discussion of a Masterpiece", cause that's exactly what T.R.O.Y. is.

This is just a pure straight up testament to great music!!! And I gotta agree with what dude said about those three songs… you put those on and people go absolutely NUTS over!!!

One of the best hip hop videos ever shot!!! Great discussion about the tune. Knowing the backstory of a monumental tune is very important.

To be honest it's been a few years now and I am still mad as hell at VH1 for disrespecting Pete Rock and hip-hop like they did. T.R.O.Y. should be number 1, or at least in the top 5 of all time.

[13heavymetal]

@PancakeRecipes I know right! And the worst part is, those idiots put "Tha Block is Hot" ahead of TROY. Fucking idiots.

9th Wonder sounds like a really nice guy and he is intelligent. Pete's a legend

Soul music.. Music made with feeling and love.. Not made for attention or money.. The first time I heard this song my whole body got the chills.. Whenever people have protest and man tries to stop it.. Play this song and watch the people fuck cops up.. Any tyrant by that matter..
