CLASSIC

💯

They just know rappers that have beats that sound all the exact same with fake hi-hats doing sixtuplets at the end of each measure and lyrics so shallow, it's almost the daring to be super basic (because they have nothing else) that appeals to these kids.

They will never know

Facts

Champagne Hec Painfully true

It's a good thing I was there to know the real.🔥

Big Facts!

Shut up kid of course they were dope🤷🏿‍♂️

Lol I'm far from being a kid. I will be 40 in less than 3 years.. But ok 😅😅😆

Dope as heaven

@@goddessteetee4987 they're underrated

100 percent facts. The lyrics we had back in the day were so much more meaningful than the shit they put out now.

Fa Sho

I love my kind. True leaders! Knowing that the young ones are listening and watching.

@@RobizGaming2024 lmaook y’all clearly never heard “punks jump up to get beat down” maybe look into the hateful homophobic shit these guys pushed in the 90s before saying how much more meaningful and less profane they are then modern hip hop. Y’all are just fake hip hop heads, want to hear an album that came out THIS YEAR with “meaningful lyrics”? Listen to the newest SADAT X ALBUM. Ever heard of him? Yeah I thought so, that’s weird it’s almost as if he doesn’t even agree with your own fake hip hop head takes, Bc he actually works with people in the modern underground, Bc he actually cares about hip hop. He cares about its evolution and growth, y’all literally like one tiny period Bc you have nostalgia for it. I’m in my 20s and love this album, I love all the classics from this time but I also love countless modern hip hop albums Bc I actually care about the genre. Y’all have to lie and pretend these old legends share your mindset when they don’t lmao they work with modern people and you would know that if you even actually cared about THEM. But you can’t even take the time to keep up with these people you use 😂 it’s so obvious y’all are just the modern pop rap fans but from the 90s, you were into music a couple years when you were a teenager and then grew out of it and didn’t care enough to actually keep up and be versed in the different sub genres. So now you’re one of these losers who goes on every video older then 20 years old saying how much better it is then now it’s embarrassing. Go actually try to find good modern hip hop it isn’t hard, that’s how I made a top FIFTY hip hop albums of this year and like two of them were “trap” or whatever y’all think modern hip hop is. And again if you’re gonna just choose to stay ignorant and go “no all those 50 albums are bad” again you just said Sadat X album is bad. You’re saying Cormega album is bad, as well as Nas, Rockness from Heltah Skeltah, Diamond D, AZ, RZA, DJ Scratch, Phife, Black Thought……..but please go on about what a “90s hip hop head” y’all are even though you just said all the artists I named make bad music

@@byHexted 😴😴 yawn.

Wanted to like his solo work but it was shallow and one dimensional. All punchlines. I think the group brought out the best of him.

Facts...91-92 was all Puba! I went and got my Hilfiger cuz of Puba he had the streets

@@bobbyf1741 you nailed it bro. And there was such anticipation when he went solo too that he couldn't quite live up to the hype for the reasons you mentioned... Plus his production was seriously lacking as well which didn't help

Facts... that 360 album was fire and still is

@@DHill-qk7hq that album actually kind of sucked

Hip-Hop & rap is struggling hard in these times...its barely lasting

Just keep playing and promoting the good music from 70s to 90s. There's also good music out there now But you have to do some digging. The majority of good artists today aren't signing with major labels. They self release or put out their stuff on small independent labels

It’s so saturated and has no substance. The men wanna be women and the women wanna be hard and thugs smh 🤦🏾‍♀️

​​@@Avenue77There's literally more positive and conscious rap music now than there ever has been. Literally 120,000 songs get dropped on Spotify weekly. You should just dig around. Unfortunately over saturation of music can make it harder to find stuff.

This one is still relevent for these kids Who get one hit and think they the next big thing..

There are a couple of artists ( e.g. Joey Badass and J. Cole) who still do. It's just not as popular as the crap they call rap nowadays.

True 2021 after next up JOE. 😆great vibes Unity -2 day. 46 th Rap is older then some of us.

Straight Fire Ese.........

*If you miss that old school sound then ✔ out my tracks...I specialize in making 90s-era hip hop...!!!👍🏾🎤🎧📀🎶💣🔥*

Lord jamar was my favorite laid back, but delivery was on point. .

@@carlosedwards1590 Yeah I love Lord Jamar’s verse too

Grand Puba I felt was down and earth and legendary! Lord Jamar was laid back but truth! Sadat X’s was talking about relationships with a girl that want material shit but let her know it’s not always about that 💯

puba killed it..🔥🔥🔥

@@Rjack5150 Word.

blazinghot99 so underrated one of the best his flow was amazing

Actually when this song came out people were still complaining that hip hop was dead.

Yes he did

Boo, i know like a boxer positive love 💕💕💕💕💕

A Mouth Full 💯💯 Lord knows that they really need to play this song today!! This generation will never understand the message of the song!

I’m glad you were exposed to this the nowaday we have to fight to be who we truly are….most people are moved materialisticly and forget…where they come from

Awesome comment 💯

Yeah you RITE ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

LOL 😂😆😂 I to well about these days my 3 sons would sing and rap with my wife while we played these songs driving around the city or you know " Road Trips". 🎈👏🤎🖤🤎👍👊👍💪💪👊🙏

Iou

Always Will Be!!!!

This song is nothing but the true 😊💜💜💜

Was dat sisco in dis video

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💯💯💯💯💯I love it

Hip Hop was never intended for record sales or pop chat songs

@@cperkins5050 thats why we don't hear it on the radio now. Lyrics lose to catchy beats, unfortunately.

It's the ones that we cannot name that took advantage of the peoples music and made it profitable (for them).

Klazzick.

They broke up because of money solo 360 grand puba etc !

UGK of Dixie Line yessss✌

UGK of Dixie Line yes they are

Indeed

Sometimes you wild, but I guess that's your style! Real bars.

@Olivia Rodrigues- Favorite line

Here for it sis 🙋🏽‍♀️

"1 single....don't make you a hit"

best music is full of meanings, messages, soul and creativity. and rarely it becomes mainstream. thank ALLAH for that. 'cause of that traxxs like this become timeless.

Mann Absolutely 💯 🙌🏽🙌🏽

Many

Every line

@@davidcasas1888 Too many...

Knowledge. Is the key

You better believe it

i agree strongly

Exactly! They nothing about good music especially good hiphop. That stuff out here today is straight garbage and they are out here killing each other. The dumbest shit I ever seen in my life.

Completely

How about people do research there are artist out there still doing decent music.

Amen.

😢😢😢😢

This shit today ain’t music it’s a play in the ignorance of black peoples by those in control. They purpose is to use black boys and girls to influence our children to be self destructive because they know we are the most easily influenced folk on the earth. If we see it on TV then it must be right especially if we who are the poorest gets paid for it. Real life keep them divided so we can conquer. The crazy thing is we gone spend the next 50 years in complete stupidity and ignorance trying to defend and ignorant ass nigga like a Gucci mane and all slow tongue dragging ass REAL niggas that the record companies can pay to do the record companies job. Hey go out their talk that nigga shit to the young. We’ll give you a Bentley and what else. Real shit by the Nubians and grand master flash was real and they had to stop it. In the white Boyd mind they using the radio to influence young black kids in the way of destruction. We not trying to uplift and enlighten you niggas

That's everyday life...

#facts!!!

@@leroymckenziejr.jnfenterpr567 so true my favorite line.

Books and books and rhyme concepts and hooks ....

@@musiclover-cn7tb I tella hold it down ma I givya high ranks , understand it won't be no hasle

Thats the truth

Elvin German Santiago -Agreed.....you almost don’t notice that he was barely rhyming his words. 😂

Sadat that first cat i remember back in the 90's that didnt even try to rhyme every bar. Some bars rhymed, some just didnt, sometimes he would wait 3 or 4 bars to connect a rhyme that links back to the first bar.

Isc23I - Some people still do what you said in the last part of your comment from time to time. You just can’t wait too long to connect the two rhyming words or it’ll sound crazy.

Elvin German Santiago Hell yea 😁😁

We are all taking the opportunity in 2024 to start independent again, this time stay independent and record real music in real studios and manufacture real CDs, Tapes, Vinyls and sell straight to real radio and real radio stations right here in America! Cheers to today and the greatness of what is on the way!

OK 🎤

These are 3 of the giants shoulders that these rappers of today stand on.

Dope still.

Many more HAPPY BIRTHDAYS TO YOU💪

Exactly. Nothing last forever. You may be up today and down tomorrow if not humble and not your true self

This was the REAL hiphop 😢

Arich67 true

That dude Page Kennedy from Hip-Hop DX need to listen to this track.

Definition of a classic

absolutely

Being humble pays

Missy G Agree im 14 music gettin little whack now

Tristan Darland agrees, im 6 but old rap is much better.

I know it has good message an aint bout drugs an women all the time

Tristan Darland soap on a rope, sorry for misbehaving papi

Refreshing that a young person can appreciate the ole school hip hop compared to what's out today!

Kush Gosier fire 🔥

my brother use to hang out with lord jamar

lord jamar was a great closure for this song

T Mac just keep the good music like this in rotation... we don't need the new.

I will

There is hood music out go research for it

Sam W who don’t?

Just discovering these tracks

honestly...it wasnt that big of a hit. It was played on Rap City a lot.

Jason J. It was their biggest hit...#54 on the Hot 100

Yes

Makes me cry sometimes because hip hop was in its golden years around this time. Nowadays, it’s all mumble rap with no substance.

We still have J Cole and K Lamar carrying the torch, but I agree, this music can't be duplicated , only evolve

A great #RapBrand instant klazzick

Antonio Giardiello Yes keep them feet on solid ground yes cause what goes comes down

Antonio Giardiello #TrueFacts

Word I’m bumping this RIGHT NOW but my boy don’t get it

This guy gets it

Get new homies

@ATHEIST You really need instructions on how to go link with likeminded people???

@ATHEIST DWL🤦🏿‍♂️hombre. If you have issues on leaving your mom's basement and talking to people in real life that's on you. It's not hard staying away from people who aren't into what you are. It's also not hard going out, let's say to a store since that's how you equate meeting new people(although there are laws against actually buying people), and MEETING other humans to converse in real life seeing if you have things in common. In real life.... and not just peacocking in KZfaq comments. How's that for comprehension?

💯💯😃

Most can't relate to real Hip-hop....I grow in the 80's and 90's....when the game was different....Long live Hip-hop...Jersey Man here

Me.

I am here to educate myself,lol for lord jamar hating eminem.grand puba is more lit to me,,,but i am more entertainon on rakim's spits thats my opinion,,,,1st time listening this no hate,peace

😎🤙

This song should also be played for all the instagram thots who be thirsty for likes DONT LET IT GO TO YOUR HEAD

nomar manuel-munoz Exactly them hoes would hate this song because they rapping about some real shit lol

‘24

Danya Real Talk word up

And that's word brother

Really? Lol. Listen to one for all. By these cats. X clan. Etc.

This is not close. You must not have an extensive appetite for real hip hop. . Lol. Wow.

I agree to disagree. Gotta learn how to make others happy and better. Leaving your mark behind

@Trenton Jenkins lord jamar is the weakest link lol

If you know.

to be honest, this is the only song i know of them. They were ok when I was a teen but didnt really vibe to them like i did No Limit, MA$E, Isley Bros. ect....

YEP

Woopty Doo.

@@jgoodner92 yeah. great you took the time to read my comment and respond to it 👍

​@@DoNColey456love her record 😁🙌🏾💪🏾

Salaam47 Cherub ! Thank you !! These Asiatic are lost and have no soul! ( I’m talking these so called rappers today) My favorite conscious rap group was the X-Clan! Because they know Moors from the Great Seal Association Of Moorish Affairs in NY. Back in early 90’s when me, my Father, His Grace, the Amire and other Moors from Camden and Philadelphia would go to Great Seal meetings. I would talk to Bro:. Mwabbah Bey. He knew some of them personally. ( I quickly put 2 + 2 together and realized. The X-Clan were rocking leather Fezzes with out tassels!!!!🤨 No wonder Professor X mentioned the Great Seal in his second solo album.) A’heil’aam and Salaam Cherub Moor, from the Magi Hypnotist in the East. ❤️🇲🇦🇺🇸✡️🙏🏿

Lord jamar has knowledge of the God knowledge of God makes part u part god because god is in you

This is Lord Jamar in 1998 before VladTV's platform even existed.This the same guy that discovered dead prez and got them signed to Loud Records in 1997.

Drinking that stay young elixir as well

Even weirder to see him not talking about EminEm

how old are you bro?

@@rasungod7257 nobody knows who that bum is

Chris Mendez Absolutely

Boom

@Amanze The Xzyro brah, this s--- is so dope. The crap they are listening to today doesn't compare with what those cats were doing in the 8ighties. If they think so, go bar for bar with any of the rappers of this day and the 8ighties so they can see - I do it all the time

Chris Mendez evolves

@Intellectual Savage lol say it again say it again and watch me put this beat in my ear lol

If you think about it the industry was stuck in the late 90’s for a while

@@urbab1 I wouldn't say that but that's your opinion

98 was wild

@Intellectual Savage exactly

One of the best to do it

Facts

Facts don’t let it go to ya head

DMX has an argument to pick. so does weezy haha

I bet if Sadat X blocked his nostrils, he wouldn't be able to make a single sound haha. DMX, good point. You can't mistake those gritty ass vocals either.

What argument? I keep seeing stuff about DMX can you explain?

We're talkin about MCs who's voice is the most recognizable. I said Sadat X and he said DMX. Have you heard either one of their voices? They both have very original voices that nobody else in hip hop can sound like.

Oh ok thanks. ;)

Jamar?
