Your father's head nod is how you properly zone out to a joint like this. I love how you react to classic hardcore '90s hip hop. So many great jewels, unmatched creativity and innovative beats, emceeing techniques and songwriting came from great crews and soloists. Your father explaining the essence of what made these songs great is excellent and necessary to pass on knowledge from one generation to another.

Everybody killed it. LLs verse give me the chills tho... Dope then, dope now.

Every time I hear this song I realize how underrated Keith Murray is to most people that aren’t hardcore hip hop heads. Keith beast moded this track🔥🔥

Keith Murray waz that dude.

Your father is right LL came at everyone who tried to battle him and won.

Crying tears of joy with a smile listening this. RIP P

The way Pops face screwed up when P started spitting! That's how real hip hop used to move niggaz! True talk about LL as well at the end.... lol @ LL & Drake being alike too

One of my favorite cyphers, everyone on this track killed it, Fat Joe was a beast on this one, Keith Murray's word play was incredible, Foxy Brown being the only female showed no slack in her verse, she ripped it. Prodigy's verse wasy favorite, God Rest his soul and LL brought the heat and called out some names lol #respect

Straight uncut dope!! The lyrical lexicon, the HNIC, Joey Crack, The Brown Mommy with the slanted eyes and the G.O.A.T, what more could you ask for!!! Pops is right too, everybody freestyled off of that beat including him!! Shout out to the Automatic Brain!!

YOOOOOOOOOO1111 POPS HEAD NOD WAS CRAZY!!!! YOU KNOW HE FROM MY ERA THATS HOW YOU ROCK TO AN EASTCOAST CLASSIC!! BIG UP!

LL is one of the greatest! Shout out pops & son.

So many verses left out of this version!

Your pops gots mad knowledge!!

🙌 #FoxyBrown is just the #Illest 🙌

"he ain't loss one battle" CAAAAAAPPPPP 😂😆😆

classic review and definitely dope seeing the pops and son comparing and supporting both generations and critical as well

PRODIGY KILLED THIS VERSE AND WAS AHEAD OF HIS TIME 🐐

another classic!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Teenage Foxy Brown held her own against these heavyweights

glad you are teaching your young one about the history. anybody that listens to hip hop today should go back and do the math on hip hop history so you can see why the 90s was the best era. this new stuff is trash

Your Dad is about to Break.his Neck! Great Hip Hop Reactions! I just subscribed! Keep up.the Great work!

1 of da Hardest Tracks ever.🔥🔥🔥

love you had your son react to this classic. One day I will do the same (still have a lot of time ... He is 2).

LL is among the GOATS!

Hop hop at it's best 🔥🔥🔥🔥

Fun Facts: LL's verse was a diss to 2pac. Read between the lines. And Prodigy and Keith Murray was beefin during this time. The last lines from Prodigy's verse was a shot at him

Every verse on this track is a smash.

Rest up P

You should sit him down and play self distruction that's a forgotten classic but the content is so needed today

"WHAT THE FUCK I THOUGHT I CONQUERED THE WORLD CRUSH MOE DEE HAMMER AND ICE T'S GIRL" No better entrance to a verse.

You and pops that head nod

love that keath murry enigma cd top 5

Plus this song was surrounded by alot of controversy due to the east and west beef

Kool Moe Dee also brought fire to LL.

Young boys right dont forget hey lover

Fat Joe and LL murdered their verses!!

LL and LOD killed it

The remix was better. I love it

LL made I need love because he seen the women loving MC shan left me lonely

P killed it

Only 15 and she killed it big ups foxy brown

You guys should do "Banned for TV" - Noreaga, Big Pun, cant remember who else but classic

React to The Firm “desperados”

Classic joint here love the remix pops is right everyone did a freestyle to this beat.... check out Mysonne ~ Funk Flex Freestyle

50 cent in 2002 made a similar rap record to this song of his own is called problem child 💪💪💪 Which is also crazy dope back then and dj kayslay invented that instrumental.

love FAT joe's verse and prodigys the most. but LL back then went everybody, cant forget KEITH MURRAY if didnt get locked up for B.s. one of best ever do it

People for get how mean LL was...

I got what the son was saying with the LL and Drake comparison sonically having a lot of melo melodic jawns for women in his discography. Throughout the 90s up to the 2000s that was his bread and butter. He'drop a frew street bangers here and there to show he still had bars and be grimy like this track and a 4321 for example. Drake isn't an LL legacy and skill wise but he is that type of popular rapper trying to straddle that line with who his core audience is while wanting to be named among the elite.

React to CyHi Da Prynce “Napoleon” and some of his freestyles 🔥🔥

Look at more female artists. Detroit 💖

Without Prodigy even trying, he killed that, on Joey, you might have to look behind you to see if dude behind you with them lyrics! Foxy was ahead of her time! Peace!

50 killed this beat #Problem #Child

you should reacts to Cormega-The Saga !

Fat Joe mad underrated man lol he used to go back and forth with Pun. Same with Kool G

Please react to Channel Live - Mad-izm. Dad has to know that one!!

Do this one "Big Pun feat. Fat Joe, Armageddon, Raekwon - Fire Water" you and your pops should check it well your dad should know about this joint

Should react to ll 4,3,2,1 👌

I would love to hear your thoughts about 'Eminem-Bully' and 'Eminem-Like Toy Soldiers'. New sub right here.

Love your channe!!!l I would be so ever grateful if I could see you react to Black Thought's freestyle on Flex 👀🙌🏽💯.

At 1:46 your father is very aware of those lyrics. This was the first mentioning of them in rap music.

RIP prodigy

Keith Murray bodies this

Hey bro do the BET Shady Cypher 2.0 by Eminem with his whole crew

I shot ya, Am I a snitch if I’m the one wielding the weapon But as soon as I took the deal for these skills, I started telling I shot ya, These execs pay me well for my confession Incriminate myself on these songs with no discretion I shot ya, Then hid the Shotti, in a blue Mazaradi, -you got bodied, by somebody, who embodies all the qualities, -of a Marcus Garvey copy, who only lobbies for the party, -celebrating with Bacardi, gentrified in them Ferraris I took this gig then got Fox on the line I hit up Miss Thing like its "clobbering time" For the simps that believe that we brick by design We been fantastic for (Fantastic Four), a decade with these rhymes You seen the signs, but when your cargo this dope, you’re always late Jammed up like 5pm traffic, move and wait (moving weight) In this case, we expose industry fakes with bad habits In these projects there ain’t no flowers for these addicts (attics) Dynamics, that keep these industry elites awake at night Having vision, is always better than eyesight When their glares are that tight, they remind you who’s the best Unaware, their stares (stairs) help you climb to your success I shot ya .

Scarface and Devin the dude. Only a mother could love you.

Plz react to Jack The Ripper-LL Cool J 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

This song came out of the so called beef between East coast and West coast.

This was a subliminal diss to Pac in 95. Which is why Pac came back at LL upon his release from prison in 96 with joints like Lil Homies OG, He vs She, etc.. Weird thing is that Fat Joe was helping to keep Pac safe in prison in 95 through his Puertan Rican connections. But Pac was defo beefing with Keith Murray, LL and Prodigy... even Foxy eventually.

Tupac didn't want nooo parts of LL on the lyrical tip

I thought y'all was gon speak on how this was a tupac diss.. Anyway💯💯💯

CLASSIC JOINT Right there check out EPMD KIM FT.REDMAN KEITH MURRAY YOUR POPS Knows What I am Talking About

For a second I thought pops forgot about Canibus

Man forgot Big Pun, and Fat Joe was in this video. I'm old school like your pops and it's cool your listening to the classics. It does not mean you can't enjoy your music of today, but you at least know the history of that Boom Bap sound that I miss. Not sure if you heard much Big Pun but that dude could flow better than most really IMOP one of the most technically complex emcees ever. Listen to Big Pun - The Dream Shatterer -- GL on your channel

Even though LL tried to take shots at Pac on here, it was still fire. But Pac's catalogue still tops LL's even though that's still one of the G.O.A.T.S in the game!!

yo i know ppl dont like to admit it, but CANIBUS won that battle2nd round tko one best disses EVER

I miss Keith Murray.

People say it's a 2Pac dis, I don't buy that even on a subliminal level. Obviously L's verse was a dis aimed for Kool Moe Dee, MC Hammer, & Ice T on both versions. This version he actually names them, the other is subliminal...

Y'all gotta check out big L

Although LL. COOL J Was the favorite in his battle with Kool Moe Dee, Moe Dee Dropped LL on the song Death Blow. Alot of people won't admit it but lyrically Moe Dee was BETTER, NOT Taking ANYTHING From LL he was just more POPULAR. I've been down with LL since Radio. New Subscriber and I look forward to seeing more of your reaction Rap Classic Videos. Ronnie BIGDOG from the Bay Area

I like the original I shot ya Over the remix

This type of shit makes you make tha screwface

RI-P

Big ups pops for checking your seed on his comment the LL could sing. I understand what he meant though, he simply misunderstood " I need love", a hip hop ballard but not in the sense of these commercialized singing artists (can't even call them rappers)… I concur with you that Canibus won the battle against L (that second round knock out was the truth) I will also add that Moe Dee's "Death Blow" also bagged LL while he was in his prime...…..LL was simply a young star in the game against an older Moe Dee, thus many gave it to L. But lyrically D bagged L in that song. Keep schooling your seed, if more dad's did this, perhaps hip hop can still be saved with a resistant movement by young cats like your son.....movement of accountability to good music/art and push back against rubbish on the air waves.

Why did they cut P’s Illuminati verse

Maaaan LL NEVER sang on a record...

LL sound like he was freestyling, I dont think he wrote that stuff down, just went for it, ijs! Peace!

Glad pops admitted canibus got wit LL a lot of old heads won’t

You forgot about...Moe Dee

Canibus ain’t give him a run. Canibus killed him, the only battle he lost

LL ended Canibus career.

Str8 up Pac diss if u listen to the lyrics even Keith strated it wit the keep ur head lyric

People may not know. I shot ya was aimed at 2 pac

Canibus took him out ...and KRS 1 could too...but otherwise yea Todd was dope

They cut hella verses

Naw because like l said cannibus used the same rhythm at the house of blues in the song he tried to dis cool j on

Did you know cj this song was about 2pac..diss

1:16 yo dads neck looks like its pumping lol

Nas blatantly wrote Foxy’s verse imo!

Too much ruthless. Sounds like dope. But this song is a wicked mistake, laugh at somebodys attempted murder is too much... 2Pac is the diamond that will forever SHINE. Prodigy RIP in any case I hope you're still shinin... best wishes. Unity & peace!

Canibus ate him up with Second Round Knock Out...other than that LL was the man...
