Eiht always had connections on the East it seems like. I saw him in the Wutang Can it all be so simple video …and that was crazy because they didn’t do it like that back then

Met eiht back in 99 when he was promoting his hoo bangin debut. Really cool guy! We come strapped is one of the best west coast albums of all time. Geah

Preem's memory is astounding. I can't remember what happened last week let alone thirty some odd years ago.

Shout out to the living legend Premier for taking time to recognize the groundbreaking CMW on his platform and how Hip-hop artist supported one another on the way up in the early years. RIP to the wordsmith Guru🙏🏿

Maximum respect for bigging up Above The Law!

not just the disk, we always get good history and good stories

Ever since this dropped I've gone back and put CMW back into the playlist. As dope as NWA, Ice Cube, Snoop are, and I'm 46, I've heard it all from the west. I've definitely played more CMW/MC EIHT than anything. Much respect

Masta Ace is dope asf! His work with Marco Polo is classic!

He explained every detail/background/tertiary fact behind the making of this track except for the major detail that this was a DJ Quik diss and played a huge part in their beef. He seemed pretty careful not to mention Quik at all when talking about West coast artists. 🤔 Regardless, this is one of my favorite 12"s I own and I bought it just for the remixes. Salute my GOAT Premier, I hope he keeps posting these.

Music To Driveby, dope album bro! Same with Straight Checkn 'Em! All the Rapper's Eiht shout out's at the end of Music to Driveby are OG's! "Gang Starr, Naughty by Nature, Too $hort, Breed, Cube, Lynch Mob, Scarface, YoYo, 2 Pac" and "the new n*gga snoopy snoop dog" haha! So Dope

I own every Eiht on cd. My fav is when he rhymes ova Muggs beats. Nuff Raspect

“Yo, you aight homie? Yo, You aight? 🔫💥💥💥

Music to drive bye was and still is amazing

We need a Freddie Foxxx AKA Bumpy Knuckles So what’s up! 💯👍🏻🔥 so many gems 💎!!!

I wish there would be hundred more episodes of these... Really the greatest thing for a hiphop head on youtube. hands down.

He mixed Def Wish II and the original Def Wish in the first one that he posted yesterday. He forgot to mention "Music To Driveby" and he said that Def Wish II was a single for "Straight Checkin Em". He corrected himself and posted this a second time. Pointing this out for everyone who's confused

Premo and Eiht been chopping it up for awhile now. 💯

Much respect, Primo. It was a pleasure to meet you then. I'm not sure if you remember but after I met you on the road with 8, you actually shopped the demo of my group with MC Jolly Joe. -Masta Ric Roc

I believe everything except that part about Guru asking MC 8 why he had 2 beepers. Guru was too cool for that. 😎

That Def Wish Remix Is Tight, Never Heard It, Or Even Knew It Existed. 👍 👍 👍

Jeah.. You are welcome, DJ PREMIER. You are my favorite DJ/PRODUCER since 1989.

That One Time Gaffled Em Up u can hear Gang Starr Love Sick R.I.P Guru coming in from Florida

What an epic story by the Legendary DJ Premier!! Long live Preemo!!👍🏾👍🏾

Shouts out for mentioning my city good video 💯💯💯 #anaheim

damn rip Shock G

Still needing that INVINCIBLE - CNN so wassup? That beat is so hard

Music to Driveby is one of my favorite albums

I always make sure to thumbs up before the video starts so I dont forget at the end because I’m so hypnotized. Preemo made the soundtrack of my teens in Brooklyn still and forever the home of the baddest.

Don’t stop making these plz

RIP KING GURU RESPECT D DJ SALUUUUTE! GEEEEAAAAH #REALHIPHOP

Appreciate the show. Appreciate all the back stories. Didn’t know u did that beat. Born & raised in South LA. Was 14yrs young when that Def Wish hit by CMW and still learning new things bout that record

CMW-STRAIGHT CHECK’EM my favorite 💿.🤘🏽👌🏽 🚩.

Love that Primo takes you so far into history, Not only with music but individuals but also with Equipment🙏🏻 Thank you for sharing all this info! Love Primo

D@mn, you broke it tf down. But Straight CheckN Em was also on Orpheus/Epic. Also, you forgot to mention Ant, their original DJ. Who was white. Ant couldnt scratch. So DJ Mike Tee replaced Ant. Ant was on the album cover of It's A Compton Thang.

Let's go Preemo!

Classic.Salute to Premier and Eiht 💪

Bringin' so many gold memories big bro!! CH'YEAH

Great videos Primo! Thank you for info behind the scene and history too! Please just keep on rolling with this shit...G G G GEEEEEAAAAA🖖🏿!!! Peace from Belgrade, Serbia ✌🏻!

I've always loved this track. It's at the end of a banger album and you can totally feel "cool out" vibe of that session.

Another amazing episode! Been making a playlist with all songs so far unfortunately 3 songs aren’t on iTunes. ✌🏽❤️

second time post: still dope!

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 I love hip hop history. The first few bars was dissing DJ Quik. Remember, the 950 can read the 900 😬🍾

Good shit Premo. I remember when you called me to ask the name of the Quincy sample on the original. You ended up using it on the next Gangstar album. Keep showing the history!

Great upload such a blast! RiP to Guru 90's where 90's Pree 💥💎💎💎*5:07👌wow

MASTER☮︎PEACE

91’ the year I was born. Thanks premo you changed my life. GANGSTARR FOREVER

His Album " Killin Season " 96 was one of my Favorites

Great stories. Been bumpin that "Double That" featuring Kurupt.

Wicked episode as always! 40 episodes deep.... crazy! Always look forward to the next one! Don't stop! Thank you Preemo 👍🏽👊🏽

Didn't I watch it like yesterday?

My favorite version

Still got this joint on my ipod nano, banging ass track preem🔥🔥

Awesome episode once again. Can we get an episode for So Ghetto?

Love he called mc eiht to get his facts straight first more people need to do that 💪💪

“what im here 4” would be a dope one to see

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Classics.. Personally I like the "We come strapped and Death threats " album the most

Nice to see MC Eight & CMW get their highlight on this channel! Always loved those dudes

Would love to see you cover rock stars with non phixion, love the series and salute to the 💾

Wowww. That is how you break it down

🌫️ Thank you

Never knew this remix was a Preem production. Been down with CMW since the Blue Tape.

Then, the beat was changed into a sample of Quincy Jones’s Snow Creatures & intro off of... Scarface the movie.

CMW is the shit

I always loved this remix & felt it never got the props that it deserved (oh well Premo got plenty accolades from everything else he produced)

Salute to the 💾!

Can you do the format by AZ next? That beat is hard!!!

this videos are great it was recommended to me before but I thought it's one of them shows when people just get together and talk, if I knew it is just dj premier talking the whole time I would watch all of them long time ago it's weird how every artist I love are connected like this and it's from the start of it too

PLEASE DO “MOMENT OF TRUTH” I LOVE THAT SONG

I posted on the previous video that Chill dropped a hard joint called “Elephant” ft Eiht a few months ago…check that out, but I also just realized I haven’t heard from CMWs DJ Mike T in a minute. That said I never knew Primo had done this and I was big fan of both Primo and CMW

My favorite MC Eight song has to be in too deep with scarface..whewwww!!that beat was sick yo..

I fucking love this shit shout out from uk manchester premo much love

Geah

DJ PREMIER, You are dope! I'm from NORTHERN CALIFORNIA and my older cousin put me onto hip hop and rap in the 70s. * SUGAR HILL GANG * GRAND MASTER FLASH AND THE FURIOUS 5. * ETC... But I've got to tell you! GANGSTAR WILL ALWAYS GO HARD AND NEVER DIE! You are a dope DJ! I'm so delighted, pleased,... to hear and see you in this video. I don't recall ever seeing you do this much talking. And the content in this video! DOPE!!! What about the BAY AREA, SACRAMENTO,??? Can you do a video like this but with bay area artists you and GURU worked with? You're a good story teller! STAY STRONG AND KEEP IT GOING FAM!!!

Can you do Nas’ “I Gave You Power”. That is the song that I really don’t hear any scratches from, which is something that I normally hear in a DJ premier produce track, so I would really like to see how the record got made and what it meant to Nas and DJ Premier.

1:00 Damn that's a badass Cutlass 🙌

Which way iz west is one of the best hip hop releases of the last decade or so for sure. Every track is great

Don Lewis created the LEO which midi is based on ten years before any one. And he helped create the 808 Drum machine.

Analog still sounds crazy clear, rich and better to me. Maybe, it is because I love so many of those old rap songs.

Primo is hip-hop, 💯
