“Hammer wore those pants because nobody could beat him up for wearing them!”-My dad

I absolutely *LOVE* characters like that

So he's Plastic Man

Bro Obito irl 😂

Plastic man IRL

Ikr, Search aint do shit til the end 😂😂😂😂

aint no stray when you get pointed out and in stead of saying it wasnt me u go We aint scared o......

Serch traumatized for life. He had war flashbacks during the Vlad interview.

@@Big-ShadyHis man’s talked shit about his mom. He likely targeted search because that’s one of that guys mans. Didn’t pick the black dude likely because of the climate of the US at the time, ofc it’s past the 60s but even today people from that time are alive. MC Hammer would’ve looked absolutely crazy in the black community going after the only black guy in a group at the time then… unless he says something ofc.

​@@iShredStreets But he stepped foot and left California tho.

old fact that's commonly ignored

Especially if they enjoy zuppa inglese.

incorrect, the dude that said it ain’t even get the bounty😭

Too bad that was Zev Love X in the picture with Search and Pete and not the later DOOM. Could of told him, "Don't talk about my moms, yo."

@@bklyncrookrespecccc

Yep, a studio activist 😂😂

He’s from Oakland lol.

The original Gus Fring

yh

Plenty in the set are hard working, family/community minded folks just don’t disrespect and everything will be fine.

Snow is a gangster from a family of Canadian gangsters. Do not mess with the goofy ones.

Wdym bro Kendrick talks about gangster life a lot haven't you heard his albums??

@@Isntme6336he doesn’t talk about it in a good way tho,

All very true non of these so called allegations have been confirmed by Hammer who actually answers questions daily for last 14 years on Twitter

@@Isntme6336they meant more like glorifying being in a gang

😮😳😳 bounty database ?

RIP

Laptops didnt exist

The internet didnt either.. Relatively speaking

​@@mr.mcgibblets7048 laptops existed since the 80s

And when he wanted out of Death Row Records, Suge was happy to oblige.

@@sawtooth808now THAT is saying something

OH WAIT I DIDNT KNOW HE WAS DEF ROW….now it all makes much more….scarier sense

So that means that Suge Knight didn't treat him like he did many of the other rappers?

​@@sereneamani1713 Mc Hammer actually got his cash..

Huh?

What 3 Stacks said?

I need to hear this story. “You see, Andre 3000 had a problem…”

​@UliTroyo😂😂

Remember that!!?? 🤣🤣

Yeah that’s some mafioso, Don Corleone type ish right there😂😂😂😂

⁠@@romello4913"Chase these mfs around Cali and I'll give you Fifty G's" 😭😭

he is not he is dork and a gimp

yeah ngl i did hear, but i didnt realise it was like. i didnt know the full story lmao

Dangerous sure, but also very fragile that that's how he responds to a diss track

Some might say too legit, perhaps too legit to quit.

@@goodnplenty1873😂😂😂👍🏼

​@@goodnplenty1873🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂

​@@goodnplenty1873 😂😂😂

​@@goodnplenty1873- Good show!! Very well played.

'that dude' meaning fragile AF and easy to trigger

​@@smithynoir9980 Its the zenith problem, the higher you are the more enemies you tend to have, the more enemies you have the harsher you have to handle any slight. Being soft on one person means everyone can now do the same thing they did, otherwise your reputation takes a hit. Its even true in Copyright law, if you dont religiously defend against any copyright infringement you discover, the court says "guess you dont really care", and revokes your copyright.

​​@@smithynoir9980 Say it to his face 😂

​@GrimlyYours well, he's in his mid 60s at this point. Not really sure who's gonna be intimidated of him at this point. Sure he could throw money at it but that doesn't make him scary. Jeff bezos could throw more money af making you go away then a one hit wonder from the 80s. No one is afraid of Jeff bezos.

He used to perform for kids at Hardly Strictly Bluegrass every year

I didn't even know he was like that until like 5 years ago but he definitely is and we proud of him to this day

I never knew Hammer went this hard. I talked to him a few times about technology and he’s extremely knowledgeable about really deep esoteric topics like machine learning and VR. I’m glad I never got on his bad side and all we did was talking about computers 😅

Even $hort dawg was like "yeah, that's the hammer man", they had a rivalry but no hate. 😂

By the time he was wearing those pants, he lived in the Fremont hills. Regardless, Hammer and his brother are legit street dudes.

Please hammer don’t hurt em 😭👋🏾

​@@Trid3ntcommunitynow we know why they said it. It wasn't cause he was out there stunting on them, it was cause he was stomping on them.😮

No, _seriously_ Hammer, Do Not Hurt them

😂

​@@sawtooth808😂😂😂

He told us in ‘This Is What We Do’. Nobody listened.

@@FaithFallRepentGraceRepeat Hammer: “Can’t Touch This” Seconds later: A battalion of Crips show up beside him 😮😮😬😨🫣

And some of that Witney money helps

It wasn’t even just the Crips…Hammer was loved by a lot of dudes in Oakland…he grew up with the guys who ran everything and he was their lil bro who made good…and he put a lot of them on and fed a lot of their families!

Funny Story: In addition to the Samoans, Hammer was another person that put the fear of God into him. When Hammer wanted out of his Deathrow Records contract, Suge’s attitude was, “Okay…you’re released, anything else you would like ? _Anything_ ? “ Hammer might as well have “Sosé” after his name.

His fan’s.

Yeah, but we didn't know he was from Oakland Oakland.

Only clowns come outta there have green hair and purple suits.

@@raymeester7883 uhh, Hammer was pretty upfront about being from Oakland, (Oaktown ring any bells ?….that would be Oakland)

The pants threw us off. Cut us some slack it was 1991 and people didn't wear gold lamé like that back then 😂 It was a gay club outfit. (Hammer if you see this, I don't mean it. I've changed my mind since then!)

​@@raymeester7883right😂😂😂

Turns out Hammer Time is like when a videogame level starts running out of time and everything gets intense and difficult. ...Except, it's not Hammer that's running out of time in this analogy.

Lets be honest it’s the same thing anyways.

When you pick a race in Warcraft

It’s funny since that guy was DOOM

Day guy aaAAAaahh fighter of the Night guy

​@@johnrockyryanchampion of the sun

He still rich. He fours like a mug

He wouldn't even have to put 50k on someone. He says someone needs to go, they're gone simply as a courtesy. Dudes legit

@@CGoody564 Hammer also walked away from Death Row Records and Suge Knight…unscathed. In addition to The Boo Yah Tribe (You do not mess with Samoans) Suge was also afraid of Hammer

😂😂😂😂

He was a ball boy for Hank"Hammer" Aaron Oakland As

@@kennethpratt5229 it was a joke loool tf

@@JackTheStrippadon’t back pedal when ur joke makes no sense lool tf

@@jadenmehta It made sense to over 100 people. commenting in here like you're the joke police. tf you gonna do about the comment? nothing. go live your life. As if i gotta explain a joke to a moron

​@@jadenmehtaNah, the joke did make sense regardless of the actual reason he got the name. I'd assumed that his off stage nickname was an indicator that he was willing to beat you down, whereas his stage name had a story you could tell the press.

I believe that he was always like that behind the scenes

😅😅😅

I remember this! 😂

Yeah, it's a good idea not to mess with weak bitches that take offence easily like MC Hammer does

That album actually is good as fuck, it’s just he couldn’t make his actual cred come across to the public since they still had (and have) the perception he’s soft as hell and kid stuff, and for a while he liked that (sold a shit ton of records and merch) until it was too late

That's not why, it's more because he got overexposed that was about the time that he got his animated series and at that time there was a cap of sorts on how commercial you could be and still have any credibility. If you layer that on top of the fact that he's already gained a following by being a bit more upbeat and positive and that's just not going to work. Most of what this video talks about is the result of just being in, very, very good with a community that's used to having to take matters into their own hands. It wouldn't surprise me if somebody else took offense to people screwing with him and he just played along to not rile anybody up.

@@SmallSpoonBrigade that part !!!

Black culture. Idolize the worst most fragile person you can find. Blame everyone else when called on your bullshit.

He didn't just send some kid with no guidance 😂 he had debatably the largest street gang in the city on these dudes with a 50k Bounty. To the point where everyone in the know innl the city knew how dangerous the situation is. I genuinely don't understand how you can be this disingenuous when we have seen the weight these situations can carry.. ask Tupac

One of Oaklands finest!

Side to side 😂 you ain't goin NOWHERE man

The only thing you need to take away from this story is that, YOU didn't know.

Eazy E was a real crip he even had respect from the Mexican gangs and suge was smart enough to not touch him because alot of crip sets had his back

NWA some real gangsters too

Thats why my boy had the gold toilet he was bout the shit

​@DrakoGo2DaMoon not rly.. Dr Dre and ice cube mever did much before they started rapping about that stuff.. ice cube had good grades, ready to head off to college and Dr Dre was just a dj/dancer. Neither was really in the streets like how easy e was, but they were kind of around it and knew how to rap about it

To be fair to Third Base, Hammer started it. After that it’s their (mostly Search’s) fault for not stopping after the fifth near miss (never mind the first 4). Tbh I would’ve asked for a different vehicle to Search and made it known on the station beforehand.

And he was a batboy/ballboy for the Oakland A’s. His original dream was to become a baseball player.

@@HummaKavula-DontVoteForStupid Which, as legend goes is where the name 'Hammer" comes from.

@@karlarrington5362 supposedly Reggie Jackson thought the 13 year old Stanley Burrell looked like Hank Aaron thus the nickname Hammer

@@HummaKavula-DontVoteForStupid That's the story I heard.

😂😂😂😂

💯😅😅

MC Hammer sees people that test him turn into nails the same way a starving person sees people turn into cheeseburgers in cartoons.

@@FullMoonOctoberyou are too funny for this 😂😂😂

😂😂

ALL CAPS WHEN YOU SPELT THE MANS' NAME.

Yeah, but the DJ was the Black dude in the group, not doom.

@@whxxp2x it is DOOM, but Victor Vaughan

@@crispyears*Zev Love X

The third person (the DJ) would be Daddy Rich, aka Richie Rich. MF Doom back in the day did rap with 3rd Base as Zev Love X in the early 90’s

Well, it's California. Bunch of illegals, fairies and welfare. I'm sure he wished he could forget he's from Oakland.

Soft hands

Maybe that’s why he started wearing the mask!!!!!! 😮

That's cap the dude is rich lawson not daniel dumile

​@@draic890nah that pic has DOOM in it when he was Z Love X of KMD. The actual 3rd member of 3rd Base isn't there.

@@marcusrochford my bad

That not Dumile. That Rich.

He was also a boxer, and definitely could, but too many of his people were happy to do it for him. Dude was more like a cult leader to the people around him than a friend.

@@mikefelty2625 From how this story sounds, MC Hammer can't fight on his own. Weak mean need backup.

@@mikefelty2625 Any boxer that sends others to fight his battles isn't a boxer, he's a bitch.

These stories do make it seem that way, but that doesn't mean he can't fight for himself. Only that in these situations there were a bunch of guys that stepped in before someone could even get to him. As with anyone that has faithful followers, there will be people that take up for that person whether told to or not. These days you see it more with people going after one another online, but in the 90s, it was done in person.

Realest in the tent cities fr. Check out the LA hulk. Realest of the real. 😂
