Nice reaction! This is a certified classic track. Some more songs on this type of vibe are: The Roots- Silent Treatment Common Sense- I Used To Love H.E.R. A Tribe Called Quest- Electric Relaxation
Definitely good to see the younger generation listening to this, I miss this era so much!!!!!!! If you like this you should check out "Souls of Mischief"
There was a lot of really cool hip hop groups at the time Pharcyde came out--East Coast and West Coast! 🥰💝 They had a song from the same albim--their debut song-- "Your Mama"! The video is hilarious!
Love the Pharcyde, love to see your reaction! I’d love to see your reaction to their song Pack the Pipe. I see no one talking about that song but I think the lyrics are extremeeeeely problematic. I’d love to know what you think
They were actually still in high school Locke High watts,California same school Tyrese attended. He was in their renowned band program when he did the coke commercial.
Correction: not the hook but Phat Lip's portion of the verse is what Joe used as well as sampling some of the melody from Pharcyde, not the chorus (hook) as I stated earlier
I just peeped you for the 2nd time. You look so much like my cuz it's crazy. Anyway you're on point 💕 you're reaction. It's a old jazz type song he got that (my dear) from.
THE end... but POSSIBLY the masterpiece of rhe entire Native Tongues influence on Hip-Hop. And I miss this damned style more every time some douchebag in Hip-Hop puts out an album. This is a song about NOT getting the girl. How many artists nowadays would put themselves in a position of vulnerability today?! ZERO. 💯
Peace! Excellent timeless joint; but it’s not the masterpiece of NT influence on hip-hop.. De La & Tribe, Jungle Brothers, etc had too many dope cuts..
That melody in the 4th verse that you said you knew was sampled in another song, that might have been 'Through the Eyes of a G' by Action Bronson! (Around 2:20 into the song)
I’m enjoying your reactions. Binary Star- Honest Expression. AZ- Rather Unique. The Roots- Respond/React. Naughty By Nature- Feel Me Flow. Sporty Thievz- Cheapskates. The Mighty Mos Def- Brooklyn. The Lost Boys- Renee. Tha Liks- Daaam! Onyx- The Worst.
