ROCK TELLS STORY ABOUT JAY-Z’S “THROW YOUR HANDS UP” RECORD!!! 

Producer have better stories than artist. We need more producers math.

Beans bodied that track something serious 🔥🔥🔥

Wow, the stories behind classic beats are something special. 👏🏿👏🏿 Thank you, Math Hoffa.

Love that song and beat. I had the DJ play "Do It Again" at my wedding when it was time for everyone to dance. When that beat start it's 🔥

Another little-known fact is that the song was sued for the hook as well due to legendary DC Go-Go band Rare Essence's - Overnight Scenario song.

I could listen to these stories forever! The part about being in the record store was like how could you not believe in divine intervention.

Hov has some serious quotes from that joint, it also put Beans on the map!

Man that Stop, chill record OMG! That song stayed on repeat in my car. Beans blessed that song. I’m about to go listen to it right now 😂😂😂

Im really appreciating the fact you have managers and a&rs in on these conversations...helps indi business men like me stay 10 toes down in this cut throat business...💪🏿❤Satule!

Just checked, it still knocks in 2022. Volume 3 was underrated.

Best podcast show I’ve seen. My expert opinion breathes and bleeds culture.

The most underrated comment the last 5 years in all interviews is " is that a 3 bar loop" ,I thought the same when I first heard it, it was a odd 3 evening out to 4 bars even I thought that was crazy

"Throw your hands up" is my favorite JayZ single of all time. Perfect cadence.. verses fire... not too pop. Video was memorable too..

This is one of those podcasts with no filler. Just classic stories and gems of knowledge. Love this shit. It’s really encapsulating the essence of hip hop. Barbershop is the perfect setting.

Appreciate Roc for admitting he was inspired by other legends!

That was s time when Hov's singles were tough & rugged; "put ya hands up", "Jigga my nigga" "money,cash,hoes","it's alright" etc

Yo Math, it's funny. I been a supporter of your show Wayyy before this interview. If you see me..It Barron Ricks..Im Diggin this somewhat recognition 20 years later, I'm humbled. It would be better to have gotten paid..However things turn out..THANK YOU MY BROTHER...FACTS1👊🏽💪🏽💪🏽

Classic 1999 banger! Can’t wait for the full episode to drop. This and The Drop makin waves ✊🏾✌🏾

wwwww🤯W !!!! I listened to "Award Tour" every goddamn night on my way to work with the bass crankin' !!!! SALUTE Q-Tip !!!

Everyone knows that song was originally a “GO-GO” song by the “RARE ESSENCE” band from Washington DC‼️‼️🙇🏾 The real question is…..why wasn’t any of that info talked about

Do it again came out when I was 12. I always wanted to write raps, but when I saw and heard Beans spit in the video That made me pick up the pen.🔥🔥🔥🔥

I love “MY EXPERT OPINION “ ❤️🙂✌️.

I always thought they sampled AZ for the "Throw Your Hands Up" lol. It sounds so much like him

Keep pushing the culture forward salute Philly in the building

iGR8LY appreciate these conversations and stories

Vol 3 was such an underrated album. Imo it's in his top 5 albums easily. Reasonable Doubt, TB, then The Black album , vol 3, and American Gangster can switch imo. Blueprint 3 is very underrated, and TB2 would have been better with like 5 less songs. Even The Dynasaty was a great album and Vol2. Dude has a crazy catalog. I would have 2 listen 2 Magna Carter again.

That explains why Diddy loves the remix no one gets payed.

Good interview.

Dope idea

- You know how Mack come through on the club tip- 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 Da beat Beens jigga amil

Premier gotta show up!

Just watched the cypress hill video.

HE MADE IT A HOT LINE, JAY MADE IT A HOT SONG........HAHAHAHAHAH😂😂😂😂😂😂

Put this interview in a library and make students of hip hop study it. Powerful stuff!

Thank you for a True Tunnel classic 🙏

That’s crazy I always thought that was Prodigy on the sample and always thought Jay Z did some slick money sh’t to clear it like he did Nas with Dead President. Definitely learnt something new today lol

I used to tease Pun and tell him Jay-Z verse was about him … He would get tight😂

Still on my play list yo!

Hoffa Gang

I always knew it was Call o da wild from throw your hands up remix sample, love how rockwilder confirmed it

How the fck you gon talk about MC's on our heel? When we just cop them thangs homie, the chromey wheels, both arms are chunky, the sleeves on chill, any given time a hundred g’s in your grill, don’t talk to me bout MCs got skills, he’s alright, but he's not real, Jay-Z's that deal, with Sigs in the field, love affair for war, hug, squeeze that steel, fck you got a flow, that's cool with me, you got a little dough, that's cool with me, you got a little cars, little jewelries, but none of y'all mufckas could fool with me, you know the wrist frostbit minus two degrees, bout as blue as the sea, the way I maneuver the V, hat cocked can't see his eyes, who could it be? With that new blue Yankee on, who but me? Niggas shipped two million, then I blew to three, then I skated to four, before I went on tour, I came back and it's plain, y'all niggas ain't rapping the same, fck the flow, y'all jacking our slang, I seen the same shit happen to Kane, three cuts in your eyebrows trying to wild out, the game is ours, we'll never foul out, y’all just better hope we gracefully bow out, throw yo hands up niggas, btches, busters, hustlas, fck that! (Throw the hands up) - Jay-Z

Barron Rick from The Call of the Wild!!! That's his Voice. Like KGB from The Movie Rounders said, "Pay that man his Money"!!! Classic.

5:17 math funny asf 📞😂

Got two copies of the vinyl, with 'so ghetto' on the flip! AW YE!

Do It Again is not a 3/4 measurement beat. You can easily count to 4 beats each bar 🤷🏻‍♂️. Btw, I always assume he sampled or replayed “Black Sabbath- Black Sabbath” song for the intro part.

I was a intern at Rocafella during this era

Math got it hands down.

I Love That Scene In The "Fade To Black" Documentary Where Jay Z Was Going Through Beats And You Can See A Young 9th Wonder Bomping His Head To The "What More Can I Say" Record... Which Was Derivative From The Tracey Lee Featuring Biggie "Put Ya Hands High".... Which Canibus Also Used On "How We Roll"....

If you was in DC back in da late 90s "throw your hands up" started with a snippet of this go go song made by backyard band and the hook off of hov's song sounded like "overnight scenario" by rare essence. Folks noticed the clear bite off our sound. So biting has been happening for years. Hope the industry treated our local folks wit some type of credit. If you know you know 💯

Barbershop 💈 talk…that’s what a barbershop 💈 supposed to be Shiiddd 😎😎😎

He’s talking about Baron Ricks from Call O Da Wild Soul Assassins all day!!

Damn that’s 2 lawsuits off that record, including the Rare Essence suit.

Aye math, I been fwu since I discovered battle rap... But I think I speak for alot of your fans when I say I want to see SMACK WHITE on the show man, it would go CRAZZZY

5:14 Math face LoL

*3 CUTS IN YA EYEBROW TRYNA WILD OUT!!!*

I always thought and swoar that was Raekwon, wow all these years.

So true

Man I'm so lost. I need someone to explain. Are they talking about the distorted part of "Do It Again" where it says throw they hands up???

I think he might got publishing cause the album was remix album. It was called throw your hands in the air . Original throw your set in the air

That was the track that fucked me up & made me pay attention to the roc & I been down with Hov since

🔥

Math wearing a Paper Planes hat now. And adding in more Jay Z content... pay(ola) attention!

Word

man is Swizz the intro innovator?? i never thought about that, thats crazy

Will u guys do a Uk barber shop visit Uk 🇬🇧 style 👍🏾

I thought that throw your hands up sample was AZ'S voice.....

Unpopular opinion but beans has the best verse🤷🏿‍♂️

👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏

Math at 5:17😂😂😂😂😂

Get Salam Remi in here! His interview with Vlad was a good start but he more to say.

Damn I always thought that was Prodigy on that. That's crazy dude getting paid at all.

Do it again... maino and Jim just remade it and to be honest it wasn't that bad but rocwilder had a run of some impressive joints he had one for Xzibit that was CRAZY!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Salute rocwilder and this podcast dope 💩math

Rock you forgot MC Eiht on the Cypress Hill

He took that from a GoGo song by rare essence overnight scenario out of DC

Rock a legend 💪

It’s funny how these stories and videos makes people forget all about to even like it and give it view credits

Damn same shit happened to me With City of Gods by Alicia Keys Fovio and Yeezy

I always though it was Prodigy’s voice being sampled

Gotta listen to see if he talked about Red and Meth!!

Jay Z went in too

Math bro u be looking different on Vlad tv lol .

Do It Again is Jay's greatest single because it's better than Money Cash Hoes + Nigga What Nigga Who? + Jigga My Nigga. That sound was the gold standard for Jay at that time + Rock understood the task. Jay was a perfect 10, Bean's caught a body but when Amil rapped her hook? Oh so disrespectful!

HOLD UP!!!! Rock did Resevoir dogs?!

Would the same thing apply if a verse was sampled? Like if someone was featured on a remix, spit a whole 16 bar verse, and later someone sampled parts of that feature verse. Does that featured artist get paid?

What’s more valuable royalties or publishing?

Jay Z just referenced this...Jay really keep his ear to the street...

Please get Large Professor in here too

👏👏👏👏👏

'U KNOW HOW I BE .. ALL HIGH IN VIP .. ROLLIN UP .. TO 👑B.I.G' ..

Portland, JAMAICA in The Building !!!!!!

I always thought it sounded like Raekwon

🏆🏆🏆🏆

I always thought it was AZ on that hook. 🤔😳

Man Math gon hit 1M subs easily by the end of the year..

at least 3 times a day I do it again while riding on god..........salute roc fa that.......

It was supposed be beanie sigel's first single

4:07 I don't think they were understanding dude's question. Take the original song out the convo. When he was saying "the original" he was referring to the remix that Rock sampled for the Jay-Z record, being it the origin of that particular sample. I'm sure it was still the same answer, though

I always thought the “Throw ya hands up” vocal was Raekwon.

☀️🍇🖤Woooooooooow!

Damn that do sound like P
