Slick Rick - I Shouldn't Have Done It (Official Music Video) 

his rap style and flow was legendary

Story: Sad Beat: Happy

slick ricks accent was so cool

Slick Rick had no qualms about appearing introspective and emotionally vulnerable on his raps, and he could tell a story along with the song, he didn't need to act all tough on his raps and front like a lot of rappers do. He saved his toughness for real life. The dude did jail time for attempted murder, he was no pansy but he didn't need to act like a tough guy, he was brave.

Slick Rick still the ruler!

30+ years later and this song still slaps.

Slick Rick is a GOAT! One of the most familiar and recognizable voices in HipHop, in my opinion...Yo Rick, Release some new fire shit...Gen X got your back!

The ease of the bars coming out of his mouth is stupid 🥶

This man is a legend. Just learned of him and I'm hooked.

The best thing about Vintage Slick Rick man.... I get older and it stays the same age....

It's 2023 and I still listen to 90s hip-hop🙏❤

i like how this is an upbeat fun song about cheating on your girlfriend and coming home to her having committed suicide.

"My girlfriend committed suicide by overdosing because i cheated on her" The people in the video:🕺💃

Saw this man live last week in London. He's the real ruler

Slick actually stood out from the rest. Lots of rappers had bars, but no one at the time had such a smooth flow... The only one who probably came close was Special Ed.

The best storyteller and there's always a lesson to learn

1:24 I think her earing fell, but it was cute when she just smiled and kept dancing 😁

Slick Rick's style is still the finest and most longstanding in hiphop. Of all the people doing clothing and fashion, he should have ventured into it.

where the FUCK DID THIS MUSIC GO?

OG SLICK RICK#1

Club bumper back in the summer of '91, one of the greatest, but not better than '94. Damn I miss those days! !

The style is ridiculous noone can imitate it. The gr8 storyteller

This hook is phenomenal

I'm feeling sad and lonely because they dont music like this anymore

this is so 90s, i can't even....

i remember reading about how he did this album and the one after, and a slew of videos, in a total of 21 days while he was out on bail waiting to be sentenced; they were good songs; just a little quicker than his usual rhyme speed but the lyrics were great...slick rick,forever the ruler

Classic. Playlist bound again

Good to see some mellenials appreciate True Hip-Hop

I wish I was 15 in the 90s instead 😯

I love this song, it's so cheery but the deeper meaning is very sad.

When you listen to what he's saying, you know the story is devastating.

Wow.. These days when we use to get jiggy to every song we heard on the radio with some hard beats damn these were the days, i miss you 90's

"And her first was this fly guy, made me very jealous." Oh my, he sounds so Brit the say he delivers that line and I love it! I can't tell you how many times I rewound it back to that part.

This song is so funky but so dark in lyrical aspect

Slick is the definition of true flow

Slick rick the flashiest of all the ricks

THIS IS TIGHT!!!! SICK BEATS.......SICK FLOWS!!!! I CAN'T GET ENOUGH OF SLICK RICK!!!!

timeless. just as good as the day it was released

Who else here in 2024!???

ok so I basically stepped back into my younger years. This is the King of story telling. A lost art in Rap.

I wish new rappers had vocabulary and word play like this

I miss being young

Only now, 30 years later, I notice Slick Rick was VOGUEING.

I honestly have to say, there's so many new shit rappers coming out and this man only has almost 200k subs, Slick Rick is one of the best and still bumping till this day💯👑💯🥂

I still bump that shit like it came out yesterday. The Great adventure of Slick Rick is a Classic!!

Classic joint 🔥🔥🔥🔥

His style is so unique. Living Legend!

Thid guys flow is insane

One of my favorites from slick im a 81 baby was like 9 or 10 yrs old at da time dis been da dance song i was da best dancer at school they clear da floor for me i know how to do every stylish dance they had out wit excellence had da kid n play high top just like kid.

This is still fucking true as fuck to this DAY! If you’re insecure about your Mrs all the time your nightmares will sometimes become a reality. Communication is the key fr holding grudges will lead to shit like this it’s sad how shit like this has only gotten worse as time went on :/

Dang how much im missing the 90s !!!

Slick rick a black british american rapper....no doubt hes feeling savage. He IS the OG!

This sound needs to come back.

Slick is the man, iv heard some of his beats but not heard enough, slept on this dude for too long

slick rick, flyest dresser and best style in hip hop ever.

Yes, thank you for that. I had no idea that this was the case. The difference is that tribal culture varies for peoples' cultures also. It's one of the reasons that gangs operate differently.

Brings me back to the good old days.

This music video is underrated

The GOAT!!!! BACK ON DA DAYS WHEN IT WAS NOT ABOUT LAMBORGHINIS $$$ AND FLASHING SHIT!!! REAL SHIT YO!!!

Today is the 26th anniversary of this single dropping. Still dope

I forget Slick Rick is my favorite EMCEE until I'm listening to Slick Rick again

lol remember those videos back in the days with someone popping up from the side.

On this one..Eric Kuenhle be bossing..Stand up guy..🤺

He was such a unique rapper and i always thought he was sexy

That jail time interrupted one of the greatest story rhyme writers ever.

Living a gangsters life back in the day, I never imagined still being alive watching this on RU-vid in 2020... Thank God I woke up. 🙏

Slick Rick is still Money!

Slick lays it down on this track! Who's slicker than the "Ruler"? Nobody!

Such a classic song and style.

Flow is mad. 🔥

The Ruler!!!!

Slick had all the sauce

One of my favorite rick joints!!♡♡ ..that fly guy though! LOL!!

2019. ..2020..2021. there's only one ruler..and he's slick . Don't leave home without the Kangol, cheers!

Slick rick isn't always innocent and happy, you obviously haven't listened to very much slick rick.

In Living Color brought me here from an episode from 1991. This came out when I was only 2, man I wish I was old enough to get down to this in a club.

She dropped some of her bling @ 1:27

When he says "Picky" it sound so smooth wtf

REAL HIP HOP! LIL WAYNE CAN'T TOUCH THIS!

Platinum 1991 Old School Hip Hop Evergreen.

"Till I found out ways to make myself look better" (Money glued to his clothes)

I’m only 18 but damn i bet the 90s was some crazy times

I miss the 80s hip hop music

His out fit so drippy omg

slick Rick killed this still rocks

millionaire by kelis, the "im feeling sad" part is sampled in the kelis song

this is original rap hip-hop

TOP FIVE RAPPER, GOD FIRST Y'ALL

I remember this being played on In Living Color with the Fly Girls dancing as they went to commercial

2:49 Slick Rick lethargically voguing makes me smirk. Sad song though...

Rick the RULER.

When he was an infant a piece of glass cut his right eye and because of that, he became blind in his right eye. I used to think it was just a style thing, but he actually does need the eyepatch.

that white chick moves were smooth...i love it..slick's my number 2 artist btw

It's 2020 and this is still my all time favorite song. Maybe because it's was the story of my life..

Nas & Slick Rick My favorite rapper of all time

America doesn't even have bad ghettos compared to real places that are trash heaps. Haiti, Jamaica, Brazil, etc. Even the roughest ghettos in America are nothing compared to how some people in the world have to live. Homeless in America have it good.

458 people don’t know hip hop

That Woman In The Red Dress Fine As Hell

I LOVE SLICK RICK !!!!!!!!

Upset and upsetter!🎉
