@@BarrettWallacesec7 my parents played their music all the time and I'd be singing older music. Of course the rap music was different. I love music. I never thought what my parents/grand parents were listening to was old or corny. I listened to the words and enjoyed it.
I ain't gonna lie...I'm 55 now with four sons of my own, who I grew up with music. They converted to this BULLSHIT that's out right now, but I honestly am tearing up right now, bc I became a man, who i am today bc of this music, and it's just a fuckin shame that these days are done and dusted. This music is relevant for LIFE! LOVE YOU ALL AND THANKS FOR BEING A PART OF THE BEST YEARS OF MY LIFE!
@@anthonygman1107 I mean in 1994 at 31 years old what was the vibe like for you in hip hop. For me as a kid in 94 this video was scary for me in the winter time. My eyes would get so big when this video would come on. The seen where the sister ran to the murder set and the cops tried to hold her back.
im 22 and i bump all this, theres hope for your sons trust me you just gotta play some songs they can relate to, i guarantee you they will slowly stop bumping the trash that comes out today.
I've listened this song at least 2,000 times in my lifetime and this shit never gets old. This song is so well written and composed. The deliveries, beat, all the way down to the chemistry and image of Tek and Steel was so tight. For me, BCC rivaled the Wu back in the days in NY.
I wish I was 16 again. I remember taking the D train from the bronx to coney island, smoking a fat blunt with my homies while blasting this and wu tang on my boom box. Word those were the days....
Robert Fernandez why would someone Leave NY? NY is the number 1 city people are leaving. This place is unrecognizable, but I guess it’s only a matter of time that a Democrat run city goes to the shits. insanely high rents, stupid high taxes. Opening up shelters in decent neighborhoods. Releasing criminals short of murder.. The list goes on and on and on However I’m still in this cesspool.
Wats so crazy how these new age " bipitty boppers" say Nas ain't shyt. But will bump some 21 england savage"... I tried check his stuff out the other day , and absolutely genuinely thought everything from his was st8 trash
@@ayten3617 I feel the same way. But that's because we are from the 90's. Our ears are used to the pure raw sound of hip hop whereas it's the opposite for these new generation mf's 😂. Peace n luv ✌️
+Dan “anth05038” Anth Yeah man, I was an early teen at the time so it was like watching older brothers take over the scene. The rise of Brooklyn was an amazing thing to witness for this Harlem kid. West coast was dominating and it was the ashes of the Queens/ Bronx rivalry(BDP Vs. Juice Crew). Between BCC, Primo taking is production to another level, Crooklyn Dodgers and the explosion of the Wu, it changed the sound of the hallways in High School as well as the streets.
@@reshaunaseegars9436of course. But but than artist had no control over their royalties. Its still like that to al degrees but the commercialization of hip hop made black artist into millionaires😢
yo ! I had a phase in high school for a minute where ALL I would listen to back in the days was only Blk moon & smif n wessin “ 360 degrees back home @ buck town “ a mind state !!!!!! 👊🏾😓
The real hip hop, just don’t see it or hear it like this anymore. One of the best rap dous and rap rap groups in history. Smif-N-Wesson and Boot Camp Click forever!
Oh my goodness, it’s 2019 and I still love that East Coast late 80’s to early 00’s style. I love me some East Coast men, y’all got this edge about y’all that just won’t quit and it drives me wild. And I love it! 🙂💜🇹🇹
This just feels good 😊I miss these days running through the boroughs from the Bronx to east NY out to corona back through uptown cross the bridge back home to Paterson NJ
I am so much older..but yeah..love this and was still back young enough to go clubbin and enjoyed this and still do..great memoris..still love this music
I was 8 going on 9 years old the winter this jank came out. I still remember and find myself yearning quite often for the 90s. The music, regardless of the genre, was on point, whether it was Snoop, Dre, MC Eiht, E-40, Mac Mall, BG Knocc Out & Dresta on the West Coast/Bay; or UGK, 8Ball & MJG, Outkast, Geto Boyz/Scarface, and Playa Fly in the Dirty South; or Wu-Tang, Masta Ace, Gangstarr and anything Primo-Produced, Nas, Biggie, AZ, Big L, Lord Finesse, etc. on the East, the rap/hip-hop was at a point that will never be matched, and then you also had incredible rock/grunge/alternative music coming out all decade from Red Hot Chili Peppers, Alice in Chains, Soundgarden, Nirvana, Radiohead, Blind Melon, Metallica, Stone Temple Pilots, Pearl Jam, Rage Against the Machine, and on and on and on. The great music was literally endless. And the same goes for 90s movies--countless classic movies came out then, too. There's far too many to name, but just for starts, there was Boyz N the Hood, Menace II Society, Jurassic Park, Saving Private Ryan, Juice, Heat, Pulp Fiction, American History X, Jackie Brown, Goodfellas, Casino, and I could keep going but I won't. Now everything is so artificial just like the people. All music sounds the same--it's a bunch of mumble rappers who couldn't imagine having a unique style they could call their own even if they dreamt it up. And movies are a bunch of CGI bullshit and/or some bullshit that's trying too hard to make a message by having the main character be some "strong woman" or a minority or whatever instead of just trying to tell the story as real as they can. But alas, the 90s were as real as it gets, and dare I say it was the last real decade, at least up to this point. I was 14-years-old when we said goodbye to the last great decade and welcomed in all the bullshit that came with the 2000s. I'm thankful I was able to come of age and experience almost 5 years of the 80s and the 90s in its entirety, but I'll be dammed it if don't miss them, because like I said, we live in the time and age when fakeness and gimmicks reign supreme, and I hate it. Now it's not just fake tits, these days it's all fake eyes, fake thighs, fake ass, fake hips and fake lips. Fake ass movies, fake ass rappers, and worst of all, fake ass people.
Almost accurate, Irving. It changed around 2001-2005 (9/11 had som'thing to do with it) After 2005 things became worst rapidly. But at least we lived the 80ties, 90ties and the start of the 00s. I was a dj back then and I'm very thankful for those memories now. Hold on tight man :-)
Fue una de las canciones que me marcó mi vida en el Hip Hop, cuando tenía 17 años cuando habían buenos beats y esperar todas las tardes rap City en el canal BET. Algo que la nueva generación jamás va a comprender. Saludos a todos los un undergrounds de los 90s.
I was like,"Man New York must be cold" when I first saw this video. 😂 I couldn't relate. Too much sun in the South but I still mess with the New York cats that could flow. Bucktown!!!
I was on IG and saw a clip of them performing this song on the Tiny Desk. Had not heard it for years so I came here for a listen. I was about to hit the like button when i noticed I already had! This song is a stone cold classic and i need to make sure I don’t go another ten years with out rockin this joint.
I use to be n the streets of Harlem living this vibe. Highhh as fluck gave us a good bounce cornrolls baggie jeans Tim's and a hoodie plus hell smoke I thank you dudes for rolling with me through my headphones.
