That beat is TIMELESS @ 1:56. no truer words have ever been spoken. I got this album and so wat cha saying was the first song. It took me 2 hrs to get to the next song because I kept rewinding this song just to hear that beat.
The beat is actually the song sampled during the chorus. DJ scratch has a show on XM radio, he played the beat raw before the studio engineer got ahold of it
Maaaannnn, I just can't get the words out right now. THIS joint was insane when it dropped when I was high school, and like dude said, it's TIMELESS. It stays on rotation in my phone and it came on which lead me thru some things all the way to this vid.
TImeless song, especially that beat. I was in East Orange a few years ago and a cat turned the block blasting this in his Hummer lol. Shit sounded insane.
I remember watching the premiere of this video on Yo MTV Raps straight 🔥 and for the record DJ Scratch went absolutely Bonkers Sheesh 💯 Official to this day
In the same era of Eric B & Rakim, this was EMPD second album and like first album it went better than gold .. It dropped in summer of 1989, Strictly Business dropped in 2988 and Unfinished Business dropped in 1989
Just peeped a few videos from the channel. Subscribed of course. Watching gives me life. Learning about those pioneers of hip-hop. I pray that I am able to follow suit when my son is old enough to understand.
When they showed a parade of hooded shadows on the wall, I thought the video was about to go in a _completely_ different direction. Excellent reaction and context guys.
Brother, I agree 1000%. Rakim in my opinion is the greatest and my all-time. 1st Rakim, then Pac. I had EMPD albums. This right here was definitely one of my repeat joints. Parrish had those bars,
Erik Sermon still to this day gets paid off this beat... Jodeci - Come and Talk to me(rmx), Ice Cube - Jackin for beats and Kehkani feat. Justin Bieber - Up At Night, to name a few...
I remember hearing EPMD on the legendary radio station AM 1580 KDAY in Los Angeles in 1988. Every hood from African Americans to Mexicans who be bumping EPMD at back yard house parties, school dances. Even the LA gangsterers would buming EPMD when they did drive by's .🌆 🏃🔫 🚗 🎶.....
Just as hard as EPMD was rapping DJ scratch was scratching! His scratching helped make that song a classic song.!!!
Some of the absolute best scratching ever.......
instablaster.
Shout out Pops! I love that you're taking your son down memory lane. #OldHeads #oldSchool

It's waack now, how there are no dancers in hip-hop like it was in the 80s and early 90s.
One of the illest beats in hip hop history. And it's an original beat too.

You might be right. I was thinking that too.
I think it was at hammer Bc he did diss run dmc tho
If you didn’t you should do that MC Hammer track pops was talking bout.
You wayy off on that "MC Hammer Diss" take....This record came out April 30, 1988...Hammers 1st LP came out in September 1988.
