If this ain't Hiphop
I don't know what is
Freestyle in circle with your friends

That's called a cypher
Definitely a cornerstone element of HipHop.
It's nothing but hip hop.
of the purest
The R is always the G.O.A.T. to me...No curse words & No mistakes allowed
Im sorry we cant retweet here. This hit me to my astral body
Cause to him MC means move the crowd....
Simple aint it? But quite clever.
True Dat..No curses..Rare and it was always still fly.
Still standing
"Age don't count in the booth when your flow stay submerged in the fountain of youth"
Rakim is a legend 🙌 💯
As a wise man once said
when does he say that ?
@@chronicillz1879 Check out the song Classic with Nas, Kanye and KRS.
@@Champion2D got it, thanks
Fact! God M.C.
Rakim is the King of NYC RAP! He influenced Intelligent Poetry in Rhythm!
Thank you J. Period!!!
Dope. Just dope. Shout out to the god. Youngsters pay attention. No gun bars, no bragging on the crack you sold. This is how it should be done.
This style is identical to none 🔥🔥🔥
@@RebornThaRebizzle Word
Always..
I'm 17 but I've been listening to the God RA bless the mic since a baby boy
Peace! True indeed; the youth must stop 🛑 spitting bars which emphasize murder; materialism; and misery!
Who the F*ck pressed dislike on this?!!! This is classic
wack people
Right? Like ughh wtf? They should be banned from you tube.
@@sshu2602 thats right
Prolly some bullshit lil pump fans or something...
Those who know nothing about what Hip Hop is.

You will have just pissed on your present, and will soon sh*t on your future. -Micahisgod

NOT ONLY A GREAT MC.. BUT A GREAT HUMAN BEING ..PEACE, GOD. FED. D
Rakim is a poet, word Smith, a genius.He is your favorite rapper's favorite rapper.His music is 35 yrs old and I still listen to him.No one has metaphors and the rhyme pattern or intelligence that this man posseses.Peace to the God.GOAT STATUS.NY LOVE.
What about K rino
@@chrisg3688 fuck k lol he definitely inspired me the Q!! My style is birthed because of the God
there's quiet a few rappers more lyrical and with a wider vocabulary than rakim but he's still one of the greatest and a pioneer
@@dassolosyndikat5113 Who? I was there in NY when hip hop started so you can't tell me nothing.Your entitled to your opinion but He's the best that ever touched the mic.Nas 2nd.
Excerpt from 'Follow the Leader', one of the sickest rhymes ever written and conceptualized:
Brothers tried and others died to get the formula
But I'ma let ya sweat - you still ain't warm
You a step away from frozen, stiff as if ya posin
Dig into my brain as the rhyme gets chosen
So follow me and were ya thinkin' you were first?
Let's travel at magnificent speeds around the Universe
What could ya say as the Earth gets further and further away
Planets are small as balls of clay
Astray into the Milky Way - world's outasight
Far as the eye can see - not even a satellite
Now stop and turn around and look
As ya stare in the darkness, ya knowledge is took
So keep starin soon ya suddenly see a star
You better follow it cause it's the R
This is a lesson if ya guessin and if ya borrowin
Hurry hurry step right up and keep followin
The Leader
Whoever thumbed down this needs to be excommunicated from the community. There is only one 🐐 and his name is Rakim
Well Idk, he's the top spiritual MC 4 sure but Idk if he has realistic rhymes down pat.
"When I'm writing I'm trapped in between the lines, I escape when I finish the rhyme"
Rakim, Nas, Guru. These 3 are the best of all time. "GURU "rest in peace.
This blew my fucking mind!!!!!!!
same here
Welcome to the 80s.
@@YourName-jm7lz lol
I became mesmerized by Eric B and Rakim in 1987 as a 15 year old growing up in Southern California. By far the best rapper of all time!!!!
30+ years later Rakim still set the Mic on fire legendary hip hop right there
Yeah man i remember staying up to record Eric and Rakim off the radio when i was 15. Im 50 now. Still my favourite.
FACTS
Kudos for creating immaculate Hip Hop classics. Glad to see old school giants on the game standin up strong🦣
Diffrent, Veeerrry Diffrent original, unbitten original artist, a freak of nature when it comes to rap!!!!!...
Rakim the G.O.A.T
He is the Godfather of bars!!!
Time 4 Bill
THE O-RIGIN-O !!!!!!!!!!!
The real rap god.
Period
The real GOAT hands down. Biggie and PAC, with all due respect, can’t hold a candle to this man right here.
😂😂😂😂
Im sure they’ll take no offense
@@dystantmind7254 you’re crazy for that one bro. 😂
Could not agree more………
Ignorant cause biggie went to catholic school he was dropping prophecy .. the commission 30 years 2027 RIP
One Act they disappearing then flipped it to gangster, conscious of your nonsense (,global warming covid) in 88 sold more powder than Johnson and Johnson. Tote Steele like bronson
U want to get on son u need to ask me
You are my all time favorite, and now you’re my 16 year old son’s favorite. ❤️💕
This is the Real Hip Hop I know. Taking it back to 85 or 86. The Best Era of Hip Hop.
I STILL OWN EVERY ERIC B & RAKIM ALBUM. I OWN EVERY RAKIM SOLO ALBUM. I LISTEN TO THEM REGULARLY. I CHECK CONSTANTLY FOR NEW RAKIM MUSIC. THIS IS FANTASTIC. THANK YOU.
You’re a real one my brother. Fuck it.
I got that vinyl too.
Still peep the back of the Paid In Full & Follow Tha Leader album covers.
I think The 18th letter is his dopest flow. ??you??
@@commentcraftsman Hard to really call what his dopest flow was. But check out: When I'm Flowin', off of that album
I miss the late 80's. This was dope
My youth, before the pussies took over.
Fresh for 88 you suckaz 😜
@@skepticfucker280 If they're pussies, how could they take over ? lmaoo
Masterpiece 👌 respect to the God mc from Ireland 🇮🇪
This gave me chills… this LEGEND is the reason I’m a MC…
The God MC! Peace and blessings to the man, the inventor of internal rhyme scheme and difficult delivery
Changed the game , sugar hill was like wtf?!? It’s over let’s just stop
@@1308SPAZZ lol.
No question Rakim shifted the pendulum.
A legend! I had the pleasure to met the GOD

Hip Hop lyrics "Overlord" The real original God M.C...
At 57, wasn't a big fan of HipHop however I heard them all....Til this day nobody does it better than The "R"‼ 👑
These are the kind of critiques i take most seriously.
Him and Krs-One
My Mount Rushmore of Hip Hop is Rakim, KRS ONE, Kool G Rap and Big Daddy Kane
80's, 90's and till mid 2000's, were the best era for hip hop.
If I had a time machine and could erase my memory, I would loved to go back in time to rediscover that golden time.
I remember this music from my younger age but until today April 30 2024 is when I found this lyrics master is Mr Rakim...U are a true Goat MC
It's sounds just as crispy as back in the days...So Dope..💯
Young rappers take notes. This is how you flow
younger
They need to be students before calling themselves rappers
RAKIM THEEEE GOD EMCEE . THE ILLEST MOSST LYRICAL GENIUS EVVER . WHEN I FIRST RAKIM IT WAS 1987 AND I WAS IMMMEDIATELY MESMERIZED .. THE LYRICS THE VOICE THE FLOW IT WAS ARTISTRY POETRY IN MOTION SILKY SMOOTH HIS MUSIC GOT ME THROUGH SOME HARRRD TIMES . RAKIM THE GOD EMCEE THE ILLEST .. ONE LOVE RAKIM THANK U FOR ALL OF UR CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE GAME... U R THEEE ILLEST
That’s the epitome of an artist right there. Since I was a child and I’m now 52 years old and still he’s here doing his thing.
Rakim needs to quit playing and bless us with new music.
7th seal?
He's like 60, chill
@@pistolpete8231 and your point is? Jay Z is almost 60 and he is still making music.. why can’t Rakim?
@@wolfofharlem But Jigga's output since Black Album has been inconsistent.
@@xXEliminatorXx99 inconsistent.. in your opinion?
BRO. DO YOU KNOW HOW BLESSED WE ARE TO SEE THIS? MANNN. ✊🏽💪🏽
Played the cassette tape until it popped my whole freshmen year 1987 in college. Went home to the Bronx and brought a new cassette tape and played that in my Walkman until that tape popped. I’m 55 years old and still play Rakim to this day.
The GOAT is here!...no stuntin!...no criming!...no cussing!...no sneak dissin!...no disrespecting women...no dissing his fan base!...just elevated rhymes that thrust you at magnificent speeds around the universe!...
This is rap this is hip-hop,Rakim is the Goat
Whoever gave a thumbs down listens to MGK... lol RAKIM IS THE GOD OF HIP-HOP!!! DOPEST EVER!!
Street logic music this is the funniest thing I’ve ever read
Whoever gave a thumbs down hates their life
49 fools sweating the technique
*THE GOD MC (GOAT) ✊🏾AND MUCH LOVE AND RESPECT “J. PERIOD” (ON THE WHEELS OF STEEL)😎👍🏾*
Rakim's book is a must read, if you love hip hop!! 📖
Rakim is Poetry many more years to bless the M.I.C. The man with the slow steady flow is timeless.
He is still number 1 in my eyes
The God MC 👑
Rakim is a fucking legend!!! He is the foundation of real fucking hip hop
Rakim smoking N.Y. state of mind.....my life is completed...nice knowing ya youtube😌🕊the god got me
Peace to the God.. From 86” till 2086.Greatest Mc of my time,I’m 46 years young.
Sick … Rakim = GOAT 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I'm 35 and I still smilling like a child like the first time I heard "H to the omo" from Nas and then "Paid in full" and I noticed that was a sample from the God MC. This is why I love hip hop, the ones that come after like Nas, Em and Busta (just to give some examples) are students of the game and pay their respects properly. Love from Argentina ✌🏻🇦🇷
I'm from California, but this Man...He taught us! As a child, Rappers Delight, Raisin Hell and LL were my rap albums. I had a record player that folder like a lil suitcase with ABC's on it. Took it everywhere. Beastie Boys, CMW and Too Short were my first tapes.
At 13, after school & football practice, we rode home to iron our jeans while watchin Ed Lover and Dre for some MTV Raps. 1987 to 1993 was this Man! Before Ice T, before NWA & Cube, before bumpin Pac...We was knockin Pain in Full-Rakim, EPMD-Gotz to Chill, BDKane, MC Lyte, PE, Stetsasonic, Heavy D, Guy, Tone Loc, LL and Spice 1.
Thing about Rakim, is he stayed Solid. Same flow. Even when Twista, Bone and 40Water was spitting at 100mph, The Goat was calm and collected. I don't know if he has any awards, but there would be no Dogg Pound if not for this man. Kurupt has said that painly. You deserve much honor and much radio play. The true epitome of a man and rapper to us.
Thank you Rakim, from me. I'm B Bad ObadiYah.
Just chill music. No need for drugs, throwing money, bikini, or expensive rented cars. Just bars which still bring memories on my youth in NYC. Just reminiscing of my old homies.
Can’t imagine how you feel 👍🏾
omg..yes perfectly said!
Word.....Tell em bout it
Rakim has been the same solid element since day one. Obviously the living blueprint to real hip hop didn't need any changes. Salute to the god emcee
Word up!
J PERIOD!!! Mucho respect for the Rakim content. To me he's the best to ever do it, and all he needed was a DJ like you to bless the fans 💯
Hip-Hop is modern blues. Fight against slavery but peaceful. Lets change this world without weapons but with the Voice. We are not living in a free world
This is Beautiful!!!!
Factssss
Like dude said "Fine Art"
Every time I hear Ra spit I envision a gritty N.Y. City when you had real B Boys, where trains was being bombed with the illest graffiti N.Y.C lingo Na Meen! That is the real subculture to me!
True pioneers of a lifestyle that permeated all races and countries all over the world
HIP HOP in its purest elements.
The true spirit of Original Bronx Community hip hop was and still is: each one teach one! Hip Hop evolved from gang violence out of the South Bronx. The community evolved salvaging their dignity eventually spreading the message of unity through creativity world wide
@@mjmatteo DJ Kool Herc, Grandmaster Flash, Melle Mel. And that piece of garbage Afrika Bambaataa
jsmctch indeed...
If you listen to his lyrics there's no cuss words no talking about chicks all he's talking about is lyrics holler at your boy rap on the R!!!
Give this legend his flowers while he's still here. Hands down the all time GOAT
The Statement That Was Made By The Orator In The Beginning Was 100% Right And Exact!!!!
Rakim Made It Crystal Clear That He Was NOT Here For The JOKES!!!
He Was Here To TEACH And Inspire!!!!..11/7!!!
Quite simply, one of the best ever. Keeps the hip-hop clothing style alive too! None of that skinny jean BS..!
I agree but the 90's tim boots... Hey, whatever is comfy for him. Who am I to judge? Gonna see him perform exactly 1 week from now at Harlows in Sacramento Califooolya. It's an intimate setting. I'm pumped!
Hip hop for life !!!!!
@maxhatty Tim’s with shorts in the summer
@@maxhatty timberlands are a staple no matter how comfy .Tru hip hop
There's something beautiful and magical in hiphop.. It connects people worldwide, and doesn't reject anyone. Peace, love and hiphop.
The years have not diminished Eric B. & Rakim. This sytle still vibrates my soul 34 years later. Respect for D'J.PERIOD and peace from the French West Indies. - Les années n'ont pas amoindri Eric B. & Rakim. Ce sytle fait toujours vibré mon âme 34 ans plus tard. Respect à D'J.PERIOD et paix depuis les antilles françaises.
what's dope about him is he ain't preaching anything, just shows how it's done...that verse on NY State of Mind beat is tough
Fuuuu yeah! 🌋
Too young to know huh??? If it wasn’t for this King Rakim you would have hip hop REAL
@@empressof1 what you mean? yeah he was before my time but I still grew up on his music...he's one of my biggest influences to rap
You peeped that? It's apparently something he wrote in recent years. The flow was so dope. Like he said in "Classic", he stay keeping his flow submerged in the fountain of youth.
The man just said RaKiM was before his time so what’s the problem⁉️⁉️⁉️ I’m about 6 weeks older than the GODD emcee. He started dropping classic materials 2 years after I left school 🏫 . It’s a shame to see what rap is today…………
This should be one million views easily. 30K after a week.....
Peace to the god..
Knowledge. Supreme.
Rakim is Just The Greatest on The Planet No Doubt..
Greatness… no one better. Paid in Full was the 1st Hip Hop album that I ever bought in the 80’s, I still have it “Framed”. Proud owner of everything from Eric B and Rakim on vinyl & CD.😌. Dope 💯
I agree, I was 12 when that came out, and yes I too still bump it cruising down the street.
Got chills every damn minute
same here bro!
Was buzzing too! Back for another listen 👂😅👍
Long live HipHop #poetry #art
2021...Who in France🇫🇷 listening always Rakim? The Real, the great MC!!!!
À Jamais dans l'histoire du Hip-hop.
Too Strong. Back to the old school
Yes!!! My brother J. Period paying homage to Rakim is pure genius and long overdue. Thank you for this gift.
This is classic! .. can we get a Rakim/DJ Premier whole album ? ..just throwing the thought into possible existence.. Peace
For real for real
Stop it..I am dreaming now that you said that. We could only wish!! ❤❤
Man that's like eating a ribeye topped with a filet mignon topped with gold a sauce lol
Rough enough to break New York from Long Island
Still my favorite MC
Rakim!the genre is blessed to have you.
Rakim was the Idol of all RapSuperstars!!! Only Kiddy´s dislike
Many may follow but the leader leads. Rakim is the shining jewel in the crown of Hip-Hop. Just as Bob Dylan was awarded the Nobel prize for Literature, so too should Rakim for his invaluable contribution to the poetic Arts. Rakim: In God we trust. Peace and love, Rakim, fom Australia.👑
WOW, OKAYY..
I AM CERTAINLY SHOCKED TO HEAR THIS...
COMING FROM AN AUSTRALIAN.
@@travisculley5934 Shocked? In what way may I ask? Hip-Hop and the Arts are universal are they not?
Saw Rakim at a small bar in NM. He stopped the show to very gracefully say " Yo, my man needs more bass" after some dude in the crowd shouted More Bass!! And then the Ra rocked it for one of the livest shows I've ever seen. This was only a few years ago... Legend
The "OG" No chicks, No Gang symbols, No Flossin, just pure unadulterated raw skills. Growin up in the NYC projects when this was NEW nobody did it better! A"DJ" 2 turntables a mic and the "R" Let's Go!
Respect and greetings from Poland ✊✊✊
I walk up the street whistling this 😗

The legend Still Standing the test of time never gets old
Djs, Graf artist, Bboys, & Mcs know wasup! Tru hip hop essence @J.Period & Rakim
Damn. Hip hop back then was gritty. I'm not talking about violent. I'm just talking head bobbing, bold, brash... confident swagger that made you feel this was from the street. Unmistakably New York.
RAKIM ALLAH. The Great Legend. !!!!!
"This is a place where stars are born" NYC
Word!!!
That's why everyone hate on NYC these days.
Man....Rakim....What can you say about this man? Genius. Innovator. Wordsmith. I will NEVER forget when I pushed play on my Emerson tape deck with Follow the Leader in it...My damn mind was blown. Whodini who? Doug E. Fresh what...Kool Moe Dee..whos that? ( I love em all I'm just kidding). Rakim is to me the greatest M.C. to ever breath on a mic. Thanks for all the memories and wonderful music. Give this man his roses while he's still here amongst the people. The God M.C. wont hang around us mere mortals forever.
One of the coldest, most underrated cuts Eric B. and Rakim did was No Competition. Rakim let everyone know that he was to never be compared to ANY M.C.
Much much appreciation n love to Rakim "God MC" legendary. Thank you. I miss this era. Hip hop is damn near dead now
FACTS
Dig deeper. It ain’t damn near dead. Skyzoo released a classic this year.
That’s 14minutes and 29seconds of my life I’m happy to keep enjoying…..
😂😂😂😂
This is personal
NY is the birth of hip hop where all the well known hit makers rappers is from.
He's before my time and I can appreciate that he's the GOD MC, he's bars put you in that period of time whilst still sounding fresh today!
