The arab lady being sampled in the beginning is Ofra Haza, a yemenese israeli jewish singer who was very famous, not only in the middle East but across the world.
Nas sampled this beat in his Jay Z diss also
@@orlandovazquez9662 destroyed him.. “is it h to the Izzy m to the Izzo the hip hop version of sisquo” lol
Good information right here
Don't Sweat the Technique by Eric B and Rakim. A lyrical masterpiece.
Rakim is one of the greatest Lyricist of all time. This is who all the people that things are good now look up to
LONG ISLANDS OWN
No he is the GOAT.
They don't get the credit they deserve.
Not only lyrics, the sound of his voice was what every rapper wished they had. It’s a deep, commanding tone that’s rich, smooth and and complex, with a touch of sweetness, like blackstrap molasses. When you hear someone with a voice like that, you take notice and listen to what they have to say.
@@guslulu4126 well spoken king 🤴
STILL know this whole rap and it's been 33 years.
Same.
@@Spthomas47 You know he's gotta do "It takes Two" by Rob Base and Dj E-Z Rock
@@spudsoup72 that would be outa sight.
Rakim could be the GOAT rapper, period.
You must check “Move the Crowd”, “I ‘ain’t No Joke”, “The Ledge”, “Microphone Fiend”, “Lyrics of Fury” for starters.
Peace ☮️
These. 👍🏻❤️
Lyrics of Fury was my favorite flow but it was too under-produced and the sound quality was bad.
You forget in the ghetto..one of the best story raps bottom line
imo Follow The Leader and Lyrics of Fury were his very best and The Ledge 3rd.. Rakim was so ahead of his time and his bar onslaught still holds up because his skill is timeless, these current mc's should study this man and know he did all this in a very short time frame
@@shinigami146 Raw is the best..nobody likes condoms more than raw ask anybody
You have to do Follow The Leader by Eric B and Rakim at some point. Amazing bars.
Yes
FOESHOW
Listen, the "R" was so raw, lyrical and just did it his way. He's one of my favorites, listen to microphone fiend. Good one 👍
Rage's cover of Microphone Fiend is epic too.
The Arabic part was a song by Ofra Haza, "Im Nin' Alu", she was known as the Madonna of the middle east.
Eric B and Rakim ‘Follow the leader’ gangsta song.
Gotta Do Microphone Fiend 💯💯💯💯💯 That's The One My Dude And I Ain't No Joke and the classic party joint I Know You Got Soul 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
@@MiLKSOP Yessir
@@MiLKSOP Check Out My Melody That's A Certified All Time Classic Without Question Hands Down 💯💯💯
@@MiLKSOP yes man but it's very few though some of them don't appreciate real hip hop they love this new Mumble Rap B.S
Also you could do the Rage Against the Machine remake of Microphone Fiend. Might be a cool episode.
Can’t forget Eric B for president
If you've ever seen Old School, this is the song that Snoop Dogg performs at the party before Will Ferrell goes streaking.
It's also the baseline for hit em up by Tupac.
Eric B and Rakim were revolutionary in various ways. Rakim is credited with being on the forefront of modern rhyming for emcees. He was one of the first to completely break away from the “throw your hands in the air and wave ‘em like you just don’t care” type of rhyming.
Boogie down productions my philosophy
You’ve probably heard that beat before. It’s one of the most sampled songs out there.
It be cool to react to more 80's Rap stuff like:
- DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince
- Curtis Blow
- RUN DMC
- Biz Markie
- Kid n Play
- LL Cool J
- Slick Rick
-
special Ed’s first album Youngest in Charge is fly as hell.
The best songs would be:
I’m the Magnificent
Think About It
Fly M.C
I Got It Made
Hoedown
Still have my cassette a classmate "burned" me from the radio of Dougie Fresh and Slick Rick's "The Show".
It cemented me as a head since.
@@flacobrian3754 nice to see a Special Ed comment.
@@Spthomas47 Knew every lyric to that 7" Get fresh crew!! As ya do!!
Paid in full classic shit. They changed the game with that album!!
The beat is the iconic break beat from Ashley Roach Clip by Chuck Brown and the Soul Searchers the originator of go-go.
Man...
Haven't listened to this in, probably, decades.
Hell yes.
One of the most influential albums in hip hop, period.This song was jamming in the clubs circa 80s
Lupe Fiasco- Dumb It Down
Nas- I Gave You Power
Joey Bada$$- Survival Tactics
O.C- Time's Up
Velvet Revolver- Slither
This dude reacts to some of the all time greats. Keep them coming.
This is actually M/A/R/R/S doing a remix of pump up the volume
#KingAhmadTv
Coldcut
Not M/A/R/R/S…
From what I remember a lot of people were being robbed for their chains - for that reason I hope the trend doesn't come back.
This is what I listened to when I was 15.
I know you got soul by Eric b and rakim
The bridge is over by boogie down productions
Hit "Don't Sweat The Technique" and be ready to be floored.
hear live Beastie Boys David Letterman “Ch-Check it out” and live on MTV “An Open letter to NYC” must see
The amount of samples in song it amazing a lot belly dancing music and James brown
Appreciate ya !....Hip-hop- began in the 80s...not by a little bit ...BUT by alot my brother....so much more to discover.
Keep diggin...
The only iconic one verse classic in the entire hip hop culture history,, and it’s the title track to the iconic album that changed the entire landscape for all rappers and emcees
Oooh Ahmad, are you getting into classic hip hop reactions? Man I hope so....it will give you even more background into why older heads can't stand what's passing for rap these days and even lets you know where Em is coming from in his disses.
Kool G Rap & DJ Polo - 'Streets Of New York'
Do Let the Rhythm hit em- Rakim and Eric B
Bet 🔥
My fav is "Don't Sweat the Technique"......love the bottom bass on there!!!
It's time to react to their song Juice-Know the Ledge!
I’m old enough to remember when this first came out... badass then and now.
He was ahead of his time lyrical beast he was like 18-19 when this album came out in 86-87 ish do more of his stuff and some LL cool J. Rakim heavily influenced so many rappers including Nas they used to call nas the new Rakim when he came out in the early 90’s. Rakim has been quoted and sampled a lot he has a one kind of voice smooth and good tone and he NEVER curses hardly ever on all songs. Listen to more songs
DO: Know the Ledge, Eric B is President, microphone fiend, in the ghetto, mahogany, the 18th letter always and forever, remember that, the saga begins, New York ya out there
Microphone Fiend.... Is my fav Erik B and Rakim joint
Now youre on to something. I still think Paid in Full is the greatest hip-hop album of all time. It was so groundbreaking and changed the course of rap music. If you want to be blown away do "Lyrics of Fury". BTW this is the club remix, not the album version.
The Bass line of this song was sampled by 2Pac for Hit Em Up.
Love getting to watch your musical journey man. It’s like getting to discover these artists myself for the first time all over again. Much love!
@@OriginalMan313 much love to you as well pops! Love seeing you here in the comments supporting your son in his journey!
Not sure if anyone wrote this yet, this is the remix of Coldcuts edit. Coldcuts is known for their edit. Do the ledge.
Not only that, but Eric B apparently hated this remix even though it was the one that blew up.
Been waiting for this
Public, Dmc, Tribe called, LL, De La, ect even older.. Grand Master, Sugar Hill. I guess ya know the rest That was my hiphop youth! As ya do
The production on this mix still is mind blowing. So clean and so diverse. Speaking of Stick Up Kids, check that track by The B-Boys. Another classic!
"As The Rhyme Goes On" off the Paid In Full album
A great great classic. This is The remix by the coldcats english dj 💿😉👍
Eric B & Rakim - Eric B. Is President {This was the song in my teens } czcams.com/video/0pwoIFyWE1M/video.html ..or My Melody ... or.... Follow The Leader ...or... Juice (Know The Ledge) ..or... Don't Sweat The Technique ...
Yeah rakim looked dope in those tracksuits with all the ropes and Cuban links around his neck
Rakim basically invented flow and technical rhyme patterns (rhyme within a rhyme) listen to "I ain't no joke"
Cuban links are cool. The one they are wearing we called dookie chains back in the day.
Finally found the "GREATEST" ever!
This is a mix that put this song over the top - the mix was by a British dude I believe......
Yeah, I was thinking the mix sounded off from the album version I had on "Book of Life" hits disc.
I haven't seen ANYONE on CZcams do a reaction to the jam that literally STARTED what we know today as the "New School". Eric B is President! THAT song, changed the hip hop world forever!!!
love this track
The radio version is as much a Coldcut creation as Eric B and Rakim. They took the album track which was fairly basic and layered it with more samples and scratches.
thats a video remix the original is the beat he's rapping on
Definitely. This video is the club remix that Eric B does not condone. Please update this reaction to the og track on the album. Every reaction video of Paid In Full uses the club remix. I do enjoy this remix when it came out. But the og track was the anthem of the streets when it was out. Also, look up the Mob Depp version of it. Pure 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Grandmaster Flash, Jam Master Jay, Eric B, Terminator X, DJ Jazzy Jeff, etc. Rap music lost a big part of itself when it moved from DJs to producers.
Facts, big part of the essence was lost
The Saga Begins is the joint!!
He's GOATED 🐐
"Colors" soundtrack ftw.
Flame song!
This is the Coldcut Remix....
Just so you know.
Follow the leader is an absolute heater.
This is the remix this dropped like November December 87 Paid in Full album dropped late spring 87 you gotta listen to the original joint
if this was sampled before in hiphop, chances are it was a tip of the hat to President Eric B
Ayyyyy! How many times have you heard this beat? This is the original. Legends, man. ❤️❤️❤️
This is a remix by Coldcut.
The G.O.A.T.!!!
This song was so big growing up in the late 80s. Classic.!
If you want to hear an amazing beat from Eric B. And Rakim, check out “Keep the Beat”.
Yes another classic. This is a remix btw. The music is by a UK duo called Cold Cut
They were pioneering.
True rap music
I ain't no joke. Eric B and Rakim
Eric B and Rockim were classics, many rappers used Indian/Arabic samples in the late eighties. Sampling was new then
That makes me wanna breakdance right now...classic reaction. Love your channel!!
Heard Eric B and Rakim didn’t like this remix at the time - hope they do now - it’s class.
Great reaction
Omg, was 17 when this came out, loved it, lived it, we grooved to it
I used to bump this whole album all the time back in the day
You should check out "Rakim tiny desk concert" a recent thing he did, absolutely epic.
Have you checked put EPMD yet? You Gots to Chill. Strictly Business. So what cha Sayin. All great tracks.
This is a club remix version but this was popular as Hell
I Love Rakim. He’s a perfect example of the warrior in the garden approach…
This song is the birth of modern hip hop
And watching you have nothing to say but just nod your head tells the whole story…
Mahogany - Eric B & Rakim
hey man at 00:59 was that Bernie Sanders ;-)) always knew he had a secret taste for good music
That’s hard 🔥🔥
You HAVE to check out "Don't Sweat the Technique", that's going to give you the biggest smile. A killer mix of sample with some of Rakim's baddest lyrics.
Wow. I hadn't realized an edit of the "7 Minutes of Madness" Coldcut remix had become the "Official Video" version of the song
Ooohhh! Some of the greatest to ever do it!
Ohhhh snap! Aright.
Dont Sweat The Technique. Know The Ledge. I Aint No Joke. Let the Rhythm Hit Em. All 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Those samples and efx was made by Coldcut. Together with Rakim’s rap was a lethal combo!
You gotta do The Message by Nas
Yo Ahmad going old school as hell ... let’s go
Auditorium mos def and slick rick!
Yo Ahmad This Was The London Remix Version The Album Version Is Much Much Better It's Without All The Extra Vocal Sampling and soul effects
Rakim a boss
Fish which is my favorite dish...
I ain’t no joke Eric b & rakim!!
That ladies voice is Ofra Haza Im nin alu
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I recognize that Jay Electronica "Exhibit C" intro.
Love it, but I remember when Eric B and Rakim was new. If you dig his styles, you might be a fan of Kool Moe Dee. I recommend "I Go To Work".
Also, Big Daddy Kane.
My favorite Eric B and Rakim is "Know The Ledge".
