- www.vladtv.com - The legendary Big Daddy Kane sat down with VladTV where he spoke on his relationship with Jay Z, saying the Brooklyn boy was introduced by mutual friend Jaz-O who asked Kane if Jay could spit on a track with him. Kane agreed and thought Jay was nice enough to take on the road, and while he was never Kane's hypeman (as many believe), he would spit a few bars for about ten minutes while Kane changed back stage.
Kane says he and Jay still have a good relationship, with Hov bringing him out for Summer Jam and for the opening of the Barclays Center in Brooklyn.
"Wasn't for the Cain, I wouldn't be Abel" -Jay Z
J. Swann never look at the line like that(until i read your comment) i saw the (Co)Cain and bible references but never though of Kane. good thinking
Main Man Music double entendre
J. Swann Damn bro, I just caught that shit lmaooo
i think he was referring to co-caine, not Big daddy kane
J. Swann that's half true. JAZ-O put Jay-z on for real. jay been ryhmin wit JAZ-O
Kane is 1of the few golden age mcs that have grown old gracefully.I dont sense an ounce of bitterness.Most cats would've ripped Jay and said since they pit him on they feel he shouldve done more like give em a mansion n some mills in the account.Kane just takes everything in stride.Although imo Jay shouldve done more.
Big Daddy Kane was sick MC. He can rap circles around half the MC's today #Respect
DANCE AROUND EM TOO LOL
shizzo kane big Daddy Kane vs jaz-o in a 89 rap battle?
Kane would Kill'em All !
You mean all of them
@@bluv812 to this day he would rhyme circles around Eminem 😂 and everyone's favorite rapper.
Now this is a guy y'all should interview more often.
Yeah instead of Lord Jamar all of the time. Speak to someone with real historical knowledge that educate the youth.
Lenny Dixon Yo Lenny man, STFU!!! I am not dissing Jamar or suggesting that BDK doesn't like Jamar!!! WTF are you talking about???
All I am saying is that BDK's history is longer and deeper. He can explain things like Jay-Zs origin in depth because he was a big fish back in the day. Now MIND your FUCKING business... Goddamn!!!!
Lord Jamar is cool, but it seems that all he does these days is troll and say things that he knows will cause controversy.. Don't get me wrong, I respect him. He's legendary.
But I'm getting tired of seeing him on all the time saying stuff that he knows will cause a reaction. It just gets old.
Also Kool moe dee. He has some lectures on CZcams.
mrlawilliamsuk Warmachine Really? I didn't know that.
So crazy to me that Big Daddy Kane is only one year older than Jay-Z
yea.....Kane started at like 17 ....Jay's first album came out when he was 26
He is?
@@jeromebeck7297 jay first album got nothing to do with when he started
Wait really?
@@vinnydeville4675 That was when he really left the streets
Nobody is appreciating the quality camera positioning and lighting and background? Am I the only one? This is some work Kane deserves it
Dude low fro is on point
So many people will never understand the amazing talent this man was. He was just a pure rhymer. Look up "Raw" by Kane and Kool G Rap, and put that against Eminem, Kendrick, whoever you want man. That nigga is the truth.
If you thought that Jay-Z was dissing kane with that line you're not hip hop.
That line was about Kane from menace 2 society
I wonder how Jazz felt once he found out Jay Z was chosen to work with BDK instead of himself after he helped Jay Z get on the record with BDK to begin with.
DeepOneForThought jaz-o was colder Kane stole his fast rap n jaz-o wrote have of ain't no half stepping the part when Kane say I'm the originator
The first thing that came to mind was... if jazz didn’t try to help jay, Kane would’ve brought jazz on tour. Lesson is you gotta help yourself first.
Him n Jay kept working it wasn’t deep
@@coachshamusic4762 jaz helping jay coulda lead to more opportunities, think of jaz shunned jay we would not be bringing jaz name up today
damn his hair mad fresh
Big daddy Kane is known as an 80's rapper and Jay z 90's...but both are like the same age.
The same goes for Rakim & GZA.
Nah Kane is about 10yrs older
Nai'Lah Lynn smh Jay-Z is 48 and kane is 49
Has nothing to do with age obviously kane was big in the 80's and Jay-Z was big in the late 90's that was their eras
Jay-Z is corny and tries to act and look younger alot. Plus Kane had the mustache and the high top fade, so he seems a lot older.
This cat right here is one of the top ten lyricists of all time!!! I still keep those first 2 albums in rotation today!!
this man is a legend/genius, he was waaayyyy ahead of his time
Salute to BDK... Taste of Chocolate was the first tape I ever bought with my own money, I was 11 years old and the dude at the store said don't have yo mama coming up here going off on me. Dude at the store looked out big time. LMAO the days
sreejit sarkar so that means u are over 45 now am I right
@@stxfdt1240 He most likely didn’t buy it on release, record stores still sells 80s and 90s hip-hop to this day.
Kane on tour with Pattie Labelle..I had no idea
Sounds like an odd pairing up, huh?
Yup, the crowd was probably confused as hell
They did that back in the day, hip-hop acts when open up for the R&B old school artist.
Most young cats don't remember how huge BDK was back in the day. BDK had a very big cross-over adult impact . I remember the tour. BDK appealed to a large audience during the 90's. A few of his hits at that time was produced byTeddy Riley. Which Teddy Riley was one of the top R&B producers.
Flow of Wisdom Not only that, but BDK's style could actually appeal to a Patti Labelle audience cuz he was on that female tip. That was during that New Jack Swing Era and you mentioned Teddy Riley so yea it all made sense.
wow lol Vlad really doesn't understand lyrics? "Seen the same thing halpen to Kane, 3 cuts in your eyebrow trying to wilout" All Jay was saying is dudes at the time was biting his style, just like they use to bite Kane. Thats wasn't too deeep to understand lol
I was thinking the same thing...but then when Kane explained it I was like, uh, you sure you even remembering that conversation with Jay? I don't think he did and was just trying to say something good to brush it over. Respect.
OutSource FutureMental that's what happen when u infiltrate the culture. It's only so long fake thugs can pretend -Jay
I still love BDK....... those good all days
thats a crispy fro
the line about the eyebow was simple saying that Jay notice that after big daddy kane went on tour by the time he left a city they done took his style and ran with it making it hard for people to see who really came up with the idea in the first place...when you rock a city so hard and you go back after only being there once you see the impact you made just by how the city hiphoppers was acting before you came vs when kane left
kane vs rakim was like jay z vs nas...one was lyrical with the storytelling and the other had mass appeal,wordplay,and more popular
...who's the better MC then?
Who was who. I'm lost they both are fucking ridiculous!
Samuel Sjöstedt Gonzalez Yea thats a bad comparison but I'll guess on Kane and Jay being the mass appeal, popular ones.
I think it's a good comparison... Ra and Nas didn't have mass appeal... they had HUGE fan bases... Jay and Kane had hit singles that broke the genre barrier... all four are ill lyricists though...
Samuel Sjöstedt Gonzalez Basically Rakim was the better lyricist (best of all time)....but Big Daddy Kane had the flow, crazy punchlines, swagger, and performance....so BDK was a better all around emcee and entertainer...but he wasn't touching Rakim lyrically,
Pay your respects kids this guys a fuel
1st off, shout out Vlad for this clip...lately the gossip clips you been posting about who screwing who has been wearing me out! Secondly, Big Daddy!!! Love your demeanor, love how you just answer and even when you can flip the real answer for a fake one to get a buzz, you solid with it. Vlad needs more clips of you and other pioneers for real.
I was just gna say the same thing - he seems like a real honest and pretty legit dude ae lol
Big daddy Kane was the sh%t back in the day ain't no have steppin is a classic, this dude is still smooth today these young cats could learn a lot listening to this guy. He put Jay-Z on when he was a nobody. Jay-z should get in touch with Big daddy Kane invite this man to his California Mansion or out to lunch or something, you never forget the people who gave you your start in life.
Everybody's on some ish! LOL. Here's some knowledge for you on Kane:
BDK is still currently touring nation and worldwide... does shows, all around, all year long. He's made a collective album called 'Las Supper - Back to the Future', just last year... it's an an old school soul/hip hop fusion album with live band... and his lyrics and flow are STILL, always... on point. He drops singles, every year, a few of them... with various hip hop artists, features and his own singles... just not a new solo album, since 98's Veteranz Day'. Don't get it twisted... he doesn't need Jay-Z's money... Kane's been doing this for over 26+ years and is enjoying his life and music He does it his way and is successful at it. Just 'cause he isn't in the media coverage, 24-7 like Sean Carter's life is, doesn't mean he's not eating right. He's doing great. Hov, pays respect... every now & then to the forefathers of the game (as proven with the Hot 97 Summer Jam & Barclays Center cameos). And besides all of that... he's one of the most down to earth, great people in Hip Hop, and in general... who really gives his all, in his performances and takes the time for his real fans.
BigMannyP he brought him out during Madison square garden too right?
"I came back and it's plain,Y'all niggaz ain't rappin the same.
F the flow y'all jackin our slang. I seen the same shit happen to Kane
Three cuts in your eyebrow tryin to wild out.
Legend one of the greatest MC's to ever touch a mic. Kane birthed a lot of these niggas Kane is the original B.I.G. I truly think he don't get ALL the credit he deserves!
Hair is neat as fuck. Could play ball on that shit.
I was just sayin that too.. That nigga fro is phenomenal!! Lol
Lmao!!! Nigga woke up like this lmao
lol
More like golf to me! 😀
hairline is CRISP im hating lol
Yea I rememba Dat video wit em & Jayz, ol'Dirty Basterd! like 94-95'
Kane is a humble legend, never came off big headed and always put other MCs before him
THE ORIGINAL B.I.G
And original Jay-Z as well.
Well that 1 dislike obviously isn't a fan of real hip hop
That Jay-Z line was a shout out to Kane, not a diss. It was about people imitating his style. Rappers trying to look like Jay-Z (hat tilted, chains, swag) the way they tried to look like Kane in the 90's.
That's a crazy ass hairline tho.. name of his barber would be awesome lol
Everybody knows the name of Kane's barber :)
Mad Money Murf with the triple M
Smooth the barber keepin' my flat-top trim
Scoob Lover my brother, Scrap Lover my other
Dancin' with the crew so allow the boys to smother
kane believed in jay z before alot of people and vlad you need to understand that kane is a pioneer to this rap shit and he wasnt wrong he followed his gut and was right about the talent jay z has had this whole time. Jay Z should thank him
Jay always talk about Kane that’s his homie
Yo Vlad... It'd about time u got Kane on there. Do more interviews with people we really want to see.
Warm it up Kane!!
BDK was crazy lyrical, Even back in 89' his wordplay and delivery were flawless.. Smooth Operator is stiil the shit!!!
Aint nobody hairline that ill... something fishy going on!
LOL....
@Da Royal General Underrated comment 🤘🏿
More KANE please!
Nuff Respect Due
Jay would never diss Kane, no one in hip hop worth their salt would disrespect the god.
The King Kane. Peace..
Kane pioneer ,1 of Da greats much respect do!
Big Daddy Kane was among the last of the old school rappers that flourished in 80's.
KANE'S THE GREATEST!!
Kane is in my top 10 lyrically and can go different styles
Kane is one of my favorite emcees all time
There was a VHS tape back in the day that the video was a big ass cypher with jay z when he was mad young and like 20 other MC's..... I'm talking early 90's tape.... Does anyone know the name of that VHS tape?
Did Kane inspire Jay's change clothes?
That's a very good point wow I assume so.
Legend!
Dope... triple OG
From brian pumper to lord jamar to the mighty Big daddy kane. Dj vlads gt the whole spectrum.
Yo looking at his face he looks mad like ODB.
They favor alot. 😅😅
As articulate and smooth spoken as Kane is, why did he stutter so much during the answer about the eyebrow story that Jay-Z gave? Not trying to create anything, but I have to admit, it makes me wonder...
You saw that too, huh.
MORE KANE!!!
A lot of people keep saying Jay wouldn't have made it without this and that person. He would have because he started his OWN LABEL when nobody wanted to sign him. I heard Damon say that out his own mouth. Sure, Jay may have hopped on a few cats records before that but it wasn't life changing money. Maybe rocafella start up money off that and other hustles at the most. And then he stayed consistent to this day.
True. I just think when people say that they just mean it would have taken him a different route, but in the words of Jay himself: "I'm hearing mothafuckas saying they made Hov, yea well ok so MAKE ANOTHER HOV".
QuadrantBottomHalf you know how many niggas try too say somebody was the reason for jay success...they be like if it was not for jaz ,or dame and biggs,or biggie passing,or kane, jay would not be here...smh i even heard some niggas be like if was not for jermanine dupri putting jay on money aint a thang or big l freestyling jay would not be here and its all laughable..jay was destined for success and when it was his time he took full advange of it
Jason Toussaint yea I heard Jermain in an interview saying how Jay wasn't really popping in the south until money ain't a thing came out. That's a matter of opinion.
QuadrantBottomHalf, Rocafella Records was started by DAME, BIGGS, n JAY Z. They played their positions for the most part...Dame (CEO), Biggs (CFO), n Jay (the rapper/face).
Kane is a Rap Don. What a classy guy and it doesn't get more OG than him.
Kane....look like he's every ready for a battle.
Fuckin' Legend! OG #Aintnohalfsteppin
The Jay-Z reference doesn't make as much sense when you leave out the set-up bars. Instead of starting at "I seen the same thing happen to Kane" start at the bars that set that line up. "...then I skated to 4 (million sold) before I went on tour, I came back and it's plain you niggas ain't rapping the same, fuck the flow you jacking our slang, I seen the same thing happen to Kane". When you get the whole picture it makes a lot more sense and there's no way you could take it as a diss. Niggas bit everything about Kane, from the slang to the flow to the look. Jay was simply saying niggas were biting his style in the same way.
Kane top 15 all time great. one love to Kane. Jay z top 2 next to Tupac. these 3 emcee's are amazingly gifted.
One of the G.O.A.T.S 🎤🎤🎤🎤🎤
Much love to you bdk u still the man..
kane is a living legend, aint no half steppin
he was talkin to The Lox with eyebrows line cuz the lox was "Wild Out"
Kane always calm and cool ...you're #3 in my top 10 Bros✌
It's good to see youngins respect a hiphop deity....
kane still looks good !:i wish he made new music!
Awesome interview
I remember when Biz brought Kane out at his show at Latin Quarters! The crowd was open!
Kane is a supergoat Mc!
The King
Even if he stutters, he still comes off 4:17 - 4:20
I saw that clip of him bringing a young Jay Z, out during his concert, jay had some gold teeth in his mouth, he was really young. Then you see Dame Dash going hard for Jay, him blowing up, then shaking everybody and doing Jay. lots of people want him to acknowledge their part in his career, but its never enough
One of the greatest.
Kane looks like he is from wu-tang.
Good to see BDK still chilling...
My father Jimmy Nunya told this story years ago!
Long live the Kane. The REAL G.O.A.T. right there.
Angie all those radio Djs were always trying to stir up BEEF i knew that wasnt a dis and i was in high school when that dropped
Kane is one of my all time favorite hip hop artist. That's when it was real and it was insulting to copy someone's style. Glad he was honest about Jay Z. No one would have guessed he would get as big as he has.
Gotta respect Kane
This nigga got the cleanest haircut I ever seen
The Pioneer.
Damn just like in Stars Wars episode 1 when Qui Gon was killed by Darth Maul and Obi Won had to avenge his death. The apprentice surpassed the master. I wish Jaz and Jay would do more records together after "jigga what". A Jaz/Jay, Jay/Biggie, Jaz/Jay/Biggie album together would epic omg. Somebody sign him up asap. Hate seeing great artists not get they shine.
Do it again (put ya hands up) is the song BDK IS talking about at 3:04
No arguments here, Kane is one of the best!
Real hiphop history
Vlad, you could of had a better thumbnail for Bdk. Come on son
The game is ours we'll never foul out RS!
Kane and Jay the same age lol
3 cuts in ya eyebrow tryna wild out
Long live the legend, BDK!
Vlad how Hip Hop are you if you never saw Kane with the 3 cuts in his eyebrows? Half of Brooklyn was doing that in '89-'90...
People don’t understand what he did for Jay’s career. He’s the reason why Jay is so successful and to me he should of gotten that success too. People still credit Big L and Nas. L did give Jay some exposure to the world with that freestyle but it doesn’t mean he made him it was Kane. Kane to me is one of the best rappers of all time and deserves his respect. I’m not a huge fan of Jay but I can also put him in the conversation though I’m not a huge fan of most of his music. People nowadays are wilding and need to stop discrediting legends like Kane.
Why is he sitting with his back to the interviewer?
JZ should have put Kane on.
BD Kane is One if Krayzie Bones inspiration for writing flows Krayzie perfected it
Daddy kane's cut is kinda illadope style fresh to the breakadawn.
