#NWA #ExpressYourself #Remastered - Hudba
only song NWA did with no curse words...and they killed it.
david browning and?
Yet still explicit on most platforms
They changed a lot of their songs lyrics for tv and radio play
david browning and eazer said than done
And “we want eazy” (yes technically that is by nwa)
Dre: "I don't smoke weed or cess"
Also Dre: *makes album called "The Chronic"*
Because he met snoop dogg
Take street drugs, aka "pharmacology and illicit drugs" class....you'll get it. I believe it's an elective in most schools
He was never A real street gangster. Eazy e was right. Dre was a showman.
@@halo091 Showwoman
D.O.C. wrote Dre's verse it's his complete style.
The era of NWA was untouchable. One of my favorite rap groups of all time!
Sadly i wasn't alive at that time 😥 but mi can still listen to their music from back then
I just found coast contra. Highly recommended.
The best
Mid 80s - mid 90s best era for hip hop
Listen "RACIONAIS SOBREVIVENDO NO INFERNO"
this is the friendliest n.w.a song ive ever heard
it's almost got kinda de la soul vibes
lol
Fr lol 🤣🤣
@@julia2k8nwa something 2 dance 2 is their other friendly nwa song ever but yeah this song is still great express yourself that is
Dre: i don't smoke weed or cess
Also dre: SMOKE WEED EVERYDAY
@@zlide he made the beat
also dre: The Chronic album
Still : dr dre “I smoke till I sleep”
@@zlide Nate Dogg
@@zlide The was Nate Dogg
Insane that Ice Cube wrote so much for NWA, gotta be one of the best song writers ever
the d.o.c wrote more.
@@m4sh666 Still better than what we have nowadays, most of the song writers steal lyrics these days and the song isn't even good.
Top 10 of the 90's No doubt.
L1am21 ice cube wrote around 80 percent of “straight outta Compton” that album was a game changer
@@m4sh666 LOL. Thanks for the insite "M4sh" - Cant be further than wrong bigfella
This is the only song you can show your grandma from NWA's entire catalog lmao
"These nice, young men look scary but their message is positive!"
Wos still here in 2024🔥🔥 RIP Eazy-E 😇😇
n.w.a aren't assholes their just honest, and everyone loves them for that
+Not A Box Boxed 80s*
*they're

True
Easy E was a drug dealer
Song: "Express yourself"
Vevo: "Yeah sure, except this, and that, and that."
@Santiago Carmona facts this comment is underrated
uNderAtEd
still typing that shit like it’s 2018 bro get a life
@Santiago Carmona im over 13, i was just making fun because thereres always a idiot saying "underated/copied"
@Santiago Carmona LOL imagine not cussing having girls, a lot of hood friends,playing and watching violent content, being yourself before 18
The original song and the vocals for the express for yourself part was made by sung by Charles Wright. Eazy-E's uncle.
“Ice Cube! Is not for the pop chart!”
35 years later, ARE WE THERE YET?
This song was removed in Remastered version of GTA: SA, just a friendly reminder.
Another friendly reminder: This song was released in 1988, and that's 33 years.
They still have gangsta gangsta
The remastered version is ass anyways.
Why was it removed?

"It's crazy to see people be what society wants them to be, but not me!" One of my favorite lines in all of music right there
I was looking through the comments and the same time I saw this one is when he said it haha coincidence 😩
@@Terri.M.L wtf same here😲
✌✌
Society doesn't want them to be like anything. They want to be like it. They use there free as they please with there life's like anyone. It's everyone's personal choice and free will to do as they please
Same!
Dat beat will forever be a classic
One of the coldest samples ever! This is my favorite NWA song, this beat is just too cold
Yes
@FeR-kt1jt Madonna has the same song so she copied NWA?!
This song really showed off NWAs lyrical prowess
Cube was in his bag.
You mean Ice Cube's lyricism?
Can't we go back to this Real Shit.
For real
we should, my mind has always been old fashioned
Ikr
yes please, FUCK AVICCI AND THAT SHIT
avicci is good and gorillaz
Imagine having a clean song yet it being the most censored one ever
ikr
It's because Brands back then didn't want to be supported by rap music
Yup
@@stephenbrown4670 Thx bro been trying to find out why 🤣
they censored "I have a dream" in 0:20
This song was revolutionary.
If you’re still listening to the best rap group ever in 2023, you are a certified g in my books
Sad to see the times are over after the AIDS battle. R.I.P. Eazy 🕊️🕊️🕊️🕊️
Damn Dre killed this.
Tyler Johnson thanks to Cubes pen
vondrae hawkins whatever dog
So we gonna act like Ice Cube and Ren didn't write Eazy shit

"I'm expressing with my full capabilities and now I live in correctional facilities"
the violence is def. mentioned in this song.
4:25 "Welcome to Death Row"
maingangsta Death Row probably wasn't thought of yet, but it's crazy how foreshadowing that is.
I was thinking the same thing. If you haven't already seen the movie check it out "it's really great "

We’ll never get Rap like this ever again! Best Era….
This is the song that the new fans still don't know
+Raul Ortiz they don't they likely just listen to fuck the police and straight outta compton and think will smith wrote this
isn't this song in the movie
no one mention anything about the movie
although seemingly not everyone knows how to spell
and the point we were making is that it's likely that people wouldn't know this song.
we were saying it's unlikely that children wouldn't know that NWA made this since there's such a dissonancwe between this and the rest of their songs

Back when you could understand rap
Example Timmy turner
What about Kendrick
I can understand Kendrick
Kendrick is an okay rapper. He still hails in comparison to the old schools tho, but he holds up some of their standards. Like rapping about real shit or even telling a story.
bruh kendrick's only okay? Cartoons & Cereal bruh

It would be hard to overstate the massive crossover popularity of N.W.A. during this era. Everyone was into this music, whether they were rap fans or not. Any serious retrospective of the music and culture of the late 80's - early 90's would include this. Phenomenal stuff, the soundtrack of my youth.
Same with BB, late 80s and 90s MJ 🐐
wish the black rappers still defend these kind of issues, issues that actually matters rather than showing off with women and cars! I'm a hardcore rocker and metalhead and can't stand the newer era of hip-hop music but these old masters of rap, I admire! They put efforts into the lyrics, and also musicality!
You should check out Kendrick Lamar if you fell that way, especially his verse on Nosetalgia or a lot of his albums.
these golden days of hiphop..will never come back again...
thats what you think ;)
oh i agree 100 percent new school is fucking stupid but i mean you gotta have hope sometimes whats the point of saying oh its gonna suck just fuck it might as well make the most of it

+jack deez Agreed
+jack deez Plus these shitty singerkids.. Jacob Sartorius and you know...
For those of you commenting on the lyrics “I don’t smoke weed or cess”..Ice Cube wrote this song and indeed did not smoke weed yet during this period.
I don't think he ever smoked weed
13. He smoked weed during when he was in NWA and if you watched Friday you'll see Ice Cube smoking weed
Dre never writes his verses it either D.O.C who writes most of dre songs or ice cube when he was in nwa or Jay-Z who wrote still dre
Yep, and Dre _also_ didn't smoke weed at this point! That, uh, wouldn't last, as we all know.
InchonDM no dre actually smoke
Dre killed it!

Devante wolf mc ren was with eazy and cube was on his own
He started to smoke weed right before he made his album, and snoop has the one introducing him to it. During this song he didnt smoke it.
True
When he was part of NWA he didn't smoke weed. When she went to Death Row and met Snoop he started smokin

Dr Dre is actually an underrated rapper. He really expressed himself and rapped his heart out here. Arguably the best NWA song and probably the best ever from Dr Dre. 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
Love Dre but Ice Cube wrote the song
Black Baby Jesus did not know that. I think the best person was allowed to interpret the rap and that was Dr Dre.
He didn't write anything
dre is a producer he produce mixing and do beats sometimes he raps when someone write him a verse
Maybe as a rapper but can create the best ones and give them the most lovely beats ever
You raised us ✌️
1:35 eazy e taking a shit lmaoo im dead 💀💀😂😂

It also isn't a great time being white and a fan of NWA, out of looking like someone who hopped on the NWA bandwagon. NWA was my favorite rap group growing up, along with grand master flash and the furious five, and PE

Whole songs a sample bat
It was used for a coffee commercial too. I can't remember which one

Thank you the boys for reminding me of this classic
Why was the sign censored? All it said was “I Have A Dream”. I hate VEVO so much
@Lose Lose american's copyrighting phrases and words is disgusting. cancer charity's sueing each other for using the colour pink.
tg WV didn’t know you were the reincarnation of him... just saying you don’t know if he was alive he could like them, it’s not for you to say what the man liked or not? Isn’t that why people fought for rights so people have the right to like things without people judging
@Jesus Christ "I have a dream" is trademarked and a direct quote from MLK. If anybody wanted to put that in thier video I'm pretty sure they had to ask MLK's family members first.
@@jay-vi4pw doubt he was ever the 1st person to ever say it. and its weird that you can blur the writing of it but you can say it in your songs as much as you like. freedom of speech not freedom of writing i guess.

It is a happy song, tbh. Express yourself :)
yeah its the one thats just encouraging you to be you, don't chase the fame or the money pop charts just be true to yourself and make art
The HORNS riff is DOPE. Rolling bass-line. Positive lyrics with truth. When I first heard this was blown away…. Now hearing it again it’s my favorite song again
My favorite Dre song as well, I knew about NWA before this but this remix was wild af in 89, 🔥 was 18 that year it came out
The beginning?
When i was young i didn't understand some of the words that he was saying, but now...I just get hyped when he picks the microphone. This music is a patrymony and it should be never forgotten, express yourselves young men.
I'm a gen-z kid and I hate modern music , this music is the best
1:35 eazy on the toilet lol
Kinda ironic how NWA stood up against censorship yet the video today now has so much imagery blurred out
u obviously never seen the "original" youngster back in the day it wasn't. it was when music was music
Samuel Bryant I've seen the original. I'm saying it's a shame this version is blurred.

in his defense, he was a teenager.
Manooo Gaming good point
thats the dumbest comment i ever read.
This song which I first heard in the Straight Outta Compton movie actually changed my life back in 2015-16
The nicest NWA song.
Such a fucking shame this clip was so heavily censored.
The excellent moment at the start where the guys jump through the 'I HAVE A DREAM' MLK quote is completely ruined.
JakeStarstorm what did it say
I have a dream
As well as the "Los Angeles Raiders" wordmark they have on their hats are censored as well...
hers why if you listen to the lyrics they censored everything because they said that radios band thair type of music because it was violent so they made this song saying bad things about radio stashions but in a friendly way
