The fact that everybody ain’t on their feet during Rakim’s performance is a disgrace to the culture, this man is a legend. There would be no Jay, Nas or Biggie without him.
OMG!!! I was thinking the same thing. I was like wth wrong with people now days!?!?! That was mad disrespectful. They was sitting there like a bunch of kindergarten kids
All you keyboard activist are funny as hell. You couldn't even make it there and you're in yo house telling people in the crowd how they're supposed to react.
@@alexogbalu5918 😅......true
There would’ve been a Biggie and Jay. Nas is the only one you mentioned that’s cut from Ra’s cloth.
ABSOLUTELY RIGHT BUT THOSE WHO KNOW WHO RA IS TO THE GAME ,WE ALL SHOW MAD RESPECT TO THE GOD!!!!!!!!
These two men are 55 years old and rocking the stage like it's still the '80s. This is what longevity looks like.
FACTS ❤
None....AND I MEAN NONE...of these current fly by night "artists" will ever have this kind of longevity! 💯💯💯
@@MistaIncognitoNever!!!!!!!!
@brandonthomas633Are you serious?😂😂😂 She can’t hold a candle to these legends.
😂😂😂
U don't think they'll be able mumble in 40 yrs
LL Cool J’s stage presence is everything.
LL Cool J and Rakim true Masters of
Ceremonies showing how to do it
with no playback. Respect 👏🏾
Ra & Uncle L, 2 Greats on 1 Stage showing the world that real hip hop is more than just an art form, it's a culture and I'm proud to have grown up listening to them 💯
Facts!!!
💯💯💯
Eric B. and Rakim needs to be inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame next year. It's long overdue.
WAY overdue.
💯
Rakim should have gotten more time
THIS!!!!!!!!
They don’t have enough work..
Rakim took Bars to another level🔥🔥
I'm glad to grow up with Hip Hop 🔥
Yes sir,well spoken king 🤴
Yesssssss Real Hip Hop🔥
facts
Yuhhj
Real headz know 🎤
Marley opened the doors for so many producers, his style of sampling, looping beats took hip-hop to a higher level.
An eternal salute to one of the great production & D.J. spirits of HipHop! 💥🙏
When I say LL had a whole mini concert of his own 😂 he tore that stage Tf up!!
He always does
The audience didn’t deserve this performance! Everyone shoulda been standing up! I’m disappointed in them. This was a top tier performance! Others should take notes. THISSSSS is how it’s done!!! I woulda lost my damn mind if I was there. Salute to hip hop! The real hip hop!! Nothing against the new generation. But I’m a 80’s baby! And this is what I grew up listening to! Peace and blessings! 🖤
Not at all!! It's because it was down south and you know they're major haters!! Didn't matter tho greatness as shines above all!! Uncle L NYC ALL DAY
They were mesmerized by real hip hop. They literally had to absorb real art and not that trash the new generation is putting out. I would have been the same way. ❤
They stood up when ll came out
80sbaby /90s kid here... And you aren't lying ‼️
They definitely should have gave Rakim more love!!
They don’t even know how blessed they are in that crowd. Man
I swear they don't!🤔
They need to have a questionaire before these clowns get in... I'm serious. A catechism of hip hop. You can't answer or finish the bars or name the album, you can't come in, period.
Big facts
WOW LL COOL J's energy despite his chronological age is UNMATCHED!!! 😲👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
LL is still killing it on Stage in his 50s
LL COOL J KILLED IT
YES, HE KILLED IT!!!!
He ain't effin wit RAKIM, RAKIM WILL DESTROY HIM, L.L. is commercialized
@@Giselle_Glam594 Yes, he is!
@@Giselle_Glam594. They are BOTH great.
@@Giselle_Glam594You think Rakim ain’t commercialized ? Bro Please. No need to compare them. Rakim is on LL’s Tour this year.
I hate to be an old fogey but I gotta be an old fogey. The level Rakim and LL Cool J brought it was DIFFERENT. NO RAPPING OVER VOCALS. Breath control, presence, energy. Even with Ra being laid back it still felt like a moment. Live band, DJs. Plural. Just ... man. This is how it should be done. They styles are identical to NONE.
These young artists wish they could
Speak it 💪🏽💪🏽
Faaacts
🔥 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
@@AKingsQueenall of you kings are seriously right on point,,, real talk and facts
Paid in full is one of the greatest songs in Hip Hop History!!!! It will never get old to me! None of these classics will ever die🔥🔥🔥
The two GOATS, Rakim and LL. This is what longevity looks like the younger generation needs to take notes.
It's over their heads. Only a small few smart enough 2 realize & appreciate ✨
LL been on a tear this year with these performances he's putting on.
For real💯
When legends say when LL speaks you listen he ain’t never lie
Fact
LL cool j is hard as HELL
🫡🫡🫡🫡🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
LL & RAKIM tore this stage up better than all of the youngins around today. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Facts 💯
Performing live with no lip syncing.
FACTS 💯
Give the new generation their respect
@@anthonygilbert5138 Why? They don't deserve any!
LL dont play with his performances, you can tell he looks after himself. That high kick at the end was the truth. A true living legend and icon. Also Salute the God Rakim...I dont think some of the audience realised what they had just witnessed. Some people really should study hip hop history. Brilliant from both icons👌🙏🏽
They knew, just bored of his tired performances.
LL's showmanship is top tier!!!!!!!!
Its been for years !
Real Hip Hop has no expiration date💯💯💯💯💯. 50 years and counting!!!
Yes indeed!! 🙌🏾
Rakim and LL....true G.O.A.Ts of hip-hop
Rakim needed a standing ovation like L.L. did, I don't respect dat ish, rakim is the GOD
@@Giselle_Glam594
The Thing with Rakim is: When The God Speaks, Everybody Listens when he drops knowledge
Rakim the playback GOAT. He should stay with playback, because here you can see how trash he is live.
LL been going crazy with these performances this year 🔥😂
Whoever did LL’s sound check deserves a raise.
I was thinking same thing. They sound great.
LL IS THE GOAT YOUNGINS NEED TO STUDY THE WHOLE STAGE PRESENCE!!! VERY IMPORTANT
Been the GOAT bruh!!
He was not even out of breath. Talking in between songs in a normal, sincere tone.....amazing!
LL like many other legends that came from era performance delivery was mandatory. Not on only lyrics & beats was important but you had to rock the crowd or else you will get booed off the stage
This is what makes LL dangerous. Stage oresence should be in GOAT debate! Why, I put LL in a class by himself !
@wakeupstopsleeping6300 This is what you call and Emcee. LL performed in front of crowds while in High School and on the block and house parties!
Those who know....know. Salute to classic hip hop
Ll cool j murdered this performance no gimmicks just straight raw hip hop 🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤
LL had a masterful stage presence. Ra was masterful with his laid back flow. They both did great!!!
LL Cool J just demonstrated how to actually control and rocked the crowd. No hype men or dancers. Straight Emcee status. This isn’t my era by the way
I also noticed the DJ did not interrupt LL when spitting his lyrics like he did Rakim
@@double2706 True too!!
Facts
That’s a powerful statement
That man is awesome
Two of the cornerstones of hip hop. Rappers around the world owe LL ,Rakim and Mr. Marley Marl a gratitude of thanks.
LL still brings the same energy that he ALWAYS has! Shout out to him🗣️💪🏾🙌🏾🏌🏾♀️😍🖤
One thing about LL is he’s gonna put on a show fr…good breath control 👏🏽
The last 2 years who ever has been over the production of the BET awards have been cutting up. This is real hip hop at its highest. I can't do anything but smile while watching this
Definitely agree!
Yeah
Fat Joe has been a consultant for a few years now.
Anybody notice a difference in stage presence, delivery, & performance between this & sm of the other newer acts? Showmanship! Its different!
yes a HUGE difference.
Alot of the newer acts will disappear in a year especially the women..... too much soft core porn not enough substance.... nobody is buying there albums and they cant even sell out shows, no classic albums, just a quick pay day, here today and gone tomorrow
tempo. It's not rushed.
Let's just be honest most of the new artists probably ain't been grinding long enough it shows from the content of their music, from the way they record,down to how they perform that's why hip-hop is dead, this microwave music don't hold weight compared to artists of the eighties and nineties and earlier 2000s sad.
Jemilli I'm from golden era of hip hop LL,Rakim knows how to move the crowd seen both live back in the days.Unlike trash like Sexy Redd,City Girls please
L L's introduction was absolute platinum.
LL is really a legend!!!!! Hits after hits!!!! We need an award show with all the legends asap!! I wish Run DMC performed
I love the way the audience are reciting the lyrics like they being transported back to their youth.😂😂😂
Yes i ways def taken back with these two
They were dead in that crowd, not respecting the legends...rakim was disrespected by that crowd, plain b.s.
Back when the art form had soul and flavor. What a treat watching Mr. LL perform _Mr. Good Bar._ 1990's _Mama Said Knock You Out_ is one of the reasons why I cannot turn Hip-Hop loose. We all know how Mr. Rakim get down on the microphone. Great performances, fellas. Shout-out to Mr. Marley Marl. The work he put in over the years is simply excellent.
Mr. Goodbar might have been my favorite song they've collaborated on
Facts queen
Listen to the way I slaaaaaaaaay 😂
ABSOLUTE TRUTH!!!!🔥🔥🔥🎤🎤🎤🤎🤎🤎
Now this is real certified and justified Hip Hop. No mumble rap here. Straight rhymes and lyrics. I actually understood every word they said,and this was a live performance. I give this set by the "old school" 2 Thumbs 👍🏽 Up!🫡😎🧐💪🏾🙏🏽
LL IS TIMELESS, THE HIGH KICK AND FULL JUMPING WHILE RAPPING. THIS MAN IS THE STANDARD.
This just made me so hyped! Nostalgia at it's best! LL-G.O.A.T... Shame on all those who weren't on their feet for Rakim! That man is legend! One of the Illest MCs of All Time!
ikr I was so mad like why ya just sitting there like ya don't know who rakim is but they knew who sexy redd was smh smh this new generation don't know what real hop hop is I come from that era I won't be watching this show again people so ignorant
I'm a millennial. Let me just say that ll cool j was considered "old skool" hip hop when I was a kid. I'm a full grown man in my 30s. The fact that he can still rock the crowd like this almost 40 years later is incredible. I'd urge any young person to study the history of hip hop. It's a rich art form. Highs and lows but it speak on our struggles as a black people or anyone who grew up in an urban environment. Every era has something you can learn from it.
Blessings
Well said 💯
It's actually very accepting culture. It's not just black. Its inclusive
@@CheeseGOATEDbut that’s when it got washed down there should be parameters on hip hop it’s almost not hip hop anymore art is inclusive yes but hip hop is trash now
@@cyyrious happy birthday hip hop
LL Cool J!! He's so good! He's been my favorite for years!
Yes!
Yes, me, too!!
It's crazy how a 55+ year old still has more stage presence than a lot of these new artists smh
They are real artists.
They are professionals!
That’s facts youngins sitting on their cell phones and gaming they are their own joke
LL is the. True goat case closed
Absolutely what you said! And, no one has ever come close to dethroning Uncle L... Not even the outstanding pioneer; Kool Moe Dee. Word up, L.L. Cool J is hard as hell! 💥
You can see LL enjoys what he does, he's a professional, he makes sure he gives 100% - he works that stage haardd, he's a true performer, not lazy, never complacent no matter what - definitely the real OG and deserves, the title of The Goat, Icon and legend!
Rakim is also a true hip hop legend & icon...he just smooth wid it...respect to both.
Amazing
man, LLcool J a legend! He killed it!
Yes, he is! Yes, he killed it!!
Everything about this performance was so iconic. It always great to see these two legends graced the stage to honor another Hip hop pioneer. Both of them still have great breathe control for their age. This performance was very needed for new generation, y’all needs to see the blueprint and what Hip hop truly comes from. Both of them killed it.
Hell no! Rakim was disrespected & they were all seated, until L.L. came on stage....that's disrespectful
Sometimes I hate being old but growing up listening to these 3 legends makes it all worth it💯
"Marley Marl Super Producer" - Inspiration for many of us who became DJ's 👏👏👏
Two men in they 50s still rocking the mic no background help really spitting that heat live
I wish LL Cool J would have performed “I Need Love” 🙌🏽
LL is da GOAT and Blue print! LL is like a fine wine as he ages! His Delivery and stage performance proves that he is in a class by himself. RAKIM DA BOMB ! DJ jazzy Jeff is a beast !!! This is Hip hop
The first solo rap artist to go gold 1 2 3 4 and more times. When gold was still a big thing.
Rakim was the pioneer of “Flow”. This culture owes him so much. Instead they’d rather argue chart positions.
Now this is Hip Hop!!!!
YES! Bring this music back! I’m 27 and this is the music I listen too! 90s baby!
LL out here kicking invisible opps. But he has dominated anything he touches. Def one of my all time favs. Like he aging backwards his movies too tv. My guy is that guy. ❤❤❤.
Proud of my guy too
LL is the best to ever do it
Hell no😂 RAKIM WILL DESTROY HIM LYRICALLY, rakim made all of them step their lyrics up...L.L. is commercialized, rakim is the GOD MC
@Giselle_Glam594 Rakim hasn't battled anyone lately. RAKIM IS A GREAT LYRICIST GOD MC. BUT LL IS THE MORE VERSATILE RAPPER. ANYTIME THAT LL HAS BATTLES SOMEONE HE HAS DESTROYED THEM AND DESTROYED CAREERS! LEBRON IS AWESOME. BUT JORDAN IS THE GOAT 🐐 . AFTER THIS PERFORMANCE NIGGAS IS SAYING LL IS A PROBLEM. TALK OF THE BARBERSHOP THE OTHER DAY!
Nobody rocks the stage like LL Cool J. I seen him in concert in the 80s, the atmosphere was unreal.
For me Rakim is up there in top 5 all time with Big Pac Nas & Jay. One of the most naturally gifted rap voc's ever & doesn't even have to try. Living Legend Rakim..!
He needed a standing ovation, like they were all sitting down and acting dead...but L.L. had a whole standing ovation...everybody camera was out 4 him
RAKIM IS THE REASON MC'S FLOW
I'm from the South I'm swiping Scarface with Jay Z, the rest of your list unmovable
I just feel like when we have OG Hip Hop Legends on stage, the audience NEEDS TO BE STANDING UP! Especially at a Hip Hop Award show. Regardless if you don’t know their music word for word, stand tf and vibe out, pay that respect !
ABSOLUTE TRUTH!!!!💯💯💯
period
Respect to Rakim. Silent assassin on the 🎤 mic. 🔥 Dude never had to raise his voice but you felt him.
That LL kick was lethal!
Hip hop in its truest form right here......... its crazy how we went from this to pound town.....smfh
I cant tell how old you are but maybe you only said that because you see sexxy redd on the same stage as rakim and LL COOL J up here right? Smh please dont ever forget Kendrick lamars "to pimp a butterfly album" or this mr.moral and the steppers album. Thats Definitely real hip hop carried into the future....yall trippen 🤨
@@pareeshaslaughter6798 I'm talking about what's being promoted especially from the female side of things since it's so many of them and it feels like they are actually running hip hop....... every music video or performance you see of them it feels like your watching softcore porn.......
I mean for every trina, salt and pepa and lil kim, you had mc lyte, queen Latifah, missy elliot , foxy brown, eve, rah digga, remy martin, da brat
And even then none of those chicks really came off as ratchet......
You always had balance
@pareeshaslaughter6798: "To Pimp A Butterfly" & "Mr. Moral And The Steppers" are only 2 albums. 1988 produced well over 20 classic albums in that 1 single year alone & 1989/1990 it was almost the same. It's hard to get 20 classic albums out of this century alone. I just turned 52 & i cosign what @chasenickles260 is saying. Rap/Hip-Hop went from being a beautiful amazing artform that we called the Black CNN to a bunch of degenerate, ratchet bullshish! Most of these new aged rappers can't sell records or sell out shows. Rap/Hip-Hop is in serious trouble & nobody wants to admit it. Instead i get called a hater & an old head by young rap fans.
Pure hip hop, the skill of word play on a hard beat. I have to shed a tear 😢 , so beautiful.
William Michael Griffin Jr. and James Todd Smith on the same stage??!! TOGETHER!! That there alone as legendary itself!! Iconic hip-hop icons!! 🫵🏾🫵🏾💯🎤🎤
LL killed his performance a true legend 🔥🔥🔥🔥
LL has always been and will always be the main character.
LL COOL J IS HARD AS HELL!!! 😎
I'm so glad I came up during a time of real hiphop
me and you both
LL Cool J really can teach my generation how to preform. This man is just AMAZING!!!!
OG James Todd carried hiphop on his back for a decade. Much respect is due to Rakim who without him a lot of rappers wouldn’t have been inspired to move the crowd. Happy 50th HipHop!
Crazy how underestimated Rakim is 😢😢!!
The Greatest of All Time. Every Favorite Rapper's Favorite Rapper.
I don't know about! MCs during Rakim's era credited him for making them step their game up or go home.
I hated that crowd
Rakim delivered street rap with sophistication and education. None this mumble shiii. LL hanged out with actual gangsters and weight pushers, but the funny thing is: not one time did he ever rap about being a thug.
exactly
See this real hip hop, when a song is over 30 years old and people still rocking it Please bring back real music 🙏.
80s babies we had the BEST ERA IN MUSIC PERIOD!!!!!!!!
True
Salute to Rakim, LL COOL J & Marley Marl for showing the youngstas how to professionally rock a show.
I love the old school vibes forever 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
LL the goat point blank period
Yes he is
LL's Stage Present Is Sick!!!!!!
Yes, it is!
LL ENERGY IS CRAZY
Can't even lie, LL Cool J had a Hell of a Run
80s, 90s, 00s unmatched 🐐
This gave me chills man. It’s just something about seeing our legends perform and receive their flowers while they’re still living. 💐💐💐
AS A MAN WHO GREW UP WITH THESE BROTHERS (VICARIOUSLY) I FULLY AGREE,BRINGS ME BACK TO 84 ALL OVER AGAIN!!!!
@@tonyreid3188 That’s dope! See I was born in 93 but I’ve always had an old soul and loved old soul. I remember when I first got into doing my research on my hip hop I listened to a lot of Eric B and Rakim.
Rakim wasn't celebrated with a standing ovation like L.L. was...DISRESPECTFUL
The OG ll cool j performance was the best of the night. He still got it.
Uncle L rocking bell bottoms and performing Rock The Bells was some deep ish right there! The God Rakim is unequalled!
Rakim is my idol and he's been on a tear this whole year , he even tore up a show for 1199 down in Albany 🎤👑.
But one of all time favorites LL has been playing with fire on stage as of late 🔥🎤..... Nobody from the 80's can f√ck with him on stage right now 👑👏
Rakim is a lyrical aassassin, that crowd was seated while the GOD MC was rapping??? Str8 disrespect
When rap music was clean, topic-driven, and positive. 👏🏿👏🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾
LL Cool J killed it and I know I’m 90s kid but man LL Cool J always had the hits
LL “ I’m Bad “ and Eric B. and Rakim “ Move The Crowd “ those 2 songs made me addicted to Hip Hop!!!
Thank you . L l cool j killed it respectfully. Rakim the goat
Old school hip hop is the best!! Thanks to the pioneers!!
I wish LL had performed "Around the way girl" in its entirety. Crazy how much i love that song. So many memories😊
I still love and play that song out now!! I know how you feel!! 😂😂😂
Rakim! A genius! Props he paved the way he deserves a standing ovation! He sounds great still I love this tribute to the dj!!! This is hip hop royalty!
I nearly cried when i saw dababy and sexyredd opened the show,and then i saw the nominations for the best upcoming artist. I said mann I'll be back later. Thank god these OG's showed up and saved the awards show.
Same...I literally felt the same. But glad I hung in there to see real Hip-Hop on stage.
😂😂😂😂.da baby sexy redd are complete garbage. I don't even look and these generation of rappers no more.i thank God that who will call rappers the old G showd up.rahkim and cool j.
That show is trashy and rakim was disrespected by that crowd
@@Giselle_Glam594 Yes indeed!
I love how the icons got center stage tonight and at other award shows throughout the year in honor of 50 years of hip-hop! This was great, LL is a legend and the So-So Def performance sent me to another place and time!
Whoever is styling L.L. lately has been killing it. Sharp af. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Dam right
Great performance! Can we just throw out hats off to the hip hop legends live band?!! They killed it! And LL’/ stage performing energy is unbelievable!❤
Sad the crowd was sitting. Like the greats should be celebrating by a standing ovation during their performance!!!! Salute 🫡 to 50 years of Hip Hop
Rap never elevated past these 2. The DJing, MCing, actual beats you can dance to. Pure Rap!!
And lyrics u can understand, not that mumble mouth “ rapping “ I don’t knock anyone that’s rocking the mic but when u right the mic pleeeeez rock the mic 🎤….right !!
There will only be one generation of Hip Hip legands, and we witnessed part of that with LL and Rakim. 30 years from now, thier music will still be celebrated while the ones in the audience tonight will be long forgotten.
It's about time Marley Marl gets his flowers on a major scale and of course Rakim and Cool J are the best of the best. Youngins give it up to three icons who paved the way so the current rappers you love today can even eat.
Mr Goodbar almost made me jump out of my seat with excitement - at work 😂..
Hope this performance helps the new generation see what real rap is all the importance of keeping it alive with actual lyrics and story telling. ❤
LL is definitely the Michael Jackson off Rap. This man stage presence is just incredible to watch. I’ve been following and been a fan off this incredible artist Career, his confidence is on a whole other level. I love LL so…….much I hope to meet him one day and just say thank you so…….much for all your contribution to Rap Music and your ability to just be yourself with no apology. I’ve watched him all these years and have learned and taken from him how to be who you are as an individual, he’s definitely a huge influence and inspiration in my life. I also have to give the same credit to Mc Lyte she’s definitely one off the females that have provided the same kind off sentiments in my life that I’ve stated about LL. Much Love and Respect to the GOAT. ❤️🙏🏾💐☝🏾🇯🇲🇨🇦🔥🔥🔥🎊
RAKIM IS THE GOD MC
The Michael Jackson of rap. I never thought about it like that, however, that's a good way of looking at it.
I done watched this so many times LL is a beast on the stage still straight 🔥 and looks good!!
Cool j moving like he 18 😅
