You got to love John Forte's flow on this track. Very underrated!!
"every step tango'd, your beef don't concern me
i'm eating mangoes in trinidad with attorneys"
that's that shit.
@@prodigalsongod Word up. That line has stuck with me for almost two decades. Dope.
Facts!!!! He went deep!
ua-cam.com/video/RDlRMg3SiJ4/v-deo.html🇨🇭🇧🇷🇨🇦🇨🇦💣💥🍻
It's one of main reasons I have been watching this video over and over. He is one slick dude!
Wyclef deserves some respect.. He is so Legendary
Did he really try to run some area just to embezzle money or wever he did. Don't quote me on that, I'm asking
@@ahhwe-any7434 yeah he stole millions from a foundation that was supposed to help his home country of Haiti recover after a earthquake.
The Clinton's family put dirt on Mr. Clef's name to block him from running for President. After what they did to President Jovenel Moise, I can say that Mr. Clef was lucky. Those Democrats are Wicked to the bones.@@ahhwe-any7434
JOHN FORTE MURDERED THIS TRACK! Have you ever heard bars like this!? Just creative!!!
He did too on many tracks on the score album he was on
He's eating mangoes in Trinadad with attorneys...
I agree
It was the delivery. Sickening 😷

And been listening since it came out
Yep 8-17
Yes
Is it just me or did Pras absolutely own the dance floor?
He nailed it!
You can tell by the way he moves that he’s a ladies man...
Hell yea 👍🇹🇹🇺🇸
Yes!
F-ing KILLED it!
Watching this as an adult I just realized Pras came in walking and cutting up the floor like no one's business. Never noticed as young teen when this first came out. Lol
When R&B and hip hop were still fun and creative. My college years were a blast!
This came out when I was in high school
Yeah, 4 sure
You got laid
@@BladeR2049 Slow down 😧😷
@@kenniet7125 Yessssssssss me too
John Forté was destined for greatness; that verse was classic
He a icon all from one verse. ☝🏾
Pras killed it!!! Dance and flowing
Pras killed it with those smooth ass dance moves tho!
Diggin Pras smooth moves man! He's a lady's man fo sure!
I love how they have all the dances from Saturday Night Fever, Beat Street, and West Side Story all rolled into one. Love it!!
Don't forget Beat It.
@@Rob774 True! Thanks:)
and at the end they did some kaputa which is a dance fighting from Brazil.
@@travelingjohn69 yep & also known as Capoeira.

Absolutely nothing would stop us hitting the dance floor when this came on 🔥
Handsome guy
John Forte had flow...he murdered this track
Yessir!! His bars were on point...he had crazy potential, too bad he got caught moving bricks.
+Stephen Blakely ayo i didnt know that and just looked it up... DAMMIT JONNY!!!!
Decarlos Davila
Agreed!!!!!
He was pardoned by GWBush
Decarlos Davila. fo sho
Wyclef music, producing and quality style is so underrated, I swear as a ex musician who grew up in church, I have to listen to his music repeatedly to understand his musical gift, talent and genius ability! I would love to sit and pick this dude's brain! Just an unbelievable gift!
"Say man! The threads!"
One of the greatest hip hop videos of all time
After all these years, from watching this video before junior high school back in the day, to watching this video now, I finally just realized what Pras said. Thank you, good sir.
@@vanbivins4113
ME TOO!!
get's me every time!
This is 100% pure genius, and that crew v. crew dance off is everything.
John Forte's verse was epic on this track!
Too good
Much respect to this era of musicians and meaningful music they put out for our entertainment those years
John forte kid Cudi foreal
Dude it was released in 1997. Not '67. Lol. I'll take 98% of those artists compared to today's. Shoot they're barely allowed to call themselves "artists" let alone musicians!! 😂😂
@@dadomac3805 don't close your mind to the meaningful music being produced today. In doing so you only deprive yourself.

@@gnickthegnome1981 p
Still bumpin 2020! Heard this in the 97 and bumpin back then!
Bussin
2021 now.
🤘😎❤ enough said
Check out the N-Trance version, it is pumping too...
2022 still sound good 👍
I remember back in 97 "The Box" music video channel had this video in heavy rotation back then!
Right!!!! Awe I miss them days
Pras killed that intro onto the dance floor! LMAO!
yeah he did!!!
clark4023 Hell yea he did💯💯😆😆
Damn right
Yaaaaassss!!! Lolo
Not a great rapper but damn he can dance!!! Unlike Puffy who thinks he can...
That choreography at the end is everything 😍
Dont know whats better than the other, Pras's verse or his dancing. Sleek Pras.
John Forte had flow...he murdered this track

The sheer number of HipHop dance styles in this is crazy! Mad respect for putting on that show!
The acting in this video was actually good! Sometimes when rappers try to act in their videos it can be cringe city. And on a side note, Pras got some moves!
🙌
I’m gonna look up where are they now pras
Pras’s voice omg… ❤
Love this , I'm sorry what time stamp you talking please????
I love this version as much as the Beeg Gees version 👏
I absolutely love this...it's timeless😄
What about n-trance?
@@kylepez604 Yes sir ntrance with this and do ya think I'm sexy
Pras walked in the club like yall going to learn today
Lmao classic
Used to own that same leather jacket AND attitude.
Best "feel good" song on my playlist. 🖤
Owned it
He destroyed it!
I never seen that much swag in my life, that shit looked like a masterclass at Harvard.
Mental note:
Get that jacket, walk in satin ‘looka looka looka here’,
One of the GREATEST tracks on the planet 🌠🙏🏿 🖤 WYCLEF FOREVER
john forte is a monster with lyrics...very underrated
This is one of my all time favorites. Whoever made the beat mattered it by remaking this cut from one of my favorite 70s groups. Yaaassss!
Haha. I give Wyclef props. He's saying nothing of any value throughout the entire song, but he's saying every word with such confidence. Sign of a leader.
Much respect to Wyclef, Pras, and John Forte'! When music was music! Wish music could be this good again! The 90's forever!
John Fortè MURKED this
I agree
The dance battle sequence at the end is fire.
Imagine young people deciding to put their aggression into art, that's hip hop.
Greatest dance scene in a song ever
I remember one of my brothers being obsessed with song (repeat all day). When "The Carnival" came out we were all so proud (mainly because Wyclef and Pras are of Haitian descent).
I know I was still proud of all three, and we were hoping L. Boogie was too, lol.
Absolutely timeless - it actually gets better with age !!
You know you're old when you were alive and jamming to the original track in 1977 and this remake in 1997 by Wyclef.
46 with the mind of a 26 yr old who was jammin to the Bee Gees at age 6
I'm 36. 37 in July 😔. I guess as they... Say, either I was "ahead of my time" or maybe just "stuck in the past." Either or
No old just appreciative to be around for both of these masterpieces!
Absolutely
Man everyone eventually "gets old" tbh. Can't do anything about it, and again, don't worry, because it happens to everyone. So even if you can go back in time, why bother, because you're still just going to eventually "get old" at some point anyway. And also at some point you learn that age is basically just a state of mind anyway, so just be young at heart, don't sweat the small stuff, enjoy family, stay busy, and just have fun and enjoy the ride tbh.
facts you speak :)
Pras killed the dance floor DEAD!!🤣
I just heard this like five minutes ago for the first time ever, and it’s one of my new favorite songs for sure.
John Forte had barssssss!!!! This song was fire!! Miss these days
You made Barry Gibb so proud.😎
Maurice & Robin Gibb as well
Made us proud the remake appreciate them all
Makes me proud 😝🙊
Actually they hated having their voices sampled
Pras killed that intro onto the dance floor! LMAO!
Lauryn Hill was the driver in the beginning of the video
ZLillian Giguere wow 😮 never noticed lauryn 😂
Wasn't this around the period that she didn't wanna be around Pras?
Pras has one of the best verse in hip hop right here. "Well you can tell by the way I roll shorty that Imma a ladies man, a business man". Haha. Dope!! Sounds even better in the video since he spits it coming in makin moves on the floor.
Pras is whack smh
Bitch Ass
sit down
llol that line is from the Bee Gees fam
cibida1 Not quite. Lol.
"Well, you can tell by the way I use my walk I'm a woman's man, no time to talk."
- Bee Gees Stayin Alive 👍
He changed it up just a lot. It was a good freestyle departure from the original.
Pras the man! Wyclef one of my heroes growing up. Can't get enough of thisy over 20 yeatrs later
🔥 🔥 🔥 for those that appreciate music....classic beat....Bee Gees 🔥
And a little aidio twos top billin
Still bumping this in 2019!!☝🏾☝🏾🔥🔥🔥🔥😘😘💰💰💰🎶
Ms.Chi-Town Run it oh yes
I almost thought this was odb

Too mennny in the wolf pack
Praz had the dopest dance moves in this video!!! Smooth man.
THE WACK DJ KHALED VERSION BROUGHT ME HERE! THIS IS HOW IT DONE!!!
Me to !!!!
😂😂😂😂😂😂
The look on John Forte's face was priceless in the end. Love this video!
Oh my goodness, haven’t heard this song in a long long time and still know every single word!! 🤩🎶🎵🎤
“Get the CD from Sam Goody”...yet another indication of how old we’ve gotten..
FACTS, I TELL MY KIDS ABOUT SAM GOODY, THEY LOOK AT ME SIDEWAYS!!!🤣😂😕
Sickof GuysnamedTodd not old... wise!
Yes! 😂
Good ol Sam Goody
Lol! Remember Crazy Eddies, J&R music world and Seaman’s furniture!
2922 I'll still be loving this song
we not gon act like pras ain't kill it with the dancing tho..
RIGHT
I dont act.. Saw them live.. 94!!
Nah, Pras killed it by kissing Wyclef's lady LOL
Wyclef murdered his verse first & foremost! Let's not forget! Classic Record! Refugee Camp Allstars! 🌟
Pras came in that bitch like a boss and delivered haha.
sure did hahaha
Hell yea he did💯💯😆😆
John Forte murdered this track! Here for 2019!
Now that's what u call a music video
I’ll never forget Forte’s verse on ‘Cowboys.’ My jaw dropped when I heart that shit.
Ah the good old days in which there was structure to music videos. Probably the best choreographed video in the last 20 years.
What an absolutely amazing rythem, perfect rhymes, and a amazing music video
Heard this on the radio while waiting at the Truck Terminal in Woodbridge, New Jersey. Man o man! Because the jam was so good & the DJ and his in studio host were having so much fun rocking to it...they played it not once, but twice!
Back when hip hop had variety and it all got recognition.
John Forte killed it, he actually had the best verse.
John forte bodied this track and every other track he was on, so slept on
When sampling pays off it pays off so well...
This song was the baddest hip-hop video ever the acting of the characters was impressive 😊😊 big up Wycliffe and pras 😅😅
I love John Forter.......... so much!
This is still an timer best song for me. Plus the video is tight!! Thanks Wyclef!
Being a fan of The Fugees brought me here!!
Mad respect for the Bee Gees for creating the original master piece of this song
I took out my carnival CD and i never get tired of this song . love it.
John Forte always had that smooth flow
The video and tune was BADDDD
This will always be my jam
I miss this version of rap. Come back!
Pras makes the song!
From the time he walked in and shoved the guy and simultaneously giving out the dap, the bars the dancing, even the adlibs, he totally made the video.
Wycleff is extremely talented composer
"Say man, the threads" Love this video.
If I could like this video a thousand times I would, he too much. There's no part of it I don't love
Every step tango, your beef don't concern me/ I'm eatin' mangos in Trinidad wit' attorneys.
Automatically the hardest bars ever.
John Forte killed his verse
Some "beat it vibes" amazing
I love the way Wycliffe pays respect to all the great singers and movie as well as broad way musical I want to pay my respect to Wycliffe I am still rocking to him still and all the greats from the 70s 80s and 90s peace and love to all
this song makes me smile 😃
The dance battle at the end is so ridiculously good. Especially the dudes doing the clasped hands move
The one time Praz killed it.
"I'm more than just a rhymer, you still a small timer" 😉 John Forte verse dwarfed his rap peers. He made everybody in the game look miniscule. Plus he really touched weight.
pras kiiled trhis damn i miss the 90s culture was real
Ilove the creativity in this truck,pras amd Wyclif killed it.It was awesome
Summer 2024 still bumping this, if you don’t dance or bop to this something wrong with you
I remember in 1996 the Atlanta radio station 99x was broadcasting from downtown during the Olympics and a pirate radio station broke in and started playing this and I fell in love with the song
I remember seeing this music video when it was first aired on BET.
Disco Saturn Loves To Do Subtitled Comedies and Other Things 24/7 me too
I first saw this on VH1 Soul back in the summer of 2002
The box ch 96 east coast
MTV the box😆
2022 still here💜💜💜💜music isnt the same anymore
Wyclef is the man. His music is classic.
Shameless brought me here. Love The Bee Gees and it being sampled in this song is perfect.
as in frank gallagher shameless?
@@sambanelly4219 yes
Oh my gosh, I used to tape this off the radio when it played. Loved this!
Damn this brings me back!!!!
