- Jemini The Gifted One's break through single release in 1995 . Produced by Organized Konfusion the song features the sample from "Ain't That a Bitch" by Johnny "Guitar" Watson. "Funk Soul Sensation made noise on college radio and underground mix tapes.

This is one of the greatest hip-hop songs ever made... an absolute gem..
Do you know about "50 MCs in a cypher"? His best track imo
This is when NewYork wasnt taking no L's back then
dude i from the chi and even me and my team of backpackers was loving new york running shit.
when big l died died a pecace of hiphop cuz of jay z and many other that stopped to be reall
or not?
Homie where u from so I can tell u why wherever u from takes more Ls than NY ever has?
@@HipHopAintDead718 Tekashi 69 and Cardi B?!. NY has completely L'd, and it's hearbreaking💔
Nah bro. @Lumithell
Jemima real one. Met him years ago in New York and he was official. Saw him again performing in Las Vegas at the Palms Hotel, when he saw me he gave me a shout out. My dude..... EARLY.
It's very unlikely that an algorithm brought you here. Hella underrated joint right here.
Real HIP Hop golden age this is a Classic
I was 13yrs old when I saw this on BET 🎤🎤🎤🔥🔥🔥
July 2024 and still got his scars and pain album on spin❤
20 plus years later this joint still knocks like it just came out!!!
25 years later, yes. Timeless. Thank You, Prince Po.
@@steeltownbrown52 Absolute Facts Fam!!! Medicine Men though!! 🙌
For real they don't make them like this no more raw skills 💯
his verse describing his journey as a sperm cell through his fathers D and into his moms is one of the most underrated in hip hop
Wowww
Pause
One of the few rap songs that makes me wanna clap to the beat. This shit is so hypnotic.
A Kool Keith and Sadat X hybrid.... a self proclaimed Jeckyl and Hyde on this track.... GENIUS
I hear it. Good analysis.
I see watchu sayin
"Wack MC's don't get nothin' but Fahrenheit degrees" is epic brilliance. This is just massive timeless excellence.

This cat was underrated!
This song...along with Rakim’s follow the leader...made rap city old school Wednesday so valuable to me as a kid. It put me on to OG’s. Too much ageism in hip hop nowadays.
That ageism part!
STILL 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥
I've been listening to hip hop for 17 years and I cant remember loving a song so much as this one. Sure, I've had songs accompanying me in different stages of my life (worst come to worst, ante up, some Primo, some gospel rap) but nothing compares to this one. Maybe I got old and my tastes have settled. Or maybe it just ticks well with my persona. Haven't been tired once listening to it. Im just so grateful :)
"To hell with Carlito........do it Jemini's way! That did it for me.
As someone that absolutely loves hip-hop at its core to the point of getting 93 'til Infinity blasted across their chest I'ma go ahead and make the statement (opinion) that this is one of the dopest songs of all time. The lyrical content and insanely mad concept that is two completely different flows, both of which are quite immaculate, performed by a single emcee is absolutely genius on a galactic level. Songs like this need to be carried on to future generations through people that love and support real hip-hop. For anyone that didn't catch it the whole idea of this song and his name are an analogy....The zodiac sign "gemini" has to do with two different people or personalities...hence this dude being the gifted one AND the funk soul sensation. I'm fuckin with it yo this is the epitome of real hip-hop.
well put yo
No doubt, this goes hard AF!
Jay Bernal FACTS!!
I came here to find this comment.
What's crazy is this type of creativity was the norm back then. You couldn't get on unless you sounded unique and came mad creative with it. I remember when this single dropped. I picked it up at the local record spot and thought it was dope, but nothing too unusual. It's hard to understand looking at it from a 2020 time frame, but labels wasn't signing groups back then if they sounded like anybody else. You'll hear stories about that--like how Def Jam didn't sign Nas cuz he sounded too much like G Rap, and so on. That's why you had De La Soul, Black Moon, Ghetto Boys, Cella Dwellas, Wu Tang, Lords of the Underground, Mobb Deep, Pharcyde, Pete Rock and CL Smooth, Souls of Mischief and Del, Red Man, EPMD, Das Efx, Public Enemy, Outkast, Krs One, Ice Cube, MOP, Black Sheep, Fugees, Naughty by Nature, and A Tribe Called Quest just rockin it, like it was nothing. And that's just a small percentage of all the dope acts you had back then. Golden Era indeed!
I remember hearing Brooklyn Kids on Hot 97 late night that was the sh-t!!
90s Rap City. Great hip hop music from everywhere. The good ol days.
This song was impossible to perform without a hype man
Prince Po from Organized Konfusion on the production. This is my joint!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
this single didn't leave my deck for a month
This is the joint!!Hop hop in its essence.You young heads study your lessons..Does not get any better than this.
+Music 101 Mainstream cant fuck with the real flow, if they could, the world would be a much better place without all the fuckery and bullshit swirling us like fly's on shit, i'll be glad when real hip hop flows the streets again and put these wack ass rappers out of business cause im sick of sayin theirs bullshit on the radio. I wanna hear flows not singular words over and over again. True Hip Hop is about literature and intelligence yet these fools today wanna symbolize hip hop with retarded wordplay and downright pointless effort thinkin their doin somethin when in reality they are doing NOTHING!
1995 classic taking it back to when i was 12
95 Was the year !
The year I was made
Been listening to this song my whole life and I just now found out this is one person.
That's the pure genius of this shit!
Still dangerously Dope and Funky 💯🔥🔥🔥💪🏿💪🏿
This takes me back to 88.9 Morgan State University on Friday nights mid 90's!!💯💯
My fellow Gemini came with it on this track. Peace from the Pacific NW coast black tribe.
Yo I'm in the Pacific NW!
Beyond the incredible lyricism, that Group Home sample is just filthy. "So I react with a mic." Fuckin legendary
a rare gem from my childhood. thank you jemini and thank you whenrapcitywasdope
I miss the 90s to hip hop was the shit
This was my shot! Still bangin now! Give props to Johnny Guitar Watson for the sample. Song tittle Ain't That A Bitch!
Brand new to this song via a week ago. The power he spoke into existence by saying: I AM "The Gifted One" let alone the rest of the song.
i think this is a rare instance of where instrumental and rap lyrical genius just seamlessly mesh
Only memories will real hip hop keep alive .
don't matter what era it is, this'll always be phat📻🔊🎶
OLD SCHOOL HIP-HOP RAP JEMINI THE GIFTED ONE FUNK SOUL SENSATION MUSIC 😀😀😀✌️✌️👍👍
This is a mid 90's classic!!! East New York in the house!
man this brings back memories growing up in the dangerous streets of the chi back in the 90's
+soultrip7 man, you're 20 years old
+Harasemiuc Andrei actually,i think i was like 18 or 19 when this came out..
+Harasemiuc Andrei How do you know? haha
I still have the cassette single from when this came out. Classic 90s style real hip hop right here. Dope produced track
Master class in 90s hip hop! 🙌
the Golden Era of Hip Hop The 90's
Damn just stumbled on this after not hearing it for close to 30 years. Man some memories flooding back
I’m the gifted one, this that morning joint rite here💪🏿
Peep the Royal Flush Cameo at the beginning of the video. 💪
My man Z! What up! J.
WhenRapCityWasDope - of course 90's !! ;)
I was listening to that trash they call rap via BET JAMS and had to quickly put this on to bring me back to reality.
That's that real NEW YORK shit!!!!!!
SHIT IS FIRE
This is ONE emcee taking on TWO flows and personas in one song. That’s dope. I always thought the Funk Soul Sensation sound like Sadat X, and The Gifted One sound like Mic Geronimo. It’s like you got those two on the track but really it’s just Gemini the GODfather. 🤔
I was feeling this song back in the day
I was always mad he never got the props he deserved. Brooklyn Kids is eternal in my playlist. 2Ls
I didn't have cable growing up, just radio and mixtapes. Never knew this was 1 person LOL
lol that is great. must have been lots of people in that same boat
I really thought this dude was gonna blow!!! Nic
Classic joint
Love it when he say...🌋"Check it out...baby"🔥🔥🔥
Epic Mayn... 46 people got Style...
You know it's a 90s rap video when you see a lot of homies crowded around one pool table...
That's a great sample.
Well ain't that a b*tch!
Still have my cass-single!
This song was being played on Hot 97, during it's old "battle of the beats" segment. It reigned for several weeks, undefeated before losing to a group from Southside Queens, called the Lost Boyz...Lifestylez of the rich and Shameless...
dope!
What a great song!
Much props for the uploader! Golden Piece like this and diggas uploadin' joints like this is the only one reason I'm on youtube and havin' a great time! THX
N.Y had all the Good Shit
I remember having a promotional copy of this record when it came out.The brother from Wild Pitch Records named Sincere who did promotions there blessed me with the record.I thought this was fire .I thought he had star potential,too bad he didn't see more success as an artist.
90.s ruled any day
I USED TO LOVE THIS F*CKING SONG. I really thought that there were two people. I had the single on vinyl back in the days.
I remember this video G.P. Rock
Back when brothers didn’t need to rap about how hard they was 24:7 but when they was harder than 95% of these kids out now mumbling about they guns and bodies. This was Brownsville 95-it don’t get no rougher-but Gemini’s just having fun rhyming and showing you why he’s the gifted one AND the funk soul sensation. 😎
This song is what inspired Biggie Gimme the loot and DMX Damien song.
Gimme the loot came put first
total 71 BROOKLYN FED BUILDING ON 2nd FLOOR
Minnesota on the beat!!! Organized Konfusion did not produce this track. The intro sample was "For Your Love" by Peter Brown (from the "Do You Wanna Get Funky with Me" LP on Drive Records, 1978).
+Big Stacks Sampling credits on the actual wax beg to disagree. www.discogs.com/Jemini-The-Gifted-One-Funk-Soul-Sensation/release/685506
