Yo! People weren't ready for these 2 white NYC dudes spitting in a lyrical flow, way ahead of their time you go back to those days Nobody was sounding like them
Um...I'm 53 and I remember them coming out right after Beastie Boys, but I rocked with them too. You heard the hook "What's the time?" is a Beastie Boys hook. Make no mistake 3rd Bass and MC Search is STILL the MAD SHIZZLE
@@damionalbarr7961 3rd bass was spitting complex bars, total lyrical style and nothing like beastie tho I loved them in the 80s, that's what I'm saying
I Remember when 3rd base came out. I was a metal head (still am) and they grabbed me. Loved the hooks/beats. Beasties started as a joke album , I guess punk music wasn’t working for them until they created originality and history.
I heard the song before I saw the video, loved the beat and the flow. Then when I saw the video I was like, "Yo, these dudes are white!" Shit is still dope to this day.
@@lobotomyscam1051 Geto boys was far from wack n yes they did make NWA seem like a pg rap group at the time but only people from new York call geto boys wack but it's NYC rap that's wack
I remember seeing these cats in Word Up magazine, wearing gold rope chains. I was like, who are these white boys? They seemed legit, so I bought The Cactus Album and have been a fan ever since. They are the real deal. Word to the Third!
I discovered their music about a year ago while deep diving into 90s hip hop and I was blown away by the beats and just the whole general production on their music. Insane for that time no?
As someone who grew up in this era I can positively tell you THESE GUYS WERE TOO FAR AHEAD OF THEIR TIME. The hip hop fanbase wasn’t ready to accept and give a white group their props unfortunately. Had they come out around late 90s early 2000s , we’d be talking about them in the same breath as Eminem, Jay-Z. Pete Nice was cold as hell with his craft and Serch was so highly regarded that HE WAS ASKED TO GHOST WRITE FOR RAKIM!!!! How INSANE is that?!! Imagine the shock/ backlash if it was known that they wrote for the man who is widely considered to be the greatest lyricist of all time before Tupac and B.I.G?!!! 💪🏾🇺🇸🔥🇺🇸🔥🇺🇸🔥✊🏿
@@lacarnwilliams7551 Hank Shocklee and Eric “Vietnam Sadler with Chuck D as the bomb squad were incredible!!! They produced so many classics!!! Most people only think of their work with PE but don’t know that they produced Ice Cube’s first solo album, worked with Jazz musicians and even did remixes for Ziggy Marley 💪🏾🇺🇸🔥🇺🇸🔥🔥✊🏿
@Lashawn Barber Barber not really. This was my era and I was big into rap , hip hop , ect. Back in these days the people busting these lyrics were looked at under a microscope. The word "Poser" was just coming out and most rappers were speaking about the streets the came from. I think the fact that they were a couple of privileged Jewish kids coming from wealth hurt their images. Personally I think if you can rap and it's good then it shouldn't matter if you're from Mars. But I think that's why they really didn't get over. But despite all this they were definitely popular when they came out. They just didn't last like Dre , Snoop , Rob Base , KRS1 , ect
Nah...they weren't very good. That's why they went nowhere after Cactus really, which itself, was only a decent record. And their music and style REALLY doesn't hold up at this point. They were trying WAAAAAAAAAY too hard to convince people they were something they were not.
I love 3rd Base! My friends and myself would run home from school to watch "Video music Box" and 3rd Base was apart of that Golden Era/Age of Hop-Hop! Miss these dudes!!
"Video Music Box" I remember that shit! Your talking about that TV channel where all the music vids were dial-in requests? I remember requesting songs I liked (or waiting til someone else did) and getting the tape recorder ready so I could make my mix tape! Haha....no MP3 type of shit back then!
Lol Pete made his dad Rob the school for 50 grand to help him survive when pete got arrested and owned mad money on taxes and fraud for selling fake baseball item's. He always been a loser after leaving 3rd Bass he was so smart and educated but never got over being famous the lil bit he was or making that fast show money, refused to get a normal Job he could have been a collage professor since he graduated from a great college as an English major but his ego.... He opened a baseball shop upstate and half the shit he sold was fake he admitted it he should have stayed In the game like Serch.
@@anthonyarcanumsanctumregnu9551 damnnnnn I couldn’t help but laugh every time I saw him wearing his funny suits but I didn’t know he took it serious🤣🤣 thank you for explaining
3rd Bass one of my fav groups of all time. Still bumping them in 2022 and on... they are Very underated and unappreciated! Rip Zev Love X aka MF Doom and his brother DJ Sub Roc!
I saw them live in Chicago. It was the best sounding rap show Ive seen. The bass was boomin, music was loud, but you could hear their vocals clearly. Very professional.
This was my 2nd album (cassette tape) purchase back when I was in grade 9! My first ever purchase was Rob Base & DJ E-Z Rock’s It t’Takes Two. Bought both from my former employer, Towers Department Store. Feels like a lifetime ago!!!!
3rd Bass’ underrated status is one of hip hop history’s biggest crimes. They were both a solid and pure lyrical group. Stepping to the AM is one of favorite songs of all time
@@Twan1985 As a White man from NYC who has been a Fan of Rap music and a part of Hip Hop culture myself since 1986, no offense should be taken by your comment fuck these soft cats Pete is that Smoothest white man in Hip Hop History Period!
I'm 48 years old now.. feeling old when listening to this now, had this tape back then, 3rd bass was so cool when they released the cactus album, damn.. no great rap groups these nowadays, back then it was Ultra Magnetic MC's, EPMD, jungle Brothers, BDP, Big Daddy Kane.. -sigh- God I miss these times... #wannagoback
And the second Album was just as Dope two of the best albums of all time. Pete was so Lyrical and book smart being an english Major in collage he uses words a lot of folks don't understand today lol.
3rd Bass is not underrated. They were corny. Search gets props for bringing Nas to the forefront but that’s about it. They look corny, dances were corny, beats were weak. You couldn’t quote me ONE dope bar they spit, let alone an entire verse. They were a white parody of Kid n Play. Just because they remind you of “back in the day” let’s not act like people were feeling them back in the day - we weren’t. Just like we clowned The Fat Boys and people today want to act like they were dope. 😂
1st time I seen this video on "rap city" .....i was so blown away by his flattop i told my mom! 😂....her response - " boy please" lol....serch dancing his ass off.... these was the days 👍
Pete Nice is no doubt the coolest white Rapper thats ever been in existence. He hung with Xef luv and got snapped in photos with all sorts of rap legends throughout his career. The Minister of Mojo got my vote fo shosho.
I don't know how anyone who lived through this time and looks at the country now could say things have gotten better. It's been a long steady decline since like '97.
Dam, the late 80's to the mid 90's was the true golden age of HIP HOP!!! Everyone from 3rd Base, Main Source, Bahamadia, Brand Nubian, EPMD and so on. Dam I miss those days. Thats Hip Hop,
These were the days! MC Serch is not given his props enough. Not only has he left a legacy behind in hip hop but he is responsible for introducing other hip hop talent to the world. Nas, MF DOOM, etc The Golden Age. Even when you made a song bullshitting, you had to come lyrically correct!
+Speed Knots I think they get confused on who Pete Nice was! LOL ....Kid Rock is not Pete Nice....I know it's been a long time society and you may not remember....but yeah, Pete Nice is that Kid Rock they are talking about. 3rd Bass is the best white guy/group ever in hip hop.
I remember “ 3rd Base “ videos on “ Yo’ MTV Raps “.. I was born in 83 but raised in the 90’s lol . They are so slept on & so very underrated and under appreciated in my opinion . True MC’s 💯 Take Me Back 🫡
I played their album constantly!!! I haven’t thought about them until today. I had to find this. It was useless to think about color. Hip hop shouldn’t care. Sooooo many great songs on this album!!!! I forgot about it! Damn!
From listening to Serch interview with Vlad and saying he challenged Hammer to a dance battle i couldnt believe he was that good but after looking at Serch performances that man can dance
I remember when I first saw 3rd Bass i was watching Showtime at the Apollo and they was supposed to go to commercial but the beat started and out jumps these two white guys who ive never seen and they wrecked that shit. Coolest white rappers ever
3rd bass did rock the Apollo, there is probably footage of it on a vhs stuffed in my mother’s attic somewhere.. the old lady looked like she had an orgasm!
The song that I was introduced to 3rd Bass was the song "Pop goes the weasel (1991)"! Loved the fact that they sampled Peter Gabriel's "Sledge 🔨". I have the 1991 album "Derelects of dialect". CLASSIC album 👍!

And this is real hip hop
I remember being blown away when I first saw the video. White cats spittin real hip-hop?! Classic joint right there.
these guys are seriously underrated in hip hop history.
they were not at all...mc serch played both sides...owning the label and performing
Some people think Eminem was the first white rapper who did'nt suck. They need to know these guys.

Happy Birthday, M.C. Serch! He's steppin' 2 da a.m. on his birthday 2day.
Yooo!!!!! That's hilarious. I listened to this song a billion times and never caught that... His first words were ""it's the other man"...
3rd Bass first two albums are brilliant.
Cactus Album & Derelicts of Dialects. Big. Huge respect to MC Serch, Prime Minister Pete Nice & DJ Richie Rich.
Petrol, you let go, the wax for the new jacks
To dwell upon your steppin on the trigger as the tune smacks.
DAMN I STILL GOT THIS "TAPE"!
I was so hyped to hear Serch on the radio on Detroit in 2005.. one of my favorite MCs.
An absolutely awesome time in hip hop!!! If I had a Time Machine, this is where I’d be!!!!
"To down grade the weak as my lyrics tend to"
"Snatch up and smash the mic until daylight."
Pete is something of a poet.
Say what you want this was NYC culture!!!🗽🗽🗽🗽
The best hip hop single that the whole world has completely forgotten ever happened. Seriously.
I agree. I've listened to rap for 30 years and I've come to the conclusion that this is my favorite beat of all time. Perfectly crafted.
The whole Album consists of dope beats,variedly und Full of fluffinesse😀
I know right
I had this cassette tape, and I wore it out.
That's a Bomb Squad beat too!
Totally different voices style, blended very nicely.
3rd Bass one of my favorite duos of all time I hate it when they broke up they were so Dope.
3rd bass! Dope! they would smash today's rappers
From listening to Serch interview with Vlad and saying he challenged Hammer to a dance battle i couldnt believe he was that good but after looking at Serch performances that man can dance
You trippin, serch looks like a goofball dancing. He should have stuck with his strong point rhyming.
The Swag of Pete Nice and Serch hightop Fade!
'SHOWTIME AT THE APOLLO' is WHAT BROUGHT ME BACK to 'THIS' JAM 'TONIGHT', and I HOPE that ALLaYALL are STILL LIVING and DOIN' ALRIGHT!✌🏽💜
Bought this cassette, back in '93. Hands' down, this is their best song. I keep replaying this one.
Bring my 80/90s back! What a time 🔥😎
"You ain't my nukka'
lmaooo yoooo🤣🤣
I remember when I first saw 3rd Bass i was watching Showtime at the Apollo and they was supposed to go to commercial but the beat started and out jumps these two white guys who ive never seen and they wrecked that shit. Coolest white rappers ever
Is there footage of that anywhere?
no that would be the beastie boys -why?because they were themselves and still awesome
3rd bass did rock the Apollo, there is probably footage of it on a vhs stuffed in my mother’s attic somewhere.. the old lady looked like she had an orgasm!
Yes!!! Quite true. I stayed up late for that. Still remember that!!!
Remember the first time they were on the Apollo they had got booed. You referring to the second time when they came back and did step into the a.m.
The song that I was introduced to 3rd Bass was the song "Pop goes the weasel (1991)"! Loved the fact that they sampled Peter Gabriel's "Sledge 🔨". I have the 1991 album "Derelects of dialect". CLASSIC album 👍!
