Weezy was poppin before this song but it is a classic. I didn't even realize K Dot was the one singing in this song until I just rewatched this music video after all these years.
2021 I just found this song and I get chills every time even thoe I dont listen to anyone new rapper or anyone else besides jetlife recordings and currensy
@@FleepacShakur for sure. Without his success TDE pipe line with label gets shut down and pushed aside as just some “gangbangers who want to be the next bird man”
I definitely thought Jay Rock would have a bigger spot than Kendtick because of this head start. Kind of like how everyone thought Juvenile would be the biggest star for Cash Money, but it ended up being Wayne instead.
Right the two biggest rappers of their generations intertwined in this video Lil Wayne at his Pinnacle and a relatively unknown KDot.. Can u imagine the hunger Dot felt next to a 2008 Weezy
I was on a deployment in the middle of nowhere in the navy and this came on the ships television. It reminded me where I was from, what I left, what i was and where i was headed in life.. #classic #fromthehood
@Gods True Creation right. jay Rock had the luxury to get the spotlight first because he had inked deals with Warner Bros, Strange Music AND TDE at the same time. And he would go on tour with both TDE and Strange camps to promote his albums and singles which set him up for success early on. Kendrick just had the bigger impact once he blew.
For show....I don’t think TDE giving my dog the support and respect he deserve on the label. He put them on his back, way before we knew who Kendrick was!!!!
What his best collabos ever Lil Wayne you did this for the homies from Los Angeles go Lil Wayne appreciate you for representing and looking out for us it shows you the time with Los Angeles while spined
2018 and it’s crazy how far they’ve all come. Crazy that Jay Rock blew up before Kendrick too.. saw them at the Championship Tour and they’re still my favorite. TDE is definitely a humble group of artist.
My boy Paul introduced me to this timeless classic. He had a burned CD in the stereo of his 5.0 Mustang, and every single time we would dip out, this song would automatically start playing as soon as he would turn the key to start the car. It'll forever be burned into my brain, and I'm glad.
Timeless track fr. And one of my favorite Wayne verses Crazy to see a young K dot in the video. Jay Rock really put on for TDE. Hip hop would be a whole different scene without him. Give that man his flowers !
I remember when I bought this song, and then it was the free single of the week on iTunes! Smh, I almost thought there were two jay rock's at one point. Glad he's finally getting his
Once this song was out It was first time I heard of Kendrick, Jay rock, schoolboy q... Lil Wayne really put TDE on the map. For those who don't know where schoolboy q was in the track he was in the remix one of the few rappers in there that stood out.
This is hip hop at it's finest and I wish artist today sounded this good with passion and heart on the mic. And on a side note I have a you tube channel type in Russell Mills May 22, 2017.
Perfect song all around! Anyone given the gift of a Wayne verse was instantly put on the Map, after that it was up to them to stay relevant or fall off, but what a chance Wayne blessed so many with, and he wasnt afraid to spread those blessing out!
aha... that nigga kendrick. Didn't even notice him when I watched this video. I still remember watching it like 5 times in a row. Pretty interesting how showing up works out for those who really want it.
I used to listen to this song everyday on the bus going from the hood to a private college. I had crashed my whip n had to be at the bus stop at 5:45 am to be at class on time! This song made me power thru that for 2 years with my head held high! its crazy more than 10 years later this song reminds me of how far ive come! I now live in the burbs so its a different kinda struggle!
Aurora Carmody Um flow amazing word play and listen to kendricks first mixtape hes voice is almost identical to lil wayne but now he kinda changed hes style but he stil was influenced by him
mr.69 yo moma I have heard his first mixtapes, and I'm glad he's improved because he's way better now. That 'lil wayne flow' was holding him back from becoming the great rapper he was destined to be.

After 15 years this song is timeless. What a time to be alive to see emergence of Weezy, Jay Rock and Kendrick Lamar.
i mean this was peak Weezy. It's truly crazy that this song didn't get way bigger than it did
Weezy was poppin before this song but it is a classic. I didn't even realize K Dot was the one singing in this song until I just rewatched this music video after all these years.
This isn't the one with K Dot
@@ScorpionBlaster45The main version head on this video is Will.i.am theres a version where kendrick sings it though
This song aged like fine wine, classic
Classic
Which part? The great rhythm? The beat that was sampled, the voices?
Black
2021 I just found this song and I get chills every time even thoe I dont listen to anyone new rapper or anyone else besides jetlife recordings and currensy
On me I’m back here bumping this on repeat
Yaah bro it's classic
A lot of people forget Jay Rock was up first for TDE an did his thing. Absolute legend unappreciated IMO
Kendrick was his hype man
@@johnye2210 still is sometimes
Nah for real. Jay Rock need his flowers for real.
He put On for TDE and hip hop would legit be a whole different scene had he not did his thing.
@@FleepacShakur for sure. Without his success TDE pipe line with label gets shut down and pushed aside as just some “gangbangers who want to be the next bird man”
Naw fr
Who else think Jay Rock and Wayne should give it another shot? Uplifting track
Me
They did on the Wayne song 'Bing James'
Crazy how nobody knew about K Dot at this moment and time. You never know who's gonna blow up. Music is so beautiful man
Ikr still look back like that’s Kendrick damn
I definitely thought Jay Rock would have a bigger spot than Kendtick because of this head start.

COMPTON did, he was selling mixtapes
Facts!
This song blew me away when I was in High School. 10 years later Jay Rock finally has a Grammy. No one can disrespect his grind
Wayne killed it per usual but I’m just realizing that’s Kendrick on the chorus
it's not kendrick lol@@p.tfreefree3082
bro I was just saying that I was in 9th grade
Man I’m just finding this song as a sophomore I’ve Alr listened to ts like 100 times this week 😂
@@carmeloflores8159 that’s when we all found it bro I’m 9th or 10 grade it’s crazy how it’s a full circle moment
“I am not a demon but was once a lost soul till I found myself a block away from the crossroad” 😮💨
Bro I literally ran into this comment while he rap over it for me wild
😭
I have outgrown a fish bowl
@@BashiriLewisnow I’m on my feet like a fkn insole 🔥
Wayne's made collabs with upcoming artists to help 'em grow their careers and I love him for that 🐐
It's also a brilliant way for him to stay relevant. All of the artists with longevity do it; Snoop Dogg, E-40, etc.
@@isaacpage9042 that wasn’t the case for Wayne tho dude was the hottest thing ever and it was solely because of him not from hopping on artists songs.
@@707nicky9 this flow from Wayne mannn crazy better than current weezy to me this wayne overall 95 currently he's an 85-90 ish
@@isaacpage9042E40😂😂😂, you gotta be from Cali
2008 was definitely Wayne’s year
2007 2008
2009 2010 was drake
2010 to now it's been currensy in my life . Lol I dont listen to anyone but the jets
Fax he dominated 2008 with Jeezy
Don’t forget based god

now, this is why this is real hip-hop right here!
J rock knew he had to put dude on, so the world can see the diamonds from the ghetto
Bruh...... simpler times 🙏🏽

it's cool to look at this video and see K.Dot before he made a name. Damn. it just goes to show that it takes patience and dedication.
Funny thing is Dot blew up b4 Rock.
And kendrick lamar
@@KingDavid314 this was actually the first song from tde to blow up, and it was jay rocks.
Just say Kendrick or whatever bro we get it you’ve been here since day one.. smh
@Gods True Creation right. jay Rock had the luxury to get the spotlight first because he had inked deals with Warner Bros, Strange Music AND TDE at the same time. And he would go on tour with both TDE and Strange camps to promote his albums and singles which set him up for success early on. Kendrick just had the bigger impact once he blew.
This song will never get old ever .
everyone talking about Wayne and Kdot show some respect for the homie Jay Rock
Definitley.

Wayne
For show....I don’t think TDE giving my dog the support and respect he deserve on the label. He put them on his back, way before we knew who Kendrick was!!!!
lord bring this wayne back!!!!!
that's gillie the king
I remember watching this on comcast on demand videos lol like 2009 damn that seems like a totally different earth in time. Miss them humble days mane.
LOL Ab-Soul on the billboard at the end! .. TDE came a long way! They came from the bottom, and NOW they're really on top!
laoznikka this is actually strange music because tde couldn't afford this album at the time
4 years later still top dawg!
this is a classic song in the sense of its timeless and it will still be good in 10 years. good job jay rock keep doin what you're doin
You were damn right.
Crazzzy still good
True

We Knocking this in the Barrio too. Jay Rock is a Real one.
The feeling this song still gives me, almost euphoric. And the camera pans to Kendrick. This is it❤️
I can relate this song is a classic
Euphoria lol
@@C.2.1 LOL ironic right 🔥..
One of Jay Rock's best records still sounds good today
The first time I seen Kendrick years before he blew
This song should have won a Grammy
💯💯
the face up of hip hop at the time of the video (Weezy).. the face of hip hop now (k.dot).. man how times change
Quiksandd9 Yup

@@tropical99132024 and it’s still relevant 😭
We can't deny this video is real hardwork
Holy shit i remember watching this video as a kid and just thought that random guy was a random guy never thought that was king Kendrick
Omar Zap he is just a rapper not god wtf yall issue
AR$3N Called him a king not our holy father
Omar Zap Ab-Soul is also in there, at 3:46
Omar Zap kendrick was originally on the hook too
you guys with the king Kendrick shit is so annoying
Both killed it but Wayne jus gave the song soo much soul 🔥 🔥 🔥
Jay Rock should make a comeback in 2018! Track is still fire nearly a decade later
Gah damn this beat is addictive 😭
Here to see young k dot🎉
1 of Wayne hardest verses emotion and pain leaking thru this track
What his best collabos ever Lil Wayne you did this for the homies from Los Angeles go Lil Wayne appreciate you for representing and looking out for us it shows you the time with Los Angeles while spined
check out dear lord - he reused the lines on this track
@@cube5884 ah word haha
@@cube5884 He reused one line, not "lines". You're acting like he reused his whole verse lol.
One of his best verses I agree
WEEZY SNAPPED ON THIS!!! COME BACK WEEZY
Love how Kendrick came back here for the “not like us” video 🥳🎉✊🏻
One of the hardest videos ever, right when I first saw him take out the Cd next to the mailbox for the first time I had huge respect for J rock
My big homies
2018 and it’s crazy how far they’ve all come. Crazy that Jay Rock blew up before Kendrick too.. saw them at the Championship Tour and they’re still my favorite. TDE is definitely a humble group of artist.
I remember those days man. Anyone who grew up like this or currently lives like this keep your head up. Don't be ashamed to leave that place.
Love this this song is a classic brings back that edge or motivation! IF YOURE READING THIS KEEP GOING CHEST OUT CHIN UP
Beat is so fire that my ear got a 3rd degree burn from hearing it.
same
Cool & Dre production
One of my favorite weezy verses 🔥
WAIT wait wait.. How did Jay get a Wayne feature and not instantly blow up?
You just probably didn't know about jay rock !
It's one of those things were the label had a single from Rock but never pushed it to the mainstream. And that made his album pretty much flop
how did you not know this song ? this shit was hot in the day
+1snoopz actually mtv did this was jam of the week when I was in 7 th grade I remember
+1snoopz nigga no one watches that shit anymore
Jay Rock should be way bigger. Salute from Ireland 💯👍👌🍀🇮🇪
This song got so much meaning to it I feel everything they are saying
My boy Paul introduced me to this timeless classic. He had a burned CD in the stereo of his 5.0 Mustang, and every single time we would dip out, this song would automatically start playing as soon as he would turn the key to start the car. It'll forever be burned into my brain, and I'm glad.
you would've thought that jay rock would be the first to blow from tde and not kendrick
He was....there wouldn't even be a tde without jay
young stunna exactly. kendrick will be the first to say that too. jay gets mad respect
RIGHT!!! THIS 🎵HIT GO!!!
young stunna i meant as far as album sales, more recognition, etc.
+JUST A NIGGA ye he blew up first just not as hard, he got the ball rolling.

I remember listening to this song as a kid and heard someone bumping it so decided to look it up and damn so many memories
Jay Rock isn't unknown! Black hippy's are the business. They just need more tunes.But collectively the music they make stays on you.

jay rock respect my nigga 🐐black hippie end of an era😥
The song that started TDE empire
Factzzz
weezy was the best during this period. Kendrick learnt a lot from him and now he one of the best rappers.
True dat kendrick sais he was influenced by lil wayne!
What could lil Wayne possibly have taught the best rapper alive right now?

Back when Wayne made most songs he was on including his own a hit.
