As a white kid (Italian but whatever) my folks would buck at my insistence on jamming the volume to 10 when 3 Feet High ANYTHING was on Yo MTV Raps. Funny, we didn't know racism, we didn't care about social ANYTHING...it was just the best, the music, and the flavor. This track has been part of making it through the 2020's, Covid and all the strife we all seem to choose. Wish we could all just be Buddies. We'd get so much more done positively positive!!

Anita Baker Diabetes took him away back in 2016. It made the last ATCQ album take a shift to dedicate him. One of Queens, New York most important lyricist.
Released in 1988, and I was a junior in high school. I’ll never forget the moment the DJ played this at the dance. It’s 2022 and it still sounds just as good. This is back when music made you feel good.
Rap was rock'n 'round the clock, man. I gets me like a friendly, end-of-the-day Jamaican vibe when I listen to this song. I love Black geniusness put in music. Very upbeat 💯💯💯💯💯
It's so hard to put into words how great this whole crew was back in the day. Being in the yard and blasting this jam on a sunny Friday afternoon before you get ready to hit the clubs later that evening.
....That's the "drag beat",....it was used in a lot of tracks back in the day! ...it pretty much guaranteed a hit track then,...and a lot of artists sampled it,,...Yes,..even "Heartbeat"! It came from "Don't look Any Further",....made by the Great Dennis Edwards (R.I.P.)
Everyone from high school says when they hear this song they instantly think of me.....thats how much i played this song back in the early 90's. My all time FAVORITE!!! #REALHIPHOP
I remember buying this Album just before the summer of 89. I was so blown away by it that I bought another copy and sent it to my boy down south. everything about De La's sound was different and not many people understood then, but they would years later... Pure HipHop...
In the middle of quarantine I close my eyes and drift to the 90's I'm entering a house party and this is playing. Wish I was an adult during this time.
Maybe it's just me, but my focus is on the timeless, relevant and intriguing music and lyrics that we were intrigued and inspired by then, with gratitude now.

I remember walking thru the Slauson Swap Meet, Dec. 1990, has just put some bumpin humps in my 1984 Coupe and needed something to make my truck rattle. I heard this bumping the Swap Meet hard, and they had the shit on repeat! It was the only tape I bought that day, and I rolled out with it on blast! You could hear me coming 6 blocks away, nothing to me can out bump this track, until the Chronic dropped...👊🏾👌🏾💯
it’s a shame you can’t find any of de la soul’s classic albums in any streaming service or itunes due to copyright sampling issues from their original works
Sonic Odyssey it’s actually because the contract they signed with their record company specified that none of their songs could be streamed digitally, obviously it wasn’t something they noticed or just didn’t think was an issue

It's sad when an era gets old and replaced year by year then decades later you go back to realize how dope the old stuff was!!

Great comment right here. I guess we're showing how much older we all are now.
De La Soul, and a tribe called quest. Str8 Legendary!!

De La, Tribe, Jungle, Monie, and Latifah - all great on their own, simply sensational together. Rest in peace to PHIFE
Phife will never be forgotten miss him 😞😞😞😞😞😞😞😞😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭.
Monie Love and Queen Latifah were Shite! It's all about Roxanne Shante!

First track Phife ever rhymed on. RIP dude.
Damn is that facts? I never knew that, how did you learn that

Prince Paul talked about it in the Native Tongue podcast episode I heard.
@@KhariShootYourShot92 If you listen to the song "Award tour" by ATCQ, on phife s lyrics he mentions it.
@@diogoalexandre315 how did I miss that.. that song is a huge reason I’m making music

30 yrs this track still bangs like i 1st heard it back in 89.
Classic.
@777 weezard I never thought i would be saying this about this track 30 to 31 yrs later lol.
Hip hop in its purest form, still 🔥 in 2020.
I may have just discovered my favorite hip hop track of all times 💯🙏🏼
"I like to do my tribal style and jet" 😂 Man you gotta love Phife. R.I.P

"I never let a statue, tell me how nice I am" Classic line, Real Hip Hop
Dopest verse ever
All the great groups I miss them do your thang
It's so hard to put into words how great this whole crew was back in the day. Being in the yard and blasting this jam on a sunny Friday afternoon before you get ready to hit the clubs later that evening.
Smoking a joint on your best friend's porch with the window open and the record player blasting in the living room
Who remember going to a house party and hearing that song heart beat? If your from that era you would know what I'm talking about. 😁 Love this tribe.
Yessss.

This was a collab between numerous artists including De La Soul, Monie Love, Tribe Called Quest. Look it up. RIP Phife.
That "Ethel Mertz / Lucille McGillicuddy" line is still brilliant all these years later.

De la soul tribe and jungle brothers are the best and don't forget leaders of the new school Hip hop at it's best
Ah, yes! TRIBE CALLED QUEST....LEGENDARY!
You mean de La Soul?

@777 weezard I shouldn't have to entertain your idiocracy, apparently your to young to know. And im to petty to break it down for you.
Amen to that, sista!

I love you Rip, tears tears, can't believed u gone
That's great! I love this. I love the funky beat. Love this verses. Love define

This is my jumpppp!! Wow 1989😱I remember when it came out... a lifetime ago 🎶♥️💕
This kicks the sh*t out of all the music being made these days
For sure
True that
yeah, I have no idea why some of these older genres arent being made anymore
Bradley92 celebrate our young ones this genre isn’t even 50 years old yet.
FACTS...REAL TALK!!!
Love this 🎧
Back in the Kid and Play days 🔥👏 2019?😎
This is what hip hop is all about so much rhythm and soul
This is epic old school
This is realley smoth l back this is what we need in 20 20 im dead real
Here come tha hotstepperrrr! Aye!! Love you tribe phife-4life rip my man🙏😌💖✌
Man!! This was for sure to get the party jumping!!! On 1000 for real
I’m so glad my dad put me on to old school hip hop when I was younger🤧💗
When i was 7 this was MY FAVORITE SONG!💖rnb
Shouldn't there a picture of De La Soul for a De La Soul song? This is like having a picture of the Rolling Stones for a Beatles' song. Come correct.
well its more like like if rolling stones did a song featuring beetles and put a picture of the beetles, so its not too bad : )
I guess Jungle Brothers, De La Soul, and A Tribe Called Quest look alike!
Or black beetles, too
Dee soul a tribe called quest and leaders of the new school are the same group
It's Beatles not Beetles...can we get the spelling correct too please:)
CLASSIC!!!!! It was the bomb then and still is. KABOOOM!
It's Friday6/25/2021 and I needed to hear this today, feel good music!!!
WAY BACK OLD SCHOOL
So glad to listen to, but even more prouder to play on my college Hip Hop shows! Peace!
i wish this song was on spotify ):
2021 Babyyyyyyyy. May Greatness live on forever!
RIP PHIFE
Shit .... didn't know he passed away. another legend gone !
