Saw this back in the 90s on MTV while living in Guatemala, I was 13 years old, now I'm 35, still in Guatemala and still digging this song. 90s hip hop will always rule
It was a energy. It got into your ears, brains,feet and soul. You stepped into union square or Latin quarters....the beats got all over your clothes. Hip hop was fashion. Us men didn't wear sus clothing
I been having this convo a lot recently, The 90's had the best sound and and all the MC's took pride in their lyrics. Not to take anything from the 80's but the 90's took it to another level.
@@lezlethal damn you actually chill wit people who recognize that???? YOU LUCKY!!!!!!!! I've been stuck in this gay ass state called Florida where hip-hop is almost non existent.

Large Pro can be defined as a Top 10 Hip Hop Producer. edit: What sets him so apart from other grand masters like Pete Rock or J Dilla is his extreme positive energy and he is also extremely skilled on the mic. I love this man.
Serious legend, blessed to have grown up with tracks like this.... Never had a basement, never had a attic, only an apartment where I forever had static. 🥺🌀💓
Lol back in 96 when this drop I use to listen to flow and voice tone only but without analysing the lyrics being a big Wu Tang fan I thought this was Inspectah Decks solo joint I was so excited. Then once the video drop. I was like wtf? But the song is mad dope. I definitely did my homework on large pro and main source shortly after. Extra p one of the best producers of all time

Hip-hop's legends and pioneers all saved their methods of rhyming within two books they all got interviewed for: *HOW TO RAP* and also *HOW TO RAP 2*. Pretty much everyone you can name was involved in making those books.

Hip Hop has so many JEWELS that some of them go unnoticed or forgotten about, until someone mentions them and Large Pro is one of those JEWELS. Just to reiterate on what everyone is saying, yes he is very underrated, and how can you be responsible for finding so many HOT KINGS and not be consider an intricate part of Hip Hop.
I remember when I saw this as a jit in the 90s on those music channels that only played the music no video and I thought Large Professor was just a artist before I knew he was a producer. I remember not being able to find it and waiting again until I heard it or seen the video on MTV... The days on 3 16s on a was a great time..
This shit went hard body in 96 on the underground scene like true quality I have nothing bad to say about Large Pro this nigga had always put out true hip hop of the highest degree accompanied with his signature beats and original rhyme. Large Pro is like Peter Rock great Producers who can actually rhyme and write their own shit not like P doody I mean P diddy
I can still smell & remember the vibe in 9-6 (helly hansens, Hilfiger cologne, wally boots & dark weed) when I watch this joint...long live boom bap hiphop from the 90's, the best era our music ever produced
0:37 I like this line here "Put it through the S-950 then stretch it". Ive listened to some of the samples LP has used on some of his songs and the distortion that can come with using such equipment (with proper sampling) cannot be emulated by a computer or by a different method. (It's the method for producing real 90s-style hip-hop.) For instance, the song M.A.R.S. contains a sample off of the song "Pussyfooter" by Jackie Robinson. The strings sound completely different than the original Jackie Robinson record though.
yeah im 20 btw but age doesnt matter all i do is listen to music new, old hip hop rock reggae from portishead to pete rock n from j dilla to the police.... when i was 7 my cousin gave me a waterproof walkman with cypress hill tape in it since then(13 years ago)ive been not just a hip hop head but addicted to music
un tema clasico...en la era dorada del hip hop....donde toda creacion era exelente.....actualmente large pro sigue representando..jaja..con canas y todo..jaahaa
Happy Bornday to the legend. If you want the essence of this beautiful culture we call Hip Hop, you've come to the right place. Large Pro forever! #HipHopForever
"And I'll concoct something ill for real Come into my laboratory where you can't stand still" Remember this from a Stretch tape from like 96 and it had the Marley Marl version of LA LA. Porn Theater Ushers used this in Me and Him (check that out and thank me later)
This song is mainstream? That's surprising to me because the first time I heard of it was on a college radio station. That station was the only station playing this song. I think I remembered seeing the video though, but compared to most mainstream hip-hop videos at the time; it must've received limited play. I only saw the video once.
Curtis Pea It could have been mainstream...if given the proper push. People were anticipating The LP ever since Large Pro went on Tribe's Midnight Marauders album telling them to "buy the album when I drop it". He was getting some burn with this and "IJussWannaChill", leaving people thinking the album was finally gonna drop, and then....NOTHING. See, Silvia Rhone was running Elektra Records at the time, and if you didn't have P-Diddy-level Hit-potential, she wasn't fucking with you. Pete Rock was also going through the same thing, as she stood in the way of his InI project as well. Both albums wouldn't get officially released until early 2000.

@@путоелкелолеахд keep searching bro, hiphop is more than music 🙌
@@ImmortalHipHop290 yesssirrrr
There's no-one else that could be Nas's mentor. Respect real hiphop.
Unbeastable Nas says it in his last line of “made nas proud” , which was a song directed to J. Cole. I think that’s what he’s referring to.
It's a toss between LP and MC Serch
@Jonathan Soko I always heard Serch was a mentor, but fuck it it is what it is
Now y 5 seconds, i’m going to listen a Nas LP from 93 from enjoy music and “ analyze “ i’m 100% sure it’ll be a genius album
Hip Hop Don't Stop !!!
You just can't replicate that grimy, 1990s New York sound. The minute the beat drops it just screams New York........so distinctive, so good.
Shit, maybe you can’t but I can.
But for real this was a very unique time in music and I can appreciate that. Definitely inspires what I make today.
It was a energy. It got into your ears, brains,feet and soul. You stepped into union square or Latin quarters....the beats got all over your clothes. Hip hop was fashion. Us men didn't wear sus clothing

I miss this 90's sound..best era so far.

From the era when people took pride in their craft!

Moe Anderson yessir
Moe Anderson ive had this in my favourites for like 7 years time to relive some memories
So am I. This joint is sick like the virus!
Yes
Jan. 2021 checking in. It’s still dope and the pandemic still isn’t over.
Large Pro can be defined as a Top 10 Hip Hop Producer.
edit: What sets him so apart from other grand masters like Pete Rock or J Dilla is his extreme positive energy and he is also extremely skilled on the mic. I love this man.
No doubt!! He's my second favorite behind Pete Rock!!
*5
Large pro can be in the top 5. Pete rock is my #1 favorite dilla is second havoc is third premo is fourth ans large pro is my fifth.
@@trentyates418 solid list
The Beatnuts are my favorite producers
This shit was bumping in the old school lowered RWD Toyota Corolla 1.8s and Datsuns, back in the day.
Serious legend, blessed to have grown up with tracks like this....
Never had a basement, never had a attic, only an apartment where I forever had static. 🥺🌀💓
Bring the 90's back.....
I hear Nas, Premier, Pete Rock & others. Large P is a pioneer.
who cares just enjoy his flow
Wait a minute i think Large P is not better than Pete Rock ...🙆🏽♂️
@@tshegofatsosekhabi9085 he is saying that Pete was influenced by large p
Premo pete and large pro are my favorite beatmakers.
1996 I'm hearing this so is my son so will my grand kids.Mad scientist beyond 2021 ETERNALLY.Happy holidays everyone.
Underrated track, Large Pro sounding sharp as usual.
Live from Guatemala from zona 14
I went looking for this album back in the day. I'm extra P! They kept bringing me master P. That's when hip hop started drifting away....
...
R E A what album?? this song was never on an album.
@@titsticklerthompson981 its on "the LP"
Its such a shame to see that some mainstream influence has negatively affected the rating of this particular piece of Art.

Putain mec ta la classe grave, je kiff!!! J adore ton commentaire, je mettrai une mention pour pete rock et marley marl...👍🫡
Eric B. Era una figura decorativa, quien produjo los primeros albumes de Rakim fue Marley Marl.Eric B. Lo único que hizo fue lavar dinero.
Name another hip hop artist that has this high of skillet at producing and emceeing... I'll wait.......
Ok ok DJ Quik is an exception....
Dat bass line
Yeah this bassline is ill af...
Sampled from David Matthews' 1977 "Sandworms", from his Dune album. 90s hip hop REALLY knows how to source epic 70s disco and funk.
Why this guy not considered as a great rapper is beyond me... great track
The opening words say it all. NEW YORK CITY 1996... Definitely thee BEST TIME and BEST PLACE for hip hop... EVER.
This Is one those Tracks I come Back to every Now and Then Jam out To.. 95 Baby. Real Hip Hop Never Dies
Hip-hop's legends and pioneers all saved their methods of rhyming within two books they all got interviewed for: *HOW TO RAP* and also *HOW TO RAP 2*.
Pretty much everyone you can name was involved in making those books.
Ahahahaha whats written
i miss the 90s.
How can a classic like this get dislikes?
There will always be dickheads to dislike anything...
Because this version suffers from horrible quality.
newbies
I like the quality. I feel like it adds a little flava.
It's youtube.
I remember him & MC Ren both had songs come out at the same time called Mad Scientist. Large Professor produced MC Ren's version, too.
Both versions are mad dope
Great producer, equally great emcee
If you don't know this as a hip-hop head you might as well get some slapping
The rapper Lord finesse looked up to
In return lord finesse was the rapper who big l looked up to and crafted his style after
The beauty of mc influcencing one another and in return we get legends
i still cant get enough of this song
This man is 1 of the most underrated MCs & producers in hiphop! Superb...
The large pro gave my homie props on a beat he made. Props from a legend
Hip Hop has so many JEWELS that some of them go unnoticed or forgotten about, until someone mentions them and Large Pro is one of those JEWELS.

There were two songs called Mad Scientist, one by The Large Professor and the other by M.C. Ren. Both are dope .
I'm 37, now I know what he was talking about 😁back in 96, I was like" what the hell is an s950 and what is all that fancy equipment 🤔😂
😆😆😆😆 That's funny!! Yeah the Akai S950/S900, MPC 60, SP1200, ASR 10, ASR X, MPC 2000XL, MV 8800, etc!! All great machines of their time!!
@@Sinosure classic pieces!!!
@@facksvillain2296 yes sir!!
37 too and remember recording this video back in `96 on Yo MTV Raps great times!
Incredible flow and beat. They don't make them like this anymore
Large P is crazy thorough. Legend
I had the tape! 90s is MY favorite rap era😊
Rest in peace to my big brother "D"Lyrical...much luv n respect from A Florence District Boy...💔💙🙏💪

You look up 90s hip hop production, large pro is an example along with pete premo buckwild lord finesse havoc and sermon
people sleep on large pro. saw him live around 2009 best set at hip hop kemp imo. just him and a dj, no hype man no breaks. dude is a machine.

I love how the third verse is the first verse
96...Different albuns...Different styles...Too much creativity!!!
"Put it thru the S950 and stretch it" classic sampler + Sp1200
One of the Dopest MC's of all time! Respect the God!

I sweat that 5 panel so hard!!! This beat is timeless 💪🔥👑
one of the most underrated lyricist ever
Nice sample from David Matthews - Sandworms.
SunbeamsSting method man and Redman used this sample also
SunbeamsSting from the Dune movies?
It's a "soundtrack" inspired by the Dune books, the David Lynch film came later.
This guy has to be one of the most underrated emcees in hip hop..
Best producer on the mic
He's always spit beautiful bars! Slick bars! That's Large Pro!
I remember hearing this song back in the day In LA on the wake up show.
Nostalgic. Was dope then and still dope now
Grandes recuerdos !!
Iguales que escuchando beats de dive bajo la voz de Mucho...Echo es simple!
96 was a tight year for hip hop. On both coasts..✌
Why is this not on Spotify damn it
joder por fin lo encuentro con una calidad aceptable en el youtube!
Gracias por la subida man
Some people will never understand .
Reminds me of Rakim "When I B on the Mic" the video, hip-hop gestures, and most important, the DJ Premier scratch sound
Don't mind me...just a hip hop head/aspiring rapper getting some much needed inspiration👍🏾
The letter P in Extra P should stand Perfectionist.!
Crazy favorite song mad scientist xxl P
All Hail.....Large Pro The Great!!!!! 2020
Sounds dope in 2018
LOOKING FOR THAT SAME RAIN JACKET AND CAP COMBO RIGHT NOW IN 2022!
This beat is the cure for the covid 🔥
There's somethin I love about 90s New York hip hop. I can't tell what it is exactly, there's just somethin really special about it
classic!!
I hope to be a rap legend like this someday.😊❤

People dont know about Large Pro. He raised a generation of rappers. Probably my personal top 5 producers behind Primo, Rza, Diamond D, and Havoc.
Again....god bless! G's laying it down
la epoca dorada del rap siempre seran los 90s uno temas increibles

@tassimo12345 Its from an early album called THE LP that was never released back in the mid 90's but I think it was re-released last year.
Large Pro is a Pro when it comes to the flow!
