- In the above clip from MC Shan's interview with VladTV, MC Shan tells Vlad about his experience living through the "Crack Era." Shan says he never sold drugs or went to rehab, but he had friends, "Getting shot on the block, going to jail, still in jail to this day." He also goes on to blast corrupt pharmaceutical execs that go unpunished while a crack dealer on the street gets 20 years for trying to feed his or her family. Vlad and Shan also talk about the destructive Rockefeller Drug laws and Shan's personal experience with drug use.

That's what I like about Old School Artists, their honesty, Rappers today tell Neverending Stories when they are interviewed.
BlackJohnnyCage Exhibit A: souLja boy . Lol
BlackJohnnyCage lmao hold on hold on I bet my life that if a rapper came on here and said they sip lean but not addicted you would shit on them
BlackJohnnyCage. wassup
Shayne Douglass What up Fam!!
right be lying
"i got a 400 million dollar record deal" LOL
MC Shan just broke down what it's like to be a functioning addict. All addicts don't sell all their possessions. But they all have the itch.
Everybody addict to something.
Precisely functioning addict
When I listen to him and watch some of his mannerisms, I think it's a fairly safe bet to say he still indulge.
😂🤣
If he would have laid off drugs he would have aged much better
MC Shan: I've been smoking crack for 30 years and I ain't hooked yet!
looool
Still chasing that first high.
😭😭😭
Leave my dude alone at least he didn’t get strung out to where he lost his teeth and shit
I enjoy hearing Shan talk..he keeps it a buck all day!!
Pound-for-pound MC Shan is one of the greatest of all times .
Big facts that down by law album was ahead of its time
Rakim bro ….
@@flatbushmassachusetts8518 Read what he wrote, bozo. He said "one of the".
I love watching MC Shan talk about his life and times in the Bridge. A true Virgo very funny and animated, He really held on to the chair like he was about to go up.
:)))
ive found that humans no matter WHO you are have a natural inclination to escapism and/or chemical addiction. If you aren't hitting the pipe or even puffing a blunt you're jumping for your coffee or even compulsively doing actions to release dopamine which is the same type of dependence, just internally. WE'RE ALL LOST, AND CAN ONLY REMEDY THAT THROUGH EACH OTHER.
true
Check my mixtape bruh how? Meditation!
Check my mixtape bruh Bombay is My go to thing.
Check my mixtape bruh You can add Porn to that list too.Jesus delivered me from that.
+Solotv84 Yes sir! Vipassana is my goto method of meditation.
He was definitely an addict.....Just a functioning addict!
wityostankinass40 aren't we all functioning addicts.
Nell Nell bruh there are levels to addiction
No, he went on and off the drugs. Addicts need to do the drugs consistently, which is what addiction means!
If I wanted it I'd go chip it off the brick lol
I mean, he kind of has a point, all that gear would definitely be gone if he was a hardcore crack addict.
Nah man that's hes denial "I'm not that bad" look at the stuff i haven't sold !!
im still tryna get that planet phatt lol
That old stuff isn't worth anything!
That old stuff isn't worth anything! That's why hey still has it.
J. Spann that shit super old. Lmao
"If i wanted it i could chip it off the brick if i wanted to " lol 😂
I love the fact that he gave Tragedy his props. Salute intelligent hoodlum. Youngest of the juice crew All-Stars
Tragedy is a crack head , but he hella nice
He looks like he's still on that rock diet
😂😂
Glad: you ment Ready Rock... that what my best friend told me it was Free way told me this over dinner at his home cant say where but yeah I feel you
He is.
Stemfast!

When SHAN mentioned Nas, I just knew Vlad was going to get to hating.
tupac shakur lol
tupac shakur 😭👏👌🙌
This was a dope interview, and I mess w/ EVERYTHING Shan was saying, BUT you can still be acting addictively and functioning.
Paris Bostic Down By Law still crushin' my speakers!
Shan will always be a legend and a favorite of mine. He couldn't be fake if he tried.
"America eats it's young" 👏👏👏
So true and sad. We the block Love our young.
Shan is totally correct. Those chemicals were focused on the lower income communities.
During the Reagan administration, millions of dollars of crack were dropped off in the ghettos of America.
@@dustfreequeen5151 bs

😂😂😂
- MC Shan
Snow Ft. MC Shan - Informer. You're welcome
we need more of these Vlad 🙏. Dope shit
good catch by Shan to not tell vlad he just smoked crack a few hours before the interview.
I'm pretty sure Vlad already knew.
We need an MC Shan movie give this man his flowers Shane was my favorite MC Son when he was out
The fact that he included Nicki Minaj lets me know he's the coldest one !!!
I think he is referring to when she was on her mixtape... Not that pop shyt..
My aunt been a Crackhead since 1979 ( Freebase ) and she don't even consider her self a Crackhead she calls her self a "Smoker"
Mc Shan is a real one 😂now I see why Nas respects bro so much definitely a LEGEND
to me dmc was way underrated. the man was as he said" nice". my opinion
Shan strike me as FLAVOR flav
There should be wayyyyy more views than it is this is a classic interview
I love his honesty...
some of the people here judging will be hooked on something before the decade is over
R.G. Stentje that's very true say it again. When y'all point y'all fingers there's three pointing back at you so let's stop that judging so you won't get judged I like listening to shan it's a lot of truth in him and he's funny to I am so glad that he is still here with us love you Shan.
R.G. Stentje most of us hooked on food 🍲
Those that judge be the first to say ‘ I need a drink’. Liquor, Coffee, caffeine, food, it’s all an emotional way to escape for a lot of people.
They already hooked on underachieving, hating and negativity.
Mikey Destruction is Mikey D for those that don't know.
Bang Messiah Mikey D was a beast
He was dope. He wasn't fuckin with my nigga Bang O though.
"My Telephone"
Shan is telling the truth.. in qb he could get crack from anybody.. but he was always the coolest dude.. he's always been slim too
If Shan was never addicted to drugs, Then he must be one hell of a Drinker Lmao... Sound like the hood mechanic Lol....
FIST FULL'A FEDI PRODUCTIONS 😂😂😂😂
And look like it too😂😊
Damn..black people are conditioned to hate each other..On a whtie man's channel, down talking a person...and you guys have so much pride/confidence about doing it too. If you're white, at least it's understandable
Vlad, could you give us this along with Greg Nice's full interview??
We need a Mikey Destruction Interview...
Hahahah lmao "nore started doing that what reggaeton" damn that shit had me craccin
BIG UP SHAN AND THE JUICE CREW ALSTARS 🏆
The first 40 seconds of this video is epic.😂😂😂
OMG look at sleeves of his shirt!!!!
It's snowin' babee..
He's a cool guy.
Some truth in rap - Shan all day
that shirt is wavy af
a dude named King Prince, that's crazy yell
So Real..
CAN'T LEAVE SHAN OUT OF THAT LIST!!![999]
If Shan gift is his curse , if wasn't so down to earth and transparent he would be more revered as one of the all-time elite MC's ever 🎤🔥
My nigga said.. If I wanted drugs I jus take a chip off the whole brick!!! Damn that was a live ... #80's stories🏂
how old is that equipment bro .....#dam
Addicts never admit that they’re addicts.
On the chipping off the brick side of the game..
Kool G Rap: "Yo Shan, you gon get us kilt!" 😂😂😂
He's Right 💯
So I guess his voice changed since recording "The Bridge" LOL!
MC Shan.. Listen sometimes!!!
SHAN YOU MY MAN AND YOU LEFT OUT THE GREAT GEE RAP HOW COULD YOU OMIT THE ORIGINATOR OF STREETS OF NY
Mc Shan tells it how it is,ain't no faking the funk
Prodigy #1 Queens MC.
He's from Hempstead Long Island tho...so technically he doesn't count
Met him at work while at Walmart here in douglasville ga he live out here..
I can't give a top 5 so ill just name everyone who ever rapped in Queens
TheCoryCChannel lol
I would never knew Mc Shan doing drugs unril now can i say he kept it on the low
Word .. you gotta play it like a sport. don't just break into a full blown sprint.. you have to pace yourself or you will get worn out before you go the distance..
70's NY nicknames lmao, big D? king prince?
😂😂😂
He said chip off the brick
Shan a real dude he dnt hold back he did his choice of drug and held his own down an dnt sugar coat nun
Yeah it's always like that with drugs, you chase that high that you got the first time you tried it but it's never the same. Shit is sad!
Made a great point. If he had an addiction that bad, That equipment would sure as hell wouldn’t be siting there lol...And from the looks of those boards....that’s an easy 30k if it’s still in good condition.
True story in that era! It was a serious time in my teenage years and till you got tired of being broke! I love me some MC. Shan, juice crew, LL Cool J, and some Run.DMC! It wasn't no body greater! Mantronix, Just-Ice and T.la Rock was second! Hip Hop peorid. Love them years!
Why do people who do drugs try to mitigate their situation by referring to someone else who's doing drugs? Don't you know that there is no leniency for such an argument because it is irrelevant?
Real cat right here.
So Vlad doesn’t know Mikey D?? Holy crap! How does he have this channel?? Know your freaking history and legends!!!
Dude this man has been consuming drugs for decades and he still on his fucking senses and those 20-something rappers speak like they suffered a brain concussion.
I love shan cause he real with shit alot more shit not just drugs is bad and he not afraid to admit it many lie to your face
Vlad: Yeah, Man, I Feel Ya.
No, Vlad. No the fuck you don't.
If I wanted it, I'd chip it Off the Brick if I wanted to❄️😂🤣
I remember when Shan was on top funny how time fly.
My mans Wayne down in the comments said he had a chain on last video lol who can confirm that
Paraphrase: 🖤 The 100 lbs. that I was and I didn't care...if it's gon happen it's gon happen ❤ word...I FELT THAT
This explains why he went on Facebook and said I broke into his vehicle
shan a funny dude lol
i swear vlad wants nothing more for himself than to be a police officer. Why you like that vlad?
If I wanted it I would just go chip off the brick lol
I used to smoke that shit, freestyle for hours!!! Non stop like I wrote shit, I eventually stopped that shit, I felt I should do it on a natural level, every once and a blue moon, I indulge for recreation, but that's it!!!
All addicts will tell you this. haha. I can stop anytime. lmfao
Dmc was a better rapper than run to me. Run just had the personality
I agree. That rock fucked his ears up. I don't wanna question Shan's expertise, but D was most assuredly nice.
MC Shan used to be a good looking man back in the 80s. I was very surprised to see how old and bad he looks. They say black don't crack, but he broke the code.......
Hey V, why don't you get Mark the 45 King on here? He's been writing for artists since the 80s b-boy era.. Erik B % Rakim, Geto Boys, Enimem, god TONS of artists in the new era. Just got a hunch he would be a good interview, and working with all those names I'm SURE you're gonna have some stories to tell! Bring it on!!
He definitely still coping off the ave
dude how could you ever miss 50 when you talk about the queens..i dont understand
cz he aint old school nice.
3:35 Bow!!! There goes a 7 Gram Chip..
where is lord jamar?
not top at all
Shan need to fall back off that crack. DMC..in the song Raising Hell, killed everything Shan did in his whole career ..."Mysterious so serious I aint no joke, FIRE FROM THE DEPTHS OF HELL AND YOU CAN SMELL THE SMOKE"🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🚬🚬🚬🚬
agreed, DMC was dope
Did they put drugs in the water in America?
Drug dealer: "do u want drugs?"
Citizen: "no thank you"
Spiting the truth
Whitebread raps the tooth
Glad: yeah man I feel you...
Me : No dafuhkUdont!
Shit really, really, real!!!!!! If you seen me, you wouldn't even know, but like I said, don't keep holding on to something, that got you chasing!!!!! Not good, have something on the side to level that shit out!!!!!! Keep a balance!!! When it's over it's over!!!!!!!!! Gotta keep moving!!!!!!!!! Enjoy it!!! Don't die for it!!!! Not bigging this up!!!! Just dropping, some real shit!!!!!!!!!
Kool G my bro.
