#FatJoe
One of my favourite DJ Premier beats and Fat Joe tracks , I know this one word by word !! classic !!
me too bro!! ;)
🙌
It is a tie for me..
Fat Joe and MilkBone ish is real! Dope flows, dope production
🔥🔥🔥
Fenomeno
The now defunct Scratch magazine listed this remix as of the greatest remixes ever
Best fat Joe track ever
This song was more than phenomenal it was a watershed moment. It demonstrated how dope Fat Joe could sound over the right beat and it also demonstrated how essential Premier was in establishing the presence of an MC.
💯💯💯
94! The Year of Premier!
Fat Joe-Shit Is Real
Jeru-Come Clean
Group Home-Superstar
Notorious BIG- Unbelievable
Gang Starr-Hard To Earn
Don't forget Nas - Represent, NY State of Mind, and Memory Lane on illmatic
94... Preem was unfuckwitable!!!!!
This is my Top 3 Premo Beat .
HAWWWWD AS FUQ
🔥
I was going to say top 5 but ur right. I find myself doing this track in my head! 💯 ✊🏾
Yessah..
We had hiphop on lock then....
Hence the drums are also chopped on Jeru's album...it just works
@@jameswomack819 Word!!!! I'd say D. Original by Jeru is definitely top 3 Preemo joint
This got me hooked on Fat Joe back in 93/94…
This is the one me and every Premier fan have been waiting for.
Jeru The Damaja's "Perverted Monks In The House" had the same drum sample too.
Kid Dynamite - Uphill Peace of Mind. Classic break!
True indeed and I'm also waiting for All City's The Actual.
@@al5603 That's dat shit right there...
Fat Joe has been in the game for damn near 35 years!! Gotta respect it💯💯💯
and maintained mainstream viability the entire time. a truly astounding accomplishment.
@@LdotSdot210 Yes, he's even big here in Europe. Fat Joe been an icon.. Global!
That’s why I loved that he got to be mainstream for a while, he put in work
Premo is one of the best hip hop producers of all time. On top of that he knows and remembers his history and been around since the 80s says a lot for his legend status!!!!
This beat sounds like life on wax. This was number 1 on rap city for what seemed like a year.
not the Primo remix tho
@@scienz I believe it was the Preemo remix. If I’m not mistaken that’s the only version of the song that had a video for it. I remember seeing that on heavy rotation as well on BET’s Rap City.
@@simonsinistaj1917 - Naw. Ur memory is correct. The primo remix STAYED on rap city countdown for months.
I bumped this instrumental on cassette for YEARSSSSSS! Preemo had that precise simple exquisite cut right in the beginning of that hook that gets me till this day.
“Down on a-down on a-down on a reel to reel” shouts to Extra P.
You ain't the only one lol! Constant rotation
@@AQuestionofCharacter 💯
One of Fat Joe illest tracks.
That album is 🔥
I can't wait till you get to "OC Jewels" album!
Man some of Preem’s best work on that album: My World, War Games, and those two joints with Freddie Foxxx
I say it's my world, and I won't stop
and if you stand in my way you bound to get dropped
@@satishrobertson8771 classic
Yo preemo u gotta do strickly for da ladies lord finesse!!!
"That was the way it was, one day I went to visit my aunt and stuck up my cuz..." 90's HipHop forever. Salute!
I got that jealous ones envy top 20 album all time. Shit is real, the intro with krs and respect mine w Raekwon. What an album.
Yeah i have 3 CDs in my car for emergencies related to my phone and this is one of them
Great album. Definitely Joe’s best imo
Easily
hard hard hard album
I remember bugging out when I heard Raekwon on the track... classic album!
Its amazing how long Fat Joe is in the rap game and how relevant he still is. He used to be a graffiti writer as well, his street cred is undeniable.
One of my favorite Premo & Fat Joe Beat & Song...Got to listen to this after watching this.
Biggz Was Here. 33.
Remix was better then the original! Bought that ASAP. The good old days
D.I.T.C. is one of the most underrated rap groups in Hip Hop. I enjoyed these history lessons DJ Premier gives us for each of these episodes.
Jealous ones envy was a straight classic!!
I Had NO IDEA Premo Did This Joint. As An Old School Hip Hop Head, I Heard This Joint On a Mixtape. I Don't Remember Which One But That Was The First Time I Heard This Joint. This Was In Recent Years Too.
I got this on vinyl x2 of course... ⏺️ ⏺️
Dat Gangsta ish off the next album was dope AF too!!👍🏿👍🏿
DJ Red Alert spoke on the promos used back then to promote radio stations while being interviewed on Drink Champs with NORE. Real talk!. Music was done different back then. Airwaves where a place to share, produce and premiere hip hop music back then.
Lord Finesse (Legendary Producer/Rapper) brought in Diamond D (Legendary Producer/Rapper) and Shobiz (Legendary Producer) who brought Andre The Giant (Legendary Rapper) to work on album with Primo.
Man those crystallizing moments.
Showbiz made one of the most iconic album named.. Runaway slave... Fat pockets was number 1 for weeks on rapcity BET in 92 dres with show and AG was the dopest track remix .. they shout out to preem,.. damn I wish I could go back!
I love that "Jealous One's Envy" album! I still rock the tape every now and then
Lost my mind wen this came out! Kept it bangin in my truck for a year straight. Salute
I need an episode with O.C. and my favorite premier beat My world
Music video in black and white. I got it on VHS. Gotta salute the 💾 on this one.
Hands down my favorite Fat Joe track of all time.
1 of my all time favorite classic Joey Krack songs and Preemo beats!
My favorite Joe record ever, happy I got to tell Preemo that in person a few y back
One of the greatest hip hop songs ever. Still in my Playlist.
Feeling that EPMD "You Gots To Chill" LP in the background...
Sh!t is real Joe went hard Dope remix Premier.
fat joe's in town
Man what a song this is, Joe killed it
This remix will never get old..every time i listen to it i get goosebumps when the drums hit
For some reason I kind of missed Shit is Reak when it came out. I had heard Flow Joe and Watch the sound but missed shit is real until several later. Better late than never-it’s probably my fav Fat Joe cut and 90s Classic
The intro is hard ......the way the drums drop in 🔥
Fat Joe really doesn't get enough credit
He has so many hits
I think he got his flowers to some degree by doing that Verzuz, which was heavily viewed.
If anything his core fans might be tight because he didn't play some hard bangaz like this one!
@@jackharlowgan5280 I agree but when folks name their top 5
He definitely gets forgotten and he's been billboard hits for almost 20 years impressive
Wack songs like Lean Back don’t help.
@@drjones694 because hes very far from being in a legit top 5. Had his classic joints tho
@@Madvillany718 Lean Back made him an interantional star and was ringin off in the clubs and streets! And the lyrics was still G shit, he didn't compromise himself. He just made a HIT record to get out of the dirt! And it worked. It was smart. But niggas that still wear baggy jeans and oversized fitteds call it selling out lol
Hands down one of the best fat joe songs, WOW im subbed. I should be gong to bed but cant stop watching these
My favorite Fat Joe song.
Primo is a legend and a 🐐 producer !!! Fat Joe is a legend as well !!! Luv n Respect ✌️
this is my favorite Fat Joe track of all time and one of my top five favorite beats of all time. i love driving around sunroof and windows open blasting this track.
This is one of dopest Hip Hop Channels on UA-cam. DJ Premier is such a genius.
Maybe my favorite Preemo track ever... Just soo dope
So Wassup became one of the UA-cam "MUST WATCH" episodes for me ! Always a nice story from "back in the days" behind... DOPE !
facts!!!
To this day this is one of my all time favorite Fat Joe tracks.
Hell yeah, I knew this one was bound to get an episode sooner or later. Still waiting on that Craig David - 7 Days (Remix) episode! lol
My dream to hear that one!! 🔥
Yea the Craig David remix does need to happen. That would be so dope
Oh no!
Yo, what's the name of that beat in the background?
Fun fact about that remix. It was actually Craig rapping on the intro to the remix and not Nate Dogg.
The hardest Fat joe song EVERRRRRR! And my favorite Fat Joe song! With one of the sickest Premier beats ever. Classic realest sh#t! Success is strong second!
My wife and really enjoy this series and the walk down memory lane of Preemo Classics😎🔈🔈🎧🔈🔈🎤🎤
Beautiful series Preme!! I been a hip hop fan since ‘83 and being of Puerto Rican descent Fat Joe has always been a staple in our history of urban music. SALUTE to everything you’ve done from day one! KEEP ROCKING
Damn 83 you been down for a minute
The beat, lyrics and video perfectly captured the Bronx vibes of the 90s
FAT JOE The Don, one of the Realest to ever do it. Still underrated.
Hats off to Premier. Hats off to the producer and editor of this series.
These videos are literally my favorite part of the week every week!
It's nice to see how the art was created during those times. Collaborations were from the hearts and not from the charts.
that remix was crazy..I still listen to this til this day...Premo is th ebst to ever do it...
I can't believe that I havnt heard this song until today. As soon as the beat started I couldn't help but to nod my head
We need some Jay Z related stuff like A Million, So Ghetto, some of the Reasonable Doubt stuff
He's too protective of his music cause of Tidal.
@@duckmercy11 You do have a point.
This track and all the D.I.T.C. shit is FIIIYYYAAAAAA!!!! 💪🔥💯💯
Lord finesse and oc so slept on‼️‼️‼️
This. Set. Me. Off .in.'93 when it DROPPED..OMG...
Man I grew up listening to all this music. It's such a privilege to take a look behind the curtain and hear all these stories so many years later.
Love hearing these classic background stories to some of the greatest hip hop records of all time. Bravo.
Still get chills man…. I felt that song the first time I saw that music video…
This is the song that was in my head everyday I lived in the Bronx.
This is right up there near my top all time Primo beats. I didn't even like Fat Joe before this dropped, and after I heard "Sh*t Is Real" I was like man... I was totally wrong. He changed my mind just like that.
The DJ Premier remix is amazing for Shit Iz Real, probably my favourite Fat Joe track ever.
Thass Wussup!
One of Preemo’s greatest beats 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
The floppy disk ☠️☠️💯🤛🏼🤛🏼🤛🏼🤛🏼🤛🏼🤛🏼🤛🏼
I gotta listen to this song at least 4 times a week. That sample was so cold
Word! The sample was perfect for the topic! I assumed Joe wrote to it because the beat and rhymes matched perfect! Never knew it was a Remix. Salute Preemo!
facts!!
One of my favorite Preemo beats ever!!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
That beat had so much mood to it. I miss the days of the sleigh bells.
Now we also need Fat Joe - That White ❗
One of the absolute dopest remixes right here, blew me away back in '94 and still goes hard today!
Premier, please do videos for Gangstarr's Speak Ya Clout and I'm the Man. First joints Group Home appeared on I think and the idea of using 3 different beats for one song always intrigued me to know the history. Salute the floppy disk!!!
4:03 great remix 💯💯💯🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥⬆️⬆️⬆️⬆️⬆️⬆️⬆️⬆️⬆️⬆️🎤🎤🎤🎤🎤🎤🎤🎤🎤
Glad he did this one. Classic. Shout out to Fat Joe
AG was an underrated Mc and producer . He definitely had a unique sound with both
I had cousins that def would stick up my other cousins. This song is so real ha. That album is still one of my favs
That album is tragically underrated........I had the cassette constantly playing in my mom's 92 Chrysler LeBaron.......90s memories
This record gave me chills.
6:28 BARZ 🎤🎤🎤🎤🎤🎤⬆️⬆️⬆️⬆️
I remember getting the promo, fresh out the box played it that night on my mixshow. The phones lit up instantly. Four hour show, I played it 3 times that night.
Classic in my book. These joints never get old.
Preemo the goat!! Love this beat, it’s a classic!!
One of my all time Preemo Beats Classic Jealous One’s Envy definitely a Classic. Fat Joe came with it. 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Preem got his timeline outta order on this one. “Shit Is Real” was one of the last ones from Fat Joe’s first album. So this remix was pre-‘J.O.E.’
I remember cause I was buying 12”s heavy during this time. Plus this beat is his 93/94 style. He wasn’t doing beats like this too much in 95 aside from the Group Home stuff.
Ok mr. expert
You're not wrong but neither was DJ Premier. The label put his remix on his '95 album even though it was recorded and released years prior.
@@thablackkat9905 Thank you for connecting the dots. Because one thing that's always consistent is Premo's memory. That man has the mind of an elephant 🐘
You’re absolutely right!
Facts.
This is my favorite Fat Joe Track of All Time, produce by my favorite Producer of All Time 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥Preeeeemo!!!
DJ Premier is a living hip hop legend.
As much as I like this beat it gives me a PTSD. I freestyle battled over it back when I was 14, in 2006, I totally fuxked up and got pretty much booed off of the stage 🥲😆
Haha 14 is pretty young though at least you had the guts to go up there 👍🏾
3:12 yes OC Time’s up great song 🎧🔥🔥🔥💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I still bump this remix till this day!! #DITC4EVA
Yo primo I just want to thank you for giving us real hip hop heads the history behind the music. You paint the picture so vividly and we appreciate it so much. It’s cat’s like me that always wonder how was it going down the day that some of our favorite artists recorded some of the dopest tracks and I thank you for using your platform to give us a visual
That sample is just Perfect 🎧
0:09 wow I missed this video 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💯💯💯💯🔥🔥🔥
Crack and primo got classics! The remix is fire too
