@@matthewbeamer3978 was watching random memes earlier and the beat was scratching my brain. Thankfully homie could point me straight to the sauce because I knew I'd heard it before years ago..
Am I the only one who can never seem to just listen to this track once? It’s like an immediate, have to hear it again, because my mind is blown every time! I always have to play it at least 2 or 3 times to comprehend the brilliance.
There is another great video that uses this Dead Prez instrumental : When the Smoke Clearz ft. Taalam Acey, by Guerilla News Network. You can find it here on YT.
Hip hop is just a tool. It can be used used to empower and it can be used to dumb down the masses. It seems the dumbed-down hip hop is the mainstream hip hop now.
It still blows my mind that a group like this was able to penetrate into the mainstream. Groups of real substance don’t usually get heard on this level.
If you have something to say and you're so passionate about what you're saying that you want people to hear your message, then why would you mumble smh
The line: “these record labels sling our tapes like dope, you be next in line to sign and still be writing rhymes they wrote”. One of the best bars I’ve ever heard.
As me and my friends listen to this 20 years ago we was so on fire really. We all jumping around. Listen the whole day the dead prez album. The whole album is absolutly great. What a bomb and they where all the time underrated. Like Mobb Deep and all of them
The sad thing is these lyrics are still relevant and the message STILL needs to be addressed. The lyrics, the video, the message, the movement hits HARD.
No it’s not sad. It’s a message. It means to fight on and be about what’s right. Be about truth, be about moving forward. Trust me, I don’t feel sad, I feel motivated. 1A2A
that is not sad fren. this is HOW IT IS! Listen to what they are saying and go past the lyrics. They throw so much game at you, it is insane. Nothing to address there. It is how it is and will always be. You keep it real and you are moving. Up. Always.
@ruin. my.manicure Lol!! I had the CD when it first came out. My 19 yr old son remember this song as well😊 We had way more conscious rap back in the 90’s. I hate that now all you young people hear is music about drugs, sex, violence, etc. 😕
I'm glad that every else is as blown away as I was when I heard this on BET and MTV in 99? This is a incredible album . Change my whole attitude and perspective.
Man, now more than ever we need hip hop and rappers like these guys . Music with a message that's real , not bull*hit about drugs,cash,pussy,killing etc . I remember hearing this for the first time on the Tim Westwood radio show .
"You rather have a Lexus or Justice? A dream or some substance? A Beamer, a necklace or freedom?" Unfortunately, most will take the former rather than the latter.
If you a fighter, rider, biter, flame-ignitor, crowd-exciter Or you wanna just get high then just say it... But then if you a liar-liar, pants on fire, wolf-crier, agent with a wire I'm gon' know it when I play it
when in our 30's already? lol. damn time flies and hip hop was super dope back n the day. right before the turn of the century. '02 was prolly the end of dope hip hop..90's hip hop was the best yo!.
"I'm sick of that fake thug R&B rap scenario all day on the radio same scenes in the video monotonous material". I've been thinking this same shit ever since I was a kid!

Only caught the tail end but Holy shit i need to see the whole thing. Seen mos solo, kweli solo, blackstar, the roots multiple times, dead prez live was epic
love that special, the only shitty part is the sound mix is way too live for the location, if like... fuckin chris martin or james taylor was on stage itd be fine but that was not a great spot for bass with buildings so close on every side

Wow where hip hop went nowadays 😢

Now this is REAL Hip Hop!!! Clear rhymes with a message.
There is a dude that used the first part in a mash up, his name is Ren and the band is the Big Push he can also rap rap.

Sad that most of it now is out of control and brainwashing the youth
@@RawDogTV the last thing our government wants is intelligent rappers speaking the truth. They give all the fame and money to these dumb ass rappers.

Hip hop is just a tool.
It can be used used to empower and it can be used to dumb down the masses.

This song gets more relevant the deeper into the 2020s we go...
Especially after this INCREDIBLE battle!! Been celebrating since 😌
Ain't nothing changed! This song is 24 years old!
The whole album. Hell, their whole catalog.
Correct. At the same time, this comment says more about you, than the song.

It still is next level
Still is
It still blows my mind that a group like this was able to penetrate into the mainstream. Groups of real substance don’t usually get heard on this level.
most of the hiphop music back then was this good, regardless of talking about cars or freedom like this one!
Loud Records pushed a lot of great street hip hop to the mainstream.
Trevor Pokela No it wasn’t. Most hip hop when they came out was bubble gum trash
@@kid5042 maybe by today's standards but back then the underground hip hop was this dope not all of it but at least 70% of it
@@gregpuryear8163 Yea but mainstream was terrible. D4l Soulja Boy Franshise Boys etc.
