+Mr Fix Amen! Folks can say I'm "stuck in the 90's" but IDGAF! The "Golden Age of Hip Hop" was something truly special and I'm so so glad I was there to witness it.
Jake Hodgkins Aren't they? I know! Music was about craft. Nowadays you could have no craft and go big. Back then it was about the vision/dream to build off your success. Now its chains, hoes, sex and flashy shit. U know?
These lyrics are insane and get the final blow with the 'headbouncing' productions. This is thereby one of my favourite tracks, along with T.R.O.Y. Passing me by, 93 till infinity and some others! Peace to all and enjoy the magical sounds of music
Favorite Jeru verse.. and those ending lines.. "Fire burns the unjust like arson larceny melt mcs with mental telepathy "With precision we slicing and dicing" ....Peace to the east New York, Perverted monks and Mike Tyson.
+flatbeginner yea one of the best ever hes so fucking inderrated listen to any of his albums or collabos hes amazing why no one ever mentions him is beyond me
Internet killed the Hip hop star...we used to wait with anticipation for these maxi singles & albums to drop or catch them on BET or radio & tape them..its instant gratification now for these kids so they dont value anything
internet is making it able to find though at least and bringing back real hip hop... radio killed the hip hop star in my opinion. they stopped rap city and yo mtv raps before the internet blew up
I understand that it sounds cheap and cliche to say that hip hop sucks today and it was much better in the 90s but there is nothing that can dispute that fact. Music was just THAT much better back then.
JacoBluezz I have never herd the shaq album,but u might have a good point....sad but true. there r only 6 people who can sell 1 million copies within a 12 month period...the second half of the 1990's...were fire...ice cream by raekwon,missy elliott etc....
"Subliminal hypnotism and colonialism, Leave most niggas dead or in prison" Besides that whole 1st verse this is one of the realest lines in the whole song . Why cant we go back to these days, real music with real messages with killer beats. Today we have absolute shit all beat and no lyrics. No wonder Hip Hop plummeted after 99 everyone that who spoke the real unscripted truth either conformed or pretty much was forced into obscurity.
+OfficeHanchoBoxing I remember reading something that music today has lyrics which are pretty much catered to the brain capacity of a 5 year old. Because of that, kids now won't even understand what real hip hop preaches through ingenious wordplay so they think it's trash and listen to simple lyrics on a hard beat.
+OfficeHanchoBoxing I think there's no denying that some of the best Hip-Hop music came out in the 1990's. I do think, however, that there is a lot of music out there nowadays in the scene that still has some strong messages in it. Most of the examples that come to mind - 3rdiiiUth (iiMz, or however he spells his name, has some great mixtures of religious messages along with a critique of racism and modern society), the Kool Klux Klan (specifically crashPREZ and Sir E.U), Mick Jenkins, Mr. Muthafuckin' eXquire, Aesop Rock, and Kendrick Lamar - are fairly obscure, with the exception of Kendrick, who I believe manages to mix some catchy sounds with rather great messages. The more theological and philosophical side of hip-hop is out there, but you have to dig for it. Maybe some of those recommendations can help lead you to the kind of music you're looking for.
@@lifestraight maybe, but I definitely always took it to also be aimed at wu (cream ). Not necessarily a shot at them I guess, but a reference to the concept of cream and how money can control people's fates
@@lifestraight yea that's basically what I meant... don't think it was really a dis though , because part of creams concept was the fact it's fucked up that cash rules. It definitely could've been aimed at bad boy too I didn't realize these comments were from 4 years ago lol
Pure hip-hop, there's nothing like it. It's sad it's becoming like Jazz...unappreciated. People don't know what they're missing or can't comprehend. The golden era will never come thru again. Those of us that was there will cherish it for all times ✌
Today's music is trash worst mumble rap ever aired common sense said it best I hear niggaz slamming her and taking her threw the sewer smh talking about scrub the ground whatt?
2 of the most underrated Mcs ever Chubb and jeru killed this song with dope ass beats from premier NY is so hip hop its the Mecca to hip hop like the garden is Mecca to bball oh yea both in NY
boiiii! listening to this era of music makes me forget about this era ATM. These were the times. don't get it twisted there's Some hot MCs still around. this era just takes you back. Good times
" Fire burns the unjust like arsen, larceny, melt emcees with telepathy" I said it before I'll say it again Jeru is so wrongfully underrated that its sickening. 2 superior albums back to back, the first one a classic
+Sarah Hendz anyway we can't argue with these fools, they get brainwashed by some fool ass niggas haha we just bright because we still stuck in the old school haha
I've been listening to Tribe Called Quest, De La Soul, Digable Planets, Pete Rock CL Smooth, Pharcyde, Gang Starr and all the Native Tongues for years so how the fuck haven't I ever heard about this group until now? This is amazing!
This was not a group-theyre were all solo artists who joined together for this track for Clockers soundtrack. Same for a year earlier for Crooklyn movie
"Enterprising businessmen shoot dice on the corner", that one line holds so much meaning....I've always loved this track from when I was a teenager up until now into adulthood....
According to Rapgenius the Whitey's/White T's that are being talked about refer to the color shirts the drug running kids were wearing. Also, it's a referral to the government putting crack on the streets.
Stephen Blakely - Great breakdown,all these so-called thugs,gangsta wannabes on their way to the grave or to one of these white owned, and operated updated plantations to be a 3/5th of a slave for many years to come. 21st century genocide,eugenics and population control.
When Chubb is called on to spit, he holds back NOTHING. Chubb had one of the best deliveries in the game. He could always lay down them poignant ass stern lines and they would still sound so dope.
Young kids and men that stumbled across this great track, keep watching the related tracks that come thru on auto play!..90s HipHop = the last great unadulterated genre of music in its purest form...Bless up!
l loved this classic story tellin with lyrics like this when hip-hop had its best in it. But yet being that these catz were underground, and to me yet very understood. Chubb rock and Guru l can't believe were on the same song. Those were my favorite artists at the time.
I wouldn't know since I don't listen to modern rap. The New York scene seemed to fade away in the early-mid 00s though once the southern scene got hot. That's around the time I stopped listening.
It's not a racist song at all it chronicles the different stories and things that happened growing up in Brooklyn new york.... And the people relate not just cause the beat nice or the raw lyrics all three Mcs display, but if you was raised in similar circumstances it hits home..
This is one of the very best records ive had the pleasure to listen too, WOW fat tune so cool , wish this was my bread n butter when i was growing up , but i was in London buzzin my nut of to old skool anthems in clubs with the scene , But every time i listen to this i wish i was in New York with those cats
Dear 1995, I miss you, Hip Hop misses you
indeed
+Mr Fix Amen!
Folks can say I'm "stuck in the 90's" but IDGAF! The "Golden Age of Hip Hop" was something truly special and I'm so so glad I was there to witness it.
+Mr Fix im born in the 90's and imma die in the 90's !
Hell yeah.
REAL SHIT HOMEBOY!!! THESE KIDS 2DAY DON"T KNOW NOTHING ABOUT THAT!!!
Chubb killed it. Hands down one of the best verses in hip hop history.
+Shawn Johnson That sequence is just so catchy, I bet everyone has looped it
True
Chubb always been Nice! I feel like he doesn't get enough credit tho!
Nobody who makes good hip hop gets enough credit.
FACTS, one of the most underrated💯
Chubb Rock is a former National Merit Scholar who dropped out of Brown University's Pre-Med program to become a rapper!! Crazy shit!!!
Are u sure? I think that he finished
+Stoned Chetnik Yup. Check his bio.
+Daniel Kelegian that explains the tucked in shirt.. I was confused
+Daniel Kelegian the lyrics he rapped was scholarly, education made hip hop awesome
+rasvial the tucked in shirt!!
the older i get the more chubb rocks verse gets to me
so true comrade
yodas halfbrother shit got me here buggin right now. Goddamn. That shit hurt Chubb. Damn real & damn needed.

Jeru Killed his verse!
Taalib Akil El-Bey word !
+Taalib Akil El-Bey Chubb Rock and Jeru have two of the hardest lyrics ever spit in hip hop history on this track. Beyond belief underrated!
+Taalib Akil El-Bey he owned the shit of that beat :3
+Taalib Akil El-Bey He sure did!! Props to Jeru!!
+Taalib Akil El-Bey JERU holds it down.. Love his style.

Chubb Rocks verse on this is so deep and prolific that every time I listen I want to cry; it's still tru after all these years.
We have the write nutrition bless the soul marijuana
Had to tag you again. It's been 8yrs since you listened to this classic
I kept replaying it 😂😂.
If you don't get some type of feeling, a good feeling listening to this, you ain't got no soul.
Meh... you can't be too presumptuous... but I get reminiscent when I hear this ;)
Can't explain the feeling I get when I hear this
Mai Tai hacked by me
I get goosebumps! lol
"Fire burns the unjust like arson"
that beat is crazy primo always had that fire
always and forever my friend
@@darylshields4365 yes
One of his best for me, and there are plenty to choose from.
One of the greatest hip hop songs ever........
Jeru finished brilliantly. All of them were on point
Amen. Love Jeru's verse. So much truth in it and perfect match to the mood of Premier's beat.
Facts
Absolutely 👍🏿
Jeru ran an anchor verse for the ages on this one!!! 🎧 🎵 🎹
Nobody makes a NY track like premier, this beat just put your mind in NY, the trains, fire escapes , corner stores, cabs, project benches.
Fact!
No fucking doubt. Premier's beats embody the east coast.
Yocat Word!! You just read my mind!!
I agree 100% and I ain't ever been to NY...
crazy how premier and guru weren't from NY but embodied the NY sound
Premo! One of my favorite joints by Premo... pure dope!
HELL YEA LOVE THIS JOINT!
Much as I love this joint and the time it brings back for me, the Theodore Unit with Ghost kills this track! So dope.
preemo
Xavier STG
Yeah, I always mess that up, thanx.
The piano 🎹 is too cold...the random bell 🛎 that rings is a gem. Classic legendary song. Lyrics superior, beat is timeless.
Man!! This just takes me back!! I swear the 90s was everything!! This is true HipHop right here!! This the era I come from & represent!! One love!!!
cant tell you how jealous i am.
Jake Hodgkins
Its ok. Just enjoy the music and culture of the memories that come from such a indelible era!
I do, music videos do it the best, especially the classics.
Jake Hodgkins
Aren't they? I know! Music was about craft. Nowadays you could have no craft and go big. Back then it was about the vision/dream to build off your success. Now its chains, hoes, sex and flashy shit. U know?
***** Yea it used to be about the music and the message behind the lyrics, no flashy video needed. If you had skills they spoke for themselves.
Man the Jeru verse will always be one of my favourite drops in all of hip hop
These lyrics are insane and get the final blow with the 'headbouncing' productions.
This is thereby one of my favourite tracks, along with T.R.O.Y. Passing me by, 93 till infinity and some others!
Peace to all and enjoy the magical sounds of music
That is music the real hip-hop
Wavelength
Chubb’s verse made me cry!😢😢😢😢🤦🏾♀️🙏🏾🙏🏾🙌🏾

"Fire burns the unjust like arson larceny

"With precision we slicing and dicing"
....Peace to the east New York, Perverted monks and Mike Tyson.
+ArchaeoL๏gist tha ArchVIlLąIn And the fact that he was only 23 makes it all the more impressive.
+lifestraight Yeah.. but alot of mcs best work was made when they was really young
ArchaeoL๏gist tha ArchVIlLąIn True, but this shit shows he was ahead of dudes intellectually. Including Nas and Wu-Tang I would say.
+lifestraight I gotta agree, Jeru was/is "Your nine spray, my mind spray" guy..but Nas "verbal Ak spray".. I dont know :)
+ArchaeoL๏gist tha ArchVIlLąIN Ninety Six ways i made out, Montan way the Good F.E.L.L.A
chubb is most underrated mc ever lived i swear
word.. he had such a nice flow, almost as nice as biggies
+flatbeginner yea one of the best ever hes so fucking inderrated listen to any of his albums or collabos hes amazing why no one ever mentions him is beyond me
Greg C you are so right 👍🏼
Facts
Chubb is dope. With honorable mentions to wordsmiths like AG, OC, & MC Ren
Internet killed the Hip hop star...we used to wait with anticipation for these maxi singles & albums to drop or catch them on BET or radio & tape them..its instant gratification now for these kids so they dont value anything
internet is making it able to find though at least and bringing back real hip hop... radio killed the hip hop star in my opinion. they stopped rap city and yo mtv raps before the internet blew up
We lived this culture with style.....Karl Kani and Timbos
on the other hand, teenagers nowdays that are interested in rap of 90's era can find it through youtube like me
I still got the Nas 96 it was written promo tape that shipped with The Source!!
He spoke the truth on that!
Hip hop was a true art form back in 95. Jeru's verse is fire
Totally agree
95 kickin live
Back when rap lyrics had real meaning
Queen_K one day IT SHALL RETURN

I understand that it sounds cheap and cliche to say that hip hop sucks today and it was much better in the 90s but there is nothing that can dispute that fact. Music was just THAT much better back then.
A million times better yo.
BigBad Bryant Much much better, I miss that vibe!
BigBad Bryant Shaq made a rap album in the 90's better than 90% of mainstream artists today
JacoBluezz Sad but accurate.
JacoBluezz I have never herd the shaq album,but u might have a good point....sad but true. there r only 6 people who can sell 1 million copies within a 12 month period...the second half of the 1990's...were fire...ice cream by raekwon,missy elliott etc....
Hip Hop back than was worth listening too
It still is, you just have to hunt down the good stuff.
Agree.
Always loved this track but only now I've realised how much knowledge Chubb Rock dropped on his lyrics...
there's some really deep emotional vibrations with the elements and frequencies of this song. I felt it the first time I heard it.
facts
Black struggle and optimism. ✊🏽
This is exactly how I felt when I heard Styles rap over this beat.. he killed this
chubb rock was a beast!
Callum Brown i sware
yeah Chubb ripped this shit. He is on Old School 100.3 out here in Philly from 10am to 2pm
Callum Brown thats a fact
Callum Brown nah
Callum Brown Chubb rock vs jaz-o in a Brooklyn NY rap battle?

White T's.. As in white T shirts
Yeah I was just trolling lol.
What does he mean by White T's?
Joe Curry That what I figured.
According to Rapgenius the Whitey's/White T's that are being talked about refer to the color shirts the drug running kids were wearing. Also, it's a referral to the government putting crack on the streets.
2021! One of the best....wish they made them like this these days.
How could you go wrong with this one ? One of my favorite M.C.'s Jeru ,and one of my favorite Preemo beats !
When Hip Hop meant something..🗽🌇🌃

quite simply one the best hip hop joints of all time... and props to lee and scorsese for a a cracking movie

All these emcees saw it comin'!
always been one of my favorite cuts Jeru mercs it and Chubb always go hard
Just watched CLOCKERS again last night....Timeless content on film and on wax.
When Chubb is called on to spit, he holds back NOTHING. Chubb had one of the best deliveries in the game. He could always lay down them poignant ass stern lines and they would still sound so dope.
The chubbster word up
We did it like that...
Jeru brought me here. He murders this song. Conscious lyricism over a DJ Premier = Classic.
Classic.
Chubb Rock fam
Still listening to this song in 2019
Chubb's opening verse if one of the best and most important verses in all of hip-hop
Coped this tape in 95, played the shit out of it. Holly Hills
20 years....fresh like produce
Young kids and men that stumbled across this great track, keep watching the related tracks that come thru on auto play!..90s HipHop = the last great unadulterated genre of music in its purest form...Bless up!

Jeru is probably the most slept on dude everrrr
Word. I concur.
“Subliminal hypnotism and colonialism leave most Niggas dead or in prison”
God damn Jeru left a gem to be found 30 years later
cant stop with this song
HOLY FUCK CHUBB ROCK KILLED IT!!!!!! U HEARD What that dude was saying??? and how he was saying it .... flow, message ...voice...nice.
Word Chubb ripped this joint!
Memories😥
This is the shit you feel mind, body and soul!!! It moves you in so many ways...a time lost but NEVER forgotten!
Primo during the 90s was untouchable. Defined the sound of New York rap.
+ajbahus Do you think he has regressed?
I wouldn't know since I don't listen to modern rap. The New York scene seemed to fade away in the early-mid 00s though once the southern scene got hot. That's around the time I stopped listening.
ajbahus So you haven't heard the tracks he produced for Slaughterhouse or the Phryme album he did with Royce?
It's not a racist song at all it chronicles the different stories and things that happened growing up in Brooklyn new york.... And the people relate not just cause the beat nice or the raw lyrics all three Mcs display, but if you was raised in similar circumstances it hits home..
John Randle I don't think you had to have been there to appreciate this song. Still holds truth to this day everywhere.
This is one of the very best records ive had the pleasure to listen too, WOW fat tune so cool , wish this was my bread n butter when i was growing up , but i was in London buzzin my nut of to old skool anthems in clubs with the scene , But every time i listen to this i wish i was in New York with those cats
