This was one of my brother's favorite Dipset song. Coming back here and watching this video bring back so many memories of my childhood. He played this all the time. Rest In Peace Andre 🙏 Thank you Dipset for the memories ❤
This shit corny asf rs
🙏🏾
I’m here for the same reason 🙏🏼
Every time I play this song it'll be in memory of your bro
Same !!!
For everyone that's saying why would they wear purple. Purple City was Harlem Gang that ran the streets of Harlem way before the bloods ever came to the East Coast. The Purple City gang wore nothing but purple and had all their foreign cars painted purple. Jim and Dipset was just paying homage to them being fellow Harlem natives. There's a documentary called Hell Up In Harlem that highlights the Purple City gang that once made millions in the streets of Harlem. Hope this clears of the confusion.
Much love for dropping knowledge my guy
Good looking out
@@m.j.2421 dropping knowledge? Nigga I'm from 145 st Broadway that shit never existed in Harlem. That was him hones shit never street shit. Half the niggas in the video they not even from Harlem.
@Sid Joyner you sound lime a fucking groupie like I said I'm from 145 dumb little niggas like you love to turn lies into reality half the niggas in that video. I know they mostly from the heights 139 155 etc.
Harlem had crips before bloods on the island
Who’s else is playing this in 2025?
I’m 35 now I remember when this came out as a youngin time flys !!!!!
Yoooo😂🎉
Duh. Who hasn't been playing it..24, 23, 22,21..and so on? Is the question.
🟣🌃🦅👬👬
Nobody but you let’s be real
Nothing like this era. PURPLE CITY BYRDGANG‼️🔥🔥🔥🔥🦅
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
That beat cold as hell with Jim Jones delivery 🔥
I remember this track. The Dips had a good run. They put Harlem on the map and kept them there for a few summers at a time . They were very consistent with official albums and street mix tapes. I miss those times .
Assad Muhammad down here in Mississippi we fucked with dipset hard
228allday that's peace
This is my favorite group from NYC period .
PEACE ABDUL, ARE YOU STILL AT THE BOOK STORE? THERE'S SOME MATERIAL I'M LOOKING FOR, GET BACK AT ME KING!
The second dude is nice
This song was a banger. .love the beat.. n hook n the visuals was lit...n it was filmed in my hood..purple city byrdgang dip set was really something unforgettable
Jim Jones is the Capo of this he made the Set evolve the blood and all the energy was Everybody Jones fact. shoutout Lil Harlem.
Who's here in 2020?
I miss the early 2000s
Tony Brown I miss the 90s more
@@ChevyAxel true
Rap was great back then
@@abemartinez9623 yup
@Tonya Atkinson yes
Remember bumping this heavy in the Acura Legend cruising around West Palm.
Used to wait for this video to come on BET UNCUT , back in 2006 when I was 10 ... anyone that resided in NYC during this era knows how much Dipset influenced us from lingo to fashion , you had random hood niccas on the block repping Dipset , we'll never witness a movement that potent again word ...
Intelligent Hoodlum i miss BET uncut music videos I used to wait until tree in the morning two watch the videos and I was mad with it took it off the air
This video happened in August of 2003 when the blackout happened.. lol classic shit!!
Notice no lights in the background
Intelligent Hoodlum Dawm you a younging lol
Facts!! Dipset was a movement
You can't deny what Jim did 💯💯💯
You can’t! 🗽🔥
Facts
This song is weak af bro
This shit was undeniable
@@nothingbasic Oh it was deniable alright lol
If you were around you’d remember Dipset owned NYC for those years.
i will agree, but Tru life pulled his card. however, on a talent tip. dipset is much better.
@Gnik4144 G-G-G-Got outta here with that crazy talk 🤦🏾🤣 yea locally, The Unit was universal 🫡
@@smoothmeekz wtf does that even mean?
And some parts out west i heard....
@@smoothmeekzyea G unit was on a whole another level
2024 still listening
Same here my dude.
We here gang

This is an iconic moment in rap history
Lol
Lol no it’s not 🥴
😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂🎉🎉
Good track but let's not overdo the props here. Respectfully of course.
This was my ringtone on my i730 Nextel haha
Lmao I had that summer in Miami on mine
***** haha word!
i had it on my i840 9tr3y BBA UBN
😂😂😂 lol i still own my i930 but the charger broke
CLYDE BARROW idk where any of my Nextel's are my i730 or i870. Oldest phone I still have is my Sidekick ID
The Ravens needs to borrow this song for a min 😅
Purple city byrdgang!!! Bro u spitting faxxx
Dipset had their own style of beatz which were unique. Anyone could bash jim jones but comepare your networth to his.He is a very hard worker and very persistent. I met him and he was a very humble individual.
I rocked this song on a mixtape way before it even came out now I'm rocking it in 2021
2022 n still chuuuune
2023
2024!
I,m MEXICAN & i like Spanish Rap , Hip-Hop . but this is the real GANGSTA Music ✊
Shiest wasn’t lying they was really in Maryland at one point. They had Purple City n***** round Mondawmin out Baltimore for a short spell. The Dipset influence was legendary.
From the east coast to the west coast down south and up north God bless you all Amen 🙏 🙌
Word!
Man the beat aligned with the the song so well
Always made sure I watched this video before school with Comcast On Demand good ol memories with my siblings trying to get to that big screen tv first in the living room with the Comcast box
Miss this shit. Nextel days. smoking haze and sour. White tees and fitteds.
This shit came on in verses !!! I went in !!!! Memories !!!!!
Same here
ME TOO!!
Yup I had to make i still had it on my playlist.
for two seconds
Dipset lost badly
UA-cam foul for bringing this classic to my reccomend. 69 snitched on Jim n now the feds are rewatching every video of him building a case
LOL, I was thinking the same shit
U ainy lyin boy, this shit popped up on my feed out the blue. I aint seen this video in like 14 yrs.
I don't know why the Lox tried to play this song. This joint go hard. This is a dipset classic . 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I gave them this round forgot all about it
I never heard that jam until the battle..I've been playing that shit like it's new 😅
Shits trash
@@The1DarkBoy nah
It just sounded bad during the performance, zeeky dancing didn’t help
I don't care what anyone says. Jim Jones got this song off.
He did, this is one of his best.
Jim actually killed this. One of his best verses.
He was the only good part of this song
That hook is everything!!!!
god damn i miss these days man DIPSET was the mothafuckin' shit from the early 2000s to 2008 respected and loved by everybody. They never made a bad song man 40 cal was the most underrated member of DIPSET- SO I PERSONALLY WANNA GIVE A SHOUT OUT TO 40 CAL, UN KASA, AND JR WRITER!!!!
Never forget JR
Jr writer was the shit
This song was just fire 🔥 used to bump this in my system til the amps powered off lol. This beat is so sick
Free the real from Detroit to NY 💯
Always thought the beat was dope but when I look back on this, I recognize that I got caught up on the corniness of the image while grooving to the catchiness and melody of its time. I’m glad I’m grown now and able to perceive past that. Age and experience has a way of waking you up.
gRe3nEr_PaSTuR35 lol word up.. this is TRASH
That goes for that whole Dipset movement which was trash and helped to bring down true NYC hip hop with all this buffoonery and style jacking.
@@Israel-nb7ip ah, come on , south, west and north did nothing like that
Hahahahaha u crazy for that comment😂 Just watched The lox vs Dipset battle and Jada was like “what the fuck is this shit”
No sauce,this shit corny,the crazy part they look like this now...
Beat so tough!!! B.E.T. UNCUT days
💯🔥💪🏾
Y’all wild for this recommendation 😂
Can’t believe this is ONLY 8 years old!!! Looks, sounds, feels like it’s from something like the 90’s.
Dude this cane out early 2000s summer 2004
@@dreadxplayzs7849dude is crazy lol
Way older
Hell no it doesn't
2004
Who’s still banging this 01-2025!? Let me know!? 💯💪🏽🔥🔥🔥
On fivenem grave 🪦
Jim Jones had his moment fr during that era.
This was my fav song at one point!
This beat is knockin'
Rite
This should have been the Ravens' theme song while Ray Ray was still that head-ringer. Quote The Raven, THAT PURPLE CITY BIRDGANG.
Me and my boy used to play this song madden 04 when he would use ravens
You think Ray Ray facing murder chargers would have used a song talking about shooting your ops as their theme.
THIS BEAT STRAIGHT LEGENDARY 💯💯💯
This is when from when I work purple and pink and blasted Dipset all day in High School '03-'07
People forgot that they did this video during the NYC Blackout. That's why the streets looks so vacant.
+UNStar88 Damn it was that long ago? Im gettin old.
Hell yea. When dipset was running shit. Dame still running things at the Roc and Kanye stuck to making real music.
+UNStar88 lol when Kanye stuck to making real music haha that just tells you how old this is
Wait but that happened 03 this song came out in 05 right?
Adam Johnson
Nah they did song and video back in 03 but the album kept getting pushed back. That's why the video may have came out late.
Rappers in that era wore clothes way too big for them .
Rappers in this era now wear clothes too small for them.
matthew robinson then there’s us regular guys who always wore there size 😂😂
New York niggas just be snatching any hat they see in the store. Don’t care what size it is... just as long as it’s big as hell. The second rapper gave ZERO fux that the hat he was wearing was too damn big... he said fuck it and ran with it anyway. 😆🤣
@@Inglewood_Addition people wore big hats in the city for a reason back then...if you know you know
Darrell Smoke Maven Simeon was it because they wore each other clothes back then and wanted to make sure hats and clothes were able to fit any homie (big or small) who wanted to wear em? 😏
matthew robinson Rappers back in the 1970s-1980s wore normal sized clothes.
Damn this song 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥!! I remember I used to ride to this with the system up , unkasa come in all aggressive, made me turn way tf up !! Then Jim come in snapping!!! Damn wished hip hop was still like this !
Dam brings memories back. Miss this real songs hip hop
I love real street hip hop, non filtered or commercial 💪🏿💯
Jim Jones is a legend
When Jada said no one outside of New York knows this song I fucking lost it Lmfaaoo
Nah man, this was my shit back in the day.
😆😆🤣🤣🤣
Im from Belgium and I know track for A long time, one of the hardest tracks this from NY till this day if ya ask me, and no jada has no track that bangs as hard as this one 👌💯
I'm from VA and I fucked with dipset but this was trash
everybody knows this heat!

Jim Jones put the set on his back for some years KFC fell back for a while and jimmy kept rollin Killa always the don tho
Happy 44th BDAY to Jim Jones 2020!!!!
From the deep recesses of my memory...a Flash game I played in the early 2000s had the instrumental to purple city bird gang without the overlayed drums and the maraca sounds that you hear on the beat, just the naked repeating ah ah ah's...the game was shitty AF with some castle and you had to launch catapults on a green hill to get over this castle wall (there was barely any objective or point to it at all, but I stayed for because the background had the ah ah ah's playing the whole time). Just to be clear, the grey castle was on the left side and took up 1/3 of the screen and the green hill was on the right side and was maybe 1/5 of the screen, and i remember a gremlin looking dude that popped up in the middle or left of the screen when you did some shit as well (no jump scare, just some feature that you cleared a level or something)...the beat was surreal when playing the flash game and even more surreal when I heard it for that record...I've been trying to dig up that flash game ever since like 2004 but I can't find it at all nor do I remember what site it was from, most likely addicting games or even newgrounds....it was like a featured or new game they had on their website, but the game was straight ass, yo
the only reason that I held on to this memory for this long is because every time they rhyme the word "barbarian" in the song, my mind immediately zooms back into that memory when I was playing that game, like damn, lol
I played that game one time, moved on, and didn't think much about it, but then when I heard the song come out, i was like, yo, i need to find this game again, but I played so many Flash games that I didn't know where to begin...that infectious ah ah ah's came up almost immediately when you hit start on that game, and i'd like to imagine that the engineer or somebody was burning time playing this game and someone else thought that they were making a beat, so they just made that into a beat on the spot because dipset at that time had spitters who were rapping to every beat they got their hands on
I was gonna just post it here to see if anyone can dig up shitty castle flash games (before adobe discontinues their shit) and try to find that Purple City Byrd Gang sample, lmao
This alwayz started fight in my hxxd😂😂😂 i miss tha old dayz in nyc
Big ass shirts and baggy jeans....I miss the 2000s.....😭
Yea I know I missed these days
The beat the video the Chorus the flow 🔥
Lyrics 50/50

Courntey Patterson lol
lol
copied my comment. Its all good though.
Still loving the beat in 2015
Should be the saints row anthem song
Hampus Ragnarsson I was just saying the same thing. Lol
They should really consider using that if they ever make another Saints Row, but it has to, I repeat, HAS TO, be street themed it can not be like the 4th part of the series
Hampus Ragnarsson Lmaooooo!
Let’s hope it’s the Saints Row we all know and love
Lol
Jim killed this 🔥.
Came here to watched this video because I recently saw Agallah being interviewed. I never knew Agallah aka Adolf the Assassin was the one that produced this song and put the Purple City thing together.
