OMG!!!! I FORGOT ABOUT THIS SONG!!!! I have wasted so much time at work, thinking back about what I was doing when I first heard this song. Music is everything!!! gets you hard times, makes the good times better. creates lifelong memories
Crystal F. only thing I remember when we was driving Out from the state Mississippi to Louisiana Going to Texas to see our Family When I here this song for the first time memories
When I was younger, I gravitated to groups like this, A Tribe Called Called Quest, and The Infamous Roots...with a Jazzy ass baseline and lyrical contents with a message but my homies looked at me crazy but now everybody on their dick! Recognize greatness! RIP Dilla
...this is like yoga to my ears, NO CURSING THE LADIES, NO HAILING DRUGS, NO GUN VIOLENCE.... THE WAY HIPHOP IS SUPPOSED TO BE ...IT'S ALL ABOUT " REPRESENTING "
Well MiLady, I have been married for over twenty (20) years and I guess my wife knew something because this has ALWAYS been my steelo; perhaps, we were destined for each other because I learned that she loved Pete Rock and CL Smooth and it was a wrap. So, missed you, sorry,🌚
One thing I hate about being my age is that I can never really experience how it was when music like this first came out. Things like buying their cds when it came out, watching the videos, seeing them live etc..., I wish I could feel that experience.
rocknrap12 You know, I took all of that for granted. I loved waiting for videos to premiere on TV, buying CDs and actually having to listen to them repeatedly to learn lyrics, flipping through radio stations and being torn by MULTIPLE ones because they all played good music... Don't take your music scene for granted; who knows what the future holds.
It was awesome hate you missed out the feeling you get when you hear these songs from back then and see the videos drum up those emotions you get to experience that feeling over and over again it's bliss
In the realm of Hip Hop, the 'Golden-Era' is a term used to define a period when the genre was at it's best and most brilliant. Typically the early 90's, more specifically starting in '93 when Wu-Tang and Tribe dropped 36 Chambers and Midnight Marauders (on the same day!). It was when Hip Hop was beaming with artists like Gang Starr, Outkast, Goodie Mobb, Nas, Biggie, Jay-Z, Mobb Deep, Group Home, The Roots, Das EFX, EPMD,... etc, etc... and shining unlike any decade or era we've seen thus far.
OH MANNNNNN!!!! This was my song!!!! This song is hott I looove it!!!! It's REAL authentic Hip hop! Just realized Dwele was singing this song w/ Slum Village!! BET needs to play REAL Hip hop like this!!!! This is a JAMMMM!!!!
this song never gets old and I still bump it. the words all hit and about the music business as well. respect and RIP J Dilla. Dwele Brought the vocals on this jam.
I strongly encourage any fans of Dilla's to read the 33 1/3 book about the Donuts album. Really great insight into his life, including the early days with Slum Village
not ashamed to say that it took me 2.5 hours to look this song up after hearing 10 seconds of it today...last time I heard it was probably before 2010...so many memories...even tho I was like 9 when I first heard this track
This Time period of Music was so Pure in its Form: real hip hop & videos that actually compliment the song: not everybody just flashing guns or women naked to make the video, or just clear vanity of cars & money. This music had substance: WORD.
Damn!!!!!! I'm 42 now, but dis shit smoov takin me back to my early "Playa" years when I was type gamin 'em.....LOL. Thank thee Orishas for condoms...LOL!
The second verse was always my favourite, because its so true. "Integrity, Heart, Soul" is more important than anything. NEVER lose your soul for money. RIP Baatin, God Bless u, your family and your SV Crew.
I miss everything about these times. I would turn on vh1 soul or 106 and park. I was only about 13 or 14 and was so eager to grow up because my mom was so strict, but I would always hear the messages in these songs. It was all about love. Self love. Real love. Growing up was inevitable and I did take my time but now here I am at 31 and the world has changed. How sad that we can't rewind to the good times. I would re live out my worst embarrassments and my most painful memories just to have the good times that came with them just one more time. I wouldn't change anything, just re-live those beautiful innocent moments. Music is a time machine. You can play an old song and remember where you were, who was in the background, every detail. Its crazy.
Wow man... recently I found this clip on IG and I was like “No way, how could I forget these guys? I was so damn young during that time” ... shocked that two guys in this group passed away 🙏🏾

This is true hip-hop man.
My kinda Hip-Hop. Damn this is dope!!
HeroesNStuff sho nuff!!
lol yep
Not just yours!
I remember watching these videos back in 2002 on my way to college.
Crazy that it's almost 20 years now. Yikes!
This was my jam back then. I didn't know the group or the members but I do remember watching this video on BET every day. This brings back memories.
One of my favorite groups. They were all down to earth. Glad I was able to play a role in this video.😉
I remember seeing this on 106 and Park the good old one with AJ and Free. Good times
Those were the days. Always use to look forward to see this video. 106 and park was the show of the day.
My D town Anthem still pumping this ♡♡♡♡ so much soul and integrity : ).
(Applause) This sounds like what a bottle of aged fine wine tastes.
Not only does it sound aged very well, it’s also relevant to toxicity in today’s society and music industry. They really were ahead of their time.
Who else is here in 2019 🙌❤️
Me this will always be my jam
Tracey it's November 2019 I'm checking in 🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹
Yo this song is timeless for me.....
Tracey uh me! :)
Bronx Nyc in here 2019 classic!
Wow this is one of my favorite from them. I still remember all the words. We need this kind of music in 2017-2018😍❤️❤️❤️😘
Always maintain that integrity, heart, and soul. Thank you SV
My soul rises to this
TheLooseFace ,,🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
This chorus is addictive. I love the way the voices bounce off the bass and synth!
This song will never get old..2019 who still not tainted???
Will forever love this song, makes me feel mad calm and nostalgic♥️♥️
IN THIS ERA OF SOCIAL MEDIA & MICROWAVE RESULTS,,,,,NEVER FORGET THE ART OF PERSONAL CONVERSATION!!!!!💐💐💐
It seems like the soul in music today is gone. Its not completely gone but its hanging on by a thread
+Donovan Beavers Kendrick the only one who brought it back
+dirtyplaya yea, just barely. Even he teeters on the edge....
+Sunshine96818 What makes you say that?
+Donovan Beavers hiatus kaiyote. Nuff said.
+Sunshine96818 I agree someone that does music with lady gaga has no musical taste or soul.
This is when hip hop was 👌🏽🗣🔥🔥🔥🔥
Song brings back memories of the long ride to watch the Atlanta Falcons play back in 2002 and my uncle would turn this song on. Good times
Still in love with this classic
Damn, I miss music like this...thank goodness for mp3's.
Driving off to college my freshman year with this booming out my speakers... The feelings and memories dude!
RIP Dilla and Baatin

00's was dope, used to wish i was of age for the 90s era but didnt appreciate the 2000's. Don't know what you've got till it's gone
When hip hop left the mainstream
I so wish they can make music like this again. Reminds me of a nice, cloudy Friday afternoon
I’m so behind on sweet grooves, I embarrass myself. This is delightful. Sweet and low and very easy on the eyes . Beautiful sound and vision
Love this and (closer) love men that jam to this!!!
I strongly encourage any fans of Dilla's to read the 33 1/3 book about the Donuts album. Really great insight into his life, including the early days with Slum Village

This song is timeless and I love the fact that the works of Justin Bua was a main element and inspiration for the video
This was the best of my childhood ❤
As a Texas lady, I was glad when Detroit taught me "blasasplee" or however you spell it.
maaann this song takes a brother back! always loved this smooth beat and hook with the gritty lyrics! home run!
seriously one of the best tracks ever comprised, jay dee on the instrumental, dwele on the back up vox with Slum Vil layin the verse... RIP B & JD
