Classic track.. one of my all time bangers! Whoever doesn’t like this song needs to get their eardrum recalibrated. One of their more recent bangers is “let your thoughts fly”
Dilated Peoples had a song called "This Way" with some up and coming rapper that was hot for a while. Good video. I think his name was like Kain West. Kayne? Wonder what happened to that guy...
DJ Babu is the DJ in Dilated Peoples. He's a member of the Beat Junkies as well. I used to listen to Dilated Peoples and Jurassic 5 non-stop back in the day. Absolutely love hip-hop with a DJ that scratches.
The thing about this track, is it speaks truth and still entertains. It goes hard, but still gives you a chill vibe. I still have no clue how they pulled this off, musical geniuses and legends
One of the smoothest tracks I've ever heard is "Wishes and Luck" by Cool Calm Pete. He's a Korean-American rapper and the beat to that song is one of my absolute favorites; very jazzy. Also "The Breakdown" by People Under the Stairs has an amazing jazzy beat.
Acid Raindrops - People Under the Stairs, Mr. Lif - Because they Made it that Way, Cannibal Ox - Scream Phoenix, Mystik Journeymen - The Odyssey or Voices
Yooooo Dilated Peoples!!! You gotta be the rap catalog of young hip hop heads reacting, straight up... you about to crest on some living legends, swollen members, eyedea, atmosphere, gang starr, Jurassic Five, Aesop rock, the orphanage, quail, slug & Murs... keep it up bruh ✊🏻 Hip hop changed my life, I was in a dark place, got turned onto graffiti, the elements, then sublime hit me with “KRS-ONE” track and never looked back
By listening to all this real hip hop. Your probably the coolest kid your age. Keep it alive. Teach your friends so the next generation doesn't become watered down. ✊
I saw them with Jurrasic 5 and MC Supernatural in DC back in 2002 or so. Fucking amazing. Don't understand why when they flow like that, they never national attention. And grant it, 20 some years later, you called out Alchemist style.
A little history for you my dude. Alchemist started out as a MC first from the group The Whooliganz. The great DJ MUGGS took him under his wing and presto ALC was born. Shout out to the Soul Assassins
I remember watching this early in the morning in Germany on mtv when it came out. Hip hop was truely a sub culture back then especially over here. Now its Mainstream and watered down
Yes, guy! Pretty sure this IS an Alchemist beat, but DJ Babu has a very similar style, and is an OG... And these guys were a huge part of the west coast indie scene in the 90s onwards... Legends... A LOT of great tracks, you'll hardly find a bad one... Dig into anyone attached to these guys, bro: the rabbit hole for hip-hop goes deeeeeep... Maybe check "Back Again": the music vid has all their buddies in it (including Alchemist, and my bro Moka Onky) Cheers! Love it!
Really enjoy your channel. Growing up in the 80’s I understand and can relate to your pleasant reaction to that era of music. Especially the Beastie Boys. I like how you mix it up with rap metal and rock. I would love for you to find an alternative band called The Jam. I would like to hear your commentary of one of their famous songs that’s called Thats Entertainment. Thanks and keep up the good work.
This song is such an old vibe. Many memories after hearing it after 8 years
That's GURU from Gangstar .. talking in the middle.. this group gets lots of respect in rap.. got a song with Kanye west too ..
"The Platform" is another great Dilated Peoples song from this era. "Triple Optics" another gem.

Dilated, like dilated pupils. Not duh-lated.
Alchemists step brother is one the rappers in DP (evidence)
Ev and Al are not actual Step Brothers. Lol They have a group together called "Step Brothers" tho. .😉💙
That was dope. Noice! Check out The Pharcyde - Drop

Cypress Hill Soul Assassins for Life..Back Again! Dilated
@@TreezyE83 cypress my favorite all time!!!
Dilated People - show me the way. California legends. They don't get the respect they deserve outside of Cali

I just need you to listen anything Little Brother, but for sure it’s gotta be Lovin’ It
I like that right away you spotted that the beat was made by Alchemist.
Same sample was used in “growing pains” by ludacris the same year. Love that one too.
At 2:23 Answered your own speculation of who did the beat. Alchemist.
You are officially the reaction king!!!! Keep doing your thing Youngblood.. Shout out from NYC!!!
Dilated Peoples and Black Eyed Peas was a fire show back in 2003
The thing about this track, is it speaks truth and still entertains. It goes hard, but still gives you a chill vibe. I still have no clue how they pulled this off, musical geniuses and legends
DJ BABU!!!!!
Classic joint we used to bump at the picnics n cookouts
The Alcoholiks:Daaam...or Next Level;)
I recommend "Work the Angles" from Dilated Peoples. I love the beat in that one
Dilated Peoples are, Evidence (emcee/producer), Rakaa Iriescience (emcee extraordinaire), and DJ Babu (Beat Junkies, World DMC Champion)
React to Dilated Peoples - The Platform!!
Saw these dudes with Rage Against the Machine... Bomb ass show!!
No we are talking conscious Hip Hop.you are Rockin with the best now.. Cypress Hill Soul AssassinS for Life,Dilated people
GREAT song. Kudos for searching it out.
Nobody in these comments mentioned Jurassic 5 yet? Shameful...

Dope song. From a white 50y old Canadian. Hip hop should unite.

I hope you already listened to their albums, they are such an outstanding crew💥😊
Hieroglyphics all things
Del the funky homosapien

I introduced my son to this song when he was 10, it's one of his faves
There's a music video for this also. And yeah Alchemist made the beat. Good call!
Nice work on your videos - thoughts on doing Boogie Down Productions - My Philosophy or anything from that album
Acid Raindrops - People Under the Stairs, Mr. Lif - Because they Made it that Way, Cannibal Ox - Scream Phoenix, Mystik Journeymen - The Odyssey or Voices

Bro you are on a roll. Hittin all the right songs
No Retreat feat B-Real. I am pretty sure Alchemist produced most of their first album The Platform. Or co-produced with Evidence.
Music is therapy - Word!!!
By listening to all this real hip hop. Your probably the coolest kid your age. Keep it alive. Teach your friends so the next generation doesn't become watered down. ✊
Great job cousin
GURU flows forever! His touch is everywhere. Yeah, Pharcyde needs to be on your radar. The DROP video was one of a kind. Hope you check that out next.
The video for this song has some scenes that were filmed at the world trade centre 4 days before 9/11
DJ Babu !!!!!Alchemist 💯
Ahmad we need at least 1 Dilated Peoples album reaction. I really enjoy The Platform. If you see this on this old video, it's written in the stars 😂
I saw them with Jurrasic 5 and MC Supernatural in DC back in 2002 or so. Fucking amazing. Don't understand why when they flow like that, they never national attention. And grant it, 20 some years later, you called out Alchemist style.
You should listen to DJ BABU from Dilated People
These guys dope as shit
You removed the rapper tier list ranking video as I was watching it there was only 4 min left on the video😔
Killah Priest was the first I heard with this beat on thr Heavy Mental album.
Yo Ahmed do you dabble in hip hop at all? You seem like a chill dude bro! Keep up the vids
Alchemist and Evidence grew up together in LA.
You're Right! MUSIC IS THERAPY! R.I.P GURU! Your Reactions Are Sick! Keep It Up Homie! 100% And Do More Gangstarr
Alchemist and Evidence grew up in LA together
Have you done Shook Ones by Mobb Deep? You are all into the right stuff. For sure. Awesome seeing these young heads finding the real.
I love this song! Dilated peoples are so good.
Still one of my favorite songs
A little history for you my dude. Alchemist started out as a MC first from the group The Whooliganz. The great DJ MUGGS took him under his wing and presto ALC was born. Shout out to the Soul Assassins
