Mos Def did a remix of Childrens Story on Black Star... thats prbly why u recognize it. Also, the Walk on By sample is similar to a classic pop song and a track on Donuts. I have the 30th anniversary box set of this, and theres a passage from Nas in the booklet saying that Hey Young World is what got him into hip hop and out of the streets, so yeah this album is extremely influential.
He likely remembers the beat from "This Is How We Do It" by Montell Jordan. Even if he never listened to it he heard it, it was too huge and everywhere, radio, tv shows, commercials. It was inescapable.
Deltron 3030 is a lot of fun and honestly one of the most overlooked albums of all time. El-P's early stuff (Funcrusher Plus, The Cold Vein and Fantastic Damage) is essential. Organized Konfusion's first two albums are great as well. All stuff to enjoy when you get the chance.
I hope we get Lupe Fiasco - The Cool Nas - It was written Dmx- flesh of my flesh Mobb Deep - Hell on earth Method Man - Tical ODB - return to the 36 chambers Ghostface Killah - Ironman Dr. Dre - The Chronic Dr. Dre - The Chronic 2001 Soon!!
Let's hope we also get: Bone Thugs-N-Harmony - E. 1999 Eternal Geto Boys - We Can't Be Stopped Jay-Z - In My Lifetime, Vol. 1 Lil Wayne - Tha Carter III Snoop Dogg - Doggystyle Three 6 Mafia - World Domination UGK - Super Tight 2Pac - Strictly 4 My N'z
Bizarre Ride II the Pharcyde would be crazy! The sound is way more evolved (it’s released in 92) and the flows & beats are really impressive. One of my all time favorites for sure.
In regards to Young World, I don't know of anyone that took it the wrong way at the time. Of course that's antidotal, but the amount of listens bears that out. I understand what you're saying, but it's not like Rick is coming from a perspective of not knowing. He grew up in it so he's coming from the perspective of a lived life. It's like going to AA and your sponsor is in recovery. He's not some guy trying to tell you not to drink and he's never took a sip. He's lived the life and made it out of it and trying to pass on to the younger generation what he's learned.
Absolutely correct and taking it a step further, hip-hop culture extends coast to coast and not all black youth grew up in the hood. Even those that did, didn't mean they didn't have someone there guiding them the right way.
Now this is a cool ass reaction. Not many react to old school albums. Like LL Cool J stuff 14 shots to the dome and much of his catalogue, Gangstarr, Eric B & Rakim... there's some gold stuff man. Applaud you for this, for diving deeper into what shaped hip-hop.
Bob, are we going to have a reaction to Purple Rain by Prince since this years marks it's 40th years anniversary? It's one of those records that you gotta hear at least once in your life
I feel like Slick Rick broke a lot of rules for rappers back in the day. I remember my cousin playing this for me when I was 10 and I just got stuck on SR for life. He influenced everyone from Nas to MF Doom, to Snoop Dogg to Yasiin Bey (Mos Def)… he just had a tremendous talent of hitting funny, smart, raunchy, hard lyrics. Sometimes all in the same song.
It’s cool that you reviewed this album I was hoping that you’ve heard it after I saw your review of Jay-Z’s Blueprint album, specifically the rulers back which he got from Slick Rick
I think most of the 90's legends grew up on this album and Slick Rick in general lol. Ive heard both Snoop and Em do interpolation of Slick Rick songs (I think hes Snoop favorite) Nas has a song where he says "Slick Rick was like Jesus, G Rap wrote the Bible"; Biggie took Hyonotize chorus off of "La Di Da Di" and so on.
DJ but sometimes producer. Run DMC started off with Larry Smith ("Orange Krush") on their first two albums, then Rick Rubin for their third, etc. Jay might have done some production, but to claim JMJ as their main producer is to be incorrect af.
Hey Bob, hope you get to read this! I've just translated Brazil's rap magnum opus, that stood 26 years without a proper, easily acessible translation. Racionais MC's - Sobrevivendo no Inferno, the most influential rap album of my country's history. Would be glad if you and anyone else who reads this could give it a listen sometime!
Slick Rick's main man in his early career Vance Wright had a huge influence on him. Vance taught me how to use Pro Tools back in the day, and when I first met him he was smoking a cigarette with like a footlong pair of tweezers and holding it away himself between puffs like a gangsta gentleman. He was cool af and had that OG Slick Rick swag to him.
An important thing to note about the “producer solo shit” is that breakdancing in clubs was still HUGE in hip hop culture, so having extended instrumental sections helped get club play. You should listen to Paid in Full by Eric B and Rakim. It’s from 87 and has a few entirely instrumental songs by Eric B.
There is no one like Slick Rick, and this album is proof. He has been sampled by countless artists, from vocals, production, even his accent. Hey Young World is my favorite hip hop song of all time, that will never change. I recall Scarface of the Ghetto saying the same thing.
@Bob the poppop The message of Hey Young World was my guiding light for a lot of situations. I grew up in foster homes most of my life and that song was a ray of light. I never heard anybody speak with so much sense. It had a huge impact on me and my friends. Growing up without a support system this song is everything but condescending. It was a life line to me and a lot of ghetto kids showing that there is an alternative mentality to live by.
Hope you get around to more 80s rap albums... my favorite being Ultramagnetic MCs - Critical Beatdown. The production on that album was so ahead of its time and Kool Keith has a style like no one else. And of course if you havent heard them: Paid in Full, Follow the Leader, Strictly Business, Straight Outta Compton, Long Live the Kane, Criminal Minded.
Yo Bob....IDH HOW I MISSED THIS VIDEO! Rick originally hit the scene when he was featured on 2 records (La Di Da Di & The Show) with Dougie Fresh but this was his 1st album and it was a LEGENDARY CLASSIC! Then he shot his cousin and went to jail 🤦🏿♂🤣
A little context...This album was highly anticipated due to his success with Doug E Fresh (The Show and La Di Da Di) 2-3 years before this. Both are hip hop classics. The biggest song on this album was Children's Story which was later sampled by Montell Jordan(This Is How We Do It). Mona Lisa was the next biggest. Let's Get Crazy was well produced but wasn't big, pretty much a cool album cut. Honestly NEVER heard it at a party. Indian Girl definitely problematic in retrospect but at the time it was easy to be distracted by the ridiculousness up to the punchline. Teenage Love and Hey Young World were pretty well received at the time.
I kinda miss this era of just having fun, not taking the music overly seriously and having funny lyrics that are purposefully written to make you laugh out loud, I'm not an old head, I'm 21 and I like Playboi Carti, Ken Carson, Destroy Lonely, Homixide Gang and others but you know they're not gangsters even if they act like they are, acting all mysterious and shit, this applies to most rappers, which makes me appreciate the hip-hop beginnings the older I get, especially Slick Rick
You should look into Jam Master Jays story it’s pretty interesting. From being the Dj and producer for Run DMC, to his murder in 2002 which was unsolved until a couple weeks ago when 2 men were found guilty for his murder.
Victory Lap, Makaveli, Doggystyle, It Was Written. Can't believe you've only listened to 1 Nas album this far into your journey through hip hop. Arguably the greatest lyricist of all time.
Westside Gunn actually brought Slick Rick in for a feature on his WHO MADE THE SUNSHINE album as a sequel to Children's Story. Its a song about a man going down the wrong path, though Slick Rick himself is the one behind the bad ending. It is fittingly titled "Good Night," which is what Slick Rick said to close Children's Story.
They was sampling on this album. A guy named Marley Marl invented chopping up samples in the mid 80’s. He just got a lifetime achievement award this year. By 88 every hip hop producer was using his sampling method to make records. The way you thought the music was done by a dj looping a part over was only done in the 1970’s at the Park Jams before they started recording hip hop songs in the studio.
I appreciate your reviews, but you completely missed on Hey Young World. Emphasis on young, its not the message for a 40 year old thats lived life, but for young teenagers - a perfect message that resonates today.
I really hope you'll do another Freddie Gibbs album and Big L - Lifestylez ov da poor and dangerous! We need to see the reaction to those insane punchlines😂
When you get a minute you should check out the 2 songs with Dougie Fresh: 1. La-Di-da-Di ruclips.net/video/taBFnWMSeAc/видео.htmlsi=Ru_A5wFsDBVMgL4w 2. The Show ruclips.net/video/HTvXI9PpJ8U/видео.htmlsi=QwFJBkdXOiZ6NuKu
The Moment I Feared is the most underrated classic hip hop song ever. Should be WAYYYY more openly praised. Kit, What’s The Scoop and Lick The Balls are perfection as well.
Slick Rick wrote young world for his son he blew up as rapper but shot a man and went to jail for 5 years and is rapping experiences of not going down that path he went; especially his son
One of the main things that attracted us to Slick Rick and this album in 88 was the fact that no one rapped with the cadence of Rick and no one rapped in a british accent (with the exception of Dana Dane whom was apart of Rick's crew) and the production style was a bit different than a lot of the tracks that were out in 88. Rick brought witty story telling to the game and his fashion with the huge chains and eye patch set him apart from the rest of the pack.
Nas ,snoop ,EM ....so many people have copied,quoted,sampled Slick Rick .That´s why he makes my top 10 list . i dont remember alot of people rapping like him when he dropped
Yo! I've really tuned in your videos lately and i would really like to watch you react to some Mac Demarco.I know this kind of music isn't really familiar with you but give it a try! iwould suggest listening to "this old dog". great album
Bob , when Slick Rick was getting greased where nobody dared was sounded so awful, his cries scared me as a 16 year old kid in '88. Him not giving a fuck back then when gayinism wasn't accepted to even mention that on that album about himself was quite amazing.
You should check out, or at least add to your list of albums to check out, onf of Sematary's albums. He's an absolutely fantastic underground artist who takes heavy influence from chief keef, but is also extremely unique, experimental, often also taking influence from black metal in terms of his themes and "aura" if you will. I recommend butcher or rainbow bridge 3 house if you want something more intense, or rainbow bridge 1 if you want something more mellow in terms of what exact albums
This was a funny one, first time hearing it during this very reaction lol. Thank you Bob for shedding some light on the people suffering in Gaza too ❤❤

![Mos Def - Auditorium (featuring Slick Rick) [Audio]](/img/tr.png)
SLICK RICK SAID TREAT EM LIKE A PROSTITUTE
yo sematary
Canceled
on international women’s day 🤣🤣
You’ve deeeffiinitely heard Children’s Story. A hip-hop classic that was huuggee, but then also sampled by Montell Jordan in “This Is How We Do It.”
His heard Blackstars/Mos Def version of Children Story.
It was also on GTA San Andreas
Also Nas on cops shot the kid
Oh my god that song played on the radio as I got to that part of the video and I thought I was going senile and hearing two of them at the same time.
Some of the lyrics were re-used too. To great effect
Mos Def did a remix of Childrens Story on Black Star... thats prbly why u recognize it. Also, the Walk on By sample is similar to a classic pop song and a track on Donuts.
I have the 30th anniversary box set of this, and theres a passage from Nas in the booklet saying that Hey Young World is what got him into hip hop and out of the streets, so yeah this album is extremely influential.
He likely remembers the beat from "This Is How We Do It" by Montell Jordan. Even if he never listened to it he heard it, it was too huge and everywhere, radio, tv shows, commercials. It was inescapable.
He actually reacted to Mos Def one though
The only time I’ve heard this sample is from Nas, that’s dope it’s been sampled a lot
Never thought Bob would ever listen to this lmao
Deltron 3030 is a lot of fun and honestly one of the most overlooked albums of all time. El-P's early stuff (Funcrusher Plus, The Cold Vein and Fantastic Damage) is essential. Organized Konfusion's first two albums are great as well. All stuff to enjoy when you get the chance.
for real, deltron 3030 is the truth. bob would enjoy the hell of it, specially because it is a sci fi concept album
I hope we get
Lupe Fiasco - The Cool
Nas - It was written
Dmx- flesh of my flesh
Mobb Deep - Hell on earth
Method Man - Tical
ODB - return to the 36 chambers
Ghostface Killah - Ironman
Dr. Dre - The Chronic
Dr. Dre - The Chronic 2001
Soon!!
I could not have made a better post than this one. Those first 2 I have been waiting on SOOO long
Bob will love Ironman by Ghostface
@@rare_form I know but I think it’ll be a long while before he gets to it. I don’t even think he has it on his list.
Let's hope we also get:
Bone Thugs-N-Harmony - E. 1999 Eternal
Geto Boys - We Can't Be Stopped
Jay-Z - In My Lifetime, Vol. 1
Lil Wayne - Tha Carter III
Snoop Dogg - Doggystyle
Three 6 Mafia - World Domination
UGK - Super Tight
2Pac - Strictly 4 My N'z
Wait bob hasn’t heard the Chronic yet??
If you enjoy this album, you'd also love Bizarre Ride II the Pharcyde by the Pharcyde. It has the same vibe.
And way better imo. Bizarre Ride is probably one of my top 10 favorite hip-hop albums. I hope he checks it out eventually.
Bizarre Ride II the Pharcyde would be crazy! The sound is way more evolved (it’s released in 92) and the flows & beats are really impressive. One of my all time favorites for sure.
Slick Rick is the most sampled snd quoted and bitten emcee of all time. This album particularly has inspired so much.
In regards to Young World, I don't know of anyone that took it the wrong way at the time. Of course that's antidotal, but the amount of listens bears that out. I understand what you're saying, but it's not like Rick is coming from a perspective of not knowing. He grew up in it so he's coming from the perspective of a lived life.

Absolutely correct and taking it a step further, hip-hop culture extends coast to coast and not all black youth grew up in the hood. Even those that did, didn't mean they didn't have someone there guiding them the right way.
This album is so iconic and influential it makes no sense... ALL OF THE TOP MCS MAKE SOME SORT OF REFERENCE TO THIS ALBUM
You have got to, got to, got to, GOT TO listen to La Di Da Di, Bob. That is Slick Rick at his absolute best before this album was released.
Now this is a cool ass reaction. Not many react to old school albums. Like LL Cool J stuff 14 shots to the dome and much of his catalogue, Gangstarr, Eric B & Rakim... there's some gold stuff man. Applaud you for this, for diving deeper into what shaped hip-hop.

NICE PICK BOB!
Would love to see you check out Moment Of Truth by Gangstarr (Dj Premier and Guru)!
He definitely needs to do Gangstarr
Are you going to do more of Slick Rick's albums? I personally love Behind Bars
Classicccc. Slick rick and rakim laid such a huge foundation and blue print for the 90’s rappers to come
Slick Rick,rakim and nwa singlehanded influenced the rap game and changed it.
Slick Rick definitely influenced Snoops flow
I think most of the 90's legends grew up on this album and Slick Rick in general lol.
Ive heard both Snoop and Em do interpolation of Slick Rick songs (I think hes Snoop favorite)
Nas has a song where he says "Slick Rick was like Jesus, G Rap wrote the Bible"; Biggie took Hyonotize chorus off of "La Di Da Di" and so on.
Jam Master Jay was Run DMC’s main producer if I recall correctly
Yeah he was RIP
Dj and producer
DJ but sometimes producer. Run DMC started off with Larry Smith ("Orange Krush") on their first two albums, then Rick Rubin for their third, etc. Jay might have done some production, but to claim JMJ as their main producer is to be incorrect af.
The excellence of Mona Lisa went over your head.
Stakes is high, bahloone mindstate hopefully on the list!!!!
Does he know Rick is from the UK?
I was waiting for Bob and community to bring up the accent and reason why. You did 😉
Wasn’t expecting this one.. you rock Bob!
Jay-Z made a song on the blueprint called "The Ruler's Back" and it of course is a reference to this song
Hey Bob, hope you get to read this!
I've just translated Brazil's rap magnum opus, that stood 26 years without a proper, easily acessible translation. Racionais MC's - Sobrevivendo no Inferno, the most influential rap album of my country's history. Would be glad if you and anyone else who reads this could give it a listen sometime!

this man HAS to hear Dance With The Devil, one of the greatest storytelling songs EVER!
Yes but tbh, the rest of the album is not that good. I think that Revolutionary Vol. 2 is way better
There is no one like Slick Rick, and this album is proof. He has been sampled by countless artists, from vocals, production, even his accent.
Hey Young World is my favorite hip hop song of all time, that will never change. I recall Scarface of the Ghetto saying the same thing.
🗣️ knock em out the box rick

I’m so glad u reviewed this. Was a reminder for me to listen to it. Which I’ve done nonstop for days now. Amazing album.
I CANNOT wait for The Cool! The first rap album I ever listened to and still love to this day!
Hope you get around to more 80s rap albums... my favorite being Ultramagnetic MCs - Critical Beatdown. The production on that album was so ahead of its time and Kool Keith has a style like no one else.

16:57 you have. This was sampled on this is how we do it which you must have heard before bc it was a huge hit
Rick didn't have to do me so dirty. I helped the kid out after all.
Bob I LOVE that you did this. You will now be able to pick up on so many hip hop references. The homage paid the this album extends so many years.
This one is a classic!
A little context...This album was highly anticipated due to his success with Doug E Fresh (The Show and La Di Da Di)
2-3 years before this. Both are hip hop classics. The biggest song on this album was Children's Story which was

at the time.
It was written next week bob I’m begging you
I kinda miss this era of just having fun, not taking the music overly seriously and having funny lyrics that are purposefully written to make you laugh out loud, I'm not an old head, I'm 21 and I like Playboi Carti, Ken Carson, Destroy Lonely, Homixide Gang and others but you know they're not gangsters even if they act like they are, acting all mysterious and shit, this applies to most rappers, which makes me appreciate the hip-hop beginnings the older I get, especially Slick Rick

Had to watch for hey young world, shit is timeless
Get you some EPMD while you're in '88.
You explaining "The Moment I Feared" LMAOOOOO
You gotta do more of these old influential albums. Nwa straight outta Compton album is a good one that holds up.
Victory Lap, Makaveli, Doggystyle, It Was Written. Can't believe you've only listened to 1 Nas album this far into your journey through hip hop. Arguably the greatest lyricist of all time.

It is fittingly titled "Good Night," which is what Slick Rick said to close Children's Story.
children’s story was one of the first rap songs i heard that i messed with heavy !! was so cool seeing you react to it
you gotta react to RjMrLa one of these days Ommio, Ommio 2, Ommio 3 Rich off mackin, Rich off mackin 2, MrLa, are all GREAT albums by Rj.
I’d pay to watch him review “Adults Only” from The Art of Story Telling… the song that says “in the b-hole”
We was dancing hard in the club to a tragic story 😂. Childrens Story & Mona Lisa got it rocking.
Ignore the content. Slick Rick introduced Story Telling to hip hop.
Crazy part is... this isn't even his best albulm.. it's just an introduction to The Ruler Rick
They was sampling on this album. A guy named Marley Marl invented chopping up samples in the mid 80’s. He just got a lifetime achievement award this year. By 88 every hip hop producer was using his sampling method to make records. The way you thought the music was done by a dj looping a part over was only done in the 1970’s at the Park Jams before they started recording hip hop songs in the studio.
The Ruler's Back is covered by Jay Z on The Blueprint. Jam Master Jay (RIP) was the producer of Run DMC
MONKEY BARZ BY SEAN PRICE. SUPER UNDERRATED
Slick Rick was born in London to Jamaican immigrants, and moved to NYC when he was little.
KISSLAND BY THE WEEKND IM BEGGING BOB.
No. Not good
Bob....you were *very* fortunate to find love at a very young age. These woman aren't anywhere as close to innocent as you believe though.
give it time, give it time. poor fella
Scarface "Untouchable" "The Diary" "TheWorld is Yours" "Made" albums are a must...his Tiny Desk performance is more then worthy as well
I appreciate your reviews, but you completely missed on Hey Young World. Emphasis on young, its not the message for a 40 year old thats lived life, but for young teenagers - a perfect message that resonates today.
this is a classic but i need more ugly mane reactions bob
have you checked out any immortal technique? one song in particular id like to see you react to (Dance with the devil)
I really hope you'll do another Freddie Gibbs album and Big L - Lifestylez ov da poor and dangerous! We need to see the reaction to those insane punchlines😂
love from Finland! u NEED to hear some stuff from KRS-One, one of the greatest and from the same time as Slick Rick
Asked For This So Long I thought u was never gonna do it 😂
Great Reaction 💥😁
When you get a minute you should check out the 2 songs with Dougie Fresh:
1. La-Di-da-Di ruclips.net/video/taBFnWMSeAc/видео.htmlsi=Ru_A5wFsDBVMgL4w
2. The Show ruclips.net/video/HTvXI9PpJ8U/видео.htmlsi=QwFJBkdXOiZ6NuKu
The Moment I Feared is the most underrated classic hip hop song ever. Should be WAYYYY more openly praised. Kit, What’s The Scoop and Lick The Balls are perfection as well.
with her yay wide gap... her mouth "you're lyng out your damn mouth"
This is definitely a 1980s rap album. All the hallmarks of the beginnings of sampling and storytelling.
Slick Rick wrote young world for his son he blew up as rapper but shot a man and went to jail for 5 years and is rapping experiences of not going down that path he went; especially his son
Hey bob You should next react to, It Was Written album By Nas
You have to do Queen Latifa's first album now
This Is How We Do It by Montell Jordan samples Children's Story by Slick Rick.
Was not expecting Bob to reference leroy jenkins
But Dr. Rick, how does one reach a position to scoop if one does not treat girlie well until you're sure of said scoop?
One of the main things that attracted us to Slick Rick and this album in 88 was the fact that no one rapped with the cadence of Rick and no one rapped in a british accent (with the exception of Dana Dane whom was apart of Rick's crew) and the production style was a bit different than a lot of the tracks that were out in 88. Rick brought witty story telling to the game and his fashion with the huge chains and eye patch set him apart from the rest of the pack.
Having the message of "hey young world" and "treat em like a prostitute" on the same album is kinda weird.
The Slick Rizzler
48:25 That was the same sample used on Doja Cat's album Scarlet Paint the town red
Every male cat I have ever had was slow and dumb. Your kitties will mellow out lol
Holy shit yeah right. What a fantastic surprise for Friday baby
Talk about classic. This is extremely influential on The art form.
You need to listen to De La Soul Is Dead I think you would love the style and get a good laugh from it.
This is like having Hip-Hop's rookie card.
Nas ,snoop ,EM ....so many people have copied,quoted,sampled Slick Rick .That´s why he makes my top 10 list . i dont remember alot of people rapping like him when he dropped
for another classic album you should try guru's jazzmataz 1, i think you would enjoy it
Yo! I've really tuned in your videos lately and i would really like to watch you react to some Mac Demarco.I know this kind of music isn't really familiar with you but give it a try! iwould suggest listening to "this old dog". great album
Bob , when Slick Rick was getting greased where nobody dared was sounded so awful, his cries scared me as a 16 year old kid in '88. Him not giving a fuck back then when gayinism wasn't accepted to even mention that on that album about himself was quite amazing.
his The Art of Storytelling album is fire
Hey Bob listen to The Rulers Back then go listen to Jay Z The Rulers Back you'll hear some similarities lol
Just bc you have a tough life doesn't mean you have to do bad things imo. And children's story was sampled by this is how we do it
You should check out, or at least add to your list of albums to check out, onf of Sematary's albums. He's an absolutely fantastic underground artist who takes heavy influence from chief keef, but is also extremely unique, experimental, often also taking influence from black metal in terms of his themes and "aura" if you will. I recommend butcher or rainbow bridge 3 house if you want something more intense, or rainbow bridge 1 if you want something more mellow in terms of what exact albums
jay-z covered "the ruler's back" on the blueprint.
This was a funny one, first time hearing it during this very reaction lol. Thank you Bob for shedding some light on the people suffering in Gaza too ❤❤
heard Children’s Story when I was 12 years old, have been a Hip Hop head ever since
