What bothers me is they say Eminem, Wayne, and all these other newer rappers are better 🤣🤣🤣…… I’m not saying they aren’t good but Big Daddy Kane is a lyricist!!
not a OG but gotta give props to one of the true GOD MC"S.......AND to any yungen......lets plz listen to the old school in order to make hip hop hip hop again
I learned how to speak English listening to HipHop and this was this first song I learned word by word in English 1989 when I first came to the US. BDK will forever be my favorite rapper.
The gold chains, the hair, the cloths, the style, the dancing, the lyrics... the entire way things were back then, oh man I wish I could have been around then
Now you talk about Swag this man was the epitome of Swag and still is the GOAT 🐐 Dapper Dan wearing , suede Bally wearing had the best hightop fade mad jewelry, mad ill lyrics and last but not least he had the illest dancers in the game Scoob and Scrap peace I'm done
Me and my son was just having a discussion about the rappers style and flow from back in my days vs his now. Anyway, I started rapping this song to him and now I'm here listening....cuz it sound so smoooth.
no autotune !! even though im a rocker at heart, i still appreciate all the rap/r&b/hiphop from the 80s and early 90s they were all artists back then, even when they sampled music fun times!
In 1990, 96.3 WHUR ( HOWARD UNIVERSITY RADIO) was playing this beautiful hip-hop classic heavy!! Beautiful times!! The legendary Antonio Hardy, aka BIG DADDY KANE my top 10 m.c.'s💯
A 🐐!! Without him there would be no JayZ! This man set the standard and the bar for rap. I love my era to me this is still where it is at. Biggie was just a teenager coming in to see Big Daddy Kanes live performances. Kane says, he was just BIg back then there was nothing notorious about him BUT a true GOAT respects his STUDENTS just as the student must respect the GOATS that have paved the way for them to express themselves.
They had no talent except the lead singer. The biggest male artist back then had a girls group. Prince had Va nity 6/Appolonia 6. Rick James had the Mary Jane Girls
He was one of my fav rappers. I had this cassette the day it came out in 89. I would check the record shop every tuesday for music I liked. I used to listen to this while I walked to school. Kane and Rakim were some of the first guys for me that took the rap style to next level. Before them it was alot of silly rhyming for the most part. Kane was a bit hardcore for most but not me. I was 12 and thought I was 20.
This song is surreal and it’s unlike any other rap song I’ve ever heard. There are some subtle hints of sampling here and there, and whoever produced the music on this one is a genius.
I'm 26 but my mom made sure when I had a music project in 6th grade I knew who big daddy Kane was 🤣🤣 and man after that I just really fell in love with hiphop
I watch the Big Daddy Kane Unsung the other day and he took rap to the next level. He also pave the way for rapper like Biggie, and Jay-Z. He brought swag to the rap game.
Great eyes. I have never caught the Chris Rock or Kwame in it before. I wonder how the heck Chris Rock ended up in this video? He wasn't really a thing yet. That's crazy.
Run DMC introduced me to rap music, but it was Kane that made me fall in love with it. This is the first rap song that I wrote down all the lyrics to. I just had to know all the words, so I could spit along, whenever it came on. I can still recite most of the song.
Who’s here in 2024? Respect to the OG!!!
Fuk yes
🙌🙌🙌

Always end up here
“Rappers act so wild, love to profile, frontin hard but ain’t got no style.” Truer words have never been spoken 😊
filthy from tha ground on up....
😂😂😂facts! He's been my favorite rapper since i was a baby
Facts 👏 💯
Hard
Especially in this day and age.
His style is so unique, a gentleman rapper, the suit, watches and rings the cadence and slickness in which he raps, this is great music.
Don't forget about the flat top!
because Big Daddy Kane is classy
I learned how to speak English listening to HipHop and this was this first song I learned word by word in English 1989 when I first came to the US. BDK will forever be my favorite rapper.
How can you know what they are saying without context or translation?
@@m.r.9127 our language borrowed from so many other countries origin language some words probably was familiar my guess 🤷🏾♂️
@@Yfg_ceo language learning is all input ruclips.net/video/J_EQDtpYSNM/видео.html
@@m.r.9127 I assume from their name they spoke Spanish as a first language
so the other guy’s totally right
Describing this as a CLASSIC is an understatement. This is an anthem and dissertation in lyricism.
FACTS!!
I hsve style grace remember.
I havestyleand grace remember,
True Indeed
Kane was the best spitta in the 80s him and Rakim
KRS 1 was a spitter two🎯
🎯
I agree Kane can still spit
Facts he was my favorite when I was a baby boy
I agree he on list but so is krs one, kool g, ll cool j, sir mix a lot, oh and run!!! But then again it’s my opinion 🤟🏽
Maaaan I’m so glad I grew up during this time💯
I just wanna say to all of you who are still listening to this in 2021. You have an amazing taste in music.
this is my first time hearing this
I'm here for studies.. but enjoyable..
Without no Kane, there's no HOV...gotta respect the game...LONG LIVE THE KANE
Well Thank you..
Ditto my friend 👍
I want to thank Big Daddy Kane for being one of the founding fathers of hip hop and especially for inspiring my favorite rapper Biggie.
Fr
Ikane is not a founding father of hip hop LMAO @@thewordmusic-x
He inspired Eminem as well. Em mentioned him several times.
2Pac aussi
Damn 4 verses?
Big Daddy”s style and flow is hella unique 🔥🔥🔥
Smooth
The gold chains, the hair, the cloths, the style, the dancing, the lyrics... the entire way things were back then, oh man I wish I could have been around then
Man same. I'm 15 and the late 80s and 90s seem awesome as hell.
@@e.m.p.3394 ikr man
Hip hop back them was so broad and different. No one sounded alike
@@e.m.p.3394 it was...trust me
Ah those were the days
This guy changed my whole perspective on life when I was 7. Been holding mey head up high since then. Peace and God bless

"Rappers act SO WILD and love to PROFILE
Frontin' hard but ain't got NO STYLE"
- BDK 👑🎧🎤
Big Daddy kane is one of the most complete rappers ever,could spit and tight flow,respect
😂😂❤
There was never anyone else who ever flowed like D Kane. His style was always unique.
For me it was Kane and special Ed....
@@kingsiahed had that flow
Rakim was smoother
@@newking70Rakim is the greatest. But Big Daddy Kane is up there.
@@thanosdoomjuggernaut2846ma dawg. Real Hip Hop over on this here thread - I got Ra at #1 too
My ERA of music... Man we was GETTIN IT in the 1980's and 1990's... Smooooth Operatorrrrrr
One of the greatest MASTERS of hiphop.

I just saw this comment exactly when he said it
I was too young to know how he was daring anybody,too try ,and diss him in the game at the time.
@@habenwelday632😂😂😂
Fire
Big Daddy Kane has smoothest flow in hip-hop history he's the definition of the greatest of all time
Flows like butter melting on a hot knife!
Slick Rick is probably smoother
I guess Notorious B.I.G was a tenis player then
Let's act like Rakim didn't exist eh?
I was 7 years old when this song came out. As a kid growing up in Brooklyn, I remember thinking "I want to be like Kane when I grow up" 😂
Me too!!
I was 16 in Newark
Facts
Now you talk about Swag this man was the epitome of Swag and still is the GOAT 🐐 Dapper Dan wearing , suede Bally wearing had the best hightop fade mad jewelry, mad ill lyrics and last but not least he had the illest dancers in the game Scoob and Scrap peace I'm done
Me and my son was just having a discussion about the rappers style and flow from back in my days vs his now.
Anyway, I started rapping this song to him and now I'm here listening....cuz it sound so smoooth.
Kane was that guy. Nobody is even getting close. Kane, Rakim , LL and Busta
When I was in High School we had a jukebox in our cafeteria, this was the main song that we would play everyday.
The man who made me love hip hop!
no autotune !!
even though im a rocker at heart, i still appreciate all the rap/r&b/hiphop from the 80s and early 90s
they were all artists back then, even when they sampled music
fun times!
Why is he so fine? Just tall and fine for no reason. I just love his face and voice. And of course, he to' that microphone up.
Classic track from a classic album. Kane was 21 with two classics under his belt and another one on the way. Kane is super slept on.
In 1990, 96.3 WHUR ( HOWARD UNIVERSITY RADIO) was playing this beautiful hip-hop classic heavy!! Beautiful times!! The legendary Antonio Hardy, aka BIG DADDY KANE my top 10 m.c.'s💯
Kane danced spit and best flattop ever
Smooth flat top ever.
Fantastic, first heard this in 1989, It still sounds fresh in 2022.
Big daddy was a beast, miss this type of music, here in 2022❤️❤️❤️
With you 💯💯💯💯
Still a beast 💪 💯
Kane still rocking 2024 and forever 😊😊
No Doubt Hands Down, Kane is my Top Five of Greatest MC's of All-Time! True Legend!!!!
A 🐐!! Without him there would be no JayZ! This man set the standard and the bar for rap. I love my era to me this is still where it is at. Biggie was just a teenager coming in to see Big Daddy Kanes live performances. Kane says, he was just BIg back then there was nothing notorious about him BUT a true GOAT respects his STUDENTS just as the student must respect the GOATS that have paved the way for them to express themselves.
Whole song aside, that opening beat is so tuff🔥the king is here
Big daddy Kane is truly a pioneer of rap!!!
The Mary Jane girls are kind of an obscure group, yet their song has been sampled like crazy.
Yes Sir, Keni Burks Risin’ To The Top Isaac Hayes’s Do Your Thang and
Mary Jane Girls’ All Night Long are the samples.👌🏿
They had no talent except the lead singer. The biggest male artist back then had a girls group. Prince had Va nity 6/Appolonia 6. Rick James had the Mary Jane Girls
Rick James and his stone city band made this track
Vanity 6 was good until she left Prince

I remember having posters up on my bedroom wall of Big Daddy Kane along with others back in 1992 when I was 8 years old.
I’m a 99’ baby, I didn’t get to experience this. I still cherish it like I was there tho
Childhood memories 😁
Best lyricist in hip-hop history . IDC about anyone else
One of my best from the rest of the 80 rappers.
forever one of hip hops all time Greatest Hits! to this day!!
This man along with LL and Rakim made me love hip hop.. 2022 and I still got cuts in my eyebrow trying to while out

BIG DADDY KANE IS THE GOAT!!!!!!!!!!!! YEAH I SAID IT!!!!!!!
Kane could be smooth and deadly at the same time when he rhymes!
I'm lucky , I witnessed that hip hop era !!!
I watch the Big Daddy Kane Unsung the other day and he took rap to the next level. He also pave the way for rapper like Biggie, and Jay-Z. He brought swag to the rap game.
Just a legend..what can you say
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO THE LEGENDARY BIG DADDY KANE!!!!
This album was dope from beginning to end
man what a vibe
Thanks, Kane for bringing us Dark Skinned [Black] men out there!
Classic...and Kim Porter/Al B. Sure! at 1:19, Chris Rock at 2:23 and Kwame at 3:47...
Great eyes. I have never caught the Chris Rock or Kwame in it before. I wonder how the heck Chris Rock ended up in this video? He wasn't really a thing yet. That's crazy.
@@rashb3994 I guess he was just an aspiring actor/comic...many others started doing Music Videos before their big break as well!
Goosebumps when it came on just now
This song could be on Handsome Boy's next album and nobody would even think it's out of place. That's how ahead of his time this guy was.
Or it shows how much they try to emulate him :)
he's so ahead of his time his parents haven't met him yet - Big L
I LOVE BIG DADDY KANE 🥰🥰🥰👌👌👌👌....DAY ONE FAN!!
respect to a pioneer and a father of rap :)
Just saw Kane in A.C. over the weekend. Still as dope as ever!
A few great cameos... Great tune. Never gets old.
Smoothest MC ever
80s - regular fit
90s- baggy
00s- very baggy
10s - very skinny
what a change!
90's and 00's is my fit
The Truth True!!
Weren' t the 90s way baggier than the 00s?
DaGibbityGab yeah that's what I thought. I've gone back to baggy just recently
Regular fit allday motherfuckers maybe sometimes baggy jogging pants
1989 ! 80s is the BEST.
ty hip hop evolution
Yes best episode
When hip hop was hip hop!!!!
Run DMC introduced me to rap music, but it was Kane that made me fall in love with it. This is the first rap song that I wrote down all the lyrics to. I just had to know all the words, so I could spit along, whenever it came on. I can still recite most of the song.
kane is the inovator of all this
Damn, now and days it's very rare to get such CLASS paralleled with great hiphop lyrics.
Kane, Rakim, Krs 1 and Kool G rap was the best of the 80’s
My rookie days when this came out. 35 years ago
Still so smooth.
Miss those days
first black rappers to make u wanna be cool .. and smooth
I grew up on Big Daddy Kane. Still listening today 2023!
When our black women were natural and beautiful in every way! And our black men looked and dressed fly!❤
Big daddy Kane is my one of my favorite rappers all time i always like big daddy Kane for sure
GOD FIRST ALWAYS Y'ALL
I remember being 14 years old and I was in love with big daddy Kane😂
Yessss omg Kane and Michael Jordan were my 1st loves, just fine and chocolate 😂😂😂😂
