You need to listen to the LP version where Flav breaks it down at the end... ""Are you ready for the real revolution, which is the evolution of the mind. If you seek, then you will find, that we all come from the divine."
Yeah the lp version rules because if flav’s break down, but I have to watch this sometimes because that version cuts the third verse off. I wish there was a version with both
This song brings tears to my eyes every time I listen to it. Its a damn shame we as a society would rather hear about money cars and drug dealing than a conscious moral message. Chuck D will go down as one of the GOATs simply because in a time where where they could have easily sold out and bought in to the gangsta rap scene but PE stuck to their guns and Chuck D flat refuses to propagate negativity in his art.
No gang bs, no threats, and no ridiculous uncalled for cussing. It’s just music that is straight to the point with a message. This is a song we could all stand to hear.
They aren’t rapping about getting bitches, doing drugs, shooting people, fucking people over. They are singing about the crisis in the world and how shit is, and they are rapping about God and to not let anyone take your love away. This is where it will always be at.
I saw this movie in the theater with my best friend in High School. We were so into playing basketball, at school, tournaments etc. It was a great time for me. Unfortunately, my friend killed himself in 2007. Anytime I hear this song it makes me think of him and brings back all the great memories I have of him and all the fun we used to have. He was a GREAT basketball player and could have been something! I miss him so much! R.I.P Anthony Giglio!
Yeah, when I first heard this song I was so offended that some kids were ripping one of my favorite artists. When I found out that Stephen Stills not only approved of the use of his song but actually played in the Public Image version, I felt guilty for ever having felt offended.
This was a great song by Buffalo Springfield. Beautifully blended with hip hop by Public Enemy. Great music has no boundaries. Recognize and appreciate art
brother, we are living in crazy times, it's just sad that so much hate exist. We are passengers stranded on this rock we call earth together ; we all were born and found it here, it's here for all of us to enjoy. Humans are the worst thing that ever happened to the universe.
And yet they kicked out Flavor Flav from the group because he was a Trump supporter. You can't have an opinion in modern day society. They decide that for you. If you go against it, you will will be at the mercy of those in charge and it will cost you dearly if you don't agree with the main stream masses.
@@milesparker3263 Opinions are just that, opinions. Just because you disagree with it you shouldn't be silenced, hated on or treated horribly to the point of threatening people. You can and should disagree with it if it's not what you believe in. Problem is in modern day society if your opinion doesn't fit the narrative, you ARE hated, called names, threatened, lose your job ect. "walking the walk" shouldn't be silencing someone because of their opinion being different from yours. That's what fascists do, silence those who don't think like they do. If you want to support that behavior that's fine, that's why our society is becoming the way it is. I do not support it.
" What's love got to do with what you got? Don't let a win get to your head Or a loss to your heart." That might just be one of my favorite lyrics ever. PE, definitely one of the best in the game.
This song should be placed in a time capsule, why ? because it will stand the test of time. Matter of fact, it won't be a test right along with Marvin Gay's "What's going on "..mike drop, walks off, one tear in my eye😢
I believe this song is one of the most respected hip hop songs of all time. I have loved this song since it came out in 1998. It is hard to find new music that is even close to being as good as this. Keep it up P.E. 😊
I agree, this is one of the best rap songs ever. My dad is a harsh rap hater(im 40 hes 64) I played this song for him, and told him to listen to the lyrics. Blew his mind, he asked for a copy of it.
I wanna to point out that Public Enemy were one of posee who had open the golden age Era of hip hop, and By then one the group to close this golden Era with this Hit. the final years
Love Public Enemy! One of their hardest cuts they ever made. With Buffalo Springfield in background, and in one of Spike Lee's best movies. Public Enemy #1!
I'm not usually a fan of one group doing an entire soundtrack for a movie, but public enemy killed this record. Every song is awesome. Highly recommended
Born in 85, and from a boy to a man and finally a father, and this song a representative of several periods in my life. With several different meanings
😂 as a kid i used to HAte This song cuz it stayed on the radio all the time and video countdown lol but now everytime i hear it i damn near get choked up with happiness. That got dam chord lol Now when ill be hooping in my ray allen bucks jersey ill be bumpin this.
Chuck D has never once stopped to take a breath since PE broke out long ago with only real truth, and he’s truly never stopped. Love Chuck D for taking hold of the spirit and heart of what fuels necessary revolution: passionate dedication to justice for every being, never afraid to be angry with his full heart, to tell stories that must never be lost. A powerful revolution is waiting for us to move. To reject hate. Embrace integrity. Refuse division. Refuse the hate. He’s carried the bright torch through it all. Praise&Love
I was just noticing that! It doesn't have Flavor's bit after Stephen's part "I don't think they heard you Stephen, kick it to 'em again one more time.."
Think about it. ALL SPIKE LEE JOINTS gets HATED ON, Because he never will sell out in the industry. All his movies are too real and too blunt for the world. Then he puts public enemy on the he got game soundtrack because they are what was left of hip-hop to him to what was real besides big and pac
Memories 😊 i was in Lincoln High School in coney island doing summer school,when this movie was being filmed. I played for Lincoln myself with Zack Marbury steph little brother😊 Lincoln roll call ya
Boy, PE and Chuck do not get enough credit! These guys took rap to another level!!! Props to Chuck D, Flavor, Professor Griff, Terminator X... Fight the Power
Old School Hip Hop always had amazing samples. This one has “For What it’s worth” by Buffalo Springfield as a sample and even features Stephen Stills, who was a member or Buffalo Springfield in the video singing the song!
I worked at a movie theater in 1998 when this movie was out. I remember cleaning up the theater while this song was playing during the ending credits. I was a senior in high school at that time, so I could relate to some of the things going on in the movie. I can't believe 20 years have gone by.
"We all got game" Me and my homie are both 26 now. I grew up with my homie between the ages of 6 and 17 years old. when we where kids we used to play basket ball a lot, my homie was better of course, many memories. As I'm watching this video now, I seeing the part when Denzel Washington is shooting hoops in prison, got me tearing up. Fuck it, thinking about my homie now in prison doing 80 years for murder because of this gang Banging shit..... He still got game I bet.
These words make perfect sence when you apply them to the last 3 years of tyranny we went are are still experiencing! One of my favourite songs i remember from the past. Good luck and get right with god my friends.

"Don't let a win get to your head, or a loss to your heart". thats a lot of wisdom
It's what parents showed be teaching their children these days instead of handing out participation trophies.

Long live chuck D!
That's how we grew up.

Chuck D is one of hip hop's best storytellers

Why can't society today just listen to what Chuck and Flav are saying.
Well mostly Chuck! lol
Cause Society is just WAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY too ignorant!
He's just complaining
You need to listen to the LP version where Flav breaks it down at the end... ""Are you ready for the real revolution, which is the evolution of the mind. If you seek, then you will find, that we all come from the divine."

Absolutely Flava Flav makes it so much better..... What a guy.... Goat! 💯💪🏾👍🏾❤️
I just downloaded it on my Spotify. The LP version is so good. Wow.
Chuck D is Spittin, and Terminator X is Spinnin.
This joint never gets old.
+Bryan H. Realness. It never dies.
I was just thinking that..1 year after you
Bryan H. still not old haha
this blunt never gets old
I just watched the movie last night
This is what hip-hop should be about. Something with an actual message. This is why I love these guys.
Nowadays its all about asses and butts
&&& don't 4Get about the bling & bullets😔
Still got game 2024
This song brings tears to my eyes every time I listen to it. Its a damn shame we as a society would rather hear about money cars and drug dealing than a conscious moral message. Chuck D will go down as one of the GOATs simply because in a time where where they could have easily sold out and bought in to the gangsta rap scene but PE stuck to their guns and Chuck D flat refuses to propagate negativity in his art.
Now we have DRUG ADDICTS by LIL PUMP ...go ahead and watch the video if you wanna feel sad for the state of music
Hell yea
He used his gangster side to produce ice cube
well said
Nothing in life matters so people just like to have fun
2023 and the lyrics hit even harder now.
This song tells The truth. Chuck D is the GOAT. Much respect.
plus de 25 ans aprés, ça coule tout seul...👍👍👍💪
No gang bs, no threats, and no ridiculous uncalled for cussing. It’s just music that is straight to the point with a message. This is a song we could all stand to hear.
Public enemy number 1
2024 still very relevant, true definition of a classic.
They aren’t rapping about getting bitches, doing drugs, shooting people, fucking people over. They are singing about the crisis in the world and how shit is, and they are rapping about God and to not let anyone take your love away. This is where it will always be at.
Facts !
Still listening in 2024 August! Great story and music about a father and a son!
The father, the son and the holy game. ❤❤❤❤
Chuck D ! A lyrical Genius !! Been down with PE since the 80s
This song will remain a classic until the end. 💯💯💯💯💯💯💯🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Chuck d was a straight poet
he still is
"Don't let a win get to your head or a loss to your heart!" Love that
The successful people act from intelligence. Once you let emotion into your head, it's a recipe for disaster.
I'm a old white lady and this is the best song ever!
Yeah....because it has melody & beat! A rare combo! And emotion, while I'm at it.
55 yrs old, Today was the first time hearing this... Damn!
Amazing! Thanx Pandora...
How prophetic was this song for back then...damn
I was surprised as fuck when Stephen Stills popped up, cuz that's straight up respect.
Happy 25th Anniversary to one of the greatest songs of all-time. (April 28, 1998) 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

Damn bro that’s sad 😥
Blessings my brother
Sorry for your loss bru
In a tragic situation it's still good to have memories like that with a great song and music. Blessings brother...i feel ya
2023 and I’m back here again. Can never get over this tune. The feeling of nostalgia and the consciousness of the song gets me feeling super pumped
Awesome Stephen Stills made a cameo in this video. Great collaboration.
When Stephen stills makes his appearance I get goosebumps
He's not as beautiful but more relevant than ever! Thanks, PE for keeping "For What It's Worth" in the public's eye.
Yeah man, not only to sample an amazing song but to get the original artist on board is something beautiful
Yeah, when I first heard this song I was so offended that some kids were ripping one of my favorite artists. When I found out that Stephen Stills not only approved of the use of his song but actually played in the Public Image version, I felt guilty for ever having felt offended.
Isn't that music "For What It's Worth" by Buffalo Springfield?
+Bruce Wayne yes it is
no
thats Stephen Stills with the guitar in the video
Actually, it is.
Miller you mind adding some content it squares the arena up a bit. No choice in this I'm £) All Day.
What a great song. Still playing it in 2004. It will never get old.
Dayyum you're 20 years behind. We're in 2024 😅
Jamming this on a discman walking to school ,the feeling of that is indescribable
Back when rappers actually had something to say.
Like LIES buried in a LIBRARY! Damn that's deep.LISTEN to the lyrics people.
Chuck D Always Speaks the Truth
If u don't love this song u don't got game
Shout out to Creadence Clearwater Revival
I love this classic hip hop music from public enemy for sure and life
@@abefroman8821 the original is actually Buffalo Springfield. They didn't hit it nearly as big as CCR but For What It's Worth is a classic.
@@UnlessIWin your right and I knew that, why the hell did i write CCR?
Who got game?
This was a great song by Buffalo Springfield. Beautifully blended with hip hop by Public Enemy. Great music has no boundaries. Recognize and appreciate art
Speak the truth, brother. This track transcends time and dimensions, what's genre got on it?
Who do you think Stephen Stills is?
back when rap was the greatest... even Stephen Stills jumped in for this one! ;d
Buffalo Springfield "For what it's Worth" sample - Steven Stills on guitar! #Dope sample , classic track!!
+Kevin Bernstein Preach!
Kevin Bernstein yep
He 7
Not a sample. Stephen Stills actually played guitar and sang on it.
This is the message we need to hear RIGHT NOW.
brother, we are living in crazy times, it's just sad that so much hate exist. We are passengers stranded on this rock we call earth together ; we all were born and found it here, it's here for all of us to enjoy. Humans are the worst thing that ever happened to the universe.

" What's love got to do with what you got?
Don't let a win get to your head

That might just be one of my favorite lyrics ever. PE, definitely one of the best in the game.
This song should be placed in a time capsule, why ? because it will stand the test of time. Matter of fact, it won't be a test right along with Marvin Gay's "What's going on "..mike drop, walks off, one tear in my eye😢

I cannot argue that. I've always
found it to be a thought provoking song that perhaps more people need exposure to

Never gets a Oscar...cause Song offers the Real Truth !
GOLDEN DAYS!❤
Im here from billions season 6 episode 1 and my oh my what a song !
When Chuck D speaks / Rap you can't help but listen to the gospel
Public Enemy and Steven Stills? It doesn't get any better than that!
2022 almost and still rockin this joint. Underrated
Man hip-hop will never be this good
don't let a win go to your head or a lose to your heart that's a tight line
This is my first time hearing this masterpiece! I'm giving it 12 out of 10 stars.
Love Public Enemy! One of their hardest cuts they ever made. With Buffalo Springfield in background, and in one of Spike Lee's best movies. Public Enemy #1!
Agreed
I'm not usually a fan of one group doing an entire soundtrack for a movie, but public enemy killed this record. Every song is awesome. Highly recommended
Spike Lee usually does it like that.
We are the Game
You have no idea how much I love this song.
Today! You have no idea how much I love this song.!

Its what happens when someone wise beyond their years makes an older and wiser track lol
They did a great job covering that classic of Buffalo SpringField
Always listened to this as a kid and the older I get the more the lyrics resonate. They were dropping real fkin knowledge
Yes sir
Born in 85, and from a boy to a man and finally a father, and this song a representative of several periods in my life. With several different meanings
One note and you know it's Stephen Stills and it's THAT song. One note. You want to talk about game?!?

Ice cold lyrics...
Perfect song for the perfect film
Real hip hop my god
PUBLIC ENEMY LEGEND 🏀👍
Simple beats reflect all aspects of life, returning to the most primitive state and original intention
This is why I love hip hop so much
Classic will never get old
More relevant today then ever ...

Still quite affecting after all these years. Even the cameo by Stephen Stills is surprisingly good.
This song, twenty years later, shows me just how good America is at NOT CHANGING.
Times aint changes, just new faces.
There have been a few changes since this song and movie. Minorities have better themselves more since then. Pay attention to positive stuff 2.
Had to sit 25 years to see this again😂
