T La Rock was that dude!! Very underated, but true hip hop heads knew the deal! LL should be paying T La Rock royalties for the whole style and swag! Real talk!!!
This IS!!!!Real hip Hop culture in this music!!!! and its still moving light years ahead of the current non motivating and industry brain wash going on right now.
@tlarock now THAT'S history folks!! I love that you came on here and called it T, when the only source is the records themselves we had to take it as presented but now with youtube there's a real platform where the artists can make the truth heard, thanks for some amazing tracks brother
Never heard LL mention T La Rock, but you can definitely hear the early influence. Look at Lyrical King and B.A.D.'s album covers. They even dress alike!
...dig deeper? Remember, T is Special K's (Treacherous 3) older bro...and of course, Treach 3s' main lyricist was Kool Moe Dee...LL had dethroned KMD for the Lyrical Chip (🏆) just prior!!!
good to know bro, the people in the Old School circuit will be happy to know you are still about and doing well. My son is 8 and I get him into hip hop by playing the old stuff on RUclips. He heard It's yours and his mind was like "Damn!" Bro, you should hit me with your facebook page so the DJs I know can get with you and know you are doing alright.
@thedarkchild86 nuff respect my dude. Just an OG here who was inspired by T La Rock! Most underrated emcee of all time. Listen to dudes flow, wordplay, and voice. Lyrically incredible!!!
@tlarock thats WACK !!! Its a shame you didnt get credit..and for these yearsI was thinking Mantronik did it..LOL. Well... now we know. I got a chance to work produce two cuts on Stezos album... so I had a chance to be down with the Sleeping Bag / Fresh thing for a sec.
T la rock is my dude feel me... LL came out in the same era.. I would not call it biting. they both were ill with the metaphors and delivery. anyway to each his own.. 100s for true hiphop.
@tlarock: greatings T La Rock! Could it be that the original version of this song is of Crush Cold? I've got an old school vynil of the sugarhill records and it contains breaking bells from them. I'm asking because a lot of my fauvorited producers used "the bells" in many great songs and i'm searching the original one! thank you REMEMBER ROOTS

T LA Rock was always very underrated in my opinion .. He was definitely one of the best MC's to hold a mic .. ever!
This IS!!!!Real hip Hop culture in this music!!!! and its still moving light years ahead of the current non motivating and industry brain wash going on right now.
FYI I wasn't into hip hop one bit until I heard your work, early Kid Frost and Afrika Bambaataa
Damn, old school beats were THE SHIT
T La Rock was all that when he was out feel me. Word up doc. August 22_2016.
2 dislikes? I think it was Lil Wayne & Drake.
Man... T La Rock was just a little too early in the game. Skills are unquestionable!
just pure fantastic music. One of my all time faves. Thank you T-LA-Rock
One of the illest opening bars in a hiphop track ever spit! Bar None! T La Rock is that dude ya heard!!!
this is a true emcee who has mastered his craft!!! 100's
One of the most flawless lyricist to ever do it. Although you can hear the Moe Dee influence in my opinion.
@tlarock OMar was a beast on the Edits.. He KILLED it i on this joint. T La Rock... you a Legend !
@tlarock Remembering you doing this song in Sweden back in 1986 at the 2 Def Days Of Hiphop with Mr Wave & Icey Ice!
It's funny..I remember when LL came out, everybody thought he was TLaRock. T La Rock was the originator of this style.
Been a fan of this man for a long time. Great Post.
AA. Arecibo Cinema
Damn, thanks for setting the record straight...peace

REMEMBER ROOTS
@tlarock I love the track you did with QD III, Nitro!
Do you still have contact with Mr Wave?
Thanks bruh , I know whats up
Wow . T La , What equipment was used in this powerful track?
Did Liam Howlett mentioned you on their ''hyperspeed'' track,from Experience album?
Because he took the sample from this track
@thedarkchild86 mc shan's track was called beat biter
Pop it like its Hot ...
how you doing T? last I heard of you they said you were in a nursing home in the Bronx from a head injury you had in a car accident. How are things?
Was this record in response to LL's Rock the Bells?
Who the fuck gave a thumbs down?
@tlarock I have a picture with you and Mr Wave backstage.
@danis1974
I brought that too lol!
@tlarock why didn't you get credit?
its yours
yo thats not the first time LL been accused of biting ... MC SHAN a song about him being a biter ....
@rakimforever1 hmmm...best? maybe at his time
Is this playing at 33 not 45 lol?
the vinyl rotated at 45...Fresh Records and its parent, Sleeping Bag was classic for this...esp. with a lot of Mantronik's prod.!
haha, guess tlarock just needed a better publicist
with all do respect they sound nothing alike... the voices are night and day..
Somebody better take back that fucking dislike...
this was and still is terrible...if this was a response to L Ls rock the bells it failed miserably
Papi Ramone You indeed smoking some of the best crack ever homie.
