Someone tell me how you can dislike pure genius? Man...you can't dislike a masterpiece like this. This is how music needs to be. And that word is bond.
This is what I miss about NY Back in da Days listening to the radio past midnite on a Friday Summer nite for some live off the top of the dome freestyles straight up radio loud in the streets, besides hot 97 also stretch n bobbito and undaground unknown artists playing on NYLIVE yeah feel those smoky nite cyhpers.
The fact that history has these guys as hip hop founders, makes them respectable, but doesn't make them the very best! THOUGHT dusts them all off! Ask Rakim, G Rap and Kane...
On the reel thought is nice,but you know how i see it. Besides no one agrees with thought as being the best. Get off that niggas nuts for reeel you act like dat nigga rode down your hersey highway without the vaso!
you know what else needs to happen? hmmm... let me think....ok...common, del tha funky homosapien and souls of mischief, alkaholiks, large professor and diamond d.
I'm thinking it's from 1996, the year "1nce Again" from Beats, Rhymes, & Life was released as a single; Phife used a line from the song in his first verse and said "I used that line in the single out now." They also keep saying "you on point...once again" throughout the whole thing, as if to promote the track and album.
Rest in peace Phife🙏🏾 This gives me goosebumps everytime I hear it!!🔥🔥Legendery moment in Hip Hop!! All heavyweight MC's showcasing heavyweight rhyming, but truth be told...not many could RAP like Black Thought back in the 90's💯 The man truly masterd the art of rapping! He consistenly stays in the pocket! One of the greatest to ever bless the microphone!💯🙌🏾
4 trolls but that is cool ...This is freestyles real, no retakes ...This is HIP HOP ...YO Bring this back...I miss this... I hate this new self destuction stuff that subliminally pumps negative vibes into my essense
greenishfatbeatz soGreen Beat is by Pete Rock though. His mpc was hooked up on in the Radio Station when they came through....besides you can hear those Pete Rock Drums and the way HE does his basslines in this. Listen to Pete's Jazz similar drums and bass lines
yall can say "dont trip, its just one dislike" but fuck that! I can't understand how you can dislike this mix. Unless it was accidently hit. Whatever, to each his own, i guess.
Dope Post. Most may not have known that this was a reunion of sorts, since PR got his start at 17 spinning for Marley Marl back at WBLS. Gotta love how Black Thought made Phife & Tip up their game after he ripped it.
I looked, but they're only talking about the sample... I'm assuming it's either Pete Rock, Diamond D, or DJ Spinna. I really want drop this instrumental at a party, and watch em flip !
This beat is not a sped up version of 'R U Listening'...geez why do so many people keep saying that. You can literally hear the differences, its just the same sample.
ran this joint 7 times straght! i think i just rock'd my head off my shoulders. this be TRUE Hip-Hop for real heads. new (c)rap luvers/worshipers need not listen to this joint: too much real shit like this at 1 time is liable to make yo head explode. i'm just sayin'.....
yeah, R U Listening might've easily been one of the tracks that Dilla made using the same samples as Pete Rock used. What I'd do for the PR original tho..
Damn... I was hoping Pete dropped this beat on vinyl. But, that's what makes Pete Rock so mysterious... ? Ya'll know what I'm sayin ? With those little 20-second beats in between his songs. I never knew they ran (raw/new) tracks through the SP 1200 on futureflavas. !!!!!!! Pure Hiphop Baby !!!!!!!!!
Yung Thug rappers pressin 'dislike' on this God flow. No Haters shall prosper... #Mr. Trotter if you ability to freestyle was a worrior....u would have been the God King of the Zulu Tribe SHAKA ZULU!!! U ARE JUST TOOOOOO AWESOME
RIP Phife Dawg he killed it here, one of the most underrated MCs 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Word
He was definitely slept on
Phife Diggy was a straight killer with the off the top!!
Res In Peace Phife Dawg. See you in the next life my brother.
"...like Q-tip my partner's name is Malik..." What?! Think about it. Damn.
Black Thought is THE BEST EMCEE EVER.
Whole room full of legends. Hell of a time in hip hop.
🎵💥
This is an original PR beat from his old future flavas radio show in the early 90s....I think its the greatest beat of all time.

David Fuentes - Halftime radio show was the last NYC real hip hop show. Which went off the air just a few years ago. RIP

Illest beat ever by pete. One of the SICKEST freestyle ciphers ever. RIP Phife
The instrumental is "Pete Rock / INI - Rest Easy Phife"
Yo, cheers for this man! I'm big on Pete rock but never knew where to cop this beat. Peace
Black Thought is simply without question, THE GREATEST MC TO HAVE EVER GRACED THE MIC!
Nigga you crazy Rakim is without question along with Nas neck and neck the TWO greatest Mc's period
Dude, I bet even Rakim and Nas would NOT agree with you!
Dhlimi Munza
1. Rakim
2. Kool G Rap
3. Big Daddy Kane
THE TRINITY!!! Study your history homeboy!!!!

Future Flavas with Pete Rock and Marley Marl! Sunday nights in NYC! Great memories!
Q tip is the hardest rapper I ever heard one of the best
Phife killed it!
That beat is SICK!!
Just one of the hundreds of mics Black Thought has set on fire over the years!
Real MC's on a Mic is equal to History
This is how real hip hop should be represented.
Beat sounds like J. Dilla's "R U Listenin'". Might be the same sample.

+Rapper Man i thinkJay used it for the beat Purple also
Yeah, maybe. I can hear it.
No. that beat is ALL Pete Rock bro.
same key of bass...same sample....and pete's drums

DistortedDialect the other way around

yall can say "dont trip, its just one dislike" but fuck that! I can't understand how you can dislike this mix. Unless it was accidently hit. Whatever, to each his own, i guess.
