I didn't know that I've waited 25+ years to hear a British black guy react to 90's American hip-hop from a white Irish rap group from Boston, till today. However, I am glad that I did.
I had a customer who's ring tone was this song. He was a huge tatted biker type, I'm 5'2, blond and southern. After his ringtone played the intro I busted out the lyrics, in a small southern town known for folk music. It was a good day
@@Soulbreeze good stuff. I've been out the loop for a while, but the last time I heard him was, I think, Warporn Industries with Sick Jacken and others.
6-7th grade, Romania, when this came out! Smash hit, still plays sometimes in clubs, when we had our 20 year highschool reunion, at a local club, this was one of the classics of the 90's played.
This was in the movie "Mrs. Doubtfire" when Sally Field came home to find her kids grooving to this jam during a crazy party that Robin Williams arranged. Lolz!
Millions of reaction vids out there, but there’s an innocence, an appreciation, and an eyes-wide-open enthusiasm that is unique to your channel. Great work, my man.
You thought it was a black group...I get it, history tells us that the Irish got the funk on about 600 years ago, I hate to admit this because I was born in England (now an American)...but I'll give respect where it's due. ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Everybody did jump around 😀 Major Hip Hop classic 🥇 Imagine a packed club and all jumping to this tune happily, it was a wonderful time to be around and be part of the 90s hip hop.
The lead singer later suffered a massive heart attack & after he recovered went solo with the blues. He released “ What it’s like “ under the name Whitey Ford. Pretty good song ✌🏻just to clear it up, I know he was known as Everlast but later referred to him self as Whitey Ford. Everlast was a stage name & his real name was Erik Francis Schrody. Sorry for any confusion guys 💯
@@cmoney1629 Hi, actually we are both kinda right Lol! I remember he was always known as Everlast but then when he did go solo & did Whitey sings the blues he started referring to his self as that. To be precise, Everlast was just a stage name. His real name is Erik Francis Schrody. That’s why I’m not famous, it’s too complicated Lol! ✌🏻
This was massive!!! Still gets everyone jumping… love it when us 90’s teens get all nostalgic and still jump as high as we can , even though we are all now in our 40’s/50’s and our knees hurt!!!😮😮😮😮😂❤
I went to a radio station festival Everlast performed at during the “Whitey Ford” days. The whole crowd was screaming for him to play Jump Around & he refused to do it. Smash Mouth was up next & said, “F-- it! If he won’t play it, we will.” The crowd went nuts!
@@theoneandonlybubblebass817 Rap and Hip Hop was diverse in terms of style and tone in the 80s and 90s. Grandmaster Flash and Fatback did political stuff around 82 and 83. By contrast Doug E Fresh was more light hearted and Kurtis Blow sat somewhere between Flash and Fresh. LL Cool J did the same Then there was the whimsical style of De La Soul NWA and Public Enemy updated the political landscape story telling of Flash etc. The music industry is now a homogenized mess.
@Mike Caetano now i can hear it when you mention it ! I also always thought that high ''twaaa!!'' trill sound was sampled from a set of Bagpipes ! can you hear it ? this lively jam is just what i need tonight .. be safe over there CHEERS mate!!
This song was in my head a few days ago lol I haven't heard it for a good 20 years. House of Pain were pretty big in the 90s during my high school days.
He is... do you know the TripHop stuff he produced for Ingrid Schroeder in the 90s? You can tell it was him :-) ruclips.net/video/XpP6DhpjdOo/видео.html
Yeah, B-Real wasn't into doing the song at that time. The samples are from the Harlem Shuffle by Bob & Earl and Popeye The Hitchhiker by Chubby Checker.
It was definitely a club banger. Huge song for a minute and everyone went absolutely crazy for it no matter the color of skin. I saw them live too with Cypress Hill and Naughty By Nature on the same concert.
This song was played at my wedding reception and my friends and i, all of Irish descent, none of us can dance either, were on the dance floor "Jumping Around" lol, great time
@@turdferguson400 girl, I been missing you! I messaged you earlier on your post. I asked Dale about you several hours ago. I hope everything is good your way, I been doing okay. ✌🏻♥️
Back in the day (talking like '93, '94), when things started dragging at the bar me and my friends used to hang out in, whoever was running the music would put this on, and the whole place would go nuts. Drinks would go flying, and there would in fact be much jumping around. Good times, great memories.
Fun fact: most people probably know that the lead vocalist Erik Schrody is Everlast, but less known is that the DJ from House of Pain is DJ Lethal who went on to be in Limp Bizkit.
I remember in high school there was an epic party that made the news. The cops estimated there was between 300-500 people in and around the house. I remember at one point this song was blaring and everyone in the house was jumping...I thought for sure the house was coming down! It was fucking nuts!!!!
One of the most sampled and imitated backgrounds in all of hip-hop!! And the lead singer made a song in the late 90's called "What It's Like", which is amazing.
this is a firm favourite in our house from me....the gran to my 3yr old grandson!! you should watch the crowds at american college games going mad to this. amazing
Video set to the backdrop of St Patrick’s Day pubs and parade. They’re American Irish, but this song was huge globally, especially here in Ireland! Jumped around many’s a time to this! Lol ☘️
I just tried. It's genuinely uncomfortable repressing that urge! Very weird feeling. And when I couldn't stand it anymore after about a minute, moving again felt like such a release! xD
Old School Rap was all about fun or preachin' 2 things that attracted me to it ...... man those were the days. You had great beats with heavy sampling & lyrical poets like KRS-One, BDK & Rakim. Fun stuff like Digital Underground, Biz Markie & De La Soul.
This was before Eminem. They kind of paved the way in a way for Eminem to be accepted because House of Pain got a lot of heat as a white rap group as they came not long after the huge backlash Vanilla Ice got for being a phony. That's why they leaned in to the Boston tough guy/Irish punk/gangster vibe. It really helped lend an air of authenticity to their music. Plus that song just slaps.
I knew you'd like that one Jay. Another one that got everyone on the dance floor. Imagine everyone on a crowded dance floor just jumping... It was a blast.
This is the thunder you hear before getting a visit from "your cousin from Boston!" "See this tattoo on my bicep? It says "Jump Around" in Gaelic...I think..." Time for another Sam Adams!!
Javyee says, "I think Hip-hop started off as a thing to bring people together..." It did. The pioneers of hip-hop, such as The Sugar Hill Gang, Run DMC, Fat Boys and others used comedy, good beats and a lot of positive messages. The "threats" were usually directed at other rappers, but were more of a "dozens" kind of insult or challenge. Hardcore gangster rap came later, and focused on more brutal topics.
This was really big in the clubs back in the day - it was the Grunge era and I wasn't really into Hip Hop, but even I had to dance when this song played!
Please react to Everlast “What it’s like” same guy who’s rapping here.Amazing song with deep meaning.The video is a must as well. A hard truth for some...just life for others😶
Love this song ! .. was living in Windsor across from Detroit in 1989 when hip hop exploded then this song came out a couple of years later .. have it on vinyl and play it loud ! it will wake up any dead party !
This song was HUGE back in the day... And most famously known for being in the movie "Mrs Doubtfire", with Robin Williams.. the first scene with his sons birthday party, this is playing! ❤❤❤🎵🎶👊🥰 Watch it, if you've never seen that movie. This song always gives me goosebumps, even after all these years! 👍❤️ Great reaction sir 😍
I always loved this song, I had the same Celtics jersey cause I was a huge Larry Bird fan, besides having a little Irish roots. My late grandfather had actually left me his old post office uniform part of his Will. However my oldest son father was part of the music bizz for a minute before he died he had actually knew them and introduce me to them and they had signed my post office jacket in which I have still to this day in safe keeping. However if u didn't know the lead singer had a heart he is still alive but he had went solo and is a blues singer if I'm not mistaken under the name Whitey can't remember the last name though. It's awesome that u did this as I still jam to this song Alot on the weekends and it's in my middle SON'S workout playlist as well....

Wikipedia says that the video was dedication to the band's friend Matt Champy, who passed away in 1992. It looks like all the members of the band are alive. There was a reunion tour a few yrs ago.
I was in high school when this song came out, and I still remember how it was impossible to play it at a school dance all the way through because the kids would go too crazy when the chorus dropped.
Dangerous song this!!!!!! Once, after work, I popped into a mate's bar where I was meeting more mates. As I walked into the bar, this came on the speakers! Within two minutes all the tables had been overturned and all the glasses on the floor, with lots of broken glass gettin' trampled by a group of crusty old construction workers! Thanks for your memory provoking reactions; Shine on Mate!
Sheeit.. 51 now and this song warp speed me into my young days in the club when this track on spin, everyone jumped on the dance floor lmao.. Exactly when the lyrics jump jump jump jump around!! Almost everybody jumps... Wow that's how big this song was in Singapore night life.
You have to watch a video of this song being played at a University of Wisconsin football game!! The entire crowd goes insane when they hear this song come on at the end of the 3rd quarter and about half of the stadium of 70,000+ fans all start jumping. It gets so insane, that if you're not one of the people jumping, you will feel the entire stadium start to move. It is one of the weirdest and craziest experiences you will ever see.
@@daveyboy_ he was originally from Long Island but moved to southern California with his family when he was about ten - he went to high school in Los Angeles
This was out when I was 16 and every time I hear it I still feel the need to jump around but realise quite quickly I’m to old for that shit !! 😂😂 great reaction !!
“I’d be careful. That pony had a lot of water.” An absolute classic song, and if you’ve never heard it, you’ve never watched Mrs Doubtfire. Go watch it right now, and look out for that line.
Hahahaha I didn't even know he did a reaction to this song until a few minutes ago and I actually fell asleep watching Mrs Doubtfire Because my son had it on repeat and I woke up to that part. I actually woke up saying Miranda wassup girlfriend ur home a little early 😂
I was at a Grandmaster Flash Gig in a small hip hop club n the late 90's and he spun this track -- best reaction I have ever seen to any song in any club, concert or festival -- thought the floor was going to collapse!! Amazing tune.

It's been nearly 30 years of me trying to not jump around when this song comes on. 3 decades of fail. 🙌
YES! Thank you for saying what MANY of us have experienced! :-D
My favorite part: "I'm the cream of the crop, I rise to the top"!
🤭😉🤣
If you didn’t jump or bounce you were in a wheelchair
TBH , its not THAT hard ? Just get out of that damn chair and JUMP AROUND !!! Its not rocket science realy.......😁
Same, cept now things hurt when I jump around
I didn't know that I've waited 25+ years to hear a British black guy react to 90's American hip-hop from a white Irish rap group from Boston, till today. However, I am glad that I did.
( in the 90s , if no one was dancing in a club...every DJ would pull this bad boy out
This was the ultimate warmer, as soon as you heard it you would get on the dance floor and jump around 😂
Heck yeah!
YEP!! Truth!
True statement.
👍👍👍
The clear follow up to react to is “Insane In The Brain “ by Cypress Hill..
Spot-on!
Yes!
Yes, please!
I like “Wanna be a rock star”
@@rileyandmike yes 👏 , but totally different feel..
The dance floor was never empty in any club, bar, funeral, christening, prison sentencing, Bar Mitzvah, or WHATEVER when this came on.
I had a customer who's ring tone was this song. He was a huge tatted biker type, I'm 5'2, blond and southern. After his ringtone played the intro I busted out the lyrics, in a small southern town known for folk music. It was a good day
Love this.
🤔😆👍🏼
But did you jump up, jump up, and get down?
Good times!🍀🎶👊
I can't even begin to express how popular this song was in the clubs and parties. Everyone got so hyped up when this came on, it was insanely fun!!!
It's hard to believe someone your age still hasn't heard this till now
I also find it hard to believe to be honest
I like him, but i do think that most of his reactions are lies..., maybe to get some views...
Because he's full of shit. 🤷♂️
Like most of these 'reaction' videos they're doing it for views and likes. 🙄
MRS.Doubtfire !!
He's heard 90% of this stuff before c'mon. Like he hasn't heard this or bohemian rhapsody or straight outta compton etc until he did the videos lol
This song was HUGE! I remember being a young gal in the 90s, at the club everyone was on the floor getting down!
Right!? The good old days!
I remember seeing them open for The Ramones in Hollywood!!
@@Tomes23 that sounds amazing!!!
@@jennifera7651 it WAS! I can still smell the smoke and cheap beer. It is a fun memory.
You mean jumping around????
This was an absolutely massive hit back then. Still rocking even now.
Irish American, Everlast started out with Ice T’s Rhyme Syndicate.
yA, East LA., but some hats.pins , t's and clovers, while bagpipe does appear irish lol
Everlast is still kicking it.
"I Got the Knack" was the first time I heard MC Everlast (before House of Pain)
@@Soulbreeze good stuff. I've been out the loop for a while, but the last time I heard him was, I think, Warporn Industries with Sick Jacken and others.
Out of LA
6-7th grade, Romania, when this came out! Smash hit, still plays sometimes in clubs, when we had our 20 year highschool reunion, at a local club, this was one of the classics of the 90's played.
Remember when this song was blasting out of everyone's car.
yep lol!
It’s still blasted out of mine from time to time.
Was?
Check out this video to brighten the Holidays!!

Ummmm...... NO
I'm a 46 white southern lady we still play this song in the small bar.
God bless the Confederacy.
This was around the same time that Cypress Hill were big in the early to mid-nineties.
Saw them live in early 94. Indoor venue. The air was green ;)
@@BardOfAndromeda 😂😂😂 I can imagine.
The music was made by the cypress Hill DJ
1:09 L0L no, it's not!!
LOL! Cypress Hill, Funkdoobiest and House of Pain were collectively known as the Soul Assassins
The lead singer is Everlast, who I'm pretty sure you've reacted to. This song came out in 1992, and Everlast's hay day was in 1999/2000.
Omg, I was never into hip hop but when THIS song played at college parties EVERYONE hit the dance floor, even me. Good times...
This was in the movie "Mrs. Doubtfire" when Sally Field came home to find her kids grooving to this jam during a crazy party that Robin Williams arranged. Lolz!
Also Happy Gilmore.
Also in bridget Jones diary
Thx for making me feel so old
@wharsmetoothpicson What! U sheltered!

I blast it now.😉😎
I'll blast it at my funeral when I go out!
Still blasting bro🇨🇮

Still do till infinity boyyy

This track stands on his own
I've been to one of B-Real's dispensary's in L.A. County. It was great.
I thought it was them until I saw the video .
You: It's a slow jam...
Me: Just wait....JUMP AROUND!!!!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥

Eat a table spoon of olive oil every day for your joint pain. I cook my eggs in it almost every day.
You should check out What It’s Like by Everlast he flipped his style up
No his stage name is Everlast
Definitely. What It's Like is a truly awesome song.
The Ends is also a good Everlast track.
Whitey Ford Sings the Blues is good period.
I went to a radio station festival Everlast performed at during the “Whitey Ford” days. The whole crowd was screaming for him to play Jump Around & he refused to do it. Smash Mouth was up next & said, “F-- it! If he won’t play it, we will.” The crowd went nuts!
Back in the day, everytime this song came on I would nearly destroy my knees jumping up and down. Thanks for your reaction.
If you haven't already, check out Paul Revere by the Beastie Boys, Pop Goes the Weasel by 3rd Bass, and Ugly by Bubba Sparxxx.
3rd Bass "Pop goes the Weasel " is a Vanilla Ice diss track
Check it out
Ugly that's a great shout out, gotta love Bubba Sparxxx
He definitely needs to check out the Beastie boys for sure, so many memories of high school with them 😁🤔
Also check out The Gas Face by 3rd Bass.
Bubba Sparxxx "Deliverance" is another great one.
House of pain killed it with jump! If your feet do not move, you are dead!
Everytime I hear this song it reminds me of the beginning of Mrs Doubtfire lol
I miss Robin Williams.

Yes you are correct.
Early? This is 90s Rap, rap dates back to the 70's and before...
I still love this song. Even my 10 yr old knows what's in store when he hears the intro and I get "mum you're so annoying" 🤣
My girls said the same when I’d play « Square Biz » by Teena Marie
The horn flourishes that start off after the House of Pain introduction are sampled from the Bob & Earl recording of "Harlem Shuffle" from 1963.

Fun fact: most people probably know that the lead vocalist Erik Schrody is Everlast, but less known is that the DJ from House of Pain is DJ Lethal who went on to be in Limp Bizkit.
"Put your lights on" Santana and Everlast
In addition to what it's like, as suggested already.

And you still do. It can't be helped. It's wired into the human soul.
One of the most sampled and imitated backgrounds in all of hip-hop!! And the lead singer made a song in the late 90's called "What It's Like", which is amazing.
You have to do Cypress Hill "insane in the brain" now. Same sort of feel.
Same producer - DJ Muggs made both songs.

🤘🏼✌🏽
Is this hip hop?
@@raymondweaver8526questionable? It's certainly rap and has ltricality, so?
Dealers choice?
Depending on the metric yes and no?
This song was HUGE back in the day... And most famously known for being in the movie "Mrs Doubtfire", with Robin Williams.. the first scene with his sons birthday party, this is playing! ❤❤❤🎵🎶👊🥰 Watch it, if you've never seen that movie. This song always gives me goosebumps, even after all these years! 👍❤️ Great reaction sir 😍
I always loved this song, I had the same Celtics jersey cause I was a huge Larry Bird fan, besides having a little Irish roots. My late grandfather had actually left me his old post office uniform part of his Will. However my oldest son father was part of the music bizz for a minute before he died he had actually knew them and introduce me to them and they had signed my post office jacket in which I have still to this day in safe keeping. However if u didn't know the lead singer had a heart he is still alive but he had went solo and is a blues singer if I'm not mistaken under the name Whitey can't remember the last name though. It's awesome that u did this as I still jam to this song Alot on the weekends and it's in my middle SON'S workout playlist as well....

Wikipedia says that the video was dedication to the band's friend Matt Champy, who passed away in 1992. It looks like all the members of the band are alive. There was a reunion tour a few yrs ago.
I was in high school when this song came out, and I still remember how it was impossible to play it at a school dance all the way through because the kids would go too crazy when the chorus dropped.
Dangerous song this!!!!!! Once, after work, I popped into a mate's bar where I was meeting more mates. As I walked into the bar, this came on the speakers! Within two minutes all the tables had been overturned and all the glasses on the floor, with lots of broken glass gettin' trampled by a group of crusty old construction workers! Thanks for your memory provoking reactions; Shine on Mate!
The guy rapping is the same one that sings
“What it’s like”
You did a video on it not long ago
Sheeit.. 51 now and this song warp speed me into my young days in the club when this track on spin, everyone jumped on the dance floor lmao.. Exactly when the lyrics jump jump jump jump around!! Almost everybody jumps... Wow that's how big this song was in Singapore night life.

You have to watch a video of this song being played at a University of Wisconsin football game!! The entire crowd goes insane when they hear this song come on at the end of the 3rd quarter and about half of the stadium of 70,000+ fans all start jumping. It gets so insane, that if you're not one of the people jumping, you will feel the entire stadium start to move. It is one of the weirdest and craziest experiences you will ever see.
They play this at every Wisconsin Badger football game.
Yeah they do
Damnnn right
Mostly the home games.
Best college football tradition there is...
Yep and almost everyone in the stadium is jumping.
I love it when they play this at Wisconsin Badger home games. The crowd goes nuts.
It's actually Boston Irish, a hint is the Celtics jersey.
Larry Legend.
He aint from Boston
they're actually from Los Angeles
@@marian.jablonski54 H.O.P is out of LA but Everlast is from NY State
@@daveyboy_ he was originally from Long Island but moved to southern California with his family when he was about ten - he went to high school in Los Angeles
This was out when I was 16 and every time I hear it I still feel the need to jump around but realise quite quickly I’m to old for that shit !! 😂😂 great reaction !!
You should check out What it's Like by Everlast... He's the lead rapper here💜
Thanks for the recog!
I posted that he should listen to Everlast “Black Jesus” from the same album.
@@Skootsem Definitely👍
He does not rap in everlast and for some reason that song makes me want to puke when i hear it idk why
@@almubarak89458 😂...ok
If you like his rapping, you should check out War Porn Industries.
I'm 60 years old and dancing on the couch, ha, ha! Awesome song! Awesome group!
It’s about to get hype up in here!
“I’d be careful. That pony had a lot of water.”
An absolute classic song, and if you’ve never heard it, you’ve never watched Mrs Doubtfire. Go watch it right now, and look out for that line.
Hahahaha I didn't even know he did a reaction to this song until a few minutes ago and I actually fell asleep watching Mrs Doubtfire Because my son had it on repeat and I woke up to that part. I actually woke up saying Miranda wassup girlfriend ur home a little early 😂
This was THE song to dance to at the club back in the day:)
You made me smile for the 1st time today! Thanks bro 🙏🏼
One of my top 10 rap groups ever. They had so many bangers!!!
I was at a Grandmaster Flash Gig in a small hip hop club n the late 90's and he spun this track -- best reaction I have ever seen to any song in any club, concert or festival -- thought the floor was going to collapse!! Amazing tune.
