Loved this era. From 96 to very early 2000s where great. From jays classic "reasonable doubt" in 96' to wu-tang forever double album and obviously nas classic albums to bigs 2 albums at that time to pacs all eyes on me, me against the world....ahhhh man can go on and on its was definitely the golden era just lucky to have grown up during that time. The radios were playin bangers one after another and it was more competitive too these artists were coming at eachothers heads every damn week!
I agree.....i think people was more open minded at da time as far fans of hip hop....i rap an can admit dem niggas was rappin to shit alot of rappers cant rap to so da beat alone was only able to carry da artist but so far....u had to make dem lyrics an dat flow count
Word... this was the golden era so many different styles from tribe, nas, wu, Busta, the list goes on and each of them sounded unique. I’m biased never liked west coast gangster rap.

If that be the case. Why is Dame having so many financial problems and Jay is richer than ever. This doesn’t add up to me. Where did all the drive and business sense go? Dame’s poor business decisions and lack of vision is the reason things fell apart.
@@sirdanieliii9567 naw. Follow Dame on Instagram and see how prosperous he really is. He doesn't kiss ass so he rubs some people the wrong way which makes them scared to work with him so he creates his own platform.
Jaz O, Sauce Money, and Jay-Z were about to form a group. Jay was the only one who wantes to let Dame manage them. Dame managed Jay, and who of those 3 made it far far?
Yo NIGGAS need to stop FRONTIN!!! Jay wouldn't be where he is, today, WITHOUT Dame. This is a FACT. Dame was puttin in work. He was the mouthpiece. Everybody want to state third opinions, when none of that matters. Facts are facts and you can't change history.
Nas, Jay-Z, and Q-Tip are legends in the game and this was a good video. And on a side note I have a you tube channel type in Russell Mills May 22, 2017
The culmination of the art form of hip-hop led to the point in time beautifully documented here. Since then the medium keeps reinventing itself, but has yet to surpass late 90's hip hop.
Yo, I just realized this is 2 years after Biggie's death, 3 years after Pac and 4 years before the infamous Nas vs Jay-Z beef. Damn what a time those collective years was. EDIT: The fact the kids in this video are the same age right now is mind blowing. lol
The Real Hiphop archives . My eyes get teary when I see this shit man ! Absolutely legendary! We must preserve our culture like ancient artefacts stolen from Africa locked up at the Louvre in France . Preserve our culture deep in our mind body and souls !
Thanks for sharing this, the world definately needs to see shit like this. This is beautiful and strong as fuck. This is the bond between real dudes and hiphop, and where they were taking it. Such strength and unity, this is pure. So much toxic trash in this generation X, most kiddos don't even get the fucking vision, and dare to disrespect their pioneers without knowing any intel on these godlike humans
I really doubt that BIG handed his rhyme book to Jay Z. Jay Z has been rapping since the Kane days im talking about the 80s. He was not some new unexperienced rapper who might accept such a thing.
38:05. I've lost a few great dudes I still call family in these streets, and still, I keep a small circle of friends I call family. Because, a handful of bad apples don't want someone who creates, achieves, and become a success beside them - watch those foes!
Im from Brooklyn born an raise so I have a lil connection with j however he didn’t present himself like naz did n this documentary I really felt where naz was coming from qtip as well
You here Jays answer when he was asked what was he doing before rap ✊🏾✊🏾 These rappers now will snitch on themselves by shoot ing ppl and even themselves (its video of it) on social media just to feel “gangsta”
Andre Goings can u expound? What are u observing as a distinction between nas and Jay's behavior?.. ( Im asking out of curiosity, not sarcasm or disrespect)
Fasho! Just that Nas is in his old hood sitting in the hallways he grew up in willing to discuss hiphop. To where on the flipside Jay Z is withdrawn and looks like he too busy and has other things to do. I felt Nas is treating it more like an art as opposed to Jay whom is treating it like a business.
MUTETELA CONGOLAIS His dad wasn’t around during his upbringing. Him and his mom lived in a poor area of Stockholm, and QD3 wasn’t treated well by his peers.
He also lived in the "Jungles" in Los Angeles with Actor/ Rapper Avery that was blood character shot gun in boys in the hood that dude was unstable he died in jail was killed by a Satanist. Im glad he gave his life to the lord.
nas had the best deal for an artist he own 23% percent of his album .. even tho low sales illmatic he still recouped he took $50,000 advance and zomba publishing now universal gave him 250,000 for 25% percent of his publishing

Bring a rapper can be really beneficial for dudes that come out the projects, but again it’s so deadly, it’s sad but brothers get killed when they on the rise. I don’t really know the reason dudes be killing each other.
Those same masters tht jay & dame said they owned are the same masters tht was the final straw for jay whn they sold The Roc & jay wanted his masters but dame felt like tht was their album not just his...it makes sense to a certain degree why dame wanted to own tht part of history..however i feel jay as well ..Dame said Reasonable Doubt was Him,Biggs & Jay baby not just jay alone
This video brought back alot of memories. From Perry Ellis jackets, to Tommy Hilfiger, buying CD's, etc. The good ol' days

@@lilrylotv3684 Dope! Those artists back then did it for the love of hip hop and not like today's artists who use hip hop as a get rich quick scheme.

I really doubt that BIG handed his rhyme book to Jay Z. Jay Z has been rapping since the Kane days im talking about the 80s. He was not some new unexperienced rapper who might accept such a thing.
Yeah that nigga Jay wasnt writing his lyrics ever since back then, everything is off the top.
Guy Simmons yeah but his flow was average back then he took big slow flow
Guy Simmons : Diddy handed Jay Z, BIG rhyme book and stash of beats.
@@adamgordon2572 Jay-z rapped about his life through his career didn't even talk guns or on some brooklyn gangsta shit like Biggie
