For me, this song is one of the best in the history of hip hop, it's a shame that it is not as well known as other famous songs, but hey, quality is not even measured by quantity, total wreck is also one of my favorites, impressive, the best always Bahamadia K-Swift & Mecca Starr, really very good, I will continue listening until I die, and premier DJ in this impressive production, like everything he does, real hip hop forever.
Yeah exactly that kind of swift died in 2008 and was a dj this a regular female rapper which we can't even find a bio or anything on her I found a tiny page bio for Mecca star but nothing else
💯 🔥🔥 I remember listening to this for the first time sitting in my truck one morning before going into college and I listened to it several times and made myself late to class!
MC Lyte, Isis/Lin Q, Bahamadia, Jean Grey, Monie Love and Missy Elliot- 100% lyrical talent, none of them used sex or rachet stripper/sexuality to market themselves, and all respected to this day. All of them seemed to disappear when Hip Hop sold out and because a trash commercialized wasteland of garbage. Aside from the Griselda Crew (Roc Marciano, Mach Hommy, Benny the Butcher, etc.) and Mos Def I haven't listen to Hip Hop music since 2005.
Bahamadia is so criminally underrated it sickens me that more people do not know of her or her impact. Her flow, lyricism, and cadence is top tier next level. Mecca Starr's verse was insane!! Lin Que with X-clan was also another crazy underrated female MC. Sadly, the best female MC's were not mainstream so most people don't know of them unless they grew up in the greatest era of Hip Hop 80's/90's.

In my eyes she's equivalent to a guru stylishly monotone hard punchlines and in the pocket timing not to mention high iq social commentary and witty af

God Damn! Bahamadia is the best female hip hop lyricist of all time, by far. This woman can spit better than alot of mainstream male artist too! I want to hear more, her voice and flow have melodic synergy.
Been listening to you since 1993, Brooklyn Myrtle ave. back then I was 15 and your music were always on my mind, heart and soul..... I'm 45 and still loving your music.
BACK IN THE DAY WE GOT TRUE LADIES IN THE RAP INDUSTRY,NO NACKEDNESS,NO JEWELS,NO SENSLESS LYRICS AT ALL.I MISS IT.PEACE TO BAHAMADIA MY ALL TIME BEST FEMALE MC.
Bahamadia is without a shadow of a doubt the most underrated and slept on Female M.Cs EVER!! She bkows Lil Kim, Queen Latifa, Eve, Lady of Rage... ... infact all the Female M.Cs out the water!! Just because she never had the looks but she "Spits the Riddles like Film loose with my lyrics like a double jointed limb twist and a bend!" One ❤ Peace to Bahamadia and R.I.P K-Swift 🕊️🌠😇xx "Mecca Star" kills this Track with her bit 💯💯💯💯 Peace☯️ Love❤ Positivity🕉️
Sad part is in 2024,record companies STILL wouldn’t know how to categorize, market, promote Bahamadia, she doing well without them she still touring from what I hear
This should have way more views. Just goes to show how some of the greatest works of art get completely lost in the blur of garbage were inundated with everyday.
I have been searching for this track for 10 years now !!! Have googled the hell out of it !!!!! Finally found it , I googled lyrics with riddler in the verse thats all I could remember of it and just went through list man I am sooooo happy finally 😀
I thought it was dream the hard way too and thought it was an artist called Voodoo Kim it's all I could remember as I lost the original radio recording I had of it !
Bahamadia's voice and flow is like literal silk to my ears. So smooth it relaxes me! Could listen to her all night long. This 90s vibe is just IT. *SIGH* .. take me back! .. Also gotta mention Mecca's verse is fucking KILLER! 👊
As a hip hop fan of nearly 40 years, embarrassed to say that today, 7 May 2024, is the first time I ever listened to Bahamadia, and this track, this album. She dropped a gem on this, but let's not forget Preemo... This beat is ridiculous too 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
i am from BALTIMORE CITY ...ANY body grew up in Baltimore from the 90's have NOO CHOICE but to KNOW K SWIFT..she was on our Radio Waves for 92Q EVERYDAY @ 1point for YEARSS..LEGENDARY CLUB MIX QUEEN,, this is my FIRST time seeing her in her EARLY MC EASTCOST MODE
The 90's remain hip hops Golden days
They're not talking about money, sex, cars etc . Just straight bars . Damn ! I miss those days in Hip Hop .
The era of the tall ass project buildings, baggy jeans and ill ass graphic shirts. Glad to be born in those times.
Bahamadia is one of the most underrated MCs and Lyricists.
Facts
She‘s the best female mc, no doubt about it.
Yeah she's got skills. So does Mystic and Sa-Roc.
Truth!
Word
These lyrics blew my mind when I first heard this! These sisters can rap. HIP HOP STILL LIVES in songs like these
I miss this style of rap the flow the look the aura was everything.
Old is gold... Niggaz
DJ Premier switched to beast mode when making this beat
He’s always on beast mode
God only knows where he go it from !!!!!
Switched?🤔
@@BoxedNMarley Yes. Preem does not always drop hard tracks like this. This isnt a typical preem beat. Thats a fact
His top 3 beat
When you say hip hop...I picture this. Golden era, trance inducing sampled loops, 2 step hats, grimey basslines , scratches..that 90s feeling
Do worry about skratch culture lol,it's stronger and better than ever,to those always support skratchers and turntablist musicians all day an night 💯

DJ PREMIER >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> BEAT GENIUS .................... : )
Primo's beats are pure timeless masterpieces!
indeed
R.I.P K-Swift, still a legendary track
I don’t think this is the same person. It was DJ K-Swift that passed.
Yeah exactly that kind of swift died in 2008 and was a dj this a regular female rapper which we can't even find a bio or anything on her I found a tiny page bio for Mecca star but nothing else
Still the best female cypher I ever herd. Easy 🔥🔥🔥🔥
PERIOD!!!🔥🔥🔥

Beat, flow, everything is a masterpiece!

Mecca Starr has the perfect tone and flow
Yea
yes! the tone and flow of the whole song is SICKENING. gives you the head bop and stank face the whole time. 💘
My ex keep rocking mec
This is why when people say Nikki Minaj is the greatest female mc, I just shake my head. She would be mid tier in the 90's.
How can anyone dislike this song??!! It's Hip-Hop
That last verse though....
Mecca Star 😍😍😋🥰🤗
Straight up bars! Mecca!
!!!!!!
Still one of the best hip hop tracks ever made!!! 💯👊🏾
There'll never be hip hop like this.Damn the 90's.
3 of the baddest sisters ever
one of the few tracks where all three performers read hip hop on a cosmic level, crazy flow in harmony with an equally cool beat, perfect hip hop
Premo with his dope beats and these amazing MCs with some dope lyrics
Timeless classic, Bahamadia flow and Primo beat: insane connection!!
