@dougEfresh Funky Headhunter was good but was harder than his previous albums so people thought he was turning "gangsta", his follow up album Inside Out has the same sound but less hard edge lyrics, I liked both albums to be quite honest. That sultry funk, that's the type of funk we want.
Not since Michael did the moonwalk, did everybody try so hard to do the Hammer move. EVERYONE loved this song or at least knew it and his moves. Hammer was high energy, a lot of fun, uplifting and by all accounts a really nice guy!
I don’t like this song as he sampled it from Rick James super freak which is my favourite song and it pisses me of as whenever I play it everyone says can’t touch This
Many moons ago. I set out to do many of MC Hammer moves. I actually enrolled in a dance school and the instructor there actually help move me along in a lot of what he does. One thing I learn through it all is you have to be in superlative shape to make it all come together and at the speed he does it. One glaring fact I came to realize when doing all of this was what MC Hammer was doing was unsustainable in the long run.
DAMN lol! Involuntarily leapt up and making moves around my hotel room as soon as this started playing... 60 years old white girl just could NOT sit still at ALL 👠⭐💁... ...winded, sweaty, and grining like mad now.
Turn this Mother Out and Let's Get is Started were his first hits. Then was Here Comes the Hammer, Pray, and his biggest hit U Can't Touch This. His next biggest hit was Too Legit to Quit. And an Adams Family song was a minor hit then too.
First moment in this white girl's life I realized my natural shape was considered bangin to many men... .. You have no idea the boost to my self confidence it gave a wife and mom that never saw herself as sexy. 💯💛
I’m glad you got to this one! I was around 18 when this came out. It was so catching! A really fun song! Now I’m an old lady sitting here jamming and vibrating lol. Had to watch twice!
This song was required playlist at every party, every dance, every backyard BBQ, blockparty, street party, etc. His message was positive with a "Can Do!" attitude. Fantastic talent indeed. Glad you found this track.
Thanks for this! 😂 Ah, a trip down memory lane lol It was fun watching someone hear this song for the first time!! This song was EVERYWHERE back in the day and everyone was wearing “hammer pants” lmfao 🤣
The days where everybody was in parachute pants that's move was the hammer shuffle. Ok more groups like this Run Dmc Fat boys DJ Jazzy Jeff and the Fresh Prince Young MC Naughty by Nature that all I can remember right now. I love when when your jaw drops it's great thx for keeping good music alive. Rock on brother
@@thedominator87 the running man was when he was sideways like he was running but not the hammer shuffle was when he was on his tippy toes going back and forth
I met him once in an elevator in Champaign, IL at the hotel where I worked and he was staying. Genuinely nice, chill dude. Looked me in the eye as we talked, shook my hand and wished me well with my college studies. Only like 5 minutes of my life, but 5 minutes I'll never forget. Cool dude.
MC sampled Rick James’ “ Super Freak”. The original video had his band and dancers - guys- I found it more entertaining- the hair and outfits were off the charts!
@@donaldjz sampled not stole, but they did without permission because at that time there was no real use of sampling in mainstream before the extensive use in hip hop, so no one really knew about the legal repercussions which is why after 91-92 people were getting permission before sampling.
For old school hip-hop: Eric B and Rakim, especially "Paid in Full" Rock/ Rap crossover: Anthrax/Public Enemy "Bring the Noise" For something more straight rock: Bad Brains "I Against I"
We were all just waiting here for that second when he hit THAT STEP in his dance he called the Chinese typewriter routine to see your jaw drop! We just knew your good time over there was REALLY gonna jump right through the roof! 😉😁❤😎🤘
Back in the day the Music was so good, we danced all night! We danced so much not being mean, it was rare you saw any young person that was out of shape. We danced everywhere!
Oh I love your reaction to this very popular Hammer song!! You have to get some parachute pants (also known as Hammer pants ) I hope you show us your moves once you get them down 💓☮️🇨🇦
Another vote for "Pray" by M C Hammer This song, "Pray" was the one song that made me interested in hip hop and rap music. I thought I would never, never like any song in that category.
The phrase, the moves and the pants...became famous. And all these years later, if you say the name MC Hammer to people of a certain age, they'll come back with "Can't touch this!"
OMGS I forgot how much I LOVED this growing up - one of those songs you can't help moving to even if you feel stupid or you're sick or whatever the f*ck - even if I try to keep still, I can't
You've opened a can of worms: 90s funk. Soul to Soul, Back to Life. Boyz to Men, Motown Philly. Lauryn Hill, Do Wop. Dee Light, Groove is in the Heart. Will Smith, Men in Black
You mentioned Will Smith. I would include his Wild Wild West. The live onstage version for the MTV music awards he did that featured Dru Hill, Kool Mo De and Stevie Wonder was crazy!
Thank you for the positive message!! Love that you're watching this! Talk about a dance contest....my favorite version is the one at the awards show when he collaborated with PSY....even if you don't review it...go watch....the audience loved it! [correction: the MCHammer song was Too Legit to Quit w/ PSY] We did the 'bump' in clubs when I was much younger....but I'm 63 and dancing too! Loved MCHammer and Run DMC.
Man, just looked it up....MC Hammer is 15 years older than PSY and was 50 at this awards show. PSY, though a 'one hit wonder' in the States, is legenary in S.K. and probably learned many of his moves from MC.
Need to do his "pray". Another one is "2 legit 2 quit". Both are awesome. The move you want to steal..... We called it the aspirin in my school. It's the dance you do in walmart looking for your brand of aspirin....lol😂
yo if you wanna do more hammer go back one and start over with "Turn this mutha out" his hit before this one. I actually knew one of Hammers back up dancers back in the day our moms worked together....home girl was fine as hell.
😂 Man did this take me back! You can NOT sit still when an MC Hammer song comes on!!!🎶😉🎶 And, I still have my outfit, with the haram pants and matching top, from the early ‘90s! We’d peg the bottoms of the pant legs so they’d balloon out!!! 😂🥰😉👍
I remember everyone doing that move in the clubs back in th day. Another one was Kool Moe Dee . WILD WILD WEST . If you wanna see another old school dance move watch the video
Oh lawdy .. u crack me up ..lv how excited u get .. I grew up to this !!Emmitt Smith did this as his free style dance on dancing with the stars. ! I think it won him the show !! You should watch it !! Even if it’s on your own time .. Emmitt is my hero ..
You CANNOT keep from dancing your ass off to this song. Hammer is such a great entertainer , and brilliant ❤️ artist. Glad to see you enjoying THIS 😊❤️.
An obscure Hammer hit that I like is called "Crime Stories" If you want to listen to a silly, flirtatious song by M C Hammer go for "YO Sweetness!! Your'e My Weakness!!"
The 80’s!!! We danced and danced...life was great....hammer, run DMC, Morris day and the time.....everyone was looking like hammer in those Jeanie pants💜
This title says it ALL, when it comes to MC Hammer; you can't touch this! LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this one! I'm so NOT a hip-hop person, or rapper, but I LOVE this song! Was in my mid 30's when this came out, and thought it was so cool, then. It's STILL fire! GREAT reaction!
Man .. this brings back good memories. First concert I went to.. I was 14 😂 Me and my friends would spend hours trying to master that dance. I still have my parachute pants if ya want em! 😂😂
Loved your reaction to MC it was fantastic, I could see your energy wanting to burst out but you held it together really well. Just let yourself go it was great to see. Keep up the good work.
MC Hammer doesn’t get enough credit for bring hip hop to the main stream.
Also Harem Pants.
@dougEfresh Funky Headhunter was good but was harder than his previous albums so people thought he was turning "gangsta", his follow up album Inside Out has the same sound but less hard edge lyrics, I liked both albums to be quite honest. That sultry funk, that's the type of funk we want.
@dougEfresh exactly
For real bro
@dougEfresh people always think they own a genre or art form and if someone paint on the edges or out of the circle they try to ostracize them.
NOT DOUBTING YOUR MAD SKILLS, BROTHER, but If you challenge Hammer, pack a lunch and a lantern...it's going to be a long night. 🤣🤣🤣
Good reply
Best comment on this thread.
Brilliant Reply 👏 👏
Facts!! That boi Hammer can gig!!
THESE DAYS??? LOL!!!
Not since Michael did the moonwalk, did everybody try so hard to do the Hammer move. EVERYONE loved this song or at least knew it and his moves.
Hammer was high energy, a lot of fun, uplifting and by all accounts a really nice guy!
I still have MC hammer on cassette tape
Frfr!!!

Not a bottom left on any chair when this came on. Everyone got up dancing. BTW: If you haven't already heard them try Cameo "Word Up".
Love that song
Cameo is fantastic. I haven’t seen a reaction for them. I think this reactor would love them
Love CAMEO. CANDY was my jam!😁
Yassss!
DAMN lol!
Involuntarily leapt up and making moves around my hotel room as soon as this started playing...
60 years old white girl just could NOT sit still at ALL 👠⭐💁...
...winded, sweaty, and grining like mad now.
You'd probably enjoy Morris Day & the Time's "Jungle Love." This one packed dance floors too.
First song i ever hear by Morris n his crew was 'the walk' n i was hooked
We used to square dance to Jungle Love in middle school. We hated square dancing but Ms Williams would play jams like that😂
Yessssss!
OAOAOOO😎
@@auntyKce you sure it's not Oreo reo lol 😂
It's the typewriter move...with parachute pants. His second hit was Too Legit to Quit.
Did we forget Pray
Turn this Mother Out and Let's Get is Started were his first hits. Then was Here Comes the Hammer, Pray, and his biggest hit U Can't Touch This. His next biggest hit was Too Legit to Quit. And an Adams Family song was a minor hit then too.
@@cheeseburger12 I liked the Funky Headhunter album, the production was top notch and really funky west coast stuff.
@@cartoonworld1000 Pumps and the Bumps! I remember seeing that video and thinking....WHAT!?!?! Hammer?
They weren’t parachute pants. Parachute pants were form fitting nylon pants.
Thats the Typewriter...
Chkout the '2 legit 2 quit' video.
The first 8min is like a movie so its long.
Another vote for listening to "To Legit to Quit"
literally came to say he needs to check out 2 legit
Hammer went so hard in that video, he was like non stop dancing hard as hell. Imagine if he made workout videos LMAO
Add my vote too for “Too Legit”!!
I went to a Hammer concert - OMG the energy!
"Have You Seen Her", Gaining Momentum", "Too Legit To Quit"
Don't forget pray

Baby Got Snacks- Trail Mix a lot (Jamie Foxx) “In Living Color”
YESSSS!!!
I’m glad you got to this one! I was around 18 when this came out. It was so catching! A really fun song! Now I’m an old lady sitting here jamming and vibrating lol. Had to watch twice!
Vibrating???😏😜 that word has a different meaning to an old like me😂😂😁
L B lol I couldn’t think of a better word! 😂
right here with ya sister - old lady chair dancing, reliving great memories :)
I am on my 3rd go round honey 😂 I just love seeing him love our jams !!!

i never heard of it known as the hammer shuffle, always the running man but interesting
@@thedominator87 the running man was when he was sideways like he was running but not the hammer shuffle was when he was on his tippy toes going back and forth

They are called Harem pants, when I was in school they called them hammer pants.

“Turn This Mutha Out”, MC Hammer
MC sampled Rick James’ “ Super Freak”. The original video had his band and dancers - guys- I found it more entertaining- the hair and outfits were off the charts!
Stole not sampled
@@donaldjz I thought he had Rick's permission.. ♠W.G.
@@wgdavis5353 there was a lawsuit involved which was settled out of court and Rick James was given writing credit on the song.
@@donaldjz sampled not stole, but they did without permission because at that time there was no real use of sampling in mainstream before the extensive use in hip hop, so no one really knew about the legal repercussions which is why after 91-92 people were getting permission before sampling.

Rock/ Rap crossover: Anthrax/Public Enemy "Bring the Noise"
For something more straight rock: Bad Brains "I Against I"
Marky Mark and the Funky Bunch - Good Vibrations
I've been hoping you would do this one!
That move i believe was the tightrope. Great reaction, i think your the only one who could give Hammer a run on the dance floor.
React to Neneh Cherry - Buffalo Stance
That whole album is amazing.
Seven seconds too.
@Mars Blackmon - yesssss
Mars Blackmon Or Half Man Half Biscuit - The Len Ganley Stance. In fact, anything by HMHB.
Yeeeeeeeeees!
Him and Vanilla Ice had some moves. And People are still listening to them nearly 30 years later.
We were all just waiting here for that second when he hit THAT STEP in his dance he called the Chinese typewriter routine to see your jaw drop! We just knew your good time over there was REALLY gonna jump right through the roof! 😉😁❤😎🤘
Anorher great MC Hammer hit is "2 Legit 2 Quit". Also, please do Buffalo St ance by Neneh Cherry
The way you love to dance you will explode with this. It is fabulous. Never fails to astound.
That reaction was hilarious, you really made me laugh 😂
Back in the day the Music was so good, we danced all night! We danced so much not being mean, it was rare you saw any young person that was out of shape. We danced everywhere!
Oh I love your reaction to this very popular Hammer song!! You have to get some parachute pants (also known as Hammer pants ) I hope you show us your moves once you get them down 💓☮️🇨🇦
He called that sideways move "The Chinese Typewriter".
What Time Is It 🤣💕💎 It’s Hammer Time !!!
We had so much fun trying to do the MC Hammer dance in the clubs! Please do Neneh Cherry's "Buffalo Stance". Love that one!
Lol. I'm 55 , my 6 yo just came running across the room, I like this song. He's beside me singing and dancing to it.
Please check it “It Takes 2” by Rob Base & DJ Ez Rock.
Right About Now............
Yes do it!
Guaranteed banger!
Great choice
Check out MC Hammer "Pray"
Yes.
Another vote for "Pray" by M C Hammer This song, "Pray" was the one song that made me interested in hip hop and rap music. I thought I would never, never like any song in that category.
My fave by him!
We need this in today's society
This song "Pray" was the song that convinced me to listen to his other songs. I never would have heard this song without hearing "Pray" first
Welcome to the amazing 90's ! Since this song, the stop-sign (traffic) would never be the same XD. Thanks :)
Mc Hammer They put me in the mix
”Too Legit to Quit” and ”The Addams Family”
This is the best reaction video I've ever seen. The look on your face was priceless.
OldWhiteLady here again, hey Rome I love when you do throw back videos
😂 From South Alabama
Your face and dance moves on this -- PRICELESS!!!! Next song by MC Hammer, "2Legit 2 Quit."
"Pray" was another pretty cool song by him. That one uses a sample from Prince's "When Doves Cry."
2 Legit 2 Quit is another of his biggest hits.
The phrase, the moves and the pants...became famous. And all these years later, if you say the name MC Hammer to people of a certain age, they'll come back with "Can't touch this!"
or Hammer Time.
ANOTHER great mover and shaker! Can't sit still...💖
MC Hammer's got a long list of songs that are great starting with Ring em
You thought this was crazy, I got to see him in concert with a full stadium! What was amazing! Bless you!

OMGS I forgot how much I LOVED this growing up - one of those songs you can't help moving to even if you feel stupid or you're sick or whatever the f*ck - even if I try to keep still, I can't
That's pretty much true of most people. This mega-hit swept the Grammies radio-play MTV PEOPLE MAGAZINE every media.
The Amazing MC Hammer ❤
You've opened a can of worms: 90s funk. Soul to Soul, Back to Life. Boyz to Men, Motown Philly. Lauryn Hill, Do Wop. Dee Light, Groove is in the Heart. Will Smith, Men in Black
I love Groove is in the heart. The song is great but man the video truly captured the essence of it.
You mentioned Will Smith. I would include his Wild Wild West. The live onstage version for the MTV music awards he did that featured Dru Hill, Kool Mo De and Stevie Wonder was crazy!
This is one of my favorite reactions of yours yet! Your facial expressions are priceless!

Humpty Dance by Digital Underground
Bust a Move by Young MC
"Pump and a Bumps" is an awesome MC Hammer song too!

Nobody could touch MC Hammer dance moves back in the day. Your reaction is Everything. Get it Rome Life.
You just witnessed the height of
"Raps"mainstream......appeal..
"The Bump" was for a few years in the 70's. It is a dance move u do with your dance partner. U bump each other hips with the beat.
Need to also watch "In Living Colors" parody video of this with Tommy Davidson!...funny!
I still watch it every now and then when I need a laugh
😂 Man did this take me back! You can NOT sit still when an MC Hammer song comes on!!!🎶😉🎶
And, I still have my outfit, with the haram pants and matching top, from the early ‘90s!
We’d peg the bottoms of the pant legs so they’d balloon out!!! 😂🥰😉👍
If you haven't already listened to these, listen to these:
Rick James - Superfreak
Young MC: Bust a Move

Not enough reactors react to Bust A Move yet!
THIS SONG ALWAYS MAKES ME MOVE!
I remember everyone doing that move in the clubs back in th day. Another one was Kool Moe Dee . WILD WILD WEST . If you wanna see another old school dance move watch the video

Fabulous reaction! It was the jam of its time.
One of the best appreciation reaction I've seen on one awesome, awesome song/dance!
Young MC, great history, artist and creator.

Omg I just loved watching you dance in the corner there...brilliant haha
Hahahaha! Youll be walkin round singing CANT TOUCH THIS!!
I did the "Hammer-dance" with Hammer and like 20 other people on-stage at The Riviera here in Vegas about 8 years ago. Well I attempted the dance. Lol
GREAT DANCING going on in the Lower Right Corner! WOW.
M.C. could really bust a move
Another classic music from the 80s great fashion back then
An obscure Hammer hit that I like is called "Crime Stories" If you want to listen to a silly, flirtatious song by M C Hammer go for "YO Sweetness!! Your'e My Weakness!!"
Enjoy. Great song.
Love your reaction.
The 80’s!!! We danced and danced...life was great....hammer, run DMC, Morris day and the time.....everyone was looking like hammer in those Jeanie pants💜
It makes me so happy to see young cats like you learn what real Singing and music is all about
