This track is a perfect example of the kind of energy that hip hop no longer has. This video/song just had that "feel" to it...Oh and Prime Minister Pete Nice was super FRESH with the style!
@@ricogomez4020 nah. The challenge then becomes to flip those "samples" in a different way then anyone did previously. Nowadays everyone uses the same ten computer-generated instruments/sound effects and that's why everything sounds exactly the same.
Loved the remix. This was when the rap game was nYce. I'm from Detroit & could care less where rappers came from as long as it was good shit. Thumbs up if you agree. RIP real rap music 1987-1998.
Nah, bro. I swear to you I've been trying to say exactly what you said for years now. These young kids today think their music is the shit. It's exactly that: shit. Dudes are even afraid to dance today let alone rap. Their shit is made for the now. Dude, 50 to 100 and even 1000 years from now some kid is gonna give this and be like yeah this thing called old school rap is fuckin cool. So yeah I agree it died in 1998. Once pac and big were gone, it was done. Much and love to Detroit.
@@nicksandz3209 You're right. Real rap died about 98 but Hip Hop died for sure in 2006. The bullshit started right after that with SouljaBoy and went downhill from there.
@@paulkersey1007 Truth. I really agree with that. Kids will look back and be like this is fucking cool. Some are already doing it. Much love and respect to you.
Marley Marl rocked this cut like none other. A straight-up classic cut, that sample is off the chain, the rhymes are tight. Pete set it off from the 1st verse to the last, man real Hip-Hop was something special.
Wanted to give a like, but I saw its at 111 and ill not destroy this magical number ;) yes, what's music nowadays? Poor : ( nice to listen to these tracks!
No, this was their signature song. Serch even named his solo "Return of the Product. It's the song the 1 3rd Bass song the great Marley Marl choose to remix. This song directly influenced work by artists such as Ice Cube and Scarface.
@@91dodgespiritrt didn't Russell Simmons appropriate these "talentless Jews" into hip hop culture for mass consumption? Also "why" do you use quotation marks "in" strange places?
Pete Nice had a serious swag. I was just listening to this in my car and decided to jump on youtube to watch the video after not seeing it for many years. This beat is hella tough too but damn... for the 2 that disliked this video, what were y'all expecting to see, Vanilla Ice??
I am a 55 year old man, and I remember this... 1988, in my opinion, the single greatest hear in hip hop history. Check what came out that year. 3rd Bass debut 1988... so many others. Still great and will forever be great.
I copped this 12 inch vinyl at Rock and Soul on 35th street back in the day... all my New York dudes know what it is... RIP to all the vinyl spots, Fat Beats, All the Music Factories downtown Brooklyn, Jamaica Queens, Fordham Rd in the BX! Basement Records, Downstairs record, Vinyl Mania.
A friend of mine had this on cassette. I had never heard drum programming like this and the combination of the old school patterns and style make it a memorable classic. I used to hear Westwood and The Family Quest drop this at Spats. 💥💥💥💥
This came around 1988-1989. Just got out of high school. These guys were my jawn back in the day! We used to hear this on Lady B's show on Sunday afternoons on Power 99 in Philadelphia. She played the best rap songs and groups. But only on Sundays. So crazy to think about how it was back then...
My cousin use to live in Edgemere . Use to walk from Edgemere all the way to play land and get on that rollercoaster. Then jump into the beach. I miss those days.
The whole world needs to watch this video. We could all come together, respect one another’s hoods, help one another out and most of all…. Be a product of the environment.
For anyone wondering, this is the Project Remix. This version of this song contains samples of 7 artists: The Cast of All in the Family - "Why God Made Hands" (1971) Fred Wesley & the J.B.'s - "Blow Your Head" (1974) (Intro) Maceo & the Macks - "Soul Power '74" (1974) The Meters - "Sing a Simple Song" (1969) The Emotions - "Blind Alley" (1972) (Drums) The Cast of All in the Family - "Sweety Pie Roger" (1971) LL Cool J - "I'm Bad" (1987)
@Pookie2419 They also got props for really actually being from where they said were from and go to those places they said they went. There was no frontin and thats what ppl respected.
I saw Dj Richie Rich in line @ the Fontana California DMV like 10 years ago.. No bullshit.. I was like what??? LOL This is definitely my Favorite 3rd Bass Joint.. Steppin to the A.M. a close 2nd
This was probably the best joint made by this group because of the way that they used that blues guitar sample. Honestly this crew had a lot of good stuff and I really liked the Cactus Album. Hip Hop just doesn't sound this good anymore
I loved this dudes man. Just the name of the group was just dope to me. I enjoyed seeing the different designs Serch had cut in his hair too. Pete Nice was just dope, Rich was crazy with the tables. I def appreciate their contribution to the culture.
This is so dope young ppl nowadays have no idea how sick the old days were. Hip hop out now doesn’t even come close to comparing. I don’t care if people say you have to get with times cause I don’t. If I could go back to 1989 90 91 I would
I learned to DJ of this & DJ Scratch's solo at the end of EPMD's "So What You Saying?" Always practiced making this an instrumental & blending it with Gang Starr's "Just To Get A Rep!"
This era of rap is as equally legit as early rock and roll. Serch here is embodying the same spirit as Chuck Berry, Jerry Lee Lewis and even Little Richard. Early hip-hop embodies the same spirit as well as the spirit of jazz. This is high art. Anyone who denies the importance of rap never studied this era from a musical history perspective.
I remember being depressed in 1993 or whatever when I found out the Gladiator single was the last 3rd Bass tune cos they broke up. Every single piece of music these dudes released was certified unkut pure dope
I remember this joint. 3rd base pro'lly one of the most sleeped on groups in hip hop history unless you lived in NYC and knew about them back then. I was sooooo glad they came out b/c the bestie boys were too silly.
Pete was super underrated as an emcee
He most definitely didn't come along at the right time. Or maybe he just had shitty management.
Better m and m
Stop saying everything is underrated. They were huge in 89.
@@babyblutube-s5j not really bro. Took years for the Cactus album to go Gold. Get the hate out your blood

Hip-Hop ran out of songs to sample that's what happened.

@ Ronnie Run
Rich had that DJ contest in his pocket, But they had u give it to Q
Scratch kicked a** too
Like all rap like all old school rap like all hip-hop like all 90s like all 3rd bass💯
I love blastin this classic in my car so these kids today can hear what it was like in the days of HIP HOP.
Jim Borghini This is a very dope track. You're right to blast this music to kids to show them the true sounds of hip-hop.

I Agree👌✨
was richie rich not marley marl

Today's hip hop is nothing compared to classics like this...
Truth!
Yo for real
So seriously true!!!!!
Mannnnn if you don't love 3rd Bass you don't love hip hop
This white guy in his fifties concurs 100%!
I love hip hop just don't like them 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I don't like Hip-Hop but I like them.@@KingDro-c5r
This was the New York I grew up too. This my hip hop. ✊🏾✊🏾
This is one of the dopest beats in hip-hop!!!!!
+Brian Hudson You maybe right, and In my opinion, you cant get more hip-hop than during the late 80s and early 90s.
T Brown That's exactly the point because I was a high school student at the time when hip-hop was at its dopest!!!!
1987-1993
thank Marley Marl for that remix
Classic Marley Marl beat.
I was in high school when this came out. 3rd bass def underrated, pete nice killed this track.
new too ,so you must be around 47 years old when
same im 47 now. This was my shit.
Senior year high school. Best of times
Petes best verse was wordz of wisdom second verse...ludacris bhuddist...
This is like, a zillion times better than the vast majority of so-called hip hop that's out there these days.
Wanted to give a like, but I saw its at 111 and ill not destroy this magical number ;) yes, what's music nowadays? Poor : ( nice to listen to these tracks!
That's a hip-hop blasphemy 101 to compare those two LOL #GenX
1000%
Uh welcome to 1990
These guys don't get the respect they deserve. The production was amazing.
Very underrated song of theirs, one of the very best they ever did.

Much respect to your pops
And your pops has made some of the dopest beats in all of hip-hop. He's a cool dude, too!!!!!

Nothing even comes close to 1990's hip-hop - - a very special era
dis shits from 88
Definitely special 💪

Do you remember when they pissed off Mc Hammer over the lyric in Cactus about his mother?
This was and STILL is the jam!!! Powerful lyrics .... pity, we don't have music like this anymore.
You right man!
hip hop at its finest. I listened to this some many times on my walkman walking home from high school.

That DJ Daddy Rich ‘LL’ Scratch at the beginning is still my FAVORITE cut EVER on WAX . SALUTE one of the GOATS RICHIE RICH & the WHOLE SUPERMEN CREW.
I gave 3rd Bass love back in the day. I was totally in tune to hip hop.
A friend of mine had this on cassette. I had never heard drum programming like this and the combination of the old school patterns and style make it a memorable classic. I used to hear Westwood and The Family Quest drop this at Spats. 💥💥💥💥
Excellent. Watching Pete Nice deliver the last verse I get goosebumps.
This is a really great video all around.
Who else went out and bought this on vinyl or cassette when this dropped?
this song never gets old
It's too timeless to get old
Far Rockaway will always be my home. Dope ass track
Pete Nice had swag before swag was swag.
I used to emulate pete in high school. He was a cool ass dude.
Pete still has that swag .😂 I seen him in the universal Hip Hop exhibit in the Bronx NYC . He still got that swag . No lie.
Lol....imagine a scene in a movie like in fast times withall the fake Pat Bentitarz.....hahhaaha
He thought he was "White Daddy Kane!"
It’s funny cause Serch was kinda corny ... I never noticed that when I was a kid 😂😂
Most underrated of the 90's. Really!
This was the 80s

Seriously!!!!
Exactly it's a classic New York sound that's what's missing from New York scene now.
yeah my oldest bro knew peter nash aka pete nice he went to Colombia university and he was in the same class as him English.
I remember hearing this when it came out, and this beat just filled me with hip-hop. Brothers in Rockaway still don't play that.
My cousin use to live in Edgemere . Use to walk from Edgemere all the way to play land and get on that rollercoaster. Then jump into the beach. I miss those days.
Yup still go hard in 2022 !!!!!!! 🔥 🔥 🔥

Real rap from the street does not matter of race! The music was real the lyrics was real they told the story from the streets!

Always thought the remix went way harder than the album version. This track was a banger!
Allways liked them ,they were authentic and talented ,never stepped outside their place to try to "act black " or "hispanic".Respect to 3rd Bass!!!
