"Lemonade was a popular drink and it still is I get more props and stunts than Bruce Willis".... One of the lyrical versus EVER!! LIVE IN ETERNAL SPIRIT ALWAYS ANGEL ANCESTOR GURU!! 🙌🏾🎛
You gotta get the rest in there: "A poet like Langston Hughes and can't lose when I cruise....out on the expressway... leaving the bodega I say suave...clips are inserted into my gun...so I can get the money never have to run..."
And to think Def Jam Records turn down this track. They thought it wasn't a Nice & Smooth song, but thank goodness for Chrysalis Records for believing in the song and putting it out. The rest is history as we know it.
I first heard this song in Mexico when I went down on vacation. It was being played at a small record shop on a corner. I told the owner “I don’t know what album that is but I want it lol”. He took it out and gave it to me.
This song will forever hold a special place in my heart. It was the first song I remember discovering on my own without my older brothers telling me it was good 🤣
This was one of the first things i watched on youtube lol- this and derrickcomedy, slaughter ricos freestyle, Smosh, FPS Russia, Epic Meal Time, Nick Swardson…. The Nostalgia is real, never thought RUclips would bring me that since it was Brand New not that long ago lol
One of the songs that made the golden age of hip hop. Dwyck was a classic song and it still is. These four guys deserve as much props and stunts as Bruce Willis. And pure knowledge expands from my oesophagus. I write this at night to bring truth to the light, my dialogue is my own even if from smooth b I definitely bite bite bite bite The beat, scratches, cuts, the lyrics are awesome
The golden age era of hip hop could never be outdone or duplicated. I would've killed to have grown up in this era. Hip hop, R&B, the TV shows and movies were on point if not always. And an era of classic MCs including Guru that the new school simply ain't fu*king with today. RIP Guru. 👊👊👊👊👊👊👊
David Richardson Came of age in this era. I was 15 in 1990;25 in 2000. The 1990s was a veritable cultural explosion. That said I would have liked to have come of age in the 70s when I was born.lol
It was awesome! I'm blessed to have so many musical influences. So many different eras my Grandparents, my parents, hip hop even rock and country. I love music! I need a job at the radio station..lol
I did man. The 90's was the Era of TRUE authentic Hip-Hop - these guys, the Pharcyde, the Fushnikins, Digable Planets, Souls of mischief, Tribe Called Quest, Cypress Hill, Wu-Tang Clan, Nas, Biggie, 2pac, Snoop, Dre, etc. Today Hip hop is dead....... Sadly....
@@bobtwichew3103 Yo know what its is. wanted peace on earth so to God I prayed some kids across town thought i was afraid....I got an army, I got an army brigade
One of the best 1990s hiphop/rap collaborations ever! God bless the soul and rest in glory forever to the late, great: Guru! Nice & Smooth awesomeness forever!
NO WAY!! I knew a little bit about Greg Nice, but I never knew this is where RTJ’s chorus came from. Hip-Hop can be so cool sometimes. DJ Premier is the man. Rest In Peace to one of the original rappers in this world, Guru.
YASSSS! Video Music Box and Bobby Simmons’ Flava Videos! THAT’S what I used to watch, we didn’t have no cable 😂 Shout out to VJ Ralph McDaniels!!! Man, people used to be so sweaty in those clubs... 😂🤣😂🤣
@@isojojo- he never mumbled he just had a southern accent, that’s like saying theses New Yorkers in the video speak so clear and that’s because 90s hip hop is a New York sound wave mostly
To this day, whenever I hear someone say “one year later” I immediately finish their sentence by replying “peace out Premier take me out with the fader”
"Gang Starr has got to be the sure shot, Nice n Smooth and has got to be the sure shot, Greg - Niiiiice, Greg N - I- C- E....." Yass honey, biggup NYC in 92' I was most thrilled around this era. I was only about 14yrs old, but this song brings back memories boy!
😮Damn!! I remember being 13 & watching this on MTV! Hitting record w/ my vcr! It’s when I first discovered hiphop! & kid Capri too! I had gr8 taste even back when! 🫶🏼
So many late Golden Age Hop Hop tracks are turning 30 in 2024. This DJ, this track, Bop Gun, Keep Ya Head Up, Gin And Juice, Regulate, Bib Poppa, Fantastic Voyage, You Know How We Do It, In The House, Sure Shot, Juicy and so so many others. 2024 is going to be a year full of this era in my playlists for sure.
The Beatnuts are truely one of the dopest of mc’s from back in the day….. I’m from LA and had the pleasure of meeting these cats back when they were in LA promoting this cut…. Props over here!…. They gave me a shout out on the local LA radio station!! I will always remember that!! Much love and big respect to the Beatnuts!!😏😏🙏🏽💯💯💯
2024 y’all, don’t act like yall didn’t come back to this timeless classic track!!! RIP Guru..

As much respect as Gang Starr gets from real hip hop heads, they’re still ridiculously underrated. Legends.
So true!!! Legends
Maaaan
I was strolling for Nice and Smooth and YT brought me here!!!
How Could I Forget Gangstar and GURU....and this song!!
I always loved nice and smooth.
I'm soooooooooo happy you said THAT BECAUSE IT IS ABSOLUTELY TRUE!!!!
Smooth B's verse never gets old I rewind his part every time I hear it.
So did I.
lol me too
Premo's scratches are simplisticly genius.
Facts my gee smooth bee gets slept on for some reason
Smooth B versus was always smooth and neat But But Greg nice is what made the tracks it.
Still one of the most minimal and hardest beats ever.
Sometimes less is more
Preach 👏🏾
True indeed!
DJ premier. The best DJ, period! Listen to all the other rappers albums he has made beats on! From Nas and Grand Puba to Biggie. His ish always hits!
Classics are often simple. #BoomBapForever
"Like a rhinoceros, my speed is prosperous and pure knowledge expands from my esophagus." Damn I miss those days
You can't fade that ni99@ S A. I was looking for somebody to show that verse some Luv. Too cold Damn. 😂👍🏿
I do as well my friend!!! I do as well!!!

Ultimate word play

Smoth B deserved 5 mics for this verse.. One of the best verses ever made.
Indeed
Definitely 🎤🎤🎤🎤🎤🏆
RIP Guru the Legend!!!!!
Yes True legend Guru RIP 🙏
True indeed
Gifted Unlimited Rhymes Universal
Much respect and love to Guru ., RIP
At that time, my art teacher asked us to have a moment of silence for her cousin(Guru) and to the hip hop community.🙏💫
Nobody talks about how pure smooth b’s verse was. Pure genius!!!!!
Always my man crazy
Like melting butter.

That was a great battle between 2 legends...brought back so many memories of some great jams i forgot about

Smooth B's verse is truly smooth and dope as hell
The Golden Era of Hip-Hop.... it can't be duplicated. It's like having soul...either you do or you don't.
You had to have lived it , to really understand this comment. 💯
EXACTLY!!!!💯💯💯💯
They lack the new nack coming from way way back
@Jeremy Leveille more like 85-03
“I write at the night to bring truth to the light my dialogue is my own cuz Smooth B would never bite” ......He murdered that!
Smooth b is criminally underrated
Kelly Robinson very true
Indubitably....
My favorite line from a dope verse!!! Smooth B is a fly cat!!!
I repeat " NEVER BITE".
One of the best that ever spit. GURU RIP🎉
Thirty years ago this classic dropped. Shouts out to the graduating class of 1992. ✌🏾❤ keep rock...

And to think Def Jam Records turn down this track. They thought it wasn't a Nice & Smooth song, but thank goodness for Chrysalis Records for believing in the song and putting it out. The rest is history as we know it.
first cross-label collab ever too!
Lemonade was a popular drink and it still is!

Good man.
One of the best collabs ever! The beat, scratches and the verses make it perfect. R.I.P. Guru
Just a beat. The instruments are their voices. Straight up mad flow from all 3 dudes. That's all you need.
This song will forever hold a special place in my heart. It was the first song I remember discovering on my own without my older brothers telling me it was good 🤣
Me too , I can relate. Want get blunt my brother
This was one of the first things i watched on youtube lol- this and derrickcomedy, slaughter ricos freestyle, Smosh, FPS Russia, Epic Meal Time, Nick Swardson…. The Nostalgia is real, never thought RUclips would bring me that since it was Brand New not that long ago lol
Best Gangsta Rap Punchline of all Time 2:31 : "Clips are inserted into my gun So I can take the money, neva have to run" 💯
2024
kids rhyme better, sad macho shit
A moment of silence, please, for Guru and those who have yet to find this song
Lol🤣🤣🤣🤣
I think Smooth B had the most shine on this joint. I left my philly at home. Do you have another? I want to get blunted my brother. Some smooth shit.
I think Greg Nice did...
"I work too hard for my royalty.
Put lead in your ass and drink a cup of tea!" Illest line in hip hop 🔥
I'm glad he had the closing verse
The whole track is fire
Guru should be celebrated more
Facts💯
Right where I'm stood, he is
One of the best ever to do it.
@@CosmoNaptown this is exactly what I was gonna say
Hell yeah the guru one the best lyrics out there 😎
Never gets old...lift up Guru spirit...respect to Preemo, Nice and Smooth!!
One of the songs that made the golden age of hip hop. Dwyck was a classic song and it still is. These four guys deserve as much props and stunts as Bruce Willis.
And pure knowledge expands from my oesophagus. I write this at night to bring truth to the light, my dialogue is my own even if from smooth b I definitely bite bite bite bite

Def showed love to NJ by recording the video on the boardwalk in Atlantic City. RIP GURU**
Summer of 92 heading out to jones beach bumping this ish
