I remember Rob was frustrated. Source magazine had an advance copy of Life Story and gave it 5 out of 5 mics, but for sum reason Puff still wasnt ready to release it and wanted Rob to put even further fine touches to the album b4 it was released.
Pac is from Harlem but his queens ties were stronger to the point people from Harlem don't even know he's from Harlem. I have people in Esplanade and Harlem River and they don't even know.
Black Rob performed at Cornell University in 2002 my second day home. It was crazy. He did Whoa like 4 or 5 times. He tried another song...lost us...went right back to Whoa. Shit was fire, not gone lie.
@mauricedues231 when Black Rob jumped off the building and landed on the truck to explosions me and everyone in my high school damn near lost their minds. The video, the beat and the vibe had every radio station and nightclub on lock 🔐 R.I.P Rob ❤️✊🏿🙏
Black Rob Life Story was one of the best album in 2000. G-Dep Child Of The Ghetto was one of my favorite album in 2001.i still have both Cds in my Cd Collection
Woah still on my playlist till this day, I used to have a big ass poster of that whole black rob album in my room, that was a good time in hip hop period
funny how a lot of New Yorkers dont fw Pac cause of his personality, yet whole time, he had a NEW YORK PERSONALITY 😂 loud, disruptive & animated in a white tank top & timbs is not Cali culture, thats a New York blueprint signature. meanwhile DMX, who came out 2yrs later with the same personality & look, got praised for bein real New York lmaooo
Yall must have never been to or actually know anyone from NYC. Lived here 34 yrs & was definitely outside & that whole east v west crap was only for the suburban folks. No one had any problems with Pac & I know a lot of people playin west coast music all day in the boros
@@13adLucEnt boa you FASHO wont outside 😂 i got ppl from NY & they was NOT fw Pac cause they thought he was too extra. you can even look on RUclips to see how they feel bout Pac lmaooo stop the cap
Woah has to be in the greatest hip hop songs of all time list. It was so universal. Even though it was a East Coast rapper but every coast could relate to that song. The beat is 🍌🔥🍌🔥🍌🔥🍌
I'm from right where G.Dep is from..literally. I used to see Pac back in the days too. A lot around 110th and Lexington like in 90, 91. When he had the flat top with the fade.
@TheBulletzgottishow20 What in the Blue Hell are you talking about??????? 2Pac was Already on!!!!!!! Shock G put Pac on! Pac knew Puff was a Clown he was trying to get Biggie to see it!

@@shhadoethugautonomy8519 yo you can’t comprehend I see what I mean by putting him on was to let him know that Jimmy and Jack was plotting on him pac beef was with Jimmy and Jack you being disrespectful for no reason
That whole Life Story album from Black Rob was Fire!! "Ease pain wit cocaine like Whoa!... Now I'm Doc Strange in the Range like Whoooaa!"...G Dep tore that Special Delivery joint to shreds!...Art you was definitely bugging... Salute from Motown Motor City Detroit😎😎💪
You have to remember, Whoa was released in 2000. At that time everybody hated Puff Daddy for being to commercial. People hated the shiny suits and everyone was loving Cash Money, No Limit, Ruff Ryders and Rocafella. G-Dep is right, Black Rob saved Bad Boy because it was on life support.
@@terencejones22 Mase was gone by 2000, Kim wasn't on Badboy. Black Rob spearheaded that year up untill The Saga Continues album. Shyne came along the way and it helped bring that appeal back
G del honestly was my fav rappers..that child of the ghetto so motivating. I was rooting for him so hard back in the days.. I definitely wanna hear some new bars
Yeah that album was dope af. I liked black rob ever since i heard him on no way out album. I was same age in highschool when black robs album dropped, 2000, i wqs a sophmore
After Big died, Ma$e was the one that kept Bad Boy afloat. By the time Dep came around, Bad Boy was a shell of itself. But 97-99, Ma$e was the one who had Bad Boy doing big things. Then he left the game early 99
This dude is a genuine Good Gangster Gentleman. This dude humbled himself and paid his dues for his sin. And come back as the embodiment of what a Real Gangster from that era who grew up and cut out that ugly part of you. So you can learn to enjoy life and become what a man is supposed to be. Strong Wise and Grown. Not on some dumb shit in your 40’s and 50’s. Dep’s Story is a lot of folks story who overcame their past sins and found happiness and success. I wish G Dep Health, Wealth and Prosperous Opportunities for him and his.
I remember when Whoa dropped!! I was 7 years old!! You heard everyone on the streets playing it, tv was showing it, like you had to live under a rock to not no about that song back than!!

And that song was the best song on the album too crazy
Life Story album had no bad tracks on it. It's definitely a classic.

It seems like everyone seen Pac when he was shooting “Above The Rim” it's like every rapper that was a kid or a teen at that time seen Pac.
We was outside back then. We didn't have social media and very few people had internet.
They also seen bugal00 sh00ting pac at the end of abovetherim too 😅
Pac is from Harlem
Pac is from Harlem but his queens ties were stronger to the point people from Harlem don't even know he's from Harlem. I have people in Esplanade and Harlem River and they don't even know.
Yet they were saying that Juelz Santana lied when he said he saw pac in Harlem
Pac was active, He was really outside.

I been to both Tunnels Newyork and the Tunnel in Baltimore and Both of them were off the hook.
You had to have your shit correct in the tunnel back in the 90’s and early 2000’s lol. Shit was like a club for rikers island lml
Yeah and no at the same time. Shit was dangerous 😂
Shit wasn't made for just " anyone " if you weren't outside outside & not with your crew or some regular nikka, you weren't gonna get inside 😂
Black Rob whoa was definitely a Bannger 🔥🔥
Pac always hollering at a girl he was not afraid to shoot his shot 😂😂😂😂
Exchanging numbers was how it was done back then. Now they exchange social media accounts.
He right whoa was a hood tsunami
"Whoa" was dope AF.🔥🔥🔥💯
"Whoa" Was A Universal Classic
whoa was a big record in nyc i was only 14 but the record was everywhere

It’s called “Keep it Gangsta”. When y’all check it out leme know what u think. Also play it with something that has strong bass.
After Big died, everybody was keeping it alive. Including Diddy, the Rnb acts, the collabs, and Rap acts
YES SIR
Pac still the greatest 🤷🏾♂️
U mean the gayest to ever do u fanboys in the closet?

Not oversimplify a great moment but seeing Pac in Harlem mean you saw Pac in his home town where he lived most of his life.
Exactly!
Was it Harlem or Bx he lived at tho

Perfect description of Whoa!
The tunnel in NY was like our Gotham in Philly on Delaware ave for the people who remember 🎤🎧🎵🎶
This is nice to hear !!
Whoa was crazy. Im 40 and I was 16 or 17 when it came out. I lived that moment.
Facts, still crazy today
Yeah that album was dope af. I liked black rob ever since i heard him on no way out album. I was same age in highschool when black robs album dropped, 2000, i wqs a sophmore
I’m 49 and I lived that shit too. It was fire 🔥
I think I saw Big at the Tunnel too. I remembered thinking to myself, “Damn, this fat ninja pulling some baddies."
That whoa was ridiculous!!! I remember that!! Bought that I wanna say it was the year 2000.
G-Dep been a “Child of the Ghetto” Now that he’s home homie still giving a “special delivery” with these interviews WORD 💯
That Tunnel stories seems legendary. Wish I could've seen it

Gone but not forgetting RIP PAC AND BLACK ROB 😭😭😭😭🙏🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️❤️
Black Rob's *song* "Life Story" chorus makes me cry from nostalgia.
MY 'LIFE STORY' IS LIKE 'WHOA' ..
Like Whoa was 🔥🔥🔥
Facts it's hard to make the crowd go crazy in NYC we picky as hell 😂 But Black Rob had the City going Crazy with that Record 🔥
i remember i was in 4th/5th grade when woah came out and it definitely hit us in dc the same way he explained it. Woah is a timeless classic.
Some of these rappers knew 2pac before they was rapper's
you knew whoa was a big record when the remix dropped wit like 10 mcs on it
Johnson Houses and Black Rob from Jefferson that’s crazy
Eastside El-Barrio
Remember after seeing the "whoa" video went & bought the CD. Still have it to this day!

“Whoa” was hard! Rap classic…
Black rob 1st album was str8 dope the whoa song just added to that legendary album ....real talk

Tunnel was 🔥 in those days......new York stand up

The way he described “Whoa” 😆

"ayyo, I walk down the block w/ my stomach in knots
spent time hustlin' running from cops"
I saw the Whoa video on the Bad Boy 10th anniversary dvd hate that it’s the clean version of it though
Whoa was almost my "class song" Senior Year. Then I met Rob in front of Daddy's House. He a cool dude.
I came home from a bid wen woe was fresh out dat anthem had da venues goin crazy
When the beginning of whoa came on before you ever heard him start talking you would go crazy
This is what realness looks like, he’s a rare breed.
The quarters ( Latin Quarters) was the 80s version of the Tunnel
I know Pac shitted on NY cats heavy but i wish Manhattan/Harlem showed him more love!
