I'm an old head, the song is good but it's definitely not his best song. There's a reason why we call him the god MC. Rakim is the John Coltrane of Hip Hop. He was the first to create multi-word, multi-syllabic, internal rhyme schemes. Every rapper that has come after him is utilizing one of his rhyme schemes.
Did u hear the. I go to queens for queens and get. . .. that was the best entendre in history of rap. It was 8. And doubled both ways. Queens is a section of NY. Queens is where he go for his girls. Now factor the next 5 lines doing the same thing.
When the record scratches it says "Knowledge" and that's what Rakim was saying guess he didn't "Know the ledge" he didn't have the Knowledge. Deep song
It's also a straight four measures on the breaks... It doesn't let you rest. Already one of my favorite teenage songs, but it's just clever... All tension
Just so all of the younger folks out there are aware of this …that man rapping in that video :Rakim Allah the God MC is the best to ever do it period. 🖤🥶
What’s good “BOSSES” Please react next to Rakim’s & Eric B’s 1.”Let the Rhythm hit em” 2 “lyrics of Fury” 3. Follow the leader 4. “The punisher” 5. “ Microphone Fiend”
You just heard the greatest rapper ever give you a small sample of his repertoire; with not just syllable to syllable iambic pentameter, rhyme for rhyme in each bar, enunciation, lyricism, foreshadowing, rhythm pattern spitted synchronically to the drumbeat, and you never hear him take a breath... never hear a mumbled made up word... clean lyrics chosen still goes harder than other raps with explicit profane language at the time...gangster AF... and gives us the entire plot & story arch of the unreleased film Juice long before it had been released in theaters. Rakim is the G.O.A.T. and the originator who showed us all how a master rapper conducts himself on the mic. Eminem is the rap GOD and continued to grow stronger & be better at what were his weaknesses - and proclaims there is no Em without Rakim to show him how high the bar is set to be the baddest mc there is. The R is the master
Yal need to do hood movie classis sound traks .from back in the days Cooley High, Claudine.SuperFly., The Mack, Shaft, Lets Do It Again and so many more. If you say you do movies than you should do hood classic and really understand were come from as a poeple and please check out Cab Calloway and the Nicolas Brothers Jumping and Jive.
Little known fact: they couldn’t get the drums right on this so Rakim told them to mic up the drum set and he played the drums you’re hearing on this record!
To judge how great an MC is…..see what the genre was like b4 he got there…..then see what it was like after. KEEP IN MIND ALSO….how nice they were with the bars. If u ain’t nice with your bars and punchlines your don’t deserve to be on any Mount Rushmore or top 5 lists.
This not his best song. Honestly. He got to many "Best Songs" Follow The Leader Microphone Fiend Let The Rthym Hit'em 18 Letter "which is one of the greatest rhymes ever written " Thats How I get Down.
Naw this song is fire, but far from his best . Check out the song, I want to know what's on your mind. The song called the ghetto. Another song is when I b on the mic. And many more. But think about the lyrics that he's spitting. Dudes today can't match anything that he done. In the 80's,90's,and today that's why he's not the goat. But the God MC.

"Don't Sweat the Technique ", "Mahogany ", "Let the Rhythm Hit Em " 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Follow the leader is his best song 🔥
Agree
For real there are many from the GOD MC that are as great...this 1 included...no joke...1
No lies told!
He’s the greatest to ever hold a microphone. Hands down.
Why did he hold it with his hands down
ABSOFUCKINGLUTELY!!!
This is my favorite Rakim track.
It's also a straight four measures on the breaks... It doesn't let you rest. Already one of my favorite teenage songs, but it's just clever... All tension
One of the most complete songs - an actually story from birth to death. Genius!
Just so all of the younger folks out there are aware of this …that man rapping in that video :Rakim Allah the God MC is the best to ever do it period. 🖤🥶
LYRICS OF FURY
Rakim, react to one of the following if not all of them : Microphone fiend, Let The Rhythm Hit them, follow the leader, the 18th letter.
Beat and Lyrics are solo hard!!! I feel this is his best storytelling joint!!!!!!
One of his best
I never thought I’d be telling my grandson about the beginnings of HIP HOP. It’s great to see deferent generations getting into HIP HOP
Pretty sure nobody's ever made lyrics that powerful to a beat that hard. My favorite song from the golden era
This old school Banger is 🔥 Fire
Every song that Eric B & Rakim did was unique in its own way. NBA 2k and other game owners are just glad they existed.
One of his best but not to all.. Microphone Feind, Mahogany, What’s on your mind, Holy R U, You and I, In the Ghetto… he got joints!!
"Guess Who's Back" ('97) is another Rakim gem you should react to!
What’s good “BOSSES”
Please react next to Rakim’s & Eric B’s
1.”Let the Rhythm hit em”
2 “lyrics of Fury”
3. Follow the leader
4. “The punisher”
5. “ Microphone Fiend”

Rakim Follow The Leader and this song are my fave two
Rakim did the drums on this track.
“Mahogany” their best song to me Beat and substance.
“In The Ghetto” & “Follow The Leader”
You're just getting warmed up when it comes to Eric B and Rakim. Next to songs should be Follow The Leader and Microphone Fiend.
87-89 fashion is the best, pants are a lil baggy and but still fit. Shirts are fit and jackets are baggy. Best shoes too✌🏽🇩🇴

Actually rakim is the one that did the beat on this one. I was shocked too
Funfact Rakim produced this beat
Rakim is the god emcee. Facts.
I need for you guys to do Rakim's Let the Rhythm Hit em and Follow the Leader.
FOLLOW THE LEADER of his best IMO! Followed by Mahogany.
Eric didn't produce this. It was all Ra with a little help from Keith Shocklee to help the ending
It's just too good.😢

New Request Eric B & Rakim - Lyrics Of Fury
Little known fact: they couldn’t get the drums right on this so Rakim told them to mic up the drum set and he played the drums you’re hearing on this record!

The God MC
If I had to pick one song for “Best Rap/Hip Hop Song” of all time, this would be it.
Saying it's their best song is subjective
The God Mc❤❤❤❤❤.

Eric B and Rakim "Lyrics of Fury "
Follow the leader is their best no doubt.
Lyrics of Fury and When I'm Flowin'.
Yoooo!!! Method man & Mary J.

Do 1 for La the dark man amerikkas nightmare & Ice Cube life, 2 of the hardest rap song ever
You have to react to My melody Eric B & Rakim
You need to check out another banger by them. Check out In The Ghetto
This being his best song is cap. A lot of his songs were around the same heat 🔥🔥🔥
"Follow the Leader"
FYI: Rakim also made the beat.
Hold on I love this joint BUT “Lyrics of Fury” is Rakim at his best. The name of the song says everything
Don't sweat the technique the god rhyme
Where and when was Rakim born?.......I feel he's older than me.......and thusly......
LOL
Check out my momma raised a g by Medusa the gangstas goddess
This not his best song. Honestly. He got to many "Best Songs"
Follow The Leader
Microphone Fiend
Let The Rthym Hit'em
18 Letter "which is one of the greatest rhymes ever written "
Thats How I get Down.
I think rappers rap better the less they cuss. Your rapping sounds broader and less repetative the less you cuss.
Check out erick b rakim's casualty of war
Check out I Got Soul!!
The track is produced by Rakim not Eric B.
Track is top ten... Rakim letting the piano kinda trill run in the kinda mini-bridge is hot
IMO Rakim best joint is
Lyrics of Fury
His name is Rakim, not Eric B
Large Professor produced this, not Eric B.
Large Professor did not make this beat. Rakim made this and also played the drums for this beat.
Naw their best song is the ghetto
Not their best but a good classic joint nonetheless 🔥
Yo young Kings that's not the best Eric B and Rakim lyric is fear on Follow the lead album
This isn’t their best song although it is very good.
Eric b didn't really produce anything he just got paid i think paul c and marley produced most of the music
This is not close to Rakim's best track what is you crazy son
Naw this song is fire, but far from his best . Check out the song, I want to know what's on your mind. The song called the ghetto. Another song is when I b on the mic. And many more. But think about the lyrics that he's spitting. Dudes today can't match anything that he done. In the 80's,90's,and today that's why he's not the goat. But the God MC.
not the best of rakim its the master Albam
Def not their best song lol but ig that's what thus journey is for 😁
That's a great song but it's not his best song
Great song but nowhere near his best song!!
Not his best lol popular
RAKIM IS RHYMING, NOT ERIC B. !!! ALSO RAKIM DID THE BEAT AND PLAYED THE DRUMS ON THIS SONG.
