Rah Digga was the illest in the game at one point... she was one of those featured ("Oh, here go the part") lyricists in the late '90s... cuttin' dudes heads off.
And i can tell you right now it was his first original verse on flipmode squad meets def squad that got me likin him Corrupt your minors Like new york cities finest lineups I'm lsd fund dust in yo sinus My flipmode niggas More like Afghanistan gorilla's But my first love ? And to me the greatest verse ever lifted was cap dons verse in winter warz wutang " I'm too ill i represent park hill See my face on a 20 $ bill Can't catch a nigga like Don dime a dozen even if I'm smoked out i can't be scoped out. Hibernated sound now we out like bears of born power born physically power speaking the truth in the song be da pro black teachin !!!
This just reminded me of how Busta was one of the only artists to REALLY give zero fucks about following trends. You gotta love how much he always kept it weird & strange on purpose! (Aka you could never guess what a Busta/Flipmode video would look like before actually seeing it)
Can you believe they used to play this song on the radio back in the day? GOLD! Today is the first day I realized they had a music video. Love this jam!
bringing back to my get up in early monday mornings for school days and flip on that tv! discreetly to bet rap city for my before the bus comes jams!!! ahhh, the good ole days
When i say as a kid i was crazy for busta rhymes my mother made sure every birthday she brought every single album he dropped and that she did till limewire came into play 🤣😂🤣 mind u this was when i was 3. Till. I was grown up 🤣🤣 N O S T A L G I A .!!!!
WHAAAAAAAAÀT KILLLLLLLLAAAAA BREAK DA BANK BRA FLIP OUUUUUUUUUUUT WHAT GO GO GO GO FLIP NO LIP FLIP THE SCRIP NO NO FIGHT EVERYTHING RIGHT FLIP BLESSEDUP 💯 NEEDED THIS NOWWWWWWWWW
There is a reason that Busta Rhymes was the only talent to come out of the FlipMode Squad. None of the alternatives had dope rhymes, plain and simple. Busta is still relevant, while the rest fell off the map. Understandable, sad, and life moves on.
Most overlooked and underrated rap group in HISTORY!! With only one album that was one of the GREATEST!!!
And they were creative
Bro they were sick! Do for self with Babycham and Spliff star 😮.
Sick album.
Which rap group had a better album?

True.😢😢😢😢
Wish they’d continued on. I STILL rock The Imperial in 2023. Loud af too. 🔊🔊🔊🔊
Back when they spent money on music videos. An I’d actually want to watch them
Yes
Exactly! Record companies used to actually give an artist a budget to make videos not like now.
They always did on this crew
and the tracks were hardcore rap...
Facts
My boy lord have mercy! You can never forget his voice! Another classic video
Put the “jun” away 😁 🔫
Yeah he was insane
Voice of the Ten commandments
3 years later. The truth.
He was disgusting.
What Lord have mercy did by way of cadence and voice alone is diabolical. But the squad understood the group assignment.
Lawd have mercy always been my favorite
And i can tell you right now it was his first original verse on flipmode squad meets def squad that got me likin him
Corrupt your minors
Like new york cities finest lineups
I'm lsd fund dust in yo sinus
My flipmode niggas
More like Afghanistan gorilla's
But my first love ? And to me the greatest verse ever lifted was cap dons verse in winter warz wutang
" I'm too ill i represent park hill
See my face on a 20 $ bill
Can't catch a nigga like Don dime a dozen even if I'm smoked out i can't be scoped out.
Hibernated sound now we out like bears of born power born physically power speaking the truth in the song be da pro black teachin !!!
LORD HAVE MERCY........This is a great hip hop album many bangers on this one.
Truly underrated with some ridiculously dope production on a majority of the album. Lord Have was so dope...
@@abrothernamedgeorge IS so dope
True. Love this album. Just enough of all the members...that seems hard to to with large groups. Wu does this well too.
@@keithmiddleton6907 still repping Lord Have I see, good to have you on board. #SHIELDSINTHEAIR
@@neillane30 he’s one of my lyrical heroes!! I tell him every time I see him!!
Busta Rhymes is a LEGEND. And to know he doesnt get enough recognition speaks volumes.
Legendary
yes it do!!!
@@marccadiz9321 FACTS ON FACTS 💯
enough recognition? u gotta be newbie. it's the mumble era. of course he aint gettin recognition.
@@jason-vv6kv That’s true but back in the 90s he was fire! 🔥
I know there's no video but that Flipmode Squad Meets Def Squad is a CASSIC
My fav LHM verse on that track.
YESSS
Lord have had me saying pardon me Duke for years
I still do...with the same voice! lol
@@ZebulonHedeqyah-f3j
😂
todays fan will never understand creative videos and lyrics to match,,,,,,,classic
Words cannot describe how sick this is
This just reminded me of how Busta was one of the only artists to REALLY give zero fucks about following trends. You gotta love how much he always kept it weird & strange on purpose! (Aka you could never guess what a Busta/Flipmode video would look like before actually seeing it)
That cop outfit in Gimme Some More 😆
He And missy, true ones!
Flipmode is the Squizad!!💯👊🏽
🔥🎤🔥
I feel like too often the world needs reminding that Flipmode is the squad.
Lord Have.... That voice.... LEGENDARY!
He was so great!!!
Voice of the Ten Commandments
You'll never ever find other performers like these again!!!! Today's music is not music.......... It's rubbish!!!!
most yes but certainly not all
Can you believe they used to play this song on the radio back in the day? GOLD! Today is the first day I realized they had a music video. Love this jam!
I always loved this beat and that Run for Cover joint they did. 🔥🔥
Well 20 years later I've found out that this track has a video, it's crazy seeing Busta thin with dreads again. Fuck man Lord Have killed it.
Am glad I grew up with this song on repeat 😂
Man I wish the original flipmode would have stayed together. This song still bangs
New album coming this summer quote from Blockbusta Busta
bringing back to my get up in early monday mornings for school days and flip on that tv! discreetly to bet rap city for my before the bus comes jams!!! ahhh, the good ole days
Who make better music videos than Busta Rhymes... I'll wait
Bryan Debatable between him & Missy Elliott.
Ludacris or redman!
Busta, Luda, Missy, and Em vids hit different back then.
The man's a genius!
Just say Hype Williams that will cover all of them
So you gone flip it on em.....? Yeah.. FLIPMODE... FLIPMODES THE GREATEST
“If I’m not going to be part of the greatest, I gotta be the greatest myself”
@@TheLevelsEdge Dom pom Dom podoom padoom doom...... 🥁 🎤
Gimme some more vid crazy
Lord Have Mercy was that dude!
OG FLIPMODE SQUAD#1
Oh lawd ha mercy
Ya crucifixion hurts me
A lyrical artist
Who paints his pictures in the darkness
❤
Still waiting on Lord Hav Mercy album!!!
And spliff too.
Reminds me of old school MTV... used to love it
The long version is always the best version of this song. It's the build up.
This video is so underrated
No it’s not everyone knew this was a banger then and now.
Afro-Latinos stand up 👆🏽
Superb o voce divina , Sunteti fantastici, minunati 🌹🌹🌹Salutari din Romania
That was so sneaky of Rah Diggah @ 4:16 😁 🤗 her alias (Dirty Harriet) comes to mind! 😊
Hilarious Bus A Living Legend

Flipmode Squad The Imperial 💯
One of my favourite busta songs... But good lawd... I don't see how that video connects to the vibe of that song.
There is a reason that Busta Rhymes was the only talent to come out of the FlipMode Squad. None of the alternatives had dope rhymes, plain and simple. Busta is still relevant, while the rest fell off the map. Understandable, sad, and life moves on.
the classic
almost 25 years ago. wtf
90's
No verse from Spliff and Rah diggah. Forgot they didn't spit on this track.
That’s why they made the ChaChaCha video to even the score.
Busta, Rampage and Lord Have did the first single and then Spliff, Digga and Baby Sham did the second one.
LORD HAVE!!!
Still pretty dang good
Nice!!!!💪💪💪🔥🔥
