Amen to that. I remember when this first came out. It was constantly on loop. The beat is ridiculous and Bilal, Dre and Jadakiss are just filthy on this track.
The industry knows this though. He did 4 songs on to pimp a butterfly. Kendrick called him, So he’s not underrated as for as the industry goes. As far as fans go, yea… they don’t know him like they should.
Man this song brings me to tears… it was one of my motivational song when I was struggling … today I accomplished so much my kid is 30 doing well I become a doctor this song reminded me of how far I’ve come and not take the struggles & blessings for granted ✊🏽🙏🏽
im here for it this was a great era i wish i knew the era we were living in was going to change i would have lived in it more with passion damn i need this era back asap
I’m pretty sure Dre had the first producer tag ever with this. I seem to remember maybe 1 more with the, “this is another Dr Dre production” tag. I used to love that, but he didn’t do it long. Easily one of my all time favorite beats over 20 years later. And don’t sleep on Dre’s verse. Straight fire.
I was there when this video was shot in north philly summer of 2002. Remember seeing Kiss on the back street on Huntingdon waiting for his shoot. NP all day Cassidy also shot Hustler video same blocks and GTown ave and Floetry on Gtown and Lehigh. All luv back then.
Ive been searching for this song and artist for years and I finally found it! Good looking out! Im feeling this, Bilal so Underated and the lyrics are deep man. The kind of shit you don’t hear anymore. This is how music used to be. Thanx for posting this man!
Fucking awesome Music Bilal really knows how to sing was listening to this back in 02 still listening in 2012 All the props to this amazing artist recognize
Bilal is a classically trained vocalist who is outrageously underrated. First Born Second is a masterpiece

Factz

Listening to this on a rainy day in Tangier,Morocco with a nice spliff & mint tea.

Dr Dre is a god
That time when you had to watch MTV for a couple hours to hear your favorite songs
Or being up real late while MTV is on an all fly shit is coming on back to back
Man this song brings me to tears… it was one of my motivational song when I was struggling … today I accomplished so much my kid is 30 doing well I become a doctor this song reminded me of how far I’ve come and not take the struggles & blessings for granted ✊🏽🙏🏽
Good😊.
Amen
How old are you ?
GOD IS GREAT ! 🙏🏽
@@musahmusah2745 just made 48 last month
This is clearly Bilal's best song. His voice and that fucking beat is ridiculous. And Jadakiss and Dre verses are the damn icing on the cake
Gillatine King Yep !! Bilal can sing. I have slept on him. I got to get more music from him.
Accurate!
Man. It don't make no sense bro🔥💯

One of the greatest singers of all time ! Him Ralph sadiq! Deangelo! And maxwell ! True Kings !
I’m not going to put Ralph in there e it h with Bilal and them
Don't forget Stokley
I forgot about this song until I listening to one of Aaliyah's last radio interviews and she was singing it. Love it!
Oh really I want to find that interview
Lateshia Childs link please
@@lateshiachilds3640 I'm trying to remember which one it was. Lol I forgot all about this comment. Try the Angie Martinez interview she did in 2001.
She can’t hit those notes though…no disrespect..
@@Ishbikes She wasn't singing the song full-out only a little piece of it.
Legendary song, it's 2024 and it's still on my list.
Question, what happened to Bilal?
“This is another Dr. Dre production!”
I felt that.
My boy bilal with the pimpish-gansta-strut that's so dope.

Don't sleep on Bilal Fast Lane....
@jewelz7038/// AMINATA (⚽️ 🏟 PSG) DIALLO is that U!!!😮
Dre put his whole foot in this one. A whack Jade verse does not exist 🔥. Bilal ate, his voice and swag is off the charts
Dre a fool for this beat
