[MAC:]
Thug of the family, who could I be?
M wit the A to the C that's me
Thug of the family, who could I be?

Ladies come around an they buggin
Make g's like if I was robbin
Player haters they are
Watching an they're plottin an they're watchin my scars
Watching an they're plottin an they're watchin my stops
Watching an they're plottin an they're watchin my crops
Never gonna stop

They look like they're about to go into the Big Brother house.
hahaha
Half of them have haha
Has Asher D
They look like they're about to go cottaging.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
This song caused an increase in mixed race kids called 'Harvey' and 'Romeo' in the UK.
+trca101 the best colour is coffee colour
+trca101 lmao
+themalloys Why do they always act black tho
StarMangledAstronaut to annoy you
Or, you know, acting black.
I’m watching this in 2023 and realising that quality and special effects this video was RIDICULOUSLY ahead of its time. The storm, clouds, helicopters, tornado etc. Whoever directed this video way back then is a genius
Yes bro we still hear this banger 💯 in December 2023 and on and on, it's a classic from the 2k era of the first 🇬🇧 grime. IMHO 💯✅💥💪🏽🎯
Ain’t that deep lool
Look at Harry Potter from 2001, it’s even better, but for a music clip this is actually cool.
Not really, it was very much of its time, there were other garage videos like this around the same time, and lots of American rap videos
the fact that each member got 21 seconds to rap and the song went over 5 minutes TELLS YOU they were deep deep.
best comment i ever seen on this vid was you had 21 seconds to bust one out over lisa mafia or you where onto deezer D :) lol
🤣@@zeetroyman
ABSOLUTELY SPOT ON THE GANTZ 87 👍
I didnt notice they all had 21 seconds
@@muza8710🤦🏾♂️
It's shameful how long it took me to realise that they each sing for 21 seconds
now i understand it
mario64325 I would +1 but you have exactly 21. Dont wanna spoil it. :P
mario64325 Bu they clearly say that they got 21 seconds
I know right!!
ive timed it they dont each talk for 20 1 sec thats bollocks
Polyphonic ringtoned this badboy on my nokia 3210. I bet that doesn't even make sense to half the people who watch this.
Nah I do haha. Man i remember those days, im assuming you're on about that infamous indestructrable nokia brick? Man i made some proper tunes back then on that little bugger.
Mightytoon1 monophonic you mean lol
Nah, polyphonic.
Haha yes all about snake and inputting polyphonics on that bad boy.
Mightytoon1 Na bro...3210 defo had monophonic ringtone....polyphonic came later on, that was the one that was like real instruments and when u first heard u was like "WTF...!!!"...proper futuristic after all those years on Nokia 5110, 3210, 3310...lol...look it up bro, 3210 was mono, but I catch ur drift...jokes old days...peace!!
If you are here still listening to this you are a G. Big up the born in the 80’s crew, 90s kids and 00’s garage heads.
You just described my whole life lol
Big up i was born in 1876
It doesnt get much better. What a time 🔥🔥🔥🔥🙌🙌🙌🙌
Wait i meant 1976 not 18
here still bangin
My friend from the UK came to Los Angeles with her homegirls and played this in my car super loud in Beverly Hills haha ever since I listen to this every now and then. Love this track
Love that
nah they ATE on this video. Wardrobe, set design, graphics, 21 second flows, everything came together so perfectly. THIS IS ART!
No mate black star. Bowie video is art
@@leolicursi3536 If you’re going by that pretentious read into things that aren’t there Bowie/Morrisey and them man is “real” art definition, then So Solid Crew are the greatest collective of musicians ever assembled in the U.K.
This track birthed an entire culture nationwide, kids up north were mc’ing in garages, kids down south were starting pirate radio stations, channel U spawned on the back of this and half the current U.K. music scene came from that.
The police and the government tried to shut them down and failed, whole set of them came on top of the pops, scared the middle class and turned their kids into roadmen wannabes.
Patois became ingrained into everyday language and tracksuits became uniform.
Name one David Bowie song that had a fraction of that impact.
No im not speaking about bowie but like hes shit at writing its called poetry.. With puns and stuff.... So solif crew best act 😁 not even on commercial grime
@@Disruptoor7 bowie space oddity.. Ashes to ashes. Gene genie.. Loads and he was one first to start glam
@@leolicursi3536 There’s more puns, word play and punchlines in any Krept and Konan freestyle than in Bowie’s entire catalogue.
I’m not saying David Bowie wasn’t a great musician, not my taste but clearly was a global icon, but this def ain’t the forum to be bringing that comparison to lol.
18 years later and ive only just realised that all their verses are 21 seconds long looooooool
Don't feel so bad ...
It took me a while that the tune got called 21 seconds cos they all got 21seconds on the mic .... and I'm 42
And even though I killed so many brain cells I'm sure I only worked it out in the last 3 years
Lol I've just learnt of you wow!!
U absolute panzy 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
Genius.
Even the chorus is 21 seconds long.
What tune. Dropped this at my son's 40th. You should of seen my 87 year old mum getting down. The people was jamming to this song. People of all ages was rocking. Classic timeless tune. Love it.
Came here to hear the brilliance of this track , still a masterpiece in 2022
Whenever im scrolling youtube, if I see this track, I play it. Never gets old.
Aint that the truth
Such a tune. I remember this coming out when I was still in school
@@SobrietyandSolace they are british wu tang clan
Its awful Lisa Mafia is off key, and the music sounds like those old 90s Xmas trees that lit up and played tunes with the batteries dying, in some.oarts it even sounds like someone is blowing a kazoo. There is zero baseline... It's soooooo bad 🤣😂🤣
This got to number 1 back when getting to number 1 mattered.
and so far ahead of anything coming out of the US. Only people who could compare was Wu Tang back in the day and Public Enemy before that
@@happyclappy1805 Child please... don't ever compare this with Wu or P.E
And I can point out 30 British acts dope than this.
@@72vince27 I'll compare it with whatever I see fit 72vince. You're entitled to your opinion but not entitled to censor mine.
@@happyclappy1805 You're whole perspective is whack
@@72vince27 And you aren entitled to make your point with insults.What are you -5 year old?Come on Man-turn it way down.
Everygirl in school thought they were Lisa Maffia- and waited for her part to come on, so they could sing it lol
genie121 😂😂😂😂 No lie
You went to a special school then?
Mate it’s spelled mafia
ツCracKed No its spelt Maffia
Yaas same here 🤣 lmaoo those days
This is the most 2000’s thing I’ve ever seen. Bangin’
I'm 61 and still listening, best video, brilliant
2x10+1... ROMEO DONE
Quick maths
Flawless line tbh. Double entendre too as his real name’s Romeo Dunne.
Actually it’s Romeo Dunn, as it’s his surname.
9+10
Conor Phillips YEEZY in da comments
My dad would be banging this when he picked me up from primary lmaooo I felt like a boss.
Happy Dayss!! :) (Y)
my dad was banging this then, and still banging this now :') garage never dies!
Great dad
Well this comment makes me feel old xD I remember this in year 9 haha
Adolf Hitler 1995 BMW 3 Series lol
This always comes up in the recommended list DONT LIE
If you’ve never heard this song before, you know nothing about Club Temple in London in the 90s to 2000s. I’m 44 living in Atlanta now but growing up in London listening to this on CD in the car was the business.
as a child the guy with the white contacts was scary af😂
true
True...
It was an effect not even contact lenses 😂😂
Lol, he still is, to me
+DMS its contact lenses
Best Coronavirus hand washing tune evs
That's a point.
Can't find the cover made for the covid 19 handwash
Gez 🤣🤣🤣 I’m dead
The extra second just to 'be safe bro' lol
Do a verse every time you wash your hands
For the love of God, will someone please give these gentlemen more time?
.....
22 seconds?
Romeo did say give me 29....😂😂😂😂
Anyone else checking this out for first time in years, with a greater appreciation after seeing the talented Ashley Walters in great show Top Boy? Some real educating being done through that intense show. Man's a clever guy with some awe inspiring moves.
Haha yeah
Whoever come up with the concept for this visual deserves a medal. It still looks relevant now.
it was the So Solid crew that came up with the concept. they all had an imput.
It looks utter wank
@@GARYRPOTTER 😂😂 no life Gary, stick to playing GTA.
@@GARYRPOTTER yes Gary haha 👍🏻😁
@@GARYRPOTTER ur mum
No lie this is clearly what 21 savage was listening to back in the day
Rah tid🤯🔥
Init
um t HAHAHAHAHA 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
No he didn't he was only like 9 or 10 when this came out
Tbh that’s probably why he called himself “21 Savage”
Romeo stole the song with that smoove intro LOL, even after 22 years that's still got to be one of the dopest/smoothest intros ever.
20+ years later and still banging
Undoubtedly a U.K. Classic. Not even questionable. This caused so much change and growth in ukg and beyond it should be remembered forever. Every kid from 5 up in U.K. Knew this song, mad considering the type of tune aswell.
Who else is here from Ashley’s interview on the Zezemillz show🙋🏾♀️
Loooool thought it was just me
Looool meeee
Nope here because im old and grew up listening to these and wanted to listen to some nostalgic tunes😂 #oldfart #gettingold #gotold 😢
Exactly
I'm here smoking a spliff listening to this remembering the old days me and my older bro use to love this song
Still bumping this 2024 🔥
Will be bumping in 2025
The song & video were way ahead of it's time. I think it's only now we realise that!
A tune that assisted BIG TIME in the birth of Grime.
dam straight
I no all the words to this rap. 21 seconds to go
How did they make this rap. Cool tho
Why would they do swarm words in it man.
I am watching it rite now.
Romeo had 21 seconds to flow, and wasted most of it asking for more seconds and talking about how he had 21 seconds to flow. Managed to cram in a quick nod to the ladies though...
Nicholas Stevenson: I always noticed that too!
Legend u are
😂😂😂
Dunno why but this comment made me laugh
Haha okay who had the best verse?
BRILLIANT!
The kids nowadays will never know what this song was like when it was first released 🔥
Im 15 and although i will never know the vibe since nobody listens to this anymore this is by far one of my favourite songs
best time to be alive. 2001.the real London, real grit, real music.Take me back
Can't believe it took me all this time to know they all rap for 21 seconds😂
taylor gear I was impressed with that.
+taylor gear And now you've told me. Didn't click at all! XD
No romeo got 29
ha ha lol
Test Channel haha
Fucking Banger. Most people who were young kids or teens and were into UK Garage music around the early 2000's remembers watching them perform at the MOBO awards in 2001. Ahh, what a year.
Trixie Cortezx I remember when it made it to mainstream (kissfm) I was over gassed lol
definately
yesssssss omg that was the best performance everrrrr still my best mobo awards to date
My mum was playing this song once, I was around 7 or 8 and I instantly loved it.
Remember them from Temple days in Streatham. Romeo was about 17yrs old when they started out.
Ms Dynamite was also there
Great contribution to black British music
Kids will know him as Dushane but I know him as Asher D 🔥
These guys was ahead of their time👍🏼
I guess we haven’t got to that time though.
@alihire still waiting 😂😂😂
All I can say is.... legendary. This song was legendary and paved the way for many artists from the hood. And showed it can be done!!
I swear kids will never know what real music is this is proper music
You parents and grandparents will have said exactly the same thing, welcome to getting old 😂
Amazing how if this came out today it wouldnt be out of place.. 21 years before its time
20 years later and the video/song is still a masterpiece. Still looks great
True👍🔥🔥🔥🔥💃
lol no it looks dated as fuck
😂😂😂
@@BenJahmin108GROW UP SERIOUSLY
Wouldn’t call it a masterpiece mate 😂😂
Who is watching Asher D in Top Boy in 2019?
T'Challa I am
T'Challa yes yes... fucking love that shit👍🏽
Top boy is quality mate
Me
😂😂He's a british Icon
if were being honest this might just be the greatest tune of all the tunes ?
🧢 you should never get the aux chord

Yup
Shaq ain't got shit on him 😂
Word 😂😂
@@bkiss3570 quick facts!
Hadn't heard this song in 21 years and all of a sudden it popped into my head, seems appropriate. I remember thinking this video was so awesome when I was a kid and it still looks pretty damn cool all these years later.
This has always been a great and unique track. I'm from the generation before in terms of dance music, but always thought we were seeing a new genre here and then there was nothing else like it again. Still a great track and one I listen to alot.
Who's listening to this in 2021!!! So many memories my tune back in school days!!!!
nope.
If u look at my summer or garage playlist theres so many old tunes
man, a friend of mine made me listen to this song the same year it came out.... today it came back into my mind,,, but i dint remember who they were, the song name or the singers name... after an intense research here i am,..,..;) so happy! good memories
wish I could go back to that time
It's 2019 and this vids just popped up on my RUclips. Brings back memories, good times
The first UK Hip-Hop Number one single in UK 🔥 Dushane verse was serious 🔥

I was today years old After finishing watching Topboy, that It´s Dushane rapping in this song. This is Mad.
When you come on RUclips looking to cringe at what you used to listen to in year 7 but find it's actually better than the majority of rap music released in the last decade.
🔥🔥🔥🔥
Hell yes
I’ve been watching Harvey on James English podcast and just had to watch this classic again!!! TUNE!!!!!!!!

2024 this was way ahead of its time
Yass I remember when my girlfriend bought me this album for my birthday and I think that was the only reason I married her, thanks collectively to being a soundtrack to my journey to be a G⁰
3:43 when that bass hits! unquestionable classic.
I didn't think this song was all that when I was a teenager -- but at 35 I am suddenly bopping to it.
I’ll never forget when so solid crew came to my secondary school In Brighton, and oxide and neutrino. Must have been 2001 🤷🏻♀️ something like that. But was brilliant, been a fan since.. I’m 36 now 😂😂
Lisa Maffia looks fricking incredible in this video
Whos here after listening to the Lisa Maffia interview with James English. Cuz after listening to that I needed a blast from the past, the 21 seconds type.........
Me too , she’s such a positive person
She's still v hot.
@@jesusjohnny8286 hell yeah 😎 👌
This is so timeless and Romeo’s verse is so iconic
ROMEO DONE
I always thought his was the worst one, ‘2 multiplied by 10, plus 1’ 😂😂😂😂
Goes on about needing more time but doesn’t actually have any content lol
@@wakeyskate right lol, his verse is dead. he wastes time to go 'mmm' and hump the air lol ffs

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Dushane killin it
That girl is where tulisa got her whole personality from 😂 I’m actually shocked 😂 never seen this before but it makes sense now
Hello friends. The song title alludes to the approximate 21 seconds that each of the band members is given to perform their rap. 21 seconds is arrived at as the song's tempo is approximately 140BPM and each rapper has 12 bars of 4 beats (48 beats at 140BPM, when worked out to the nearest integer, rounds to 21 seconds).
I though 21 seconds was the length of their court cases
+Persistent Fury that doesn't even make sense
+Emma Kim of course it didn't. I was drunk when I wrote it. hahahahaha
Persistent Fury You've made it on to Reddit with that shit excuse of a comment, well done.
+Anonymous you're welcome
This was the JAM when I vacationed in Croydon in Summer '01 😁
