Rhyme Scheme: the ordered pattern of rhymes at the ends of the lines of a poem or verse. I'll capitalise the rhymes for you in this example. ( Taken off biggie's verse on Notorious thugs btw) Eg: " High off weed and LOTS of GIN/ " Too much smoke need OX-y-GEN/" " Suddenly got them benja-MINS/"
Fun Fact.... us old heads (40+) never looked at it as “rhyme schemes” or “patterns” so... yea pardon our ignorance... but on some real shit.. you’re right... Pharoahe Monch is where Eminem got his flow from... or should I say Pharoahe and BDK are who inspired him.
naw man i came here for def, he did great. but he needed one of his legendary status verses to match this shit. until today ive NEVER skipped over def, and i just committed the sin a good 10 times so far
It's amazing. I can listen to this song after not hearing it for 10 years and still remember most of the lyrics, but I can't remember what I had for breakfast yesterday lol.
Please direct me to those other songs, he's good from all the commonly described best songs/versus, but nothing made me 20 times replay, nothing made me even replay in all the hits. Prisoners of war was kinda close, that shoulda had Rakim on it tho haha. For real. More versus like this PLEASE
@@Matty80822 Pharoahe's second verse on Times2 (from his album PTSD) is one of the best verses I've ever heard from a rapper. Who else thinks of stuttering through a verse in order to portray PTSD and still has it work lyrically?

Who are the last rappers that went mainstream with actual GOOD hiphop? I'd say ILL Bill, MosDef, KRS1 Cypress, Meth/Red, Pharoahe, Talib Kwali, Big Pun, Nas, Busta Rhymes, Eminem, Xzibit, Kendrick...and?
i'll take out kendrick cause he is commercial no doubt about it and put Split prophets, Res one, The four owls and golden age rappers like krs one,rakim,big daddy kane, kool g rap... Look European hip hop stage mate they really rocks well they are way better then American hip hop stage these years. Respect.
Put it in perspective like, a great meal consisting out of the basic foods for the beat and the verses by Mos and Monch, and a certain piece of seasoning is Nate.
Who's still listening to this in 2020? Shout out to YOU hiphop head!
I still have the CD hhh thanks bro
Listening from REunion Island G
And 21? LOL
2021
2021 ;)
King of the hook, Nate Dogg RIP
Amen to that man.
What is the meaning king of the hook? Meaning what?
no one sang a chorus to a song in hip-hop like Nate@@syafiqahaqilah7104
How Pharoah comes in before the hook ends is soooooo dope
i thought the same, dude eats bars for breakfast hahahahah
Haha fuck it's so on point
YUSSS 🙌🏽
Very contagious.....
Classics don't die, they BECOME LEGENDS! RIP Nate Dogg 🙏
Pharoahe has got to have one of the most impressive rhyme schemes I've ever heard.
What do you mean by rhyme schemes?
Rhyme Scheme: the ordered pattern of rhymes at the ends of the lines of a poem or verse.
I'll capitalise the rhymes for you in this example. ( Taken off biggie's verse on Notorious thugs btw)
Eg: " High off weed and LOTS of GIN/

" Suddenly got them benja-MINS/"

@@thainfamous idk id just call it cadence
Henny Lopez 💯
The art of the "hook" in hip hop died with Nate.
Will never be another one...
PhantomZO9 we got max b
PhantomZO9 agreed
I would say Quavo from the migos but ik yall don't fuck with him
YRN Swazyy Facts
I miss Nate Dogg fo real
R.I.P. Nate dogg. He died way too early.
206Outlaw Boss I wish Nate Dogg would've made every rap hook ever. The hook GOAT RIP

@@tha1man744 for real I prefer his it was smoother
Who else bumping this 2023?
Lay low too!
Pharoah's verse is absolutely nuts!! insane flow and consistency
mos def murdered this joint
naaaaah, pharoahe rip them mothafuckas off
Paweł Statuch u chopped
Mos def, nice lyrics, Pharoahe, sick flow, but lets be real Nate murdered it.
Giovanni Beek yea thats true also :) best hooks ever
naw man i came here for def, he did great. but he needed one of his legendary status verses to match this shit. until today ive NEVER skipped over def, and i just committed the sin a good 10 times so far
nate dogg nothin beats that voice. rip this month was his passing month
This fire af. Pharoahe monch got wordplay for days....... Mos Def killed it as always.
They all killed it
There will be never a voice that is like nate dogg's.
It's amazing. I can listen to this song after not hearing it for 10 years and still remember most of the lyrics, but I can't remember what I had for breakfast yesterday lol.
That’s because you’ve probably heard this song hundreds of times
Eagle Winnings u don’t get the Point..
even still the same
Back when hip hop was real
Listening to this in 2023❤
One of the illest songs in terms of lyricism. An absolute masterclass.
This one the most flawless hiphop song of all time ...just amazing !!!!!!
Agreed
" i'm intellectual ! pass more essays than motorcade police parades through east L.A. more beef than Deli's" so clever thats my favorite line 😁
My favorite is actually the very next line: “thus what I vent is just, what you lust to vent is irrele-“
this is og music porn
i can't stop replaying monch's verse hahaha
ran out of tissues
The world was a much better place when Nate Dogg was in it. Great voice that can never be imitated.
2021 , still going strong , RIP nate
Even Monch agreed Mos's verse was crazy. I think this is one of Mos's finest works.
Vegeta Unpopular opinion, but I think I like Mos's verse a bit more than Pharoahe's. Just a little more cohesive and quotable to me.
They don't make hip hop like that no more
@Crow Sword stfu reply to a song form like 3 years ago. 6ix9ine fan.
My 2 fav boyz,together.?.Nate and Mos...Have mercy.
aaaaaaaghhh FUCK YEAH this track is one of my favorites..they ALL freaking KILLED IT
Merijn van keulen honestly I feel the first is good, the second verse go HARD AS BALLS , the third is ok
what third verse
2050 STILL DOPE AF
Lol
You have a ways to go youngin.
An era where things and people actually made some sense.... Damn I miss those days😭😭😭😭
Same hip hop now is completely dead and gone
Pharoahe Monch is GOD'S GIFT TO VOCABULARY!!!
Listening in 2021 anyone? Love everything about this tune. RIP Nate Dogg
Is Pharaoe like this on a regular basis? God damn!
YUP
since his days in organized konfusion
Please direct me to those other songs, he's good from all the commonly described best songs/versus, but nothing made me 20 times replay, nothing made me even replay in all the hits. Prisoners of war was kinda close, that shoulda had Rakim on it tho haha. For real. More versus like this PLEASE
Yes lol
@@Matty80822 Pharoahe's second verse on Times2 (from his album PTSD) is one of the best verses I've ever heard from a rapper.

still hott 2017 will get play time!!
Imagine if mos def was a part of wu tang holy fuck
Man im still fucking with these classics, 43 years old this year. Coronavirus acting up and making our lives a mess but good hip hop keeps me sane!!!!

From Brooklyn 2 Long Beach
To South Central
@@cicstommy to 313 Detroit
Who still listening this mastaclass in 2024 ? Mos Def verse still be criminal !
Yeah.
One for the treble, two for the bass
Welcome to the great incredible paper chase
Keep your boots laced if you want to keep pace
Oh No
Niggas ain't scared to hustle
It's been seven days, the same clothes
Ask them originals cause they know
Mos Def, Nate Dogg, and Pharoahe
Step away from the mic they too cold
The funk might fracture your nose
Say my name, say my name
Observe how I stake my claim, I independently lay it down
And played my game, my own two raise my flame
Cause dick ridin ain't my thang
I earned what they said I wouldn't
I got it the way they said I couldn't
But now I'm gettin it and they whole grill is crooked
Mad cause I'm gettin caked out from my bookings
When y'all was askin permission I just stepped up and took it
What!? The kid's better buy my rookie card now
Cause after this year the price ain't comin down
And if you got a joint bubblin then get money now
Cause in a minute, there's gonna be some real trouble comin out
Just a warnin, as usual some cats wont heed it
The hard headed always gotta feel it to believe it
It's a shame the jealous gaze is too short to see it
But when they face hit the cement, they nod in agreement
We could play nice and decent, or dirty like the 7-1 Precinct
Call it a day or make it a long evenin
You keep on schemin, man give me some more reason
To have the women in your mama's church screamin "Lord Jesus!"
Harder than y'all cause I'm smarter than y'all
I know that deep down it's got to be bothering y'all
Pay attention, watch fly gon' get larger than y'all
Put your pride on the rocks, make you swallow it all
The mathematic problem for y'all, it just get harder to solve
Every day that the saga evolve
The do or die stay rumblin and bumblin hard
And when we move, we ain't got no discussion at all
East coast on your neck and you ain't shruggin it off
Try to bullyfoot and end up stumblin off
I'm Daddy Brooklyn, y'all niggaz are the sons of New York
Gettin spanked when there's too much trouble to talk
Respect mine
Oh No
Look at who they let in the back door
From Long Beach to Brooklyn they know
We rock from the East to West coast
Queens salute to Pharoahe (you know)
Step away from the mic they too cold
The funk might fracture your nose
Very contagious raps should be trapped in cages
Through stages of wackness, Pharoahe's raps are blazin
And it amazes - me how you claim thug
But go two-ways without SkyTel pagers
I'm intellectual, pass more essays/ese's
Than motorcade police parades through East L.A.
More beef then deli's, thus what I vent is just
What you lust to vent is irrele'
Huh, hallelujah, Pharoahe Monch'll do ya
Maintain the same frame of mind - screw ya!
Get the picture, sit ya, seat ya, preacher with scriptures
I'm equipped to rip ya, reach ya
Pharoahe and Mos verbalize most
Coast to coast, we boast to be the most explosive here
Ferocious, the lyrical prognosis
The dosage is leavin you mentally unfocused here
MC's just - come on 'round
You're the next contestants on "Catch-A-Beat-Down"
Don't be hesitant, sound cracks the sediment
It's evident we medicine for your whole town
Sky's the limit, game's infinite when I'm in it
All windows is tinted, how you seein me when I'm in it?
Rap, we got it on lock man, stop that
Put that mic back down, boy, drop that
Pharoahe's flows blows shows like afros
We hate y'all though, that's why Nate Dogg goes:
Oh No
Niggas ain't scared to hustle
It's been seven days, the same clothes
Ask them originals cause they know
Mos Def, Nate Dogg, and Pharoahe
Step away from the mic they too cold
The funk might fracture your nose
Oh No
Niggas ain't scared to hustle
It's been seven days, the same clothes
Ask them originals cause they know
Mos Def, Nate Dogg, and Pharoahe
Step away from the mic they too cold
The funk might fracture your nose
Oh No
Look at who they let in the back door
From Long Beach to Brooklyn they know
We rock from the East to West coast
Queens salute to Pharoahe (you know)
Step away from the mic they too cold
The funk might fracture your nose
Put that mic down boy drop that!!!!
SO DOPE........
+Terri Grice (“TAZZ”) Yeah it is ! ;)
Been a while but This shit is still fire !!! 2 great artist in there prime Nate dogg and Pharoahe was way ahead of his time he's got it !!!
Who are the last rappers that went mainstream with actual GOOD hiphop?
I'd say ILL Bill, MosDef, KRS1 Cypress, Meth/Red, Pharoahe, Talib Kwali, Big Pun, Nas, Busta Rhymes, Eminem, Xzibit, Kendrick...and?
i'll take out kendrick cause he is commercial no doubt about it and put Split prophets, Res one, The four owls and golden age rappers like krs one,rakim,big daddy kane, kool g rap... Look European hip hop stage mate they really rocks well they are way better then American hip hop stage these years. Respect.
