+Michael Howard can't agree more hip hop has sold out too many artist are to quick to follow the same can be said for all platforms of music but when you look in to the music industry you can see how shady it is
Remember when Erick used to own rim shop on Peachtree in Atlanta? He was openly the first New Yorker who contributed Atlanta and fine touch the urban culture
Yo they started the whole trend with you gotsta chill. In fact the whole time very few dared to drop a zapp sample track unless they was tight with EPMD
When I was a kid Eric's beats had what they called Underground bass.It was what made ur ride obnoxiously vibrate rhythmically WITHOUT being OBNOXIOUS!!!!!
Erick Sermon is the epitome of staying power in entertainment. My man can be 65 years old dropping low key off beat style on his own beats and it'll be slamming. Not a word negative can be said about this man and his career. Rap God 100%
His solo project confirmed his musical genius behind the EPMD/Redman projects. Parrish was more in tune to the business..but Erick figured it out..he was unstoppable. Golden Era Hip Hop
Man how bout Insomnia? So many dope tracks on there of artists that just went nowhere and had almost if not no other tracks. I still bunk that record at least once a month.
Erick Sermon is one of my all time favorite rappers and producers. My initial rap-style was based on Erick Sermon's, Special Ed's and Kurupt's rap styles. They all basically taught me how to rap.
Prophetic...accurately describing or predicting what will happen in the future."his warnings proved prophetic." Ol'Hip-hop...Smh...It's a shame what happened to her! 😢
Like all old school hip-hop rap music old school hip-hop mix music old school hip-hop jam music old school hip-hop 90s music old school hip-hop Erick sermon-stay real
Even though I was a Super Nintendo guy (and still am, tbh), but you can’t go wrong with Erick Sermon playing Holyfield on that Sega Genesis (which I also have - the OG and the Mini)! More importantly, that song is an absolute classic
I wake up to 🍵 ☕️ all that Thank you ❤ for this Killing it with these lyrics It stuck with me My point is don't leave Stay EPMD 💪🏿 Def Squad in the building 😮🎉❤🫵🏿👊🏿👏🏿✌🏿🙏🏿
You can tell this was a point back in hip-hop when everything was about being hard. Redman frowns all through this video (1993). 2021, you can't get the guy to stop grinning. DEF SQUAD FOR LIFE!
Love him💖💖💖 the shower scene is when you know Eric Sermon is for real he's a true genius of the rap game, especially when he can give props to his forefathers 💯
Yesssss! Sirrrrrr! Keep the same beat and bring on the Def Squad for a "Stay Real Extended Version" featuring Erick Sermon, Redman, Keith Murray, and Jamal. This needs to happen with that Hip Hop Funk!
Hip Hop Classic... Yoooo, My Homie worked right next door to the rim shop at Hosea Williams medical supply company, and we kicked it with all the MC's who fell through on the low cause I was movin dem trees at the time... Fa real Peace to Diamond D, Dallas Austin, Redman, Illegal, and odor course E DOUBLE... What up Reese? Hahahaaaaa
Ah, 1993. See, this is indeed my favorite year for music through and through. That beat started playin' in my head so I just had to come and check on this gem. Haven't heard it in a minute.
***** To each his own I guess. I mean this album wasn't necessarily bad, but it just lacked the consistency of EPMD's first four albums. The first half was definitely banging, but it started to slow down by the second half. Overall, the album was decent, but it could've and should've been better.
"Say Say ...Say What?" I've always loved that hook on this track. Man..back when everyone was bumping albums like this from Def Squad coming down the street when it dropped. Peace a G.O.A.T. producer E Double.
Eric sermon deserves to be mentioned as one of the best hip hop producers
Fo´ sure!
Erick Sermon is one of the first emcees to put Atlanta on the Hip-Hop map. It was big news when he moved down south
1993 is one of the best years in hip hop
yeah till 1995
Geeez Nuutz93 🔥🔥🔥
92.93.94.95.96!
93 'til infinity
Geeez Nuutz93 yes indeed
Back when rappers stood for something。This game now has no rules
sweet n simple I agree
You got that right, hip hop at its finest!

90's golden era hip hop.
It’s better now. We got NBA Youngboy, Drake, Pooh Shiesty, Rod Rich, Lil Uzi Vert and Kodak Black. Those the top 6 rappers alive.
@@BlackFaithProduction you mean Conway, RJ Payne, Rome Streetz, Benny The Butcher, Boldy James, and Stove God Cooks
@@ricsmith5730 No I mean YNW Melly, Trippie Redd, Soulja Boy, Lil TJay, 6ixNine and Quavo
1989-1994 was the golden era for hip hop. In my opinion...
When hip hop was pure. Real
Loving the Zapp samples throughout the EPMD and Erick Sermon era. RIP Roger Troutman.
Yo they started the whole trend with you gotsta chill. In fact the whole time very few dared to drop a zapp sample track unless they was tight with EPMD
Now tihis is what you call hip hop
WHEN YOU MENTION GREAT PRODUCERS ALOT OF PEOPLE MENTION DR.DRE AND DJ QUIK.....BUT YOU CANT FORGET ERICK SERMON
Knoxxgrim You absolutely right. Eric Sermon had the dope production. 1994 is the best year in hip-hop ever.
1994 to 1996 yup east and west coast was on top
93-95 was the best
Yes it was
Erick Sermon goes back to 1988
Sick album for 93. Nothing but banging beats. Every track is superb
Bayron whats the name of the album?

Just like E said "Rap could be gone with the wind" and it is.
Erick Sermon had moved to Atlanta and had his rim shop in downtown. Dope !!!!

PMD had some bangers too tho...not as many but he def knew a lil bit behind the boards himself
Keith Murray too

Big facts 💯 💯💯💯💯💯💯
Erick Sermon is one of my all time favorite rappers and producers. My initial rap-style was based on Erick Sermon's, Special Ed's and Kurupt's rap styles. They all basically taught me how to rap.
Underrated, he'll always be one of the pioneers of rap in my eyes.

They are also in my top list, with Prodigy, Buckshot, Masta Ace, Starang Wondah, Mic Geronimo, Fredo Starr... Golden Age.
Dope real black music.
Any color brotha, this transcends all those boundaries, this is too good.
@@ericbravo1124nah you gotta respect where the music came from
This shit is life.
Much respect to the Green Eyed Bandit. The Redman cameo was/is everything
"Peace to Redman, the rap funkadelic/the only emcee that compare to Erick, because I'm real....."
This guy raps like his parents jerked him.
This is my shit, not even a question, my generation always kept it real.
I’m saying.. it’s 2024 and we still at your front 😂:::. Stay real!!!!
♠️💯💪🏿🎙️✔️

Erick Sermon, he’s among the 5 most gifted Hip hop actors. And he’s even better as he gets older. Much much respect on this gentleman.
yo this was Erick Sermons actual detail and rim shop in Atlanta in 93 that he shot this video in.
Mr. World Free-Man Yes it was. I grew up in Atlanta but was in the military at the time and never had a chance to go to that shop.
Thanks for that. I was today days old when I found that out. Loved the video as a kid

I wished Eric Sermon would produce a Brother J album
from X-clan. His Funk beats is perfect for Brother J.
Erick Sermon is EASILY the MOST underated Producer in Hip-Hop
Hip Hop Classic...

High five if you're born in or around 1979 and witness of a great genre who's dead now
Preach
I can say I got to witness the whole era..
I was born 86 so I got to witness the 90’s
You suppose to be smiling when a dope rap track is playing. 😊
This joint is so Relevant in the 2021!💯💪🏾🙏🏾 This HipHop Chere! 🔥🔥💯
He got with Dallas Austin back then and the flow of his beats got better. Mix between his NYC and Dallas's early 90s atl sound
Man that evander holifield game just brought back memories
This that real hip hop kid!!
25 years later and this shit STILL knocks! #EDouble
2020... OLDSCHOOL 4LIFE!!! ✊🏾✊🏾✊🏾...☝🏾🕋☝🏾
This whole album is dope, but Stay Real set off 1993 for me. The beat is hard af and one of Erick’s best flows to go with it.
How could 58 people "Hate" this!?
This song is sick. I used to blast this song on the radio at my uncle's house. It's a shame the rest of the album was a disappointment though.
***** To each his own I guess. I mean this album wasn't necessarily bad, but it just lacked the consistency of EPMD's first four albums. The first half was definitely banging, but it started to slow down by the second half. Overall, the album was decent, but it could've and should've been better.
This was my jam back in the day! I had such a crush on Erik Sermon. Classic.
CurvyAries why u can’t have a crush on me
Check is out on rap on RUclips check is out on 3rd bass check is out on rap music 90s 80s 1990 1991 1992 1993 1994 we like all rap music😀🎶👍
"Say Say ...Say What?" I've always loved that hook on this track. Man..back when everyone was bumping albums like this from Def Squad coming down the street when it dropped. Peace a G.O.A.T. producer E Double.
