I'm sitting here tripping. Seriously; I named my daughter after this song. 89. She's having her first child. She asked me yesterday about names. Funny how life goes about music! Stay up people.
Ice T and NWA dug the grave for conscious rap. Cube, Dre, Snoop, MC Eight, Spice 1, threw the coffin inside. Bad Boy nailed the coffin shut and the rise of Southern Rap, filled it up with dirt.
This is why Hiphop is so powerful. We were 11 year old white , black, Asian, Latin kids in New York watching these videos and listening to messages like this and learning about different people and respecting them. Not being scared of everyone. I mean..There was allot of BS in videos back then too, don’t get me wrong. But at least it was balanced out with song like this we’d hear on the radio. ( although we did have to stay up till 12 or 1 am for the Hiphop shows to come on 🤨 )But Ehh it was part of the love!
The amount of quality music this brother has put out is mind blowing. Thank goodness for RUclips and Pandora. What is being peddled these days as hip hop or rap is disappointing and disgusting.
Plus I love that wise intelligent always had that “ dancehall reggae style” added in brought some good flavor to the song that why a lot of Caribbean people rock to it too
Shakiyla is not Shakira.....Shakiyla is female for Shakeel or Shaquille (like O'neal)....its Arabic for "beautiful one, or the one with the beautiful face".
Who still watching / listening to this classic? ✋🏽
right here
Congrats to Wise Intelligent. He’s been married to his Shakiyla/Wife for 30 years, friends.
That's the DOPEST comment I've seen today!!
Lucky me celebrated 10yrs just the other day with my Queen
Blessed

I love the reggae vibe in Wise's delivery.
Real instruments and positive lyrics uplifting the BLACK QUEEN.........LOVE IT...I......LOVE IT
Real samples at least - from Maynard Ferguson's "L-Dopa." Definitely check that tune out as well.
Love this song! PRT was way ahead of their time.
Not really people just slow , that was actually going on.
People have regressed in many ways by design

I love the divine intelligence of this group.
Man this song is my jam! May sound weird, but I like bumping this on days when there's an overcast with rain in the forecast.
Try playing "My Way" by Nas on one of those days and no it doesnt sound weird
Tracy Tartt 😆 Thanks, I’ll definitely do that!
A Mac I feel that!
Eerie Indiana Or San Antonio, where I’m visiting right now 👍🏾
David Botsford Word! 👊🏾
Lol!! I remember that song AND video! The birth of hip hop @ it’s finest.😌🎶👍🏾
The song proves Michael Jackson was a melodic genius. The hook is so infectious no matter who sings it or the words they use. The melody is timeless.
I bought this album when it came out & I wore it out. Album is still fire in 2022
