- From 1995 Album: "Livin' Proof" Produced by DJ Premier...
Group Home is a hip hop duo, composed of members Lil' Dap and Melachi the Nutcracker. They came to prominence as members of the Gang Starr Foundation. Lil' Dap made his rhyming debut on Gang Starr's 1992 classic Daily Operation on the song "I'm the Man". Both members appeared on Gang Starr's critically acclaimed 1994 effort Hard to Earn, on the tracks "Speak Ya Clout" and "Words from the Nutcracker". In 1995, the group released its debut album, Livin' Proof. The album was very well received, mainly due to DJ Premier's advanced production work, described by Allmusic as "rhythmic masterpieces". A second album A Tear for the Ghetto was released in 1999, this time with only one track produced by DJ Premier.
Lyrics:
My life story strictly business never blew my chance
Moms kicked me out the house when I was flippin "I'm the Man"
Put the boys on the street, make them walk this beat
Teach them how to eat, and to seek for peace
Son I stamped this name Livin' Proof cause I mean what I say
Bring the fake to reality and make them pay
Yo these ghetto rhyme stories got em scared to death
I'm tryin to get the f*** out, see what the world's about
Check it nineteen-eighty-six is when I reached my peak
Take my brothers outta state and tried to make some ends meet
First destinate your sector then it's just like that
Makin moves with my brothers and there's no turnin back
We got thirty-six grams on the scale right now
Gettin ready with my brothers time to break the s*** down
I'm not about killin my people but you know how it go
Work with me not against me and we'll make mad dough
Wear my co-defendant out when I break down with rap
Hold me back and give me love and now I'm givin it back
A unique sound from the streets and it's just so sweet
My Livin' Proof life story, let me break it in piece
Yo I rock on the block with the real hip-hop
As you start to clock, and jock
Yo, I'm comin off with mad rage
Eighteen, and hittin the real stage
But don't worry bout me, cause I'm makin it
And if I can't have it, then I'm takin it
That's how it is, cause I'm livin trife
Where's my knife, take a chance witcha life
Rappers decapitate, and disintegrate
You I will mutilate, when I penetrate
Go for the one when I say raid
A hit man for hire and I want to get paid
Cause bullets are sprayed and anybody is laid
More money is made and that's the family trade
See I make moves and tell what's the truth
That's why I'm here, to be livin proof
I'm lost, must pay the cost to be the boss
With force, rather get my point across
I'm goin off on the mic insane, out of sight
When I take flight (like who kid?) Like Mike
And you see, I be rollin like a battlecat
And I'm ready to rip on my combat
Beef I'm not havin that yo, I pull my trigger back
And all you p*** niggaz know where my heart is at
I like to stay down low but yo I flip at times
Like when I'm kickin lines, or bustin out nines
It's like that, s*** I jumped off the roof
Pysch, cause I wouldn't be livin' proof
The moral of the story - what the f***'s goin on?
NYCeez won't see two thousand if these niggaz keep frontin
I used to hustle on the block, now I rock for papes
Watch out, the world turn, and I will come back
Relieven stress off my brain I got the la-la for that
Breakin down all subjects, and then all facts
Lettin lose everyday, but still, keepin it fat
Bust it niggaz keep on frontin in this game aight?
Scared to death ass rappers don't get no props
Scared to come to the ghetto talk about bustin shots
See I can walk around the ghetto stand in peace and at ease
Get my ghetto crowd open yo you know what I mean
Indeed, see what I see and then you know what I mean
Gettin ready for the future so don't f*** with me
My livin' proof life story niggaz I kill it with ease - Видеоклипы
Dj premier is literally a fucking legend
You been following so wussup? I'm so grateful he's putting his legendary, I mean HISTORIC stories out there for anyone to listen to. So fucking cool.
yup!
all these years later and these beats got near senior citizens jumping out of their seats lol.
nothing speaks more to his talent as taking these two rapping dummies and dropping one of the dopest albums of the nineties.
Gangstars dj.
One of the Best Hiphop Beats Ever.
Many of Primos are.
For Real
This The One
Yeah Preemo's beats are born in a fire storm!
EVER!!!
Back in a time when even the lesser known rappers was super nice. The 90’s is the best era for lyrics definitely.
Oh yeah
@@jaimejackson9503 This released in 1995
Nah they wasn't nice on the mic.. The beats was what made this
@@blaqdiemenz the beat is what makes these rappers music sell today. it definatly not off of lyrics.
Some of those beats was not liked by mainstream back in the days but its highly appreciated now.
DJ Premier made one of the coldest beats of all time.
Yessir!
I bought this album in 96. I'm 44 now and I'm still bumpin it..
.I'll never stop listening to east coast legends!
Born 95 White boy from Finland. Bumpin all 80's 90's hiphop.
It ages like fine wine literally I'm 35 but I grew up on this anything newer is garbage
I'm 41 and I got this album at I wanna say......I ended up getting the cd!!😂😂I was in my early teens tho
word up 💯
🙌
To think someone isn’t bobbin their head to this and giving it a thumbs down...
Not everyone is into rap. Just like I'm not into rock.
Must be real snitchnine or Lil pump fans
@@Zbychu93 or classical, or pop, or jazz, or metal thrash, the choices are limitless....
@@Zbychu93 then don't listen to it. Pretty simple, as you should understand....simple.
Must got shit in their ears.
Premo bodied this album beyond recognition
Props my equal glad I ain't the only one to recognize it yell
One of the best all round solid album productions
His best production work!
This may sound like blasphemy but I might have listened to this album more than any single Gangstarr album. MOP, EPMD, Black Moon, Mobb Deep and Group Home showed me how dope two MCs could be. Premiers beats on the Living Proof album are insane, Plus some appearances of GURU and Jeru The Damaja! Definetly one of the legendary albums of that Era.
Fam, don't get me started. Not a single song got skipped... Maybe the Guru feature, as it was very basic. Other than that , absolute classic. Had it on tape back in the days...
Straight underground!...
Premier’s beats never die!
Never. They continue to educate those who are curious enough. Fucking legend.
Premier is a beast on those boards.
Yeah Preemo's beats are the aftermath of a one megaton nuclear explosion!
Premier is the undisputed goat
🗽✌🎹🎧🎤
Word, he always brings the heat
Without Primo this song is average at best. But thats just me.
DJ Premier Is one of the best producer's of all time
✊🏾💥💥💥FACTS👑💯💪🏾
The Best
Easily the GOAT in my opinion.
He is for sure but Dilla is better
💯
Everything DJ Premier touches turns to gold
Agreed
Facts! 👊🏾
Diamond 💎 😁
Truth
You goddamn right.
That’s the type of jam you can put on a loop for hours and let everyone spit to it. Soon as it started I was lit.
Hell yeah hell yeah.
💯Fact
It has the effect of the first listen every time its real art it's timeless!!!
"Spitters Anthem "
Yessir!
90s hip hop is the best!!!!
Without a shadow of a doubt
That's why I invented it!
One of the greatest rap songs of all time
I agree with that i remember when it came out
This beat is so hood.
Group Home's entire album was dope as hell... 🔥🔥🔥
Better than primos own Gangstarr albums. He really snapped on this!!
So Dôpe it went tripple wood, if it wasn't for Premo Dope production the album would probably have went quadroople copper!!!!
@@nicksandz3209you’re going to hurt some feelings with that. Melachi the Nutcracker was terrible, though.
Classic East N.Y. shit Right here, Out of the GangStarr camp it's "Group Home" Yah Boi !!! Keith Rip Bro ...
All day everyday E.N.Y van siclen and Jamaica Ave
@@rubski-ds9yc”When Tha East Is In The House Oh MY GAWD; GAWD”
this one hits so hard to this day ... instant classic
Lil Dap 🔥
After the 90s era, there's really nothing else left to see.
Man makes me so sad I miss the 90's so much
I'd agree but I grew up with the 2005 era shit. After that I'd agree there is nothing left to see.
@@Ondude389 word!!!
Damn u aint heard damu the fudgemunk Vignettes 2017 then bro.. real hip hop alive and well
Dirty, raw, stright from the streets... this is real Hip-Hop.
One of the most underrated albums of all time
Wrong
Still one of the hardest beats ever🔥🔥🔥🔥
Yo, I used to chill with these dudes back in my hometown. Used to play some of their stuff on a radio show I did with my bro.
wonder whatever happened to them, man i miss the golden era of hip hop
@@terrenceabate1116 Yea I wonder too. Do they get regular jobs? Or stay in the music industry..
@@Vortex_one 9 to 5 jobs or the streets.....
@@terrenceabate1116 Lil Dap has been around here and there over the years but I can't say I've heard anything non-Group Home from Melachi.
Absolute Classic!!!! R.I.P. GURU & HEADQCOURTERZ!!!
Real Hip-Hop!!! This album has a huge influence for lot of people
The most iconic beat in hip hop.
Pure crack! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Preeeem
Ironically, Fat Joe once had a track called cook crack or something akin to that with this beat around 2004, heard it on a mixtape back then
Its crazy how many people come back to this everyday... this song is masterpiece!!
Timeless music
💪🏽
This joint is mandatory...

Les vraies reconnaissent les vraies
Water is wet.
Sky is blue.

One of the hardest beats ever produced 🫡💯
God can i please go back to this time and stay there. Before everything was corrupted.
WOOOOOOOORD!!
" Bring the fake to reality and " MAKE THEM PAY".... CLASSIC. Both of their album's was cold as hell. With Lil Dap, and Nutcracker vocals over D.J Premier's production they couldn't miss. Say " WORD".
That first verse was insane 😭🔥
😮😮😮
He got one of those voices that don't sound like nobody else...= FIRE !
the flow, the beat, the theme, classic of all time - the best!
DJ Premiere is the greatest hip hop producer of all time.
Hands down 🔥🔥🔥🔥
When the rap was a source of self healing 😎
Whoa! Now that's a BAR! :)
Yup..
That why we're here
there were still some beefs going on;
kool moe dee vs. big daddy kane.
roxanne vs. real roxanne.
but...no one got hurt!
Learnt a lot from hip hop
“Work with me not against me and we’ll make mad dough.” 🔥
💯💯💯
Classic Preemo beats, Boom bap never die...
I love listening to beats like this over and over and then writing some stuff.
Straight Brooklyn Sound!

Arguably one of the beat hiphop tracks ever created❤
This has to be in the top 10 of beats all-time. This one is a timeless classic. Group Home were so underrated
WHAT A CLASSIC…90’s HAD EVERYTHING LOL
Premier kills it. He crosses over. He gets heads boppin from the hood to suburbia. Best to ever do it.
One of the sickest beats of All time 🤘🤘🤘
I bump this everyday. Rock wit da real hip hop. Young ones back then even knew that you got to be bout letting mc's hear what you saying. If not you ain't saying Sh*t! 💎
That bass shook rooms & took you,embraced you and delivered you to hip-hop paradise.
one of the most underrated rap songs
Premo never misses, and this one is crazy 🔥🔥🔥 simple, but got that sinister bass and bounce 🤯
Living Proof is a classic hip hop record amazing production by DJ Premier.💣💣💯💯💥💥
The scratch of Inspectah deck is unmatched !!
Grabbed this 12 inch vinyl yesterday. Reminds me of middle school. The vendor was like "I don't know this tune." I'm like "bruh, how old are you?" Dude says he was born in 1998. Well that explained it 🤦🏾♀️ I encouraged young blood to look up the track, 'cause it's pure gold.
Maaaaaan nobody these days can even touch this beat.. CLASSIC!! I remember chillin at the schoolyard listening to this.
Still great, still bangin' this. One love from Turkey.
Back then when hip-hop was real
Work with me NOT agaisnt me and we*ll make mad dough!
Yes yes Lil Dap!
It's *we'll* ,no apostrophe needed.
Beat is still fire 🔥🔥. Never gets old.
So glad I was in highschool when real hiphop ruled!! Great times!!
Anyone after So Wassup? 2021 let's do it!
