THE LIVIN LEGEND, GAVE UP PROPS TO PRINCE, ANOTHER GREAT LEGEND OF ALL TIMES (REST IN GLORY). ONE OF THE BEST INTERVIEWS IVE SEEN DONE RESPECTFULLY AND SHOWED THE WISDOM OF KANE!
I cannot say it enough. There is nothing wrong being a well spoken hip hop artist. We owe it to the culture to emulate our forefathers. The music can evolve but we have to remain as educated as possible. Kane has always been a mentor. From fashion to rhyming to self confidence. To be a hip hop icon because of sales is one thing, but to be an icon with pride in what you accomplish as a humble person is priceless. Long Live the Kane. And I want that jacket.
You can have the jacket, I want the hat!! Lol...speaking well was seemingly frowned upon in Hip Hop because it meant you weren't "street" enough...salute to Kane and his well spoken peers for keeping it really real...Long Live the Kane!!
I thought Kane's Get Into It was incredible. That was the first song I heard from him. The A-Side to Something Funky & Rhymin' With Biz. His rap style on that song was ridiculous.
If Taste of Chocolate was the debut album they'd be no issues but the change was night & day from the first 2 albums. Especially the 1st one. Love Mr Pitiful btw
Kane you are loved brother. This interview is well structured.Its easy to ask general questions A true interviewer must ask the highly challenging questions and you have done an excellent job.
*Eastside Low Bottoms sh*t !* _Tappin' in from South Central LA_ Salute to the Kane ✊🏾 I grew up around the time when Run DMC was beginning to blow up. Back in the early 80's ('83 on up) there were many count down music video shows. I'd sit thru all of the androgynous pop videos hoping a Hip Hop video would show. I was 10 or so when 1580 KDAY, the first all Hip Hop radio station was born here in LA so this music was a heavy influence on my generation. Big Daddy Kane was my first 'favorite artist'. Raw came out and was hard ! But what did it for me was Ain't No Half Steppin'. To this day is still one of my favorite songs. And back then, his "foe" in the video looked almost exactly like a friend of mine named Domino (RIP). We used to tease him about it all the time ! I remember the first time I heard Get Into It. I was at a salon getting a Jheri Curl 😂 They had a little juke box and it came on. I didn't know what it was and it had been yearrrrs since I'd heard it again. I remember walking to a local supermarket which contained a small record store to get Long Live The Kane on cassette tape. I wore that b*tch OUT ! 😂 That second album is still a banger as well ! One of my favorites I still listen to in my lowrider is Young, Gifted and Black. That horn !! My sh*t was also Wrath Of Kane ! One of my relatives who knew I was a heavy Kane fan thought I only liked it because it was by him, because he didn't really like it. That Prince Of Darkness album had some hard songs as well. I still listen to The Lover In You, Prince Of Darkness, but my favorite fromthe album is Groove With It. I can obviously go on forever about Kane but I'll land my plane with this: One of the coldest of his time. Much love, respect and reverence 🙏🏾
Kane was like a SuperHero to us kids growning up. Aint a dam thing changed. I almost as much gray in my beard as big bro now.. but he's STILL a SuperHero.

I love hearing about stories from the OGs. I really really love the love he showed to Rick James. He put a lot of Black artists on his tours and showed them BOTH sides of show bidness.
THEM LORDS SO FINE. SOME DONT LIKE WINE. THEY NEVER ON TIME. THIS NEW YEAR IM ON MY GRIME PLUS NO MORE SLIME. BECAUSE IM. BROOKLYN S ILLEST. BDK HERE. N NAS N BARI. JUST HEAR US. 1
Thank you! Grateful this interview had a legitimate trade craft discussion. Let’s be real, Big Daddy Kane is one of the best rappers ever. But also a great musician and all about the music. I really appreciated his reference to phrasing, specific tempos and what works best for him. I could go on forever…..my favorite sample and lyrics in rap history is Another Victory with the Booker T and The M.G.s cut Melting Pot with a Steve Cropper guitar riff. Handful of rappers with confidence and skills to hang with the samples on BDK’s tracks. He phrases like a bebop horn player…..this is what greatness sounds like.
i literally love seeing our hip hop legends still here, still looking good, still healthy, and still pushing knowledge/experience. all these new rappers “don’t wanna be rapping till they’re 40” shit is so lame.
for the Prince fans: go to 1:10 as the approx. starting point where Kane talks about meeting Prince. And BTW, what a great interview with one of the godfathers of rap and hip-hop!
Still remember the first time I heard R.A.W. one of the many rap songs that brings me that same feeling as when I first heard it.... Gotta say I was a fan when he dropped R.A.W. but, when I heard Set it off..... I became a forever fan.... One of the architects of modern day Hip Hop 💯👑🎤
Was blessed to meet Kane Twice.. The first time was at the premier of Posse somewhere in midtown. My brother worked for Warner Bros at the time and got me a pass. I took a girl that asked me to her prom. We were getting friendly and just at that time Kid Capri and Kane were walking up the aisle.. Kid Capri hit us with "looks like yall making ya own movie" ..lol. The second time I met him I was trying to get to Astoria from Harlem over the Triboro Bridge. I had missed the last M60 bus from 1st Ave at like 1am. I wasn't about to walk all the way back to Lexington to catch the 4 Train. So back then, EZ Pass didn't exist and the toll was like 5-6 bucks cash. So I figured I'd ask if I paid somebody's toll they'd give me a lift to the other side of the bridge. I saw a Mazda MPV pull up at the light. I hit em with the question and the driver said bet. I get in and It's none other than Mister Cee driving and Kane in the passenger seat. NYC is bugged. I've met damn near every hip hop hero I've ever had here.
29:11 Kane didn't want to discuss that!! Lol...Dude's memory is on point and he can't remember that? Hehehehe...Salute Kane for not wanting to speak on any beef or disagreement!!
Kane... You were really r and b in those two albums, but dark chocolate and prince of darkness were really underated albums. I love those two albums. I still play them today. people need to listen to those two albums more
What a legend
Legend: an overused word, but not the wrong one.

Even has your first name⁉️⁉️⁉️

Amazing interview. Salute to Big Daddy Kane one of my all time favourite MC's 👑✊🏾

Man as a kid I thought I was BDK...He had it all...Perfect rapper💯💯💪🏾💪🏾👑
That offbeat snare on "Raw" single handedly carried jungle and drum n bass.
I thought Kane's Get Into It was incredible. That was the first song I heard from him. The A-Side to Something Funky & Rhymin' With Biz. His rap style on that song was ridiculous.
All Massive
Yo that Rick James Impression was on fucking point. Surprised tf outta me. Salute the one of the greatest of all time. BDK
Happy 35th anniversary to Big Daddy Kane's debut album!
this dude asks some really fucking great questions man
Big Daddy Kane is one of the greats. Hoping we get another album from him. I enjoyed this interview!
58:01 Leave it to Pusha T to ask a question involving Kane😭
Despite what people may say, Taste Of Chocolate was amazing. Even lookin back on it, i think it was ahead of it's time.
Ok, if you say so
"Do I want vanilla? Or do I want a taste of chocolate? Nah, I want something slamming."
If Taste of Chocolate was the debut album they'd be no issues but the change was night & day from the first 2 albums. Especially the 1st one. Love Mr Pitiful btw
Listening to it now, it's not bad BUT it doesn't hold up to LLTK or IABDT.
@@pablodadosKane would of body that dude
Great interview.
I loved the KRS 1 vs Big Daddy Kane Verzuz. BX vs Brooklyn.
Kane you are loved brother. This interview is well structured.Its easy to ask general questions A true interviewer must ask the highly challenging questions and you have done an excellent job.
It was..Rakim.. Slick

The ip man of rap .. nobody’s equal ..👏
The rapper that was most influential on me. I wanted to be Kane. Coolest rapper ever!
Rakim is the James Brown of Rap, Big Daddy Kane is Sly Stone...Kool Keith is George...lol
DAMN, KOOL KEITH STILL *”HOUSING THINGS‼️‼️‼️”*
@@cld_crush_brthers_ultra_ma60 what?
I swear I absolutely love hearing a rick james rip or prince rip stories man thoes guys were amazing 😂
This was amazing. His track ‘Young, Gifted and Black’ was so hard… as were many other tracks. ‘Another Victory’ was hard, too.
Kane stillrocks a crowd. Dope interview.
The interview guy is awesome, he does good research🔥 no one else asks questions like this.
He's been around for years. One of the few solid writers in Hip-Hop. #sohh
@@meatyyumsteveSohh forum member from 2001 to 2012 🙌🏽
@@truthteller5521 I own SOHH. Wow.
Kane from a generation that was street but knew how and when to turn the streets on and off when necessary
Old School Hip Hop stories are the best stories
awesome interview. Great questions.
In my Top 5 GOATS DoA! Long Live The Kane!
1 hour of pure hip hop convo. I dig this 💯🔥🔥🔥
🙏🙏🙏
I was at the versuz too , it was dope. This is great interview
He remembered everything in his life except for the SYMPHONY. Long live the KANE
yes, and I've heard pieces of the story in other interviews. I guess he just didn't want to get into it today.😂 Long live the Kane!
I heard it was some legal stuff that happened with The Symphony. No one in the Juice Crew talks about what happened.
That couldn't happen today.
Exactly! His memory is impeccable but now he don’t remember anything concerning “Symphony” 🤭🤭🤭 It’s alright Kane 🤣🤣🤣
Gratitude
Peace to King Asiatic Nobody's Equal and The Juice Crew.
Peace to Rick James.
Peace to 8 track tapes (no rewind option).
8 track tapes were amazing. You’re tripping.
Where is the Prince-mention?
around 1:00:00 within the Nas question…. we’ll add to the chapters too
Kane was like a SuperHero to us kids growning up. Aint a dam thing changed. I almost as much gray in my beard as big bro now.. but he's STILL a SuperHero.
'88 Nassau Coliseum... Biz leads off the set and Kane, Scoob and Scrap come out blazing minutes later.
Kane's a good dude. A legend & one of thé best to ever do it.
I agree 👍👍👍👍
Big Daddy Kane the only man to go up against Dolemite and live to tell it✊🏿
