Absolutely..! This is exactly how dudes I grew up with and went to high school in Brooklyn with spoke. I miss that NYC...now its a bunch of hipsters, investment bankers and social media "influencers."
Extra P's beard looks really good, the gray looks good, the brother looks like he's taking care of himself, which is something I like to see. Alot of these rappers be looking all drugged out, fat, out of shape, tired, my brother looks good. He's one of my favorite producers of all time, he's hip hop through and through.
@Tha Imperial....I knew some idiot would come along and have something stupid to say about my comment. Why can't we black men show love to one another? Why can't I give the brother credit for looking well? Health is big my brother, your health is your wealth in a sense. I see so many old school rappers looking bad from not taking care of themselves. I'm giving him props all the way around. And did you read? I showed respect for him as a producer, as someone who made a huge contribution to hip hop. Why you mad? My brother, you need to grow up out here.
Action Jackson! Bro don’t pay ignorant people any attention. They are a waste of your time and energy. Those of us that were supposed to get what you said can appreciate it for what it was.
@@tribeofbenjamin3404 .....I hear you my brother, I thought I was safe to say what I said because I thought no kids would be here trolling because they don't know who Extra P is, he's from our generation of hip hop but I guess I was wrong. Thanks for the support homie.
I can’t help but to wish the best for people like Large Professor. You can look at his demeanor and tell he’s always been proud of Nas success. It’s no hater bone in his body. Salute Large Professor. He’s definitely a legend in the game.
That's why Nas said Hip Hop is dead. He was the capstone to the pyramid of hip hop. He completed it. After Nas there was no where else for hip hop to go. Time for something new Enter mumble rap
Salute to Large Pro, one of the most slept on producers during the 90s golden era of hip hop. Has a classic album, and produced classic tracks for 80s AND 90s legends (Nas, Kool G Rap, Rakim, Big Daddy Kane, GangStarr, Tribe Called Quest, etc). Had the pleasure of randomly meeting this humble brother in a Manhattan street last year. Peace to a true hip hop elder.
I had never heard large professor give an interview before. I had no idea his speech patterns, mannerisms and whole vibe were RAKIMesque. Much respect. Saw him and Main Source in 1991 at Rascals teen dance club in Naugatuck Connecticut
@@designatedpiledriver8216 i never did spend my time watching interviews. Recently , i started watching vlad's interviews. Plus large professor always been on some low key in the background but thorough shit
Large pro is a legend... till this day the AZ and styles P the hardest is (no pun) one of THE HARDEST beats I've ever heard... but this interview will get very interesting once he brings up nas and the "worst beat picker" topic
Nas is the worst beat picker. He had CRAZY chemistry with Large Pro, Pete rock, and Premier. Then he goes n does shit loads of songs with salaam remi mediocre ass.......
Son got hip hop in his bloodstream, tracks like: In the sun ft Q Tip and One on One ft Nas are the best hip hop tracks ever made...Respect due, One Love True
I'm a real advocate of the new idea of putting HIP HOP into categories now.Once cooperate America got hip hop in it's clutches, and the overnight success of the internet came into play, the hip hop game has changed....maybe for the better of the pocket, but as a culture, the powers that be still cut the biggest checks for the way "they" want it to go....just hope we don't lose sight that hip hop has evolved, it's multi cultural, comes from any where on the planet and the ESSENCE of ALL WE CALL HIP HOP, even through so called mumble rap, has gone no where. Simple and plain JUST MAKE HOT MUSIC the public always decides! If and when🚨 lyrical wordplay mixed with creatively produced samples from uneartherd albums and r&b hits🚨 rules hip hop again, we will see who from this new era will be here to last the test of time, like GREATS before them
Naji sister nancy’s bam bam came out in 82 Pete rock was a kid at that time so it makes more because his roots are Jamaican and him as one of hip hops greatest producers that was a great sample and mixture
Professor said "When I was 12, I was a fan of the Jackson 5" - Incorrect. It should be "When I was young, I was a fan of the Jackson 5". Get it right P. ☝🏻

Much props to Large professors vary cool dude. We went to do job together in his pathfinder, and I didn't even know who he was till now (wow) Super humble.
I dont understand how Vlad can say Nas is the worse beat picker when every beat on Illmatic is nice. How many hip hop artists can say they have an iconic, whole album full of great beats and rhymes? Nowadays, everyone is just happy if you have a good sounding single.I've listened to Illmatic many times from the beginning to the end.
yeah, but over time Nas has made many other albums where a GANG of the beats were suspect. I always say his ears were the best during the first two albums... they been half-assed ever since.
I had Breaking Atoms. Used to bump the hell outta that album. First time I listened to “Live at the BBQ” and heard Nasty Nas Was a fan of his since then
After Nas said he "went to hell for snuffin' Jesus," mad rappers started beating up on J.C. after that. Big L did it. Smoothe the Hustler, Biggie, and others. I was like, "whoa."
A gazillion questions about Nas when Extra P worked with so many Queens legends,including the late Paul C,Organized Konfusion,G Rap,Eric B(Queens)and Rakim,Akinyele,Tribe,Mobb Deep,Powerule,Shante,Craig G,Cormega,The Beatnuts,Neek The Exotic,Nore,Mic Geronimo etc.
Ahh man! I first heard Live at the BBQ on the Stretch Armstrong & Bobbito underground station before it dropped commercially and I instantly appreciated Nas's style. The intro he said he's a streets disciple... my raps are trifle... I shoot slugs from my brain just like rifle...🤦♂️ He reminded me of Tragedy but a demented version in an illmatic way. He was saying some off the hook stuff. I used to sit by the radio to record the new stuff and man I replayed his verse numerous times. That song was fire. P verse was crazy too. I grab up girls like Jack's add 'em on like tax then I'm over like hot tracks...🤦♂️
@@dianevrules Faking the funk was on that soundtrack and on the radio as well as video rotation on Video Music Box.I don't know where you are from but in Brooklyn(Tri-State Area NY.NJ.CT), Faking the funk was bigger..Vald meant on the first album, Breakin Atoms, front door was the biggest single but as far as their career, Faking The Funk was definitely their biggest single...
'Breaking Atoms' is such a classic album...so classic, the wax or CD costs a grip to get. I broke my original tape like three or four times and after scotching it together several times, I decided to buy the CD.
Of course it matters that Nas was on that track, but Breaking Atoms is a gem of an album even without that track -- most songs on that album are way *better* than Live at the BBQ. I don't think Vlad really understands this
When you look up "NY Cat" in the dictionary you'll see a image of Large Professor.

Real shit
hand pump big facts

Large Professor is so humble, educated and timeless
Can’t wait for part where Vlad tells professor Nas is the worst beat picker
He won't hell back track and say well not yours Large Pro 😂😂😂
He's definitely gonna bring it up , that's the reason why he's interviewing Large Pro.
Oh shit

Nas is my hiphop idol always drops jewels substance the way he can paint a picture with words is like NO OTHER!
I wished he found a way to get Nas & Rakim on a song in 91-92
Rakim wasn't fucking with Nas back then Nas was more under G Rap at that time
It wasn't meant to be, brody. Get over it.
well they eventually did work together on classic with kanye and krs

On the next Vlad: Vlad talks to Nas mailman.
"Fatal is merciful and they curse me
When I grip the mic I show no mercy"
"Just Hangin' Out" is the first hip-hop song to sample Sister Nancy's "Bam Bam"?
Jeff yes then Pete Rock sampled it in the Basement

EITHER THAT or P ROCK'S 🎶THE BASEMENT🎶(not sure which came out 1st).

🕺🏾I Like How Large Professor Put Vlad On Front Street 1:29 As If He Didn't Understand His Own Profession Or Study Professionalism
Large Pro seems like a pretty chill and respectful guy.
I listen to “Looking At The Front Door” at least once a month. Classic song, a song with a MESSAGE.
That song brings back so many memories.
Friendly game of baseball 🏏 🚓 was crazy.
This has to be my favorite interview of 2019 and definitely the dopest Vlad interview!!!
this interview should have millions of views. A Legend amongst legends
Need to find them demos!!!!
damn you can't even ask that man about his own work and production for more than one video before you start asking him about Nas?
It’s coming fam...hold tight
7:50 - thank you Large Pro for confirming the illest segment in Nas' verse. It fell in such a pocket that it damn near made ya hair stand up
This might be your best guest so far Vlad. Great job. It’s like you documenting hiphop history.

Nas has always been the King of NY.

This going to be a flashback if them demos come out
It's the 25th anniversary of illmatic, those demos need to come out since they gonna reissue that album again for the millionth time
It amazes me how much Rakim and Large Professor sound so much alike when they talk because they use the same dialogue, slang and terms.
I had Breaking Atoms. Used to bump the hell outta that album. First time I listened to “Live at the BBQ” and heard Nasty Nas
Was a fan of his since then
Most important part of interview - Let's go Extra P!!!!
Monumental cat right here - raised on the purest hip hop - reflected in his legacy and impact #salute
After Nas said he "went to hell for snuffin' Jesus," mad rappers started beating up on J.C. after that. Big L did it. Smoothe the Hustler, Biggie, and others. I was like, "whoa."
Some say hating is confused admiration - NAS
A gazillion questions about Nas when Extra P worked with so many Queens legends,including the late Paul C,Organized Konfusion,G Rap,Eric B(Queens)and Rakim,Akinyele,Tribe,Mobb Deep,Powerule,Shante,Craig G,Cormega,The Beatnuts,Neek The Exotic,Nore,Mic Geronimo etc.
I remember when his album dropped I was 14 and I honestly didnt know who Gandhi was until Nas said his name

Ahh man! I first heard Live at the BBQ on the Stretch Armstrong & Bobbito underground station before it dropped commercially and I instantly appreciated Nas's style.
The intro he said he's a streets disciple... my raps are trifle... I shoot slugs from my brain just like rifle...🤦♂️
He reminded me of Tragedy but a demented version in an illmatic way. He was saying some off the hook stuff. I used to sit by the radio to record the new stuff and man I replayed his verse numerous times.

Vlad getting one step closer to interviewing Nas. Bit by bit, he’s getting there 👍💯 #Babysteps.
And Nas really did try to hang Jay Z during his summer jam performance. That's why they wouldn't let him perform that year. It was a mock hanging.
Not only was he gonna hang Jay he was bringing out Foxy Az and few others but hot 97 was so much on Jay's dick they told Nas he couldn't diss him

Of course it matters that Nas was on that track, but Breaking Atoms is a gem of an album even without that track -- most songs on that album are way *better* than Live at the BBQ. I don't think Vlad really understands this
YOUR BEST INTERVIEW!!!
my favorite from Breaking Atoms is "Just a Friendly Game of Baseball" that's the jam
Vlad forgot 'friendly game of baseball' and 'peace is not the word to play'
"Boyz In Da Hood" Had The Baseball Track Playing In The Background During The Doe Boy "Do We Have A Problem"? Scene....
"my troops roll up with a strange force$$$ I was trapped in a cage and let out by the Main Source$$$" - Nas
That line sold me on Nas immediately.
