The beat mimicks the James Bond theme song, and the video parodies the goofy bad guys, womanizing, dress code, and especially the intro credits to 1960's James Bond flicks.
Kool Moe Dee and his group, The Treacherous Three are remembered as the originators of fast rapping, directly influencing MCs such as Rakim, and Big Daddy Kane. They are also known as the first MCs to represent lyrical rap.
Kool Moe Dee is an underrated legend. He started out with the Treacherous 3 in the late 70s/early 80s park jam years and completely re-invented himself as a solo artist in the mid-late 80s. His book There's a God on the Mic reviews his top 50 MCs and gives a lot of insight into the art of rapping.
Another fyah track from him is "How You Like Me Now" He had a battle with LL that went hard too. If you can find those diss tracks it would be mad kool to see you review them. I've never seen another RUclipsr do that.
@@PRSPR Respect. And if you want another wicked Hiphop classic video similar to this one check out "Special Ed - The Mission". Special Ed was crazy lyrical and ahead of his time. Bless.
@@PRSPR here is the complete list of the most important diss tracks in the Kool Moe Dee/LL Cool J beef Kool Moe Dee: How Ya Like Me Now (1987) LL Cool J: Jack The Ripper (1989) Kool Moe Dee: Let's Go (1989) LL Cool J: To Da Break of Dawn (1990) & Mama Said Knock You Out (1990) Kool Moe Dee: Death Blow (1991)
The greatest MC in my opinion! He inspired the golden age of Hip Hop. Grand Master Caz from Cold Crush and Melle Mel fromGrand Flash and the Furious Five birthed so many lyricists. Do the research and you will find that all of the greats (Rakim, Big Daddy Kane, KRS-1) respected Moe Dee!
Its all based of of James Bond. the beat is sampled from the James Bond Theme song. heres the top 10 James Bond Movies. ruclips.net/video/KzY3TXikWaE/видео.html
The flow is dope but the lyrics are superior. Knowledge is king, Hittin’ hard and let’s go are some joints you should check out. He, Melle Mel from Grand Master Flash and the Furious Five and Grand Master Caz from the Cold Crush Brothers are Hip Hop’s forefathers. It was these brothers who inspired me to emcee.
It’s a James Bond based video. Moe Dee is the father of all of your favorite MC’s. You know Rakim, Big Daddy Kane. Back in the days, no one wanted to mess with Moe Dee. He is an originator. He was originally in a group (the treacherous Three; check the song “Yhe New Rap Language”.Lyrically, not many could hang!!!
What made KMD unique is he's from the original school of rap from the 70s/early 80s, yet was able to seamlessly evolve with the new school of rap that came in the late 80s without really changing who he was. Can't think of any other rapper who can say that.
KMD was one of THE early rappers. Sadly he's been forgotten b/c his beef w/LL went terrible for him. IMO he still had some of the best lines and style and flow.
" I go to work. Like an architect i build i rhyme it climbs so erect. Skyscrapers look like Atoms. Cons electrons rolling in patterns ". I SO glad to see someone appreciate that bar. When ppl talk about rappers with cleaver word play ,today they always mention Eminem. Nothing against him, he is talented, but thry act like he invented it. I can guarantee Kool Moe Dee is one of the old schoolers that inspired him. Moe Dee realky doesn't get the credit he deserves, and it's a shame. He's one of the best lyrical geniuses ever.
YO @PRSPR you mention the beat. Picture being in a football field and watching the a squad of musicians coming out with trumpets etc If you seen the movie, Drumline, with Nick Cannon. Youll see what I mean.
Salute the Como d five generations after you the young ones are now discovering that you are one of the greatest MCs that ever touch the mic and gave them their rhyme flow skills and you demolished LL Cool j to go into the future as the undisputed heavyweight champion of freestyle battle
BREH!! I can’t tell you how much I enjoyed watching your reaction to Moe Dee. Thank you for doing this. It’s dope to see someone from your generation reacting and respecting the “Work” from one of the Masters of Hip Hop. I haven’t read through all of the comments yet but Moe’s flow laid the foundation of what true Hip Hop is: The Craft of Lyricism. Brotha’s like Rakim and Big Daddy Kane ALWAYS name Kool Moe Dee as one of the greats! Thanks again for posting this, Young Brotha! Your reaction gave me hope for your generation! 😎✊🏾
In the 1990s Kool Moe Dee designed a rap anthem. Not for drug dealers and pimps, but for guys who get up, put their pants on, and undertake the mission of getting out here in these streets and going to a job. You know, the men who build communities. The best job he can get, and do, and see it through every day. Use it.
Solid old school cut. Kool Moe Dee was towards the end of his career in the kate 80's. Definitely one of tge many pillars. I'd equate him solid player in the game. You may not have listen to him back in the day but you knew who he was. NBA equivalent = D-Rose, Paul George, or Jimmy Butler.
I really recommend you this Song that contains in one video some good Okd school Mc’s altogether bro! It’s produced by Dj Premier Song called 1, 2 Pass it Has Fat Joe, Mad Lion, Doug E Fresh, KRS- 1 , Smif n Wesson and Jeru tha Damaja 😎👌

That makes sense, thank you for pointing that out
I agree James Bond!
This is how you rap and flow and not be ignorant and have style
I don't believe everyone but I really believe that this is YOUR first time hearing this!
Kool Moe Dee and his group, The Treacherous Three are remembered as the originators of fast rapping, directly influencing MCs such as Rakim, and Big Daddy Kane. They are also known as the first MCs to represent lyrical rap.
Not only that Kool Moe Dee is the only emcee with solo past the 70's...he is one of the Godfathers of Rap...next to Grandmaster Caz And Mell
Kool Moe Dee is the 1st world renowned battle rapper.
I love the fact that you react to classic material that nobody else is reacting to I appreciate that so much keep it up bro
More reactions to classics to come, I’m glad you mess with it fam 💯
@@PRSPR Fasholy
james bond theme
That makes sense, I never seen that movie that’s why I didn’t know. Thank you for pointing it out
The video is a James Bond "type of vibe"
Kool Moe Dee is an underrated legend. He started out with the Treacherous 3 in the late 70s/early 80s park jam years and completely re-invented himself as a solo artist in the mid-late 80s. His book There's a God on the Mic reviews his top 50 MCs and gives a lot of insight into the art of rapping.
I concur. That book is a classic.
His rhyme schemes in this song are savage.
Yes, they are!!!
Another fyah track from him is "How You Like Me Now"
He had a battle with LL that went hard too. If you can find those diss tracks it would be mad kool to see you review them. I've never seen another RUclipsr do that.
It would be dope to see that very rare to see any kool mo dee reactions
👍🏾💯🔥
Imma add those to my list, I'll definitely do more Kool Moe Dee reactions

Kool Moe Dee went to work with lyrical rhyming that most other rappers could only dream about

Dope that you reacted to Kool Moe Dee. Request you react to Moe Dee’s - How You Like Me Now & LL’s - Jack The Ripper from their battle.

One of the greatest mcs of all time top 3 ,moe dee, rakim ,big daddy kane
The Godfather’s 🐐
Facts my personal Fav
Thats a james bond respect.his like a black bond.do onyx last dayz.word up son
Moe Dee is a master an original and does not get the recognition he deserves. look for his Busy Bee battle tape. (Moe Dee > LL)
Keep in mind the songs/rap back then the beats and lyrics flow together, todays raps/songs don’t they are way off.
That’s very true fam, I agree with you that today’s rap songs don’t flow together well
This was my era. My top three rappers of that time in order. Rakim...Big Daddy Kane....and Moe Dee.

the music video is base off basic James bond 007 movies...the why hes wearing a tux
He is top 5
Caz and mo dee and melle mel were the first great mcs...mo dee fast delivery was potent
An I-SPY movie (🍿🎥) transformed into an I-SPY Rap video (📷📸). Nobody messing with Kool Moe Dee in a battle.
i love this track, one of his best tracks, hes from harlem so i think he inspired Big L a little, especially with punchlines
KMD was one of THE early rappers. Sadly he's been forgotten b/c his beef w/LL went terrible for him. IMO he still had some of the best lines and style and flow.
It didn't though. He ended up leaving the industry after 94 due to the upcoming of the gangsta personna. He wasn't for gangsta rap.
He used to battle LL Cool J all the time
Moe dee was real nice the video is James bond
Gotta watch some of the live performances of this song. He kills it!
