Lyrics:
If you don't know me by now I doubt you'll ever know me
I never won a Grammy, I won't win a Tony
But I'm not the only MC keepin' it real
When I grab the mic to smash a rapper, girls go Illlll!
Check the time as I rhyme, it's 1995
Whenever I arrive the party gets liver
Flow with the master rhymer, that's to leave behind
The video rapper, you know, the chart climber
Clapper, down goes another rapper
Onto another matter, punch up the data, Blastmaster
Knowledge Reigns Supreme Over Nearly Everybody
Call up KRS, I'm guaranteed to rip a party

Who's listening in 2024
🎉❤❤🇸🇳🇸🇳🇸🇳🎉
That song goes so hard in my Peugeot206 that it turns into a Lowrider. freakin love it
"Clap your hands everybody..."
When ever I arrive the party gets livea
🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷 com certeza!! Relíquia!!
Ah, when hip-hop was nothing but skill, character, flavor, realness, and discernible lyrics...
Brian Lockett isn’t the song literally about how hip-hop is no longer like that lol
that's a load of bullshit. what about kendrick, danny brown, MF DOOM, etc. ?
if you get your hip hop from the TV or soundcloud you either don't know hip hop or don't care to know.
@@Maynard0504 Kendrick ain't all that anymore lol, but K.A.A.N. and Joey Bada$$, Cozz and J. Cole are dope. The point is valid though, this was the norm back then, now you have to dig deep for an artist like them
Miss those days SO much. Hate that migo crap
There are plenty of great artists nowadays you chose to close your mind and you have no one to blame but yourself
2:34 "Your style is counterfeit, now tone it down a bit, my title you will never get I'm too intelligent"🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Absolutely killer line.
@@christopherbanuelos2147 thanks for the comment now I can come back to this masterpiece.
I'm eternally grateful to say I've seen KRS live at least once in my life. Quite possibly the greatest mind that hip hop has ever seen.
me too and it was all the way in nz
Me too him and immortal technique in Manchester 💎💎💎
I finally got to see him in the UK can definitely say I got to see one of the Hip Hop greats live
Same! 2016! Jazz Cafe
Moi aussi à l'Elysée Montmartre à Paris.
Krs-one is criminally underrated
Squinty Biggins no he isn’t you’re just to young to remember when he came out
Lol too young, When you can tell me what a cassette tape is you can come talk to me. I can still remember my cousin giving me RoTBB on a cassette in like an aerosmith case so my mom wouldn't know. haha too young, I wish
Or gotta be a white boy
can confirm, am white
Squinty Biggins no problem with that but see what I’m saying ain’t 1993 no more he’s a legend always will be
this is the real hip hop
..And of course our ERA never flip flopped
No its not. This is rap.
Nothing is better than old school boom bap!!!!!💥
There is nothing, and I really mean NOTHING that compares to our 90’s rap stars 🙏🏼💙
TOTALLY Classic
Except the 80’s
WORD UP!
@@bbennyj90’s is the golden era. 80’s was more experimental.
Today's rap music is 🗑️
Up early listening to greats
Dax you are going to be up there with krs one and 2pac one day
Robert Lindsay no, no he isn’t......
Robert Lindsay no
It's great to see a great singer like you being humble and appreciating the roots. Wish you luck mate.
Up early smoking weed listening to greats😁
The fact that theres no bottles being popped, no drugs being used, no naked girls, no disrespect for oneself or others. clean lyrics as well. By “clean” i mean that his flow is smooth and his vocabulary is extensive, he uses foul language but only to diss. krs is a legend
The lyrics are not exactly clean, he does say nigga, and 90's hip hop did have girls and drugs and shit like that lol
It's ch.illmatic i mean clean in the sense that its smooth. I understand that the n word is not proper, it doesnt matter your skin color, its not something you’d want to say with joy. The amount of times he says the n word is extremely limited. Also, he uses that word to offend, not exactly he refers to himself as the n word.
Thomas Fields 😂 facts
Thomas Fields why do you say? You like that song, or what?
jose jose munoz “some mcs don’t like the krs but they must respect him cos they notice kid gets in they rectum” reyt clean that 😂
one the greatest rap songs of all time
Mane mane mane he is fire ruclips.net/video/yqe8covBqyY/видео.html
The voice, flow, delivery, punchlines, wordplay PERFECT!
Protect dj premier at all cost
💯
The realest MC! 🎤🌹🎶 During his show in Kansas, there was people break dancing so he invited them up to the stage to do their thing and it was too magical! After the show he came out to the floor and took pictures and signed stuff for EVERYONE! 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
The realest or Nas
I met him in Dundee in 2016, he’s a really nice guy
In 92 I watched him pull cats on stage to battle. Then broke down different records to record. Different rhyme patterns and beat tempos and all. Teaching them how to record tracks
@@dantegreen4094 That’s so dope!🔥🔥🔥
@@KcNinjette I was completely AMAZED! That's when I started calling him The Teacher
As a metal head, much respect to KRS-one 💯
If you never been to a KRS show you missed his true artistry.
So true!
Damn. Wish I was born earlier😭
This is facts. Best live concert I've been to
Seen him twice......epic
my dad was his dj for a few shows in boston
Classic!! Respect.
salve rapbox!
Rap Box salvee!

caralhoooow
godfathers of hiphop
This song is still a hip-hop classic 😀
s dot
PREACH!
and ALWAYS will be!
Dj Premier makes gold
So real💯💯
This track is cemented in hip hop history 🔥🔥
One of the best MC’s and one of the best producers = classic 👌🏻
Nuyorican/Cubana Bronx B- girl loving this.. This music is the soundtrack of my childhood🇨🇺🇵🇷✊🏿✊🏾✊🏽
Knowledge Reigns Supreme-Over Nearly Everyone.
The man is a legend. He goes deeeeep!
L.E.G.E.N.D!!!!!!
😏
tee pee KRS1
I started watching interviews and it really does seem like he cares about everyone succeeding for the better and I mean everyone. He's an interesting character.
#fact
IT'S 2021 AND THIS SONG STILL GIVES ME THE SAME FEELING AS IT DID WHEN IT CAME OUT!!!
And you was born 10 years later
Bought this CD as soon as it dropped.
NO WAY REALLY
Bro same smoking bongs jamming this right now
Hardcore of hip hop
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 This track made me wanna learn English, doubt I'd be the same person without this song 🤔. Love from South Africa 🇿🇦✌🏿
50 YEARS AND WE DONT STOP!
🖤🎵🎶🎧🏅
This song gives me chills. Krs one is a true legend!!!
Damn I thought it was just me
This was how hip hop was supposed to sound. Amazing!🔥
100× deeper living through it 10 toes down.
my friend who introduced me to Krs music just passed away today..this was the first song he put and I loved krs since then..he loved this song ,he used to sing word for word
😥
KRS v Kane will be a treat for the ole hip hop heads
Dj Premo, best producer EVER
The entire NY rap owe him their existence!
KRS Rakim G Rap Kane LL all were legendary before we heard of Premier. let's not go to far. Preemo get's busy but we gotta keep it reasonable.
Plot Twist:He's from Houston...
Premier is the greatest ever. OP didn’t stutter.
Alongside RZA and Dre. Holy trinity
@@FF-oo8nz RZA is 👎🏿👎🏿 Trackmasters Kill Him and Dre is The Greatest
I'm stuck in the 90s
Me too I just can't listen to new school rap
+King Golly I can as long as it's shit like Apathy, Celph Titled ect.
me too dude In 30 years old and still rocking the old school
+Your Mother I dig joey badass
You aren't stuck! You just know HIP HOP when you hear it.
Had to make a quick jump here to watch this classic after the inside scoop from DJ Premier, the process for this track was a nice story specially the intro.
Same here! Legendary music never ages
Same
No shit me2
Same!
Same
Shout out to DJ PREMIER for this killer beat and the million freestyles I threw on it🙌🏿🇿🇦
Hopin' your defence mechanism can divert my heat-seeking lyricism
Goddamn genius!
Nick Haimov dam right!!!
Read your comment as he spoke the same line.
KRS one of the greatest MC's of all time.
Real hip hop. Ilove the messages this guy brings. And a funky beat too. Sweet
Top 3 easily
Yeah
top 5
@@saringaclose lol just curious what's your top 5
Forever in my top 10 Hip-Hop songs of all time
VERZUS IS GONNA BE CRAZY.
I really hope 2k20 introduces some millenials to this genius, Classic MC, Bars and Boom Bap
I'm 14 and I listen to nas, the roots, de la soul, kris, outkast, sade, digiable planets
OK BOOMER. It's so ignorant to think other generations don't listen to this. You know the first millennials was born in the early '80s? We grew up with this.
@@pookeyblow on ight
Jake Warner I knew about KRS before having 2K, but 2K made me listen to him a lot more.
Zoomers* millenials were the ones to listen to old school rap. Gen z are the ones born after 1996.
who'd still be here in 2019 ?
for sure
Fo Life. I'll be here @!
Me Myself and I..SAY NO MO..
...NEY TO WATCH BUT STILL LOVING THE SONG.
I'll still be here till the day that i die
Back when hip hop was still alive 👍🏿
This was the illest versuz.
Word . I don’t know if it can be outdone
KRS that real dude that still gives a shit about hiphop. not many out there.
Real hip hop, respect from brazil.
Not really you bitch
+JadonJJ16 y r u so hateful??? you r the problem......
Shut the fuck up bitch
+JadonJJ16 Stfu
JadonJJ16 your mum should of swallowed you.
Premier is hands down my favorite Hip Hop producer and it's not even close!
"Hip Hop is not a music. It's a lifestyle." KRS-ONE
Happy Birthday KRS-One!
Eric Bee shutup
Eric Bee bitch ass lol
REAL HIP HOP, RESPECT FROM CHILE.
Hace poco me di cuenta que Canserbero mencionó a KRS en una canción, ahora veo por qué :O
Respect!!!!
It would seem that Chile knows whats' up.
Weeenaaa
@@necsobeat Flow y lírica casi que en todos los sentidos, aparte si ve sus álbumes siempre habla a favor del pueblo, sin necesidad de ser mainstream, mucha gente de él solo conoce "Sound of tha Police" teniendo mucho mejores canciones. Y Canser basicamente dijo "¿porqué Kanye West tiene más premios que KRS?" refiriéndose a que es simplemente superior. Lo cual en mi opinión no podría ser más cierto.
Much respect to KRS 1 and a host of other relevant veteran rappers. This music is to deep for modern day youth. They only into rappers who ain't saying nothing but making loud repeated outbursts. The beat alone is hella sick
The kavebeasts way of destroying Our music, giving more exposure time to the ignorant *_Crappers._*
As KRS said himself, Og's can learn from New Cats and vice versa. Everyone is too proud to let go of their ego's for the love music and the culture of hip hop.
KRS is really a storytelling lyrical genius been calling them out no one Stepped up
Kendrick Is better
One of my favorite KRS-One songs. So dope and he's so confident on this track. I love the sound he had on this whole album. He started getting louder and sounded a bit harder than before. All his stuff from 1987-1997 is his best IMO, but there's some gems in his later stuff as well, "Know Thy Self" being one of them.
Yes this album is m'y favorite from him. Free Mumia and Represent da Real hip hop are dope too.
His album with Marley Marl and Buckshot are faya
His 2016 album : the world is mind. Is pure sonic perfection
KRS One Living Legend of Hip Hop.
50 years of Hip Hop!!!!
21 years later STILL BANGIN
The GOAT! 30 years of straight fire!!!!
This is what HIP HOP is suppose to sound like. Classic, Timeless is what this is.
krs is one of the dopest mcs ever, this shows real mc skills
David Young FACTS!!
actually the dopest
Ok!!!
This shit absolutely is LEGENDARY
Word to my motha
Never consider K as one of my top 20 or top 5 but after verzuz with kane he is up there
Word KRS got joints for days. A lot of ppl realized the same thing
Where u been at! Krs been top notch..checkout his track Kenny Parker Show! Lyrically 🔥🔥🔥
Yall here after the VERSUZ ain't ya
WELCOME to class 💯
Whos here in 2020?
MrDhartz 2020, Mc’s still act like they don’t know!
🇭🇺🇭🇺🇭🇺
Apparently your corny comments biting ass..
Me I’m literally 14 and listen to all the old school hip hop modern hip hop is just bad
NBA 2K20 brought me here
his skills speak for themselves
Big ups all the hardcore Hip Hop headz!!!!🔥🔥
I fell in love with HIP-HOP thanks to this song and 'step into a world'.
KRS One is a synonym of hip hop. 90s was so much fun and joy thanks to the black music. ❤
Never heard anything as dope as this.
All hail KRS one 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
Grew up to this shit....
KRS and Premier went hard on this track. Perfection, you cant remix this and get any better, no guest features/appearance can add more value, its just perfect
Even if not necessary, an extra verse from Guru would have been great, though.
@DaPhunkPhenomena F yeah baldehead slick would murder on this
The real hip-hop back then just storytelling and goodvibes
Premo a legend for this track alone
man this beat is so fire!
preemo baby
Ammer Reduron Nothing less is expected from the king of the turntables!
Only DJ Premier
Premo
It's genuinely refreshing to hear a hip hop song that doesn't feature bad singing over auto-tune...
#actualhiphop
KillerInstinct69 Uk hiphop mate, or Immortal Tech, Diabolic, Cannabis, Vinnie Paz and that from Murica thesedays.
+A_S996 there is not little boy
+ty bx there is, you're just a dumb fuck "old man" :)
+A_S996 nope most of today's rap and hop hop suck I'm 18 young my friends listen to wiz and lil Wayne fuck that the only modern songs I like is hood gone love it and I will see I again the fast and furious one
+A_S996 There are only a few dozen songs in the musical generation that barely come close to these songs. You are actually listening to what's being said with this music, as opposed to what these whack "rappers" are saying now, right? :-)
This track so clean I don’t gotta shower today
Mona lisa's producer felt this beat in his chest! 🔥🔥
That Clifford Brown sample tho🔥🔥🔥
Yup!! Thx for posting.
@3:51 “Hoping your defense mechanism can divert my heat seeking lyricism.”.
Dude the music was right there when I read this comment :O
Awesome! I planned it that way. :-D @@melkin_g
As I spark mad Izm
The 1996 lyrical style is what I give em
2023 .. If you're reading this ..sorry I'm doing my best
2024...you've got this.
No Truer Words spoken 👑 🫡 Still bangz in 2024
I call this REAL HIPH HOP music. someone bring this back..pleaseeeeee
www.mentalgorilla.bandcamp.com
Đulza McK. There's plenty of real hip hop left. This "bring the good shit back" attitude is so played out, stop being lazy and seek out quality and you'll find it.
could you list some?
Ohio Ono Nujabees, Guts, Atmosphere, Flying Lotus works with a lot of good current artists and a lot of these "old skool" mc's still come out with music. For example, Del The Funky Homosapien has consistently put music out.
thanks bro was just talking about Del the other day
How is he not considered the greatest of all time? Rapper, lyricist, hype man, show stopper, all of that... Thank you for the Knowledge and the beats, you are a blessing and a gift to all b-boys and b-girls worldwide!
sorry but rakim is the goat
alexmendozaism he is people front but THEY KNOW!!! Facts!!!
Jack_The_Masochist_Kelly MMA top three krs,rakim, Kane
James Mcclain they act like they don’t know
Nas is the best lyricist MC of all time . illmatic alone bigger than entire hip hop albums
Its crazy how many people come back to this everyday... this song is masterpiece!
Krs-one the best 🔥🔥
He should've got a Grammy or Tony for this song😎😎
Great Comment
Ha ha ha!
The Beat is MAGIC!!! KRS a true lirycist Masta'!
EflowBeats (lyricist)!😉🤫
DJ Premire
This is proper rap …..kids you must learn
Rocks with KRS... LEGEND....FACT
BTW KRS is One of the sickest and articulate men in the game!!! Almost 40 years in the game and still killen em!!!!!!
I NEVER GET TIRED OF LISTENING TO ANYTHING KRS PUTS OUT!
Another sick jam by this guy!!! Rocking this since 95’
L'essence même du HipHop!! Je ne m'en lasserais jamais!!
Remember you, must, LEARN!
Seen your comments on many classic songs yoo

Probably 1 of the DOPEST 3 Versus I ever heard…
I remember buying this in 1995 on tape and it still goes AMAZING 🔥🔥

If you listen to this track in 2013 you are a real.

Jake Bender im 20 and i think this is dope
Legend in his own Lane
#1 Undisputed!
Song came out 20 years ago and still banging!!!!!
+TheOldskool2009 Yep, two whole decades ago I was wearing out a tape of the Radio 1 Rap Show when Tim Westwood first played this and you're right, it still sounds just as fresh today.
Brilliant brilliant
This still Bangs in 2019, thanx to DJ Premiere and KRS.
KRS & PREEMO = definition of Hip-Hop
This beat has been in my head all day at work
KRS and Premier = Royalty. These young dudes have no idea what I’m talking about.
Guccio Gucci I’m 12 and yes I do know what you’re talking about
Running into 2020 bumping this legendary record 🔥
