I’ve been looking for this video for the longest, thank you for uploading. RIP Derek Boland. 🙏🏾
Well said, so sad.
Thanks for uploading this. A great reference point of a place in time for the UK. R.I.P. Derek B
Really appreciate this upload..an important story in UK Hip Hop history..
thanks for uploading man!!!!
Beautiful post. Been after this for years.
Good comment. I nearly wore my album out. Used to wear black 501’s but couldn’t afford the Versace leather jacket.
@@Oooo-bi7bi hahah, same. That LP was like a painting by da vinci, absolute top class.
1st seen Derek on MTV back in the 80s rapping Bullet From A gun, got hooked straight away and purchased the album on vinyl, yes I still have it.
Thank you for sharing this...👊😎✌️
I was a big fan as a kid. It was great having a rapper from the UK. Me and my dad didn’t see the West Indian population of Britain as anymore than friends at school and workmates for my dad. I think Manchester where I grew up. Has the largest community of West Indians and their children. After London.
R.I.P. Derek Bowland.
Boy how times have changed…
Not.
RIP Mr Bowland.
I used to rinse out that album, and he never got the damn respect he deserved.
Good post, I haven’t seen this for years.
Changed so much tho. Don't lie to yourself
Thank you for this, sir.
He spoke to me as a young white kid. The racism was screwed up then. Let alone decades later now. And It’s obvious when I go out clubs pubs with a white mate. You get noticeably treated differently. Than when you go out with a black mate,It needs to change. Growing up as a poor white kid in Manchester, I have more in common with black Brits . Than I do the middle/upper class white Brits. Sad that we lost an intelligent pioneer so young.R.I.P. Derek B . A legendary figure in UK Hip Hop.
The same mate infect I feel more at ease.when am around with Black people and I know what day go through from day to day stuggles. And see some white.people look at me funny.so what I have black people in my family and proud they are part my family and always will be 🤘❤

This guy was a pioneer. Yes the 'yankee' Accent. Yes POP Hits,but he took UK HIPHOP 🇬🇧 In to mainstream with Cookie Crew,Cutmaster MC,MC Duke and REBEL MC And Merlin amongst others, and Daddy FREDDIE & Asher D. REST IN POWER!!!!!!!!!!

Absolute legend here in New Zealand back in the day. RIP
Derek B is the Greatest. Gone too soon.
Seeing this now and knowing what I know now...What I can say that at 08:27 the man said it "delayed gratification"...Also the man at 08:53 said the most important thing "academic and political success underpined by economics success-GET FINANCIALLY EDUCATED in other words Money Power Respect is the way we break away, Derrick was right the people needed to put themselves out there and make themselves seen. Basically blacks were making moves back then but we were suppressed...Derek's mun was a great woman. Oh, I was 18 at the time this was made...a lot has changed but a lot of the underlying problems still exists.
