Eiht is a legend. Eiht is an OG. Been a fan for a long time. I appreciate these long, well said interviews Vlad's having with him. I hope at some point Vlad asked him about m.A.A.d city. And I say that because when Kendrick blew up, I had already been a CMW/MC Eiht fan for years. And that album was blowing up and Eiht was on that track, I remember the first time playing that album and seen m.A.A.d city feat. MC Eiht. I was like oh shit. Kendrick got the legend on this track. Which meant a lot to me because I know most other people my age probably didn't know Eiht before that. So I heard it, it was this super West Coast, throwback sounding song and the shit was so insane. But I've never really heard Kendrick or Eiht's take on it, which I was interested in. I think I heard Eiht bring it up once or twice in an interview he did with Krayzie Bone, but I wanna know how that shit came together.
Man, there was a point in my life, in the early and mid nineties when Eiht was my #1 favorite M.C. He's still in my top ten. Love that Vlad shows respect with these longer than normal interview segments. But, next we gotta talk about the DJ Quik beef.
MC Eiht, u deserved an Oscar for "Streiht up Menace". Your music still better than what's now playing on the radio now. N 2 Deep, 8 IZ Enough, and This is a Gang. Still banging.
I laugh constantly whenever Eiht talks. All his scenes in Menace were hilarious. "Yo homey you need some help?" Still one of my favorite rappers ever...
"straight up menace" theme music most definitely. I remember being in Riverside county jail with Eiht in the mid 90s he kept it real then and still real now.
Chicago was real big on Mc Eiht back in the days, Really the whole Compton Movement.We always respected The West Coast gangsta Rap cause we could relate to The Gangs affiliation even though we had our own gangs in Chicago.I've been a fan since the Blue Tape
Rap music was different back in the days , I love DJ quick and I love mc eith even though they were beefing , dr dre and eazy-e were beefing too but they were both great , Dre had Snoop but Eazy had Bone . I'm just happy I had the chance to witness that , now rap music is bullshit and I don't care how good they might be .
A -Wax:"Ya'll niggaz broker than a muthaphucka slangin all that shit in the hood" O-Dog: "We Gotcha Next Time" A-Wax: " Pump My Shit" (Gives Cashiers Two Dollars)
I used to fuck with Eiht's music heavy when I was a young bol. He made some of the most violent music out there. That's why I like drill music, it's like that crazy ass west coast gangbanging drive by music from the early nineties, but in a new generation with a different sound.
Now I understand why Tommy Wright III mentioned Mc Eiht in context with Mississippi. How many of ya'll know about Tommy Wright UG Memphis Legend? Just check: Tommy Wright III - 4 Corners pt. 2
Lcd4lbad - Huh? Didn’t Vlad say Ice Cube was better in his prime than Jay-Z in his prime? He even expressed how he liked the raps n’ whatnot. I don’t know what y’all are on about.
Ice-T - 6 in the Morning (1986) NWA - Boyz in the Hood (1987) Trips me out how many cats give Eazy props and overlook Ice-T until u bring him up then they're like, "Oh yeah".
My first mixtape was a Dre swap meet mix tape with these and others : 6 in the morning Freaky Tales Boyz in the hood If it ain't ruff (Ren) I'm your pusha Some BDP Some Rakim for good measure. I was young enough that Freaky Tales made my stomach queasy.
+Larry Reediter lol it started out with me just tryna test out my will power and it was taking longer to find the perfect scene so I was just like fuck this but now the longer I go the more powerful I feel like on some I'm not even a regular man shit no more haha I'm fuckin superman out this bitch lmao!
+lonely wanderer lmao bruh I feel you but if you can make it to a month life changes haha all of a sudden girls wanna hit you up sending pics on snapchat n shit lol it's like temptation starts to pop up everywhere n I think it's the fact that I still stick to no fap is why I feel so great, I'm waiting for a specific girl that's why but the shit is crazy bro fuckin crazy and quite intriguing haha I'm finding out some shit about this world lmao!
MC Breed & DFC - Ain't No Future In Yo Frontin' was the drive by anthem in my hood in LA. That gangster whistle in the song was a warning to what was coming haha!
Comtpton Most Wanted, "music to the driveby",classic.Everytime you hear these west coast legends, they all say they were influenced by the east coast, particularly Run DMC.
I don't understand why people including MC Eiht, continue to knock on early west coast hip-hop/electro-funk. Egyptian Lover, Timex, LA Dream Team is what was going on at the time. It's a part of that history. And i personally think it was great music.
I love it all as well. Especially being from LA. I think because Eiht was always mad as fuck when he was young and he didn't really relate to it. Needed some aggressiveness. Respect to Eiht tho.
+Orlando Molina hes not really knocking it, he's just specifying what was real rap and just like pop. like the difference between nikki stuff vs boog brown rhapsody etc. great music, i agree, but it is what it is, that was not rap music! it was never DMC or even beastie boys!
unknown dj, dj slip, professor X = XMEN !!! techno/electro rap! i have their vinyl and play that everyday! this is some cool history right here!! wow didnt know eiht was this close to those cats! jeahhhhhh (as mc eiht would say).
DJ Unknown was putting out some of the Original "X-men" (not the comics) techno tracks. The music was and is still so futuristic that Marvel should get at Unknown.
He deserves WAY more credit than he gets he's one of the best and originals😈
"Growing up in the hood" and "The hood took me under" are fucking classics.
One thing I'll say about MC Eiht...he always put the consequences of the situation he rapped about near the end of each song he did
Lonny Ka-bal Damn fam, ice been bumping him since 89 and you brought up an interesting fact. Good lookin out.
Facts bro "Was it worth it I always wondered? Maybe if the hood didn't take me under." Thats the final verse of Hood Took Me.
Ice-T style
duh..lol..u must be a teenager?...I could've told u that back in the 80s
@@BLACKPowerSupremePunishment You have the writing style of a teenage schoolgirl.
These Eiht interviews are a treat. He really knows his history and has a great memory.
Eiht is a legend. Eiht is an OG. Been a fan for a long time. I appreciate these long, well said interviews Vlad's having with him. I hope at some point Vlad asked him about m.A.A.d city.

lol "sorry to interrupt you"... I don't hear Vlad say this almost ever...gotta respect an OG
Love MC Eiht interviews
Same
#respect
Nothing but respect for the OG dropping jewels.
word. he's a don.
Man, there was a point in my life, in the early and mid nineties when Eiht was my #1 favorite M.C. He's still in my top ten. Love that Vlad shows respect with these longer than normal interview segments. But, next we gotta talk about the DJ Quik beef.
Music ll Drive By is a masterpiece.

If You A Real Eiht Fan You Know His Favorite Word After "Geah" Is "Basically"
Yup

Basically!
WeirdArtSociety Fox im a big mc eiht fan

Facts
The scratching on those early CMW albums was tight as fuck. I miss rap tracks that scratch dope verses to make the chorus/hook.
Album cover of music to driveby is one of best rap covers of all time
Eiht is every interviewers dream lol close your eyes & you can picture the scenes he talks about
MC Eiht, u deserved an Oscar for "Streiht up Menace". Your music still better than what's now playing on the radio now. N 2 Deep, 8 IZ Enough, and This is a Gang. Still banging.
Such a dope interview. The history is necessary. MC Eiht one of the greats!
'music to driveby' was decent but 'we come strapped' was my favorite c.m.w. album. Geah!
Peace to MC Eiht for bigging up Ice Cube ✌🏾️✌🏾✌🏾
Cain was in Menace Vlad...You mean Tre
+raheem hunter lol I know right
+raheem hunter how you gonna call him dumb and white but you watching his interviews lol smh
He was nervous... 😂
+Hasani O He was in the movie too tho. He was A Wax
+Young Chris20 I was talking about Menace II Society.
He came from the greatest generation was born in 1988 so i was a product of these guys love hearing stories from back in these guys days
Love hearing Eiht talk about the roots of the west and his beginnings. Another good interview, Vlad.
I laugh constantly whenever Eiht talks. All his scenes in Menace were hilarious. "Yo homey you need some help?" Still one of my favorite rappers ever...
"Love And Happiness" was playing when Kane, O-Dogg, n A-Wax got that Payback.
I wanna see eiht talk about working on menace to society
We be over chills house chillin 😂🙏🏿
Ottoh Peterh who is chill???
@@macadon041 Another member of Comptons Most Wanted
great interview Vlad. MC Eiht one of my top 5 rappers of all time
"straight up menace" theme music most definitely. I remember being in Riverside county jail with Eiht in the mid 90s he kept it real then and still real now.
Man I use to walk to middle school bumping this dude tapes, death threats was my shit
One of the most real and honest interviews I've seen from a west coast rapper. I grew up in Eiht's era. He's on point.
Chicago was real big on Mc Eiht back in the days, Really the whole Compton Movement.We always respected The West Coast gangsta Rap cause we could relate to The Gangs affiliation even though we had our own gangs in Chicago.I've been a fan since the Blue Tape
Detroit too!

He was in Eazy's video We Want Eazy. Most don't realise this though.
of course vlad had to bring up ice cube
Even Eiht respect cube

I remember in a old source Magazine back in the 90's... EiHT was a honor student and still reppin his hood....classic shit!
I used to fuck with Eiht's music heavy when I was a young bol. He made some of the most violent music out there. That's why I like drill music, it's like that crazy ass west coast gangbanging drive by music from the early nineties, but in a new generation with a different sound.
You can lie that the Og drive by music will always be better than drill
Ruhid Mohamad I don't know man, I think old MC Eiht would be proud of tracks like Bussin by BuDoubble and Kill Him by Chief Keef
I'm glad I wasn't the only person who connected Eiht with Drill music...haha.
Lootroq well we will never know
most og's don't really like the new school stuff but i wouldn't be that surprised if some of them did
This is a intelligent brother ...Grew up with MC EiHT when I was in the Army back in the day.....Meaning I got down on his Music..I'm from Detroit!
So is DJ Unknown. Baldwin near Van Dyke and Canfield. Roots.

Now I understand why Tommy Wright III mentioned Mc Eiht in context with Mississippi.
How many of ya'll know about Tommy Wright UG Memphis Legend?
Just check: Tommy Wright III - 4 Corners pt. 2
didn't Snoop write a song about him on Dead Man Walkin
U mean about T3 ?
Don't know but I doubt that.
Corpses2Dinner Tommy used to try to come up off the Bone crew ny hating on em
He went in on Thuggish Ruggish Bustaz.
Well he had his reasons, they talked shit about da M. Just listen to the lyrics
Corpses2Dinner that was with Triple Six, had nothing to do with Tommy III
It's A Compton Thang was there 1st album
steelz4ever Late Nite Hype Geah!!!
"It's a Compton Thang" for the 1st album. "Straight Checkin Em" was the 2nd. "Music To Drive-By" was CMW's 3rd album.
I thank MC Eiht for telling Vlad's face he respects cube for the way
exactly because Vlads ass be hoping they say somethin negative about cube. But no! He gave respect to Cube!
+Lcd4lbad agree
+Lcd4lbad the reason he wants that so that so he put that in the title and get more view for more money, the more the merrier
+E plus Vlad is a Cube hater. it's deeper than just views. Vlad seriously is jealous of Ice Cube
Lcd4lbad - Huh? Didn’t Vlad say Ice Cube was better in his prime than Jay-Z in his prime? He even expressed how he liked the raps n’ whatnot. I don’t know what y’all are on about.
Mceiht one of a handful of double OG's to teach Vlad lessons bout certain important facts of that time geeah legend..😎
CMW the first blue tape damn wish I still had it shit was hard
Eigt was cold!! Looks like Ja Rule big brother!
Ha😂😂😂😂😂😂 lmao
Yo for some reason he reminds me of ja rule. Some of hes expressions and the way he talk.
*Eiht
I thought I was the only one who thought that haha Ja Rule is the poor man's MC Eiht
He does!!!
I'm not really into anymore Gangsta Rap but, 'Music to Drive By' was a masterpiece, on a number of levels and I wasn't even a CMW fan.
STRAIGHT UP MENACE...My favorite rap song of all time. Jeah
Im from the South Bronx and a big fan of CMW even when they dissed us i couldn't get mad cause they was to dope...EIHT is my nigga
"It's a Compton Thang, Straight Checkn 'Em, Music to Driveby, We Come Strapped, Death Threatz" Classic albums!!!
Ice-T - 6 in the Morning (1986)
NWA - Boyz in the Hood (1987)
Trips me out how many cats give Eazy props and overlook Ice-T until u bring him up then they're like, "Oh yeah".

David Duarte ice-T was the true OG
Folks say Boyz N The Hood is the first hood movie but Colors with Sean Penn came out first.

This Is Got To Be One Of The Best If Not "THE BEST" Interview On VladTV
Words from the Menace himself 💯
MC Breed & DFC - Ain't No Future In Yo Frontin' was the drive by anthem in my hood in LA. That gangster whistle in the song was a warning to what was coming haha!
One of Vlad's best segments ever!
+Frank Nitti Agreed! Big fucking smile on my face

Vlad needs to realize Cube is the best gangsta rapper ever and no west coast artist will ever diss him
Blac585 you fuckin kidding? cypress hill dissed him real hard and it was no joke
nobody really cared that beef was over to quick
Cause cube had to settle shit and save his punk ass before he got merked
yeah right merked by who only beef Cube had that could have led to that was with Kam
Music to Driveby my Fav Hip Hop album🎶💙. #MCEiht

I was watching menace 2 society that was a great movie mc eiht played the shit out of that role

***** I thought he was too until some old hip hop page on Facebook reminded me of him and I searched him up after listening to CMWs diss.
Last time I heard about Tim Dog he was scamming white women outta money on Facebook lmao
One of the WestCoast HOF Rapper.... MC 8! Interview was Legendary
No mistaken, I bring home greens, fuck bacon!!
Like the interview I'm a fan of mc eiht a Westcoast mc that makes sense and made good music.
I swear, Vlad sounds like the founder of Khan Academy, Sal.
Hell yeah.

DJ Unknown was putting out some of the Original "X-men" (not the comics) techno tracks. The music was and is still so futuristic that Marvel should get at Unknown.
funny how how old rap cats sound more articulate and light weight square.
So being articulate and being able to convey oneselfs correctly is “square”....interesting......interestingly stupid
