Absolutely. And I'm not just saying that because I'm from the Golden Era, I'm saying that because factually it is. Because like he said it was The First of its kind on mainstream radio that was the Blueprint for everything to be able to come out and expand Hip Hop after that, whether you liked what did come after or not, old or new. And that's why the Symphony is the greatest posse cut ever. And all the rappers came off in their own way that exemplifies that time of Hip Hop.
Thanks Craig G, for finally clearing who that unknown person was in the "In control pic! For me it was a toss between Tragedy and Fly Ty! It kinda hit me a few years later that it could be Ace's Dj when I saw a photo of him on the back of The Master Ace album "Take A Look Around"
I remember buying the Marley Marl In Control Vol. 1 cassette back in 1988. My fave Juice Crew Allstar was Shanté. I bought every Cold Chillin' release and every Prince Paisley Park release. I was about that!
He never mentions Tragedy. Trag was probably the illest rhymer. On that song "Juice Crew All Stars" Tragedy was like 13 or 14 years old and had the best bars on that song. Craig G and Trag "Live and Direct from the House of Hits" is a classic. Maybe just a oversight. Also that beat for Dropping Science he's talking about with the Lou Donaldson sample. Easy Moe B made the Craig Mack song "Flavor in your Ear" beat trying to emulate that sound because he loved that Droppin Science beat so much.
I can't believe he was so young! I thought he was a grown man when I saw the Symphony video! I loved Marley Marls beats, and I bought Craig G's first album "Now that's more like it" bake in 1991. The best song on there was "Take the Bait" which still bangs 30 years later!
had that album in 88 when i was in brooklyn tech in fort greene...damn i shoulda never pushed that dean down the stairs lol( but he grabbed me by the throat and u can't let someone do that at 14)...then went to eastern district h.s. on grand ave. during the riots of 90...got to meet the great Al sharpton ( and by the way i'm irish/puerto rican) and still have much love for Rev.Al ..stands up for all ppl...peace
To me this man deserves more credit as a MC because he is a beast on the mic. And on a side note I have a you tube channel type in Russell Mills May 22, 2017.
Thomas Fulmore He's still the weakest nigga in the crew regardless. His name rung bells and I like Shan somewhat but he is the wackest in Juice Crew. And to say Shan is the king of hip hop is beyond laughable.
You must be frm Rhode Island or Nebraska saying some wild shit like that lol....Shante is better than he is....I'd listen to TJ Swan sing an entire album before I sit through 2 Shan songs
@@carltonfisk7174 for someone that don't like MC Shan .his name is coming out your mouth.. He can care less about you niggas.. Nobody know you niggas or care about you niggas . so shut up and get your life in order nigga
It's so funny that he said that about his song Droppin Science. I agree with him about the original which just had the James Brown sample. I loved that one, but then on the Marley Marl album they added the other beat and I hated it.

The symphony is the best posse song ever.
EVER!!!!
Absolutely!!!
Yep!

💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯
14 and this is all old news to me. Love the juice crew the best hip hop clique to ever exist.
Duck alert was my favorite! Craig G seems very down to earth! Humble!
It's good to see the brother is still around despite whatever he is doing
he a crack head, sleeping on people's couches because he a bum
Craig G. A legend in Hip Hop! SALUTE!

I feel like pulling out my WBLS tape when Craig G and Masta Ace freestyled over YZ's "In control of things".
I remember buying the Marley Marl In Control Vol. 1 cassette back in 1988. My fave Juice Crew Allstar was Shanté.
I bought every Cold Chillin' release and every Prince Paisley Park release. I was about that!
I would like to hear all of Cool G Raps bars at the end Graig G talked about
such a huge fan of the cold chilllin label back then.
Respect to Craig G
Classic

EastOaklandRyder510 The irony: Craig Mack didn't like that beat, either!
EastOaklandRyder510 trag wasn’t with them like that
Lotta interesting Facts...
big respect to the OG
he's look ok. got slimmed down again, well done!
so we can't get a Craig G / Masta Ace lp?
Because Craig g is a dope addict.

Because of your race....it's odd to have love or Rev Al? Nah B...shit besides that Tawanna Brawley shit, he was aiight
yes he stayed in p.r. for a few mths in jail fighting for vieques, he's alright w/ me
You went from one of the best schools in NYC to a notorious rough school, what was the biggest difference?
battle him...i dare u
craig g might win a freestyle battle because he is desperate for money for his crack habit.
+Order of ICC Productions hater
