Listening to Something New is still refreshing and to actually hear these lyrics reminds me of how we used to kick back in the days. Like I haven't heard someone say Go For Broke in years. Damn RIP Grand Daddy I.U.
I hate the you did not get the recognition you truly deserved. You are my favorite rapper from the old school. I’m 47yrs old. So this was my music. Love and will miss you.
On this sad day it's really nice seeing Grand Daddy I.U. get some love and recognition. Super dope emcee. So many great memories bumping this track as a kid. Hip-hop legend. God bless his soul. May he rest in peace. One love to Biz as well. 🙏🏽
The Voice may sound similar but content wise, I.U. was on another page. The Cadence is classic of the time period.Many emcees were using a cadence rhyme scheme pattern like that all up and down the east coast. He is also a Juice Crew member. He didn't steal the name or style from Big Daddy or Rakim. Grand Daddy I.U. is from Long Island. His 2nd album has been bitten off by madd mutha fuckas the world over cause of all the punch lines he had up in there. Grand daddy I.U. is one of the Best to ever do this. He's an originator not a duplicator. I listen to hip hop. The Brother is real hip hop. Real emcees keep the code: don't bite other niggaz rhymes. Grand Daddy I.U. That dude. And Finally for case and point....if Grand Daddy I.U. is a clone of Big Daddy Kane or Rakim...The Where does That put BIG L???? Does That make Big L a clone of LORD FINESSE????? Fuck Naw!!!!! God Forbid. BiG L is the Baddest ever from Harlem New York. Digging In The Crates Finest. Yes, His Style was like a Lord Finesse but more of the slight difference like Pepsi and Coke.
I had trouble falling asleep, so I decided to browse through some old school tracks and for whatever reason this one popped in my head and this is the first time in nearly 30 years that I am listening to this. I love this!
I'm old school and definitely heard his name but never heard any of his songs until now and damn this dude was lyrical as hell. Right up there with the best of his time. Suprised he didn't blow up.
@dimitrijackson9474 Gotcha, I'm from that era too and I always thought blowing up was being selling alot of records and being famous. No disrespect to dude but I'm a hip hop head and was deep into it and barely heard his name except when Biz Markie or maybe Big Daddy Kane Mentone him on their records. Again, no disrespect bc his shit is really good just saying it didn't "blow up" in my humble opinion but should have.
Grand Daddy IU was a beast "distinguished style that you can recognize And I fail to understand how the heck them guys Borrow and bite and not have a guilty conscience Then grab the mic and recite silly nonsense Battle the U, you musta flipped your lid Cause I take your pride like a stick-up kid"
If he is your uncle, let him know he is one of my favorite rappers and i still play this once a month. I would love to do a podcast interview with him.
WORD UP THE SUPER SUPREME UNDERRATED GOD/KING HEMPSTED STRONG ISLAND'S AWESOME & AMAZING SUPER DOPEST GRAND DADDY I.U. WOW. CHEERS & SALUTE MY DUDE. RIP!!![999]
Man!! I used to pump this song on my boom box until someone came ova my house and stole my cassette! Damn! Love the memories this video brought back! Thanx for uploading

Talk 2 ‘em
@Robert Drake Got a show with his daughter coming up in BK. She's signed to Big Dada records in the UK.

I know. It's kinda weird this is hella good
He did blowup.... All real MC's know this from back then too now!
@dimitrijackson9474 Blowing up meaning going gold, being all over the radio etc.
@@aldonova4082 Homeboy.... I'm from Harlem Nyc.... We made the phrase Gettin Money and Blowing up.... World famous!!!! I'm from the era

This song had more rhymes than any mc can produce in their careers. Real hip hop. I dare any "rapper" today to step their game up to try this.
Whats even better is he didnt have to be explicit or rarley even cuss through out the whole song
@@nookguy4318 All these so called rappers, Of like to see if they can make one song without cursing and have meaning to it.

Grand IU was slept on,A battle with Big Daddy Kane would have been legendary and epic!!!!
True
Kane would have ate this nukka for breakfast
Grand Daddy IU was dope but he couldn’t fuck with Kane if anything he kinda bit the Kane flow

Grand Daddy IU was a beast "distinguished style that you can recognize
And I fail to understand how the heck them guys
Borrow and bite and not have a guilty conscience
Then grab the mic and recite silly nonsense
Battle the U, you musta flipped your lid
Cause I take your pride like a stick-up kid"
Kevin Stern . ......
snhava rrenk
I recognized Big Daddy Kane's style that he bit without conscience 😒
@@KidsCalledmeMrGlass fair, but definitely room in hip hop for more rappers with that style.
@@sti3 naw, it was still copying him. 💩💩💩
Rest In Peace brotha. This song is a true classic just like you!
Granddaddy iu is my uncle
