I’m a metal fan to the core. However, rap in the 90’s were very special and can’t be duplicated. Too bad Cube and Mack 10 couldn’t get alone. We could’ve been blessed with more music.

@@dakingltroyproductofdade3579 My boy had an S10 with a cap and 12 12” Lightning subs and something like 10,000 watts of PPI amps. This song beats SO MOTHER FUCKING HARD in a setup like that. It’s one of the most basic, deepest, gnarliest Minimoog basslines of all time, and Cube was fucking hard at that time. Still all the NWA cred.

The east coast west coast beef was a crazy period in hip hip history. There were some incredible tracks that came out during that time no doubt..this being one of them. All verses were 🔥..Cube is a legend, Mack 10 was dope..WC’s flow was superb
It's about dope lyrics and delivery. Nothing of today's rap hits as hard and sounds just as raw as the opening to the uncensored version of this song. Prime Cube right here.
What does the man have to do with the song I don't get it anyways I'm sorry I'm just probably thinking negative so sorry that he's one of my favorite artist ever Ohio
@@magick8288 You're saying that like it would be easy to make an album as gangster, lyrical & as revolutionary as Bow Down, Lol. It wouldn't be an easy task my dude.
Esta canción la escuché por primera vez en el ejército prestando mi servicio militar. Un cabo tercero que era mi comandante la ponía para levantarnos a las 4 de la mañana y la ponía en los parlantes a toda madre💥💯🔥.. en pocas palabras una chimba como decimos en colombia...
Damn, this song makes me feel old but shit it still goes hard. One of the best rap songs from out the 90's period. This was the first rap song I ever learned all the words to lmao
DUB C's flow is so hypnotic. I put him in that category of MC's that have their own distinct style that you can't compare them to anyone else like Busta Rhymes, Baatin of Slum Village, ETC. Just natural flows and styles. He was the most under rated member for sure.
Damn straight. Cube & Dub still collaborate & tour all the time. But they've gotta reconnect with Mack 10. It's been way too long. I think I heard that Cube & Mack 10 aren't on the best of terms. Hopefully they'll put they're differences aside, so we can get a Bow Down Pt. 2.
the legend Yeah it was Cube’s wife’s brother Mack 10 said. He was talking slick to Mack & Cube wasn’t doing nothing about it smh so instead of Mack 10 doing some harm to homeboy him & Cube argued about it.
Too bad we'll never see a reunion, but gotta respect Ice Cube standing on business when it comes to family. Westside Connection was one of the best rap groups of all time.
Yea they are VERY underrated because idgaf in my book MACK 10 is more Gansta then Cube any day and Dub is a like my second best when it comes to this album, But MACK is the West coast ring leader when it comes down to him and Cube going heads up on this rap shit
Relativley new to the rap bandwagon. I'm normally metalhead. Can't stop listen to west coast classics on gta. I'm startin to really enjoy listenin to old style rap songs. Shoulda jumped on the wagon earlier.
I didn’t know English when I was back in the Dominican Republic back in in 2004 and my step brother send me a cd with song and I knew this song was a hit but a pecial one. Now in 2024 I still bow down to the realest crew from west west coast. 🙇♂️

I think 96 or 97, it was playing everyday on the school bus. We had nothing but that great 90s compressed swag.

Yep Nirvana was gone everything.

What's wrong with loving both genres 🤘💨😤
Youre allowed to listen to whatever you want whenever you want, you know that right?
most ppl dunno how big this song was in the 90's
So true!!! When this came out I begged my mom to buy it for me on tape lol. I was in 8th grade and had to have it for real though
Kompa Jessi this was my bros first cd. lol...

Gangsta rap made 'im do it!!
This is still a master banger and will stay that way for centuries to come! WESTSIDE CONNECT!!!
The way Cube threw the stack of 100’s and caught it with the other hand was cold
That Dub C verse 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

WC was always one of my favorite MC's from the west, he had such a good flow.
True that. I been ridin' with WC since Low Profile.
One of the best gangsta rap songs of the 90s hands down
I would do anything to travel back in time and see this live

Hell yeah. To see Westside Connection perform the whole Bow Down album, from start to finish, would be incredible.
Up in Smoke Tour. Oh, we did that!
Cube that nigga!! All the way from Philly, much love to the west!! LA to the Bay!!

One of the BEST Hip Hop Albums EVER
Westside Connection still slappin on this so called wrap today.Late 80&90s was straight up putting it down.
One of the hardest 🔥of the late 90s best Hip-hop. Still blasting this in 2022.
My older brother bought me this album for my 11th birthday in '96. Still have the same copy and still bump it at least a few times a month.
