22 years later, "Recognize" still bangs hard.
ohh yeah!
Yessir 💯 It is forever nice!
Classics are just that- classic
funny you mention it, premier has a channel he goes over these old beats he's made. Just put out his Recognize one today lol
Timeless
“Too hard for MTV, Not black enough for BET, Just let me be”
This is still a certified classic in 2022
It'll ALWAYS be a banger!!
HEO YEAAAA
Danny up in here!! Your Pixel 6 views change after the update??😳😳😆😆
Hell yeah! One of my favorite preemo beats outside from gang starr. Jadakiss should make an album with preemo, they sound amazing together
@Aaron9 jada alone ...hes the best one
@@lewisalba7825 really?? so how about those classic back 2 back with styles p huh???
@@masejaden4235 he can definitely be featured on the album, but hes still the one most would want a whole album with preem
I don't even like Swizz but he was nice on 'WATS'. His drums bang like crazy and I gotta give him props for the overall sound of the album. But Premo produced "Recognize" and not only made the best track on the album but my favorite Lox song ever.
@@mk-ultramags1107 too much 4 mtv not black enough 4 B.E.T just let me be.... Kiss.
I aint gon hold you..I have literally never stopped playing this masterpiece since 2000.
Timeless music always gets play. Real recognize real.
''i gave you power'' should def be on this series
I agree 👌🔥🔥🔥
That song is amazing
Now I know you couldn't wait to hear kiss over PREMIER !
“Kill you on tape, then watch it over a beer”
We were definitely waiting for it to happen! Didn’t disappoint either
One of my favorite joints ever. The way Kiss sets it off, Sheik verse is underrated, Styles verse was crazy...the way Preem lets the beat rock at the end...Classic
This one of them ones!..Sheek verse underrated
Sheek killed that shit!
I'm black and deadly and my burner just like me!!!!
@@CharlieWingate1 "Through 9th grade I didn't go to High School. I went to School high."
@@JarvisPen classic line
Love this track. Styles verse is god level
That Styles verse gives me chills to this day 💯
Father, Son and Holy Ghost of rap 3in 1....
“Two is better than one, it’s three of the lox”
Ima stay in this Hell...and I got a gun to Blaze if you play with the L dot O dot X dot at the end!
All his verse’s are
super classic. definitely one of Preem's best beats ever
Man, was just wondering if this track was gonna be a part of the So Wassup series! Classic shit.
"...don't get it, twisted y'all..." 💪🏼💯
They way Preemo did the scratches on Eve's voice at the end of the song was hella dope
Yooo made props to the editor with how he weaved the background music into the Lox music and back to background. Smooth as hell. Not sure man are going to appreciate that right there. Just wanted to give him or her their due.
5:11-5:17
3:00-5:07
DJ Premier is the greatest producer of all time.
One of my favourite beats of all time
Only if I could watch him scratch this with them live...
@@RP0392 so true
Man you need to make a movie with all the story’s you have I bet it would be crazy af
A 10h series!
Top 5 Preemo beat for me! 🙌🏾
I still get chills sometime hearing SP verse. shyt some of the realest and at times most relatable lines ive heard
Its unbelievable. Lyrical perfection
I've been waiting for this one. Probably my favourite LOX song. All 3 verses are gods tier. The Eve scratch at the end is pure eargasm.
This beat is still SO HARD! Mix with Jay Z “So Ghetto” in da club to keep ish extra gritty ‘n grimy!
I am gonna steal that
So ghetto too fast
@@djbrizzletrill So Ghetto is 93bpm. Recognize is 92bpm.
@@djbrizzletrill yes it is but “Recognize” can be sped up and or you can zigga in on the drum intro of “So Ghetto”
so ghetto goes crazy
"Now I know y'all couldn't wait to hear Kiss over Premier" 🔥🔥🔥 All Time Classic!
What a fuckin record! We played that album constantly in 98/99 - this was always one of my favourite! Soooo much #Respect Premo! RIP to GURU
Hope we gonna see about None Of Yall Betta too
as a old computer nerd who loves hip hop, this is just the best.
"ok computer, run it back'
LOVE IT
One of my favourite Hip Hop tracks period, not just for the LOX, but period. It goes so hard.
Best in the game hands down ! Stayd together for over 20 years and still making bangers ! Fucking love the lox 💛 uks biggest lox fan here 👊 LOX D BLOCK RUFF RYDERS r.i.p DMX ❤❤❤❤
Hell when he broke down Eves part at the end was even more fire! The ending was crazy! DJ Premier my favorite DJ and my favorite beat maker!
Listening to this at the gym right now, I’ve always loved this song and beat. Man, you have so many incredible beats I don’t think I could make a list of my favorite top 10 … please never stop. “ watch how it go down and the 6th sense “ are two amazing tracks that came to mind while writing this. Much love Premier 🙏🏽💪🏽
"watch how it goes down" is nuts! I don't know what was going on in his head when he made that, but i thank him for it. Thanks Preem!!!
Much love for The LOX. I love their early work, including their work with Puff.
The LOX We Are The Streets album is a classic to me. Recognize is definitely one of my favorite tracks on the album. 🔥🎤💪🏻
Their debut is also a Classic
Money Power & Respect
I was playing that album the day in May 2001 when I caught a murder case. Still in jail now just lucky they gave me a laptop
@@bluesman7865 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Ryde or die chick was and still is that song
Thank you Premier for providing the soundtrack to my youth and years as a Young Man!
Thank you Preemo, this beat has been in my head for years and I could never recall who was rapping over this track. No better relief than getting that mental block out of me.
This is my favorite Preemo beat of all time, I'm glad to get the background on this track. Extremely slept on beat!
One of the greatest beats of all time!
I love these episodes.
Ideas for the next ones.
1.Militia remix rakim and W.C
2. Nas is like
3. Ras Kass Golden Child.
Thank you for the hip hop history lesson.
Goldyn Child was Dope AF too
So glad your breaking down this song
Saw Gang Starr live when I was 10 years old. Huge influence on my life. These episodes are some of the best Hip Hop content on TH-cam by far.
One of the purest hiphop records. Eastcoast hard body bop!
We are the streets - The Lox. Top 5 albums all time for me.
Один из любимых треков у LOX!!!
DJ Premier is the greatest producer of all time in the entirety of hip hop. So many classic beats…. This one is one of my favorites tho. Such an offset piano sample but works so well.
'I'm black and deadly and my burner's just like me' ... Sheek melts this tho..My fave L.O.X joint of all time 💯
One of the stand out tracks on the We Are the Streets Album. Definitely would love to hear more Premo production for the Lox.
Goose bumps when that beat drops
Always loved that piano sample on this joint. Props Primo.
Respect the Floppy Y’all.
💾🔥💾🔥💾🔥
Dj premier is on a level all on his own premier is down right hip-hop
LOX is the best raw Hip Hop group trio or more to give you that street heat.
Recognize and ain't nobody better are solidified preme joints from the lox
CLASSIC SONG, STILL BANGS HARD IN 22' !
I swear b4 God that this beat is timeless!!! Not to mention it's my fav Lox track ever. I can and do jam this track on repeat every chance I get!
One of the hardest beats Premo ever produced!!!🔥🔥🔥
One of my fav lox joints A lot of people sleep on this classic song.
I can listen to these stories all day long...
I'd love to hear the stories behind some of the Bumpy Knuckles tracks or Blaq Poet/Screwball.
We are the streets is my favorite lox album
Still a classic to this day! 🔥
Father, Son, and Holy Ghost of Rap...3 in the 1 #LOX
My top 3 Premier beat. The vocal intro and "rec rec rec rec it" outro are just out of this world, as well as the sample flip.
Recognize was a crazy joint. That ruff sample with Eve's sample was genuis by the Big Legend DJ Premo!
Tell us a story behind a million and one questions by Jay Z, pleeeeeeaaaase
When I copped my doubles on wax, and heard the intro, I knew that it was going to be juggled. Not a tableist or a battle DJ by any means, but making an attempt to beat juggle was where it was at. Dang, Premier, another one of my fav. productions. Salute!!!
This song is a CLASSIC. The hard Preemo drums over the slower type melodies like this one or like Joe’s shit is real remix always do it for me. Throw in the Lox, who all did their thing, and you have a certified classic. One of my favorites.
RESPECT THE DJ! #REALHIPHOP
"If I knew heaven had a ghetto that was sweeter than here
Ya know the P'll pack his bags and just leave next year
But i got a son to raise so ima stay in this hell
And i got a gun to blaze if you play with the L dot O dot X dot at the end
We da niggas thats gonna leave with the pot at the end....."
P's verse on this is amazing
Preemo 🔥
What a beat this is! Flawless, energy, head bopping, constantly on rewind. Even to this day, this rocks. Can't wait to hear MILITIA and IT'S ALL REAL
Dr dre chronic 2001 & LOX we are the streets were my favorite albums at that time much love
Dig into that Jay-Z catalog my guy. Peace, you’re an absolute legend
One of Premo's most stellar . . .
Damn this song brings back so many good memories. I just moved to Atlanta when this album was released and remember listening to this track daily as I drove around the city.
one of the best if not the best culture series ever!
One of my favourite songs ever.
I listen to this at least 4 times a week still.
This is probably in my all time top 10. Perfect track.
i saw "Recognize" and immediately stumbled getting over here !
One of my all time favorite track from Premier. Glad to So Wassup episode about this gem.
Man's still running this album 22 bludclaart years later!! 💉💉
