God bless you!!! This is exactly what is on my mind everytime I listen to this song. I wish they could get together and redo the song with the assets, exposure, video/sound production quality and international artist affiliations that Nigerian musicians have today. It's just a real shame that they came out at the time they did - too early and way ahead of their time. Freestyle in particular would be a megastar rapper today. Much respect to the Trybes Record crew (along with the Plantashun Boyz and Remedies)...the pioneers of the modern Nigerian music scene.
i pity the guy (or girl) who referred to these guys as BLACK AMERICAN WANA BE'S. i should pull Davido and Wizzkid and their peers by their ears and make them sit down and watch this video. this was back when naija hip hop was about talent and drive, a desire to be heard and appreciated and not about multi million naira videos and auto tuned voices. truth is, either you can rap...or you can't. and when you get behind the mic, people know the difference. money can't buy talent..tell them i said it
You said it all. These guys and their peers then came well before their time. Raw talents, artistes and crew. Wow. All we have now are overrated pretenders with junk music.
Imagine if they chose the music genre indigenous to them as Davido and Wizkid did? I totally applaud them for mimicking New York rap so well in the sweltering heat of Lagos.
For these guys to have produced this tasty song at the period when Naija song is still evolving under crude music engineering techniques shows how talented they are.
This guys ..... they were way ahead of their time. and all well spoken. this was when artist went to school and did music. I remember seeing them in LUTH alot
@@teckzilla108 Dr. Sid was actually in UI, but was a frequent visitor to Unilag...How he still graduated as a Dental Surgeon is what me I don't understand
Still here in 2021. I remember watching this as a teenager and was blown away. Facts : they all went to school, they were too ahead of their time and their talent was raw without fear......no Facebook, no Instagram, no social media periodt but they still got the music out there. Fortunately some are still in the Nigerian music industry and would love them all have a come back. These were simpler times....chai
Way ahead of their time, pushed boundaries , paved the way without no social media platform. They did all of these as a rap group not singing. Respect the OG’s #facts
They were all students at the university of Lagos Akoka then.God bless them indeed for the raw talents they had displayed.Peoplefrom other African countries should see especially Ghanaians running their mouths so that they know that it's been a long time in this journey by Nigerians and our artists deserved the accolades that await them now.God bless these beautiful men and women! God bless Nigeria!
I came across this top hip-hop song again, 21 years later! This is still hot in September 2024!!! Now, that's hiphop!! Hiphop is going dead in Nigeria... Trybesmen, you guysrock!!!
Can't believe im still here in 2023. This song was fire back when i was still a kid. Its just so sad that these guys were hot before social media and also while the industry was literally just beginning.
This Guys started something in the erarly 2000's..they made Nigerians pay attention to Nigerian Music, they and the likes of plantation boy, remedies etc ...they paved the way for the ones thriving today...legends, all of them
Everytime I watch, I get tingling feelings, can those days be brought back? They all murdered this...No naija female rapper today will murder blaise of then damn! Freestyle was a beast! This reps where it all started, sad only Dr Did is still somehow doing music today
Feeling this in 2020 and I'm wondering how dreadlocks, Nudity, poor lyrics, and one beat for all became the new standard. This was when Education mixed with art was at its best! Kudos to the pioneers! @Ayo Shonaiya..e Don Tey 🤗😀
This tune can never fail from my memory..School was not an alternative or substitute for music, it was important as much as their love for music.This is raw passion standing the test of time.love and shout out to them all
Loooooooooooooooooool I actually remember this video. Was the first time seeing female rappers, I was so intrigued. Wow early 00's naija music was something
Wow, these are raw talent singing from the heart....music still fresh in my head.....WOW, we never know how good these guys was then, but now we can appreciate their talent, I'm blown away😱
Guys my take on this is that this song can be redone with the same group. Its crazy and beautiful. It will shake the world. I vote for a remix.
God bless you!!! This is exactly what is on my mind everytime I listen to this song. I wish they could get together and redo the song with the assets, exposure, video/sound production quality and international artist affiliations that Nigerian musicians have today.

We need this kind of sound, love for music and energy in 2024
When Nigerian rappers were so good.
Who is listening to this in 2024?🎉
Are U kiddin me ? I thought I was the only one
Me!!!
Meee
@@esegineefedeltaboy9079 only one because you own the song? Yeah right.. LMAO
@Omodollars LOLz😆 😂 but I used to be a very big fan of da trybe

Who referred to themselves as Black American wannabes? (Not even sure you're still alive, but hope you are)

Yeah Dr Sid was a student there. The rest were Unilag boys. Not sure about Blaise though, I think she was in UI.

@@dozie238 Aah yeah true I totally forgot about that. You are right. Dr. Sid was a UI student.
Timid d black one, talented dentist, him and Dr Sid.
Del graduated from Physics in OAU
Where are my generation that was banging this at home and in parties...

Still feeling this in 2023
I am still feeling this jam in February 2023
Way ahead of their time, pushed boundaries , paved the way without no social media platform. They did all of these as a rap group not singing. Respect the OG’s #facts
Someone arrest the guy who cooked this beat. Just like old wine, it's taste gets better with time. It's 2018 and u can't see songs like this no more.
Eldee The Don cooked the BEAT!!! eLDee Da Don
Still not over this song in 2018!
Do you guys notice there was no display of alcohol and no smoking of weed in this video. I so much miss my 9ja old skool rap songs.
They were all students at the university of Lagos Akoka then.God bless them indeed for the raw talents they had displayed.Peoplefrom other African countries should see especially Ghanaians running their mouths so that they know that it's been a long time in this journey by Nigerians and our artists deserved the accolades that await them now.God bless these beautiful men and women! God bless Nigeria!
No point for calling out Ghanaians here. Why some of una fans just like too much trouble?

The era of GOOD MUSIC
Here in June 2024..ahh memories
Good old days. I wish there was a time machine.
Still believe the best rappers Naija ever had are in this group (Freestyle & Eldee)
Even though M.I has dethroned them, I think they are still top 5
Facts
These guys made me to chop liver and express my musical side...Bless them!!🎉🎉🎉
Everytime I watch, I get tingling feelings, can those days be brought back? They all murdered this...No naija female rapper today will murder blaise of then damn! Freestyle was a beast! This reps where it all started, sad only Dr Did is still somehow doing music today
Blaise is just the bomb! No one can touch her
Gaddamn such a legendary group! Here in 2023 and still loving this song
Feeling this in 2020 and I'm wondering how dreadlocks, Nudity, poor lyrics, and one beat for all became the new standard.
This was when Education mixed with art was at its best! Kudos to the pioneers! @Ayo Shonaiya..e Don Tey 🤗😀
You nailed it.
Well said
Its like you deliberately became deaf to the lyrics of this song. Its not different from they do today.
The day Nigerian youth FULLY unite and bring different quality flavour , we shall RULE the world.
Kudos to all that made this banger happened,
2020 Am here to represent 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
Lagos is always the place...fond memories of growing up
Thanks to Cosmo fm enugu dem blast those oldskool jamz like crazy 🔥🔥🔥. I'm a fan of oldskool jamz
I was 14 when this song was released and I must say it made my teenage years, one of the best products ever from NAIJA.
Watching this in 2021. I miss these times
Can't believe this was 20 years ago. All this guys are in their early or mid 40s now.
Tribes men reminds me of my group 24yrs ago😢😢 The Genesis All Star
That lead dancer was definitely breaking it down … This song song way ahead of its time …damn …. pioneers 💯💯💯
WOW!!!!! I am here because I was watching the documentary, "Afrobeats." This song certainly was Straight FIRE!!!

This is the most perfect Nigerian song and music video I don’t care for anything else!😂
Nostalgia at its best. These guys were way ahead of their time
I remember when Music Africa was always playing this music on Silverbird Channel back in 2005.
Loooooooooooooooooool I actually remember this video. Was the first time seeing female rappers, I was so intrigued. Wow early 00's naija music was something
It's 2025 and song is still flames 🔥
Still a banga in 2021🤯
I'm so still dancing. And this is 2020.
2022 and I'm still here.. Thank God for life.
Love this so much! They each had their own unique and superb flows. Love how 2 shots brought his own dancers to represent Igboland
I'm probably the first to listen in 2018. come 3018, I'll still be the first. mad jam
Educated musicians
No cap 🙌
Oh my GOD educated guys doing what they know how to do best, timeless, I'm here grooving this masterpiece 2022 .
This song. I will never forget it. It is one of the best lyrics in the Nigerian Music industry. EVER GREEN!!!
This was the birth of proper rap music in naija!!!!
9ja from day one always close to America if not for America we are the best
Damn the talent was raw back then. This song could hold its own against ANY American rap song of the same era. It's a pit how Nigerian Hip Hop died.

Dudes, i have not been able to stop watching and listening to this. So tight....you call it virgin. These guys are revolutionaries.
Dope!!! 2024 till infinity
