PEOPLE'S PARTY WITH TALIB KWELI
People's Party is a weekly interview show hosted by Talib Kweli and Jasmin Leigh. Guests range from the biggest names in hip-hop to global entertainers to the most progressive minds moving our culture forward. The audio podcast is available on Apple and Spotify.
Finesse flow is so natural... it literally sounds like he's rapping when he speaks.
one of my favorite voiced&flows across 40 some years
Finesse is so underrated as both a lyricist and producer! He’s so dope!
The Awakening is a stone cold CLASSIC
Rakim, Kool G. Rap, Kane, LL Cool J, KRS One, Slick Rick & Lord Finesse basically laid the Blueprint for every lyrical rapper that came afterwards. If you listen to any lyricist from 1990 - Present day you will find elements of influence from one of these Mc's...
“Keep the crowd listenin, I’m so magnificent, it even says finesse on my birth certificate”….
Lord Finesse is a true legend!!
Lord Finesse was KING of the punch lines. It's a shame , too underrated. Peace to Talib for the interview.
Well deserved
I can listen to Finesse punch all day
Respect Lord Finesse.
Definitely a gem. Id like to see more of Lord finesse
“I get ahh’s and ooh’s, not boo’s, cause I’m real smooth. Fuckin with finesse is the wrong career move..”
Smooth rap maestro wild like a psycho, step to this and get sparked like a light show.
Bro, i HOPE you mentioned the Percee P battle at some point during the interview.. talk about one of the most magical golden era moments caught on tape
Damn this man made dudes spit they best....very very very underrated a true HipHop legend amongst legends Lord Finesse
Ced-Gee & Kool Keith from UltraMagnetic flowed with the triple cadence as well.
Keith is the GOAT!
You better step to the next man, because the greatest soccer player couldn’t kick it like Finesse can. 😎💯
I'm gonna watch the full interview right now but Lord Finesse is one of the greatest to ever do it. Just from this you can see this man is a lyricist. This interview and all the Preemo interviews have made these last few weeks an amazing Birthday month for Hip Hop. Thank you.
Outstanding interview! Lord Finesse is definitely a true Emcee who represents the essence of the art form of Emceeing! Essential Elements of HIP-HOP! Talib Kweli must interview O.C. too. Peace & Respect.
DITC!!!! The dopest crew ever!!! Only Juice Crew and Hit Squad are close!!
First Redman, then Ali Shaheed and now Finesse … thanks Talib and Jasmin !
Peace from Brussels
Rhymes stay fresher than a virgin in a refrigerator...🔥🔥🔥
He has a point that today's rhyming/battling is so predictable. Everyone is shit scared to be who they really are on M.I.C
That's not what he said. He said that when something IS predictable in modern battle rap you'll have people predicting the punch etc. but that doesn't mean it's more predictable now on average lol
Thats not what he said.....He's talking about in Smack URL type leagues when cats battle....in the middle of their rounds when doing a set up for a punchline...the opponent we'll say your punchline BEFORE or with you if it was predictable! Example: if im battling Charlie Clips and said..."Look at you overweight ass hole/ I bet when you were young your friends called you ....." and Clips will look at the crowd and say "Fatso"! To show his opponents punchline was predictable.
@@TheSupremeDunk Them battle rappers would smoke Kweli something serious though
"Now its the dictator who's style is greater. It's the man with more wild flavors than mu fuckin NowNLaters"
One thing I liked about Finesse is that he always had a cool arrogance in his vocal presence. Like on his song, "You know What I'm About," he spits in a smooth conversational style that drips with arrogance and conceit; it's as if he's saying, "c'mon yo, how many times I gotta tell y'all... you can't fuck wit me, yo" in every bar.
I don’t stutter I’m so butter like no other word I’m that funky type of soul brother.
You know I be slamming suckers, when I’m not on the mic I’m making more moves than a dance instructor.
I have no passion for rhymers
nowadays i come with more styles than fashion designers
lord finesse in my personal top 3 greatest mcs of all time
his track S.K.I.T.S. will always be one if the greatest tracks in hip hop - timeless - educational
and his rap battle with percy pee is 🔥
That first album was an all time classic
I’m smooth and wise l, skills I utilize, lyrics so advanced you’d think my brain was computerized.
Lord finesse interviews are the best
Mad brothers know his name.... yeah it's him again... mad brothers know his name.... Finesse... underrated always
I got it locked like a warden, rap without Finesse is like the NBA without Jordan. 💯
"Lord Finesse in effect cause I rhyme hard"
I lounge and rock tunes the way I be saving the day get me a cape and a costume.
Props to my buddy Jet who had me getting to talk to Lord Finesse on the phone. He was so sweet and chill.
Thank You!!!
I hold the title because I’m a cool champ, if rap was money you’d be rated as a food stamp.
"Rap is an art"
I stand ahead of them the smooth rap veteran I relieve any crowd like a dose of excedrin.
Smoke DZA reminds me of Lord Finesse.
Lord Fineese is the king of "like.." in his rhymes.
I love Rhyme Schemes in Rap Music
When I 1st heard funky technician ... I was like ...YO .. that shit different..... Still is
How come UPROXX never makes closed captions available on their videos? They really help hearing impaired people follow the conversation, but they never have that feature available. I'm beginning to think UPROXX hates deaf people.
Listen up, young rappers.
I kick rhymes with beats that slam with force, I’m so gifted my name should be Santa Claus.
🔥
Brothers got game, but Finesse is twice as nice. They need cars, all I need is a mic device. 😎💯
Return of the Funky Man ist still in my heavy rotations
Respect the architects.
I'm the type/that'll give any man a chance/to come correct/before leaving in an ambulance
Lord finesse
Agree with him about some rappers today going for punchlines every line. Cardi B’s ghostwriters I’m looking at you.
"If it ain't Fat Joe then it must be Lord Finesse"
The Funky Man...bars and bars
💯💯💯
Yes!!
I wonder is he gonna speak on Mike Smoothe. I guess he was the dj. But I'm pretty sure most if not all them scratches on the 1st album was Premo.... Then after that, dude just disappeared. Can't really say he was needed obviously. Lol
If Lord Finesse came out in the 80s he would've been a top tier MC like KRS Kane & G Rap
Lord was like 1991-92 shit was crazy.
@@traviscarter1023 yea he dropped his debut in '90 but jus came out too late.. let that debut drop 3 years earlier Finesse would be highly talked about today
He came out in 89', his 1st album was released early 1990
Awesome 👍🏽😎
Finesse is top 5 all day
Can't wait til Monday Who got next thts tht SHT ReaRealHip-Hop 101 tht Head knock Whr u At Nuffsaid 🔥💯 Rastafari 🔥💯 Rastafari 🔥💯 Rastafari 🔥💯🔥 2Up2Dwn

#FunkyTechnician
I find myself quoting his lines almost daily or every other day
you don’t
@@bourdieufan7433 I do. I grew up studying him. So His rhymes and lines could pop up in my head before I even realize the title of the song. Same with Big L's punches and other rappers lyrics as well.
@@slimischillin7753 feel you man. i just be doing whatever and a random line just pops up in my head
@@Bramv facts
Toast MC's, eat 'em up with margarine
They're called multisyllable rhymes
Big L, what a beast he was
big daddy kane tho
Finesse is genius. the end.
I think everyone who is a beginner sounds similar
I kick game because yo my facts be real, I’m eating steaks while you fucking with happy meals.
You can tell Finese don’t even fux with Kwel
Funky Technician
I’m stupid but what if someone took a spiral cipher and applied that to rhyme scheme? Like if you were to go like 2 syllables 3 syllables 4, but format that in a spiral.
you dig me like fossils
This comment section for the win 🏆😁
DITC!!!!!!
I been sayin that Lord Finesse was the first one to say Deadass
you were wrong
@@bourdieufan7433 Who said it then because alot of my guys from the boogie down say shit like that.
@@traviscarter1023 you live in maine, you do not know anybody in the ‘boogie down’
@@bourdieufan7433 How the fuck you gonna tell me who I know and don't know. For the same reason you live in Rhode island how about that. Me on the other hand I can go out in the BX anytime and I'm good it's all love I don't know about you family.
Jay Z definitely specialize in this too
Everybody ran wit Finesse flow...Big L , Ma$e , Fabolous , Lloyd Banks , Cassidy and Jadakiss
Bring back the MC
A punchline every bar is overdoing it. It sounds forceful; there are other games you can play between the bars to build up to an awesome punchline. Doing it bar after bar at times can be anticlimactic. If its gonna be every bar it better be brilliant
I’m all for going down memory lane but I came up in that era too and I saw over 90% of those punchlines coming even from you Mr. Finesse. Good vid tho
Todays modern rap of ridiculous . Foumders neeed to take reposonisibility
I really do not like Talib for his tether politics. But he raps great. But I don't deal with him outside music
@King of EBLA he is against reparations for Foundational Black Americans. He is an immigrant and is only here because of us. Yet he speaks against our interests.
I used to like Finesse until a few years ago...
@King of EBLA He sued Mac Miller for rapping over a beat of a song he did, not to bring up old stuff
@@mithritades so why you mad at him for that?
@@cibida1 who said I was mad?
@@mithritades ok. Why don’t you like him for doing something he should have done?
@@cibida1 Facts if Eminem did it he wouldn't have no problem. Now this cat got caught up frontin in the game. You can catch them in the grand scheme of things doing as we called it back in the day fakin Jack's they call it cap now. Why did you stop liking a dope MC.
