Shyheim had superstar talent young. Guidance is so important. he literally had no one but the streets. That said he did a lot for the cards he was dealt.
as someone who was a teen when he was and an aspiiring actor/filmaker, its extremely difficult for even a trained actor to pull off a role and syheim with no acting training was able to look like a seaoned actor in his early teens ...thats impressive
Even up to Manchild! He was spitting bars and life shit! I feel like if he left the streets alone? He would’ve gotten somewhere! Jay-Z might’ve gave him a record deal
DUDE.....I never considered him a kid rapper. I knew he was a kid....he was my age.....BUT I never saw him as a kid. Kriss Kross were kids, Bow Wow, Romeo, Immature, ABC they was kids......didn't see Shyheim in that category
"Times is gettin hard word is bond I swear to god, I even got caught tryna steal from the junkyard, a born terror a rebel without a cause, I never had a good Christmas so who is santa clause?" - Shyheim the rugged child
His whole swagger, always kinda reminded me of a little Method Man. His rapping style was kinda like Nas meets Pac. I wish RZA had taken him under his wing better back then. I know he was closer with the Stapleton "GP Wu" rappers, but it would've been nice if he had better guidance from actual Clan members. He rapped alongside 2Pac, Biggie, Big L, Jay, Kane, obviously Wu-Tang and more. And he was in TLC "Waterfalls" video, tv shows and movies, this dude should've been a way bigger star.
They should’ve stayed tight with Wu-Tang Clan. If so,they would’ve still been around. Same goes for the Umc’s. Kool Kim a.k.a. Nyoil went to the same school with Method Man. They should’ve all had the Buckshot of Black Moon mentality. When Buckshot came out,he put all of his people’s on which gave birth to the Boot Camp Clik.@@jaimainelee3609
@@ZYaKnoe249 truth hurts my guy…definitely not hate stop being sensitive…buddy was a little kid trying too hard needed real guidance once the novelty wore off he was outta here
Every major music entertainment platform that's on TH-cam should tell his story because he's a part of hip hop history just as any other young MC coming up! Imo his first 2 albums are instant CLASSICS! He's been out of prison for nearly 3 years now. As far as I remember he's been putting together an audio book about his experiences in the industry and in prison. He as of lately been putting out singles here and there. So he's been keeping his nose clean handling his business and staying away from drama. We've been losing our hip hop heroes since this year started. I know that we're all going to die before our time and it's unavoidable but we hope that we don't lose Shyheim. He has much to fulfill. God bless him and best of luck! 🙏.
RZA should’ve tooken care of alot of the Wu Affiliates. But sametime you can only do but so much. Other than Wu Tang Big Daddy Kane was somebody he looked up to very much and been around him. Wu saw him with silk boxers and said Kane was making him soft and he said that crushed him
I can't even front, in my youth I used to emulate this young man due to the gritty lifestyle he painted with words through his music. Honestly I think many children at that time from any ghetto could relate, being born in the "Crack" epidemic. Which is why I feel that he was so relatable in his musical prime. I'll continue to pray for him, as well as all of the people that are lost trying to find their way home... 🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿
That rhyme in the beginning, that’s hip hop, young lost kids trying to find their voice and themselves!!! Shout to Wu-Tang for giving us that voice, shame what the industry has done to us!!!
With all the things that this brother has been through I'm glad he is still with us... If he only had the correct guidance who knows where this brother would have been now.
I remember him when I was growing up in the 90s. This dude was a little kid rapping about grown up shit. We should be the same age now or he might be a little older. I’m 40
He was an intelligent kid with no guidance, 90s in NY was different man that would do something to a kid who’s literally growing up in it. I can’t think of any other 14 year old spitting those kind of painful bars like that. He had a raw deal for real.
Teen rappers most of the time don't turn into stars as adult rappers. They can't duplicate the same success they had as a teen. That teen rapper lane is a two way st and the adult rapper lane is 4 lane highway.
I grew up listening to him, but you're wrong. Maybe better than anything _you've_ heard, but most people don't care enough to look what's out there and think what they're sold is all that's on the market.
88 through 96. So many phenomenal MC's and LP's came out during those years. I'm so grateful to GOD for allowing me to see it and enjoy it. The likes of: Special Ed Queen Latifah Big Daddy Kane Naughty By Nature Mc Lyte De La Soul 3 Times Dope A Tribe Called Quest Leaders of The New School Public Enemy Jungle Brothers Monie Love Fugees 2Pac The Notorious B.I.G Someone please continue...
@@ZYaKnoe249 Agreed. I was born in 87'(New Orleans 8/31) . I literally heard and saw hip hop and rap during the very early 1990s and 89', and saw it change through 1996
I grew up with shy we went to p.s.78 together as kids he was always a cool kid he was two years older than me he was rapping at like 9 years old I remember he would come to my mom's apartment and we would be trying to play Nintendo and all he wanted to do is rap me and my cousin used to be like shut up lol....... Stapleton project's Broad Street Staten Island for ( life) ghost face killer and shy are cousins the two biggest names to come out my projects.....I wish him all the best peace to the Gods and Earth's (7)
Two of my childhood friends have a tape with him spitting with them in Far Rockaway. He had family from out there that were street cats from the housing project we used to live in. One of their names was mentioned by Lord Superb on the Sepreme Clientele album.
Guess once they all reach solo success as well as releasing several WU associates side. Projects,they didn’t have time for him. So Shyheim ran the streets on his spare time. You gotta also remember at that the WU was deep and had so many affiliates and the Rza was in charge of producing nearly every album back in the day’s.@@kasheem1747
You can see in his eyes this kid is real! Been thorough ruff times in life! I think he could’ve had it worst! True talent too! Real recognize real this kid is dope🔥
I think a good one would be Pete Rock and CL-Smooth, THE MAIN INGREDIENT! 94! It’s one of history most underrated albums of all time! Keep up the great work! Much respect!
Not sure you can do a stunted growth on arguably one of the dopest hip hop producers ever, just saying.. Cl maybe but he didn't like the spotlight, not because of any tragic stuff in his life, he was just a different type of cat who moved differently, highly cerebral brother...
Your a very smart man to recognize that. In one of the songs on the album he said, that he’ll retire from rap at 30, and he did. I’m a big fan of your work! Congrats 🎉
One of the most underrated talent in hip-hop. But his surroundings didn't prepare him for the responsibilities that comes with being a successful artist. I got that album and still play it to this day. The album is solid compared to what is out there today.
This is great! I enjoyed watching this! I definitely remember Shyheim, a young Wu-Tang associate. Way advanced b4 his time. I remember him on the movie Original Gangsters, film in my home town of Gary, IN. I'm glad that bro is out of jail and doing better. Keep that heat coming! P.S.: You must do a stunted growth on Remy Ma (if you haven't already), Rapsody, 112, and Saweetie
“I know niggas liver than Allen Iverson, take it to the hole and roll it in triple doubling, suicde drills get you calves built, crossover’s ill have you thinking water spilt….” Shyheim on Soul In the Hole soundtrack.

I feel like bow wow had talent, sure he didn’t write his raps but snoop clearly saw something in him at an early age, 6 to be exact, which were superstar qualities such as stage presence, style, charisma & flow to make him wanna sign him to death row then later giving him to jd and da brat.
It's like he lived another lifetime as a kid he was way ahead of his time it goes to show how a child has to be a man to survive in this New York streets
As a 38 year old white dude from a city I can appreciate this s*** because it's not like his trash that's going around nowadays damn I miss this type of rap
Peace to Michael K Williams. That was hard. Imagine Shyhiem tryna play Omar. That was around the same time. If he doesn't get the role of Omar, you know Hollywood loves to play copycat and get another dude with a scar on his face. That was dope my man
If my memory serve me correctly I ask/told you to do the rugged child a few months back …glad to see you did it ….if anybody need one of these it Shy!!!
I had an uncle who was always on drugs but always loved rap. It could literally be a guy who made an album on his basement and my uncle gonna bump it. I will never forget he was telling me his love for rap and he picked up Sha's album and was like I love this album so much and I grew up listening to this album and I was like you do realize your like 30 years older than him
This was an EYE opening episode!!! Never knew what happened to that brother!! I actually thought he went over seas. Hope he gets himself back on track!!🙏🏼😎👍🏽

Peace to Michael K Williams. That was hard. Imagine Shyhiem tryna play Omar. That was around the same time. If he doesn't get the role of Omar, you know Hollywood loves to play copycat and get another dude with a scar on his face. That was dope my man

If my memory serve me correctly I ask/told you to do the rugged child a few months back …glad to see you did it ….if anybody need one of these it Shy!!!
I had an uncle who was always on drugs but always loved rap. It could literally be a guy who made an album on his basement and my uncle gonna bump it. I will never forget he was telling me his love for rap and he picked up Sha's album and was like I love this album so much and I grew up listening to this album and I was like you do realize your like 30 years older than him
