An absolute must-see. long, but worth it. This may change how you think. Sorry about it being cut out at some parts. there was nothing i could do about that! :(
Yo whoever uploaded this very helpful lecture to the Hip Hop community I thank you! I always learn something new and it rejuvenates my spirit in these isolated fucked up times we're in! The Teacher KRS ONE REAL HIP HOP!
I know u felt bad about the phone running out of space, but thank you for even capturing what u did! To have held ur phone up for the amount of time that you did is still gold :)
Those of us who remember the "early days of hip hop" (highlighted by the release of "Rapper's Delight") remember it used to be about "enjoying yourself" and "sharing your experiences," period. In short, KRS One is basically saying that "Hip-Hop" was the "inspiration that preceded the action." This is what Hip Hop "used to be" and was treated. Look back at all the "true" pioneers (Grandmaster Flash & the Furious Five, LL Cool J, Big Daddy Kane, Eric B. & Rakim, Stetsasonic, Juice Crew, Boogie Down Productions, MC Shan, DJ Scott LaRock, Audio Two, MC Lyte, Kool Mo Dee, Salt 'N Pepa, Whodini, The Treacherous Three, etc...) and you'll see they all expressed their experiences and ideals of hip hop by just "interpreting their surroundings" with a little "song & rhyme." Hip hop used to be a "party atmosphere with no drama, troubles, or violence. The tragedy we call hip hop today was ushered in around 1987 when NWA, King Sun, and other West Coast Gang-Banging rap crews started getting record deals. Fyi, Dr Dre (a.k.a "Beats Audio") will forever be the pioneering architect of this "gangster trash," misogynistic," "ruff yo azz up" subculture that's both "foolishly" glamorized and decimated the true meaning of Hip Hop. Don't let Dre fool you; he was "nothing about gang banging" when he was with his first group (1984) named "World Class Wrecking Crew:" th-cam.com/video/VfKLB6dw9YEA/w-d-xo.htmllthough Although west coast crews were rapping about their experiences, the emphasis was put moreso on the violence, although there were good lyrics as well. Shortly after that, "everybody" was a "thug;" even Tupac said in a 1994 interview that if "thuggin' was going to make the money, then a thug is what he needed to be. KRS One is just trying to "right the ship" because what is known as hip hop today is "way off course..."
krs is crazy to say the civil war was not about slavery he does not know African American history he just disrespected African American history because the civil war was about slavery and power.
So great its a shame no one else was recording. So much knowledge, I for one wont be forgetting any of this anytime soon. He was there to talk about hip hop but actually taught more important and useful things than teachers and professors in a conversational and brainstorming manner and it didn't cost u nothing but a little time.
This is the truth. Thank you for filming this. KRS One is the best statesman for hip hop and rap we have. I've learnt a lot about the history and the reason for the behaviours that are in the scene.
this only has 67k views? this is one of the wisest hip hop artists alive and motherfucking shit, industry artists, get more views. for shame america. for shame
+Tyson Thein You said it best; KRS is a philosopher, extremely intelligent, articulate and wise, it baffles my mind as to how people support garbage rappers who don't care to edify them and shun folks with wisdom, especially in this the good US of A. This should have no less than 1 million views. Watch any other hip hop video with people denigrating women and talking about murdering this and that and driving this car and wearing this, they have 10s of millions of views. Sad state of affairs.
i knew i was rite,ive been having this feeling in my gut and in my heart for the longest,that WE ARE ALL GODS AND GODESS, we are so beautiful and extremely powerful and here we are buying into fear,killing each other for materials, we're depending on technology way to much its disconnecting from mother earth.it just makes me happy to see that there are people out there that feel the same way as i do.On that note much Love&Respect to the teacher amongst the other teachers(Buddah,Krishna etc) KRS1
We are not gods and godesses. There is but one tru God and that is Jehovah. KRS-One has been trying to hijack hip hop and use it to spread the satanic and false teachings that he has been decieved by. He and groups like zulu nation have made up a bunch of crap based on false religions.
even doe im watching dis on utube do u noe how grateful ill be if i were in attendance there i learned so much in da past hour and some change now its time 2 spread da word......thank u krs 1 and thank u 2 da dude dat uploaded dis video
nice!!!,... no, not nice.... this is so well explained of a speech about the origins of the greatest music slash life slash hiphop it should be mandatorally watched on public television. shout outs to youtube. big up the movement. hiphop aint dead. lata
So much Respect, Thank you for sharing this with us. Mind blowing information!!!!! I have my daughters sitting with me listening to you. So that they too will know the truth. We desperately need a Hip Hop University and academies for K-12. So our kids will know the Truth.
As sublime said I know because of krs one... My brother was born same day n year hip hop was born.n he a killer singer... I think how James Brown is hip hop.. James Brown n reggae an Afro pop all on that backbeat
tipman2000 Its a shame you couldn't record it all but don't be sorry. Thanks for putting this on you tube. This is just what I needed to hear today. So I thank-you sincerely . Knowledge is power and KRS1 is one powerful guy. Wishing you all the best of health wealth and happiness :0)
I have to agree with you on that Madison. Just bits of the actual Truth coming out is remarkable to hear for a change instead of some zombified crap. Knowledge and wisdom bring about everything else.
He is trying to educate these kids, and he's so knowledgeable, but he could be so much more effective if he used a lesson plan which would help him to plan out the presentation of the subject. As a teacher myself, I notice him jumping around from tangent to tangent. Some tips for KRS: 1) prepare an outline of the subject. Give students the outline either on paper or as a download. The outline should include all relevant REFERENCE MATERIALS ie, titles/authors of books (as 1 example) 2) names/dates of all historical events/people/places 3) VOCABULARY LIST-terms you refer to in your lecture 4) bring a turntable/LPs to show them how scratch n drop works 5) find someone to sponsor paying for students to be given your book. These are just a few ideas. One more idea...have one person, not a student recording your lecture instead of allowing 10 different students to record it. Students should be listening without the distraction of having to record. As you read from the books, students should have what you are reading to them on paper, given to them prior to the lecture, so they can follow along. I hope this is of some use to you @KRS. It's advice given with love from an open hip-hop heart. You are very very knowledgeable, just need a bit of organization. Much love, peace, blessings!
It's sad isn't it, that when I tell people about my love for HipHop that these kind of teachings are what I think about, yet their perception of HipHop is most likely tainted by the popular modern rappers. It almost makes me feel ashamed to do so
Everyone should watch this video and let it soak the mind. Then interpret it in your ways of understanding. Once you've achieved that you can truly express yourself to the world. You then can bring change for the better of everyone, including yourself. KRS-1 is a man of knowledge and understanding. He should be celebrated, but not copied. Even though he is great, you should strive to be even greater. I will achieve this position in life. I am not the next KRS-1, I am the first Mentalkalmplex!!!
I got everything he said. I've done alot of previous research on the subject. But it do question if, regular spectators understand. for me thats really important, To be able to skim the surface but still go deep.
Thank you KRS-One for all the knowledge and insight you have shared with us in this video so great and inspiring ive learnt shitloads more about hiphop in this 1:24:55 than i ever have in my entire life lol i loved every minute of it JAH BLESS Oh and Thank you tipman2000 for shooting and posting You Rock too :D
Tae Price all you need to do to find the book is type the quote that KRS read iut to the class into the google search bar. Let google find it for you. Good Luck!
This IS history... If you don't mind I would like to back this up in our archive to preserve it for future generations. Matter of fact everyone of you should do this! Peace and much respect from Switzerland! IGI B. / Temple of Hip Hop Templist / Swiss Hip Hop Ambassador for the Temple of Hip Hop
If you guys want to be more knowledgeable about hip-hop's culture and where it derives from you should check out Can't Stop Won't Stop: A History of the Hip-Hop Generation. Everything KRS says brings me back to when I read this book. Really good read. All that new mainstream bullshit goes against what hiphop stands for and how it came to be. Raise your consciousness and recognize the real!!
Herc threw a party for his sister. Now, everything released never misses a slant on either killing a girl's identity by the labels people tag on them. it doesn't stop there, rappers miss a whole lot of hiphop's beginnings. Everyone would blame DefJam if Russell Simmons wasn't heading it.

The True Fathers of Hip Hop are Grandmaster DJ Flowers, King Disco Mario, Pete DJ Jones, and Kool DJ Dee.

Years ago, he said he was "The Teacher". Here's the proof!!!! Excellent!
THE REAL MASTER

This is the Minister Farrakhan of Hip-Hop. Excellent upload ''Tipman'' The REAL Hip-Hop is over here
@igibtv i would love that! an honor! let me know if it happens!
It's sad isn't it, that when I tell people about my love for HipHop that these kind of teachings are what I think about, yet their perception of HipHop is most likely tainted by the popular modern rappers. It almost makes me feel ashamed to do so
Anyone know the original recording date and location of this lecture?? Much Love!

50 didn’t write “The 50th Law”.
He was featured on it, the main author is Robert Greene. The same guy that wrote “The 48 Laws of Power”
All the points he brings up in this are very interesting.
so awsome cant even explain KRS ONE 4 LIFE
2017 and still relevant. #realhiphop
Thank you. been looking for this information!
Word,is,bond...
ABSOLUTE TRUTH!!! STRAIGHT UP....WORD UP!!!
KRS 1 tells em get big skills and give it for cheap, I say do it for love. Do everything for love.
I got everything he said. I've done alot of previous research on the subject.
But it do question if,
regular spectators understand.
for me thats really important,
To be able to skim the surface but still go deep.
AMAZING KNOWLEDGE WOOW
