The 90s were so magical. For real. I’m not just saying this because I grew up in the 90s. But real facts. It was something about it. I don’t think nobody knows what exactly it was. But it was like magic!! Not only music but just the era.
One of the most smoothest raps ever. Is there anyone of the new generation that can rap at this level without cursing & calling women out their names? Can we get back to this? 🐯
Hello thanks for your comments and supports, your comments and constant supports have brought me this far. Keep supporting❤️ Please send me a mail via Jamestoddsmith913@gmail.com
I refuse to listen to today's "rap" and "R&B" after growing up with REAL MUSIC like this! It had substance and was about the vocals/words over the beat.
I`m from Poland and this song made me want to learn English before I had it at school. I was 10 back then. Now I`m a teacher of English in my country and I truly think it`s all because of LL rhyming skills.
It blows my mind how beautiful and erotic LL's verses are. How well crafted they are and how the lyrics bounce off the beat, and it's still so legit and classic, as opposed to what some argue about rap.
I wasn't talking about his career, I was talking about this specific song and its verses and musical structure. But, yeah, of course his more recent stuff isn't quite the same. =/ *****
I am a white fella and I just need to say that Black Music is the best thing that could have ever happen in my life! It started when i was 7 years old with "It`s tricky" Run Dmc ! I love you all and thanks.
Ah the 90’s. I was born in 83’ in NYC and I’m extremely lucky to have witnessed the greatest era of entertainment. From the timeless films and tv shows that we’re made, to the timeless Hip-Hop music that can never get old no matter how many years go by. It really was a special era where we were getting hit with timeless material from all different angles and we were blessed to be around it. You’d have to have been around to know what we’re talking about. There really isn’t ever going to be another era like the 90s. There is a reason Hip-Hop from that era gets so much praise, and it’s not a nostalgia thing either. Everything was clicking on all cylinders creatively from everywhere. And this song right here is one of the highlights of that era. Great amazing classic record from LL Cool J and Boyz II Men, and a wonderful beat by the Trackmasters. Classic material right here folks. Enjoy it !!!
The new generation got lazy. Chopped words in half, try their best to sound like the others, and use beats off of old tracks. A beautiful poem that would get you laid turned into guys saying suck my d... bi..ch over and over again. No skill.
Look im a 36 yr old white guy and i prefer metal and rock. But ive got to seriously admit, this is one of my favorite songs of all time!! You cant go wrong with LL Cool J and Boyz II Men!! Especially Boyz II Men!!
Boys is a pop/randb/ commercial group so everyone knows who they are.Even ones such as yourself who is not into this type of music, so I am not surprised.lol.They cross color and country lines.I lived in Japan for several years and they are big in a country that does not speak English.
It's crazy to me how somebody could be out there that really likes you and would treat you good if they had the chance. But they never say anything to you.
No nudity, no vulgarity, just pure talent and message, how I wish I can go back to this time, when music was made out of love and life experiences, no twerking, no plastic surgeries, nothing just beautiful music for all ages... LL cool J my crush 😁😁😁😁
@@NorthPhilly-zr7xc, it's so unimpressive when you see stuff that COMPLETELY computerized. No real creativity and cleverness behind how they put stuff together
No ab libs..just bars and perfect harmonizing. Everybody ate this track so well they still eating off it.. if u didn’t grow up in the 90’s u missed it. TRUE ERA
I grew up in the 90s These songs were great on the radio,But I love the fact that today's rapper keeping it real: Drugs (especially Xanax), Murdering and mental illness.
Aight, now, I get what you mean, but ad libbing is actually what quality musicians and singers do quite well. That's when artists take a song to a place that makes it their own. It's what Wanya was doing throughout that song. But, YES, like you said, harmonizing DANG sure ain't something that singers do anymore.
Let’s take a moment to appreciate the production by the Trackmasters. Think of how creative and bold one has to be to build upon an already great song from Michael and Quincy (Lady In My Life). And they pulled it off flawlessly!
The 80s and 90s will NEVER be matched when it comes to music and movies, and honestly life in general, born May of 81 i was lucky enough to see and remember most of the 80s and every bit of the 90s, and this song was my jam when it came out cause it just so happened that i was crushing hard on a girl at the time, i would play this shit over n over, lol, ahhh to be young again..
He's smooth. I'm saying that as a straight male. I've liked him and the rest of the group since the early 90s. Haven't heard anything new for quite some time though. There's gotta be some new stuff out there. Anything I should hear?
The way his lyrics compliment their voices/ the way they laced this dope joint with a sample of Michael Jackson you are the lady in my life....pure genius❤💯❤
The Lady in My Life - Michael Jackson! MJ has always been about the culture, he owns all the rights to his own songs yet allowed hundreds of young rappers and R&B singers to sample his classics.
@@lexxdiamondz Mijacs Publishing is still owned by his Estate. Not sure what your comment has to do with my point, other than highlighting that all humans are mortal? Isn't that the reason why you can't see your beloved Frank Sinatra live in concert anymore?
I love this song, I am 37 right now, I can believe how time goes by. It seems like I am 17 and hear this Song. I feel like these days, maybe I never grow up, I am like these days. I never wanna grow up like Peter Pan, even it´s Hip Hop.
Low key this is one of the most underrated beautiful romantic and greatest ballads of all times an American treasure❤️🙏🏽❤️✊🏽❤️this song is straight up for FUCKIN🙏🏽❤️💯
I was in high school when this album dropped. So blessed to have grown up with music like this as the soundtrack of my life. Peace to everyone still listening to this timeless jam.
this is more than Rap, more than Hip-Hop, more than Soul, more than a song, more than an album (Mr. Smith) - - this is a mark for a whole era literally starting with the mid 90's all the way to the end of the 90's , riveting! if y'all with me hit a like, friends . . peace
Back when Hiphop and R&B COMPLIMENTED each other on the same song. This is a perfect mixture. Now it feels like one genre is always trying overpower the other. It's either rappers trying too hard to be "singers" or R&B artists trying to hard to have that "hardcore" feel.
Does anyone else remember back when Boyz2Men ruled the world ? Back when every hit song was played on every radio station and every new video was played on every video show on every music channel and every album was guaranteed 2X platinum and every collaboration was an absolute hit! Yeah,me too. (If I had 1 wish,I would wish for Boyz2Men to rule the world again :-)
Its funny how relevant this song still is to me. I was putting oil in my car yesterday at college and saw this beautiful girl walk by. I'm talking a perfect 10! We locked eyes and both smiled at each other for quick second. I wanted to say something but nothing came out. That normally never happens to me when i look at someone and instantly feel something. Now I'm pissed off at myself for not saying anything. Hopefully if it's meant to be i will see her again 😔
+Roger Stephenson Same here. I was putting oil in my girl, and this beautiful car drove by. I mean a perfect 10. I locked eyes with its headlights, and it honked at me. DAMN! Wished I said something to it.
+Roger Stephenson Don't look too far to the back to find her, maybe the next one will be right in the front ;) LOL........ Boyz with their toyz.... Stay Focused!! *
I’m so sorry. I’m sure you will think of her and all the laughs you shared every time you hear this song and she will be lookin down singing right along with ya♥️
1995 has so many timeless hits thanks to LL, Boyz ii Men, TLC, Biggie, 2Pac, Method Man, Mary J, Mobb Deep, Brandy, Monica, Faith, Total, Raekwon, ODB, GZA, Xscape, D'Angelo, Soul for Real, AZ, Coolio, Goodie Mob, Bone Thugs and Mariah.
As I've said elsewhere, LL does this rap thing as good as any. He doesn't "do it" like 'Pac or "Biggie" did it. And he ain't no Em, Mack..... but, make no mistake, he is not to be denied. He does it like he does it,....and he does "it" like nobody else... and nobody does it like L.L. Cool J.

Why is a polski teaching English? Surely you still have the odd problem with English or get a sentence structure confused?

Hi johnny sins 😅
LL Cool J has the most romantic rap lyrics!
He actually my true crush
This song and DMX's hows it going down always get me in this sensual vibe. 90s beats is undefeated and hit different
funny enough i find myself playing those videos a lot.both have good videos
Yes I’ve always loved “how it’s goin down” one of my favorite X songs.
Talk to em brah....✊
Yesssss I thought I was the only person who thought that. Both songs are a whole vibe on their own
Ooo yes!!!! Those are my fav songs from both of them.. it truly hits differently

Steven Einstein thanks
Sweet Jonez yup
LL has to be the smoothest hip hop artist ever. He's a huge reason why I got into this genre
This still a timeless classic and my favorite ll cool j song and boy 2 men are legends always 😊🔥🔥 they killed this
*Back when Boys to Men was Rocking as 4MEMBERS STRONG!*
Facts!!! 💯
Really miss them as a four member group instead of a trio now. #BoyzIIMenFanforlife
Fun fact: this was sampled from Michael Jackson Lady of my life, goes to show how much influence he had on many
I was in high school when this album dropped. So blessed to have grown up with music like this as the soundtrack of my life.
Peace to everyone still listening to this timeless jam.
LL is the GOAT of grown and sexy rap
this is more than Rap, more than Hip-Hop, more than Soul, more than a song, more than an album (Mr. Smith) - - this is a mark for a whole era literally starting with the mid 90's all the way to the end of the 90's , riveting! if y'all with me hit a like, friends . . peace
I remember hearing this jam on the radio when I was a little boy. Now I'm 33 years old rediscovering the song it is really amazing. They killed it
Listening now I get stalker vibes from this song

Amazing!!!
Aww I love to hear it 🥰
Who's still listening in 2024?
Me 😊
🤟🏻🤟🏻
Because this jam is just classic
Definitely
I love this song
Back when Hiphop and R&B COMPLIMENTED each other on the same song. This is a perfect mixture.
Now it feels like one genre is always trying overpower the other. It's either rappers trying too hard to be "singers" or R&B artists trying to hard to have that "hardcore" feel.
Hip-Hop and R&B in the 90's just hit different.
FACTS
Better than today music 👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎
Real Music❤️🎶🎵🎶🎵🎵
Back when LL had all that unreleased FUBU I could never seem to find

This is a song that we all can totally relate too.

Your boyfriends a cool cat he knows whats up and you're cool for liking it
@@raphealsmith8305 the poor guy that lost you to your bf
You are so lucky.
"If his love is real, he can handle competition"😉😂😂😂 sorry had to do it lol
Very nice 👌👍
Does anyone else remember back when Boyz2Men ruled the world ? Back when every hit song was played on every radio station and every new video was played on every video show on every music channel and every album was guaranteed 2X platinum and every collaboration was an absolute hit! Yeah,me too. (If I had 1 wish,I would wish for Boyz2Men to rule the world again :-)
+L. Logan Right Beyonce and Rihanna is too overrated.
The Legendary Lurch Logan I'm here for it... I would love for that to happen...😍😍😍
I remember that in the good ole 90s
Before 2024 ends who’s here for this sweet memory. Bottoms up for this one 🥂
These were the days when all members of a group could sing. Just listen to the sweetness of all these voices together. Untouchable 🖤🖤🖤🖤❤️
Its funny how relevant this song still is to me. I was putting oil in my car yesterday at college and saw this beautiful girl walk by. I'm talking a perfect 10! We locked eyes and both smiled at each other for quick second. I wanted to say something but nothing came out. That normally never happens to me when i look at someone and instantly feel something. Now I'm pissed off at myself for not saying anything. Hopefully if it's meant to be i will see her again 😔
did you see her again?
did you see her again?
+Roger Stephenson I hope you see her again
+Roger Stephenson Same here. I was putting oil in my girl, and this beautiful car drove by. I mean a perfect 10. I locked eyes with its headlights, and it honked at me. DAMN! Wished I said something to it.
+Roger Stephenson Don't look too far to the back to find her, maybe the next one will be right in the front ;) LOL........ Boyz with their toyz.... Stay Focused!! *
My closest friend passed on 10th October this was her favourite jam. Rest in peace my girl.
I’m so sorry. I’m sure you will think of her and all the laughs you shared every time you hear this song and she will be lookin down singing right along with ya♥️
🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Hugs baby girl❤️
My condolences
Pole sana Linda. May she rest with the angels. ❤
1995 has so many timeless hits thanks to LL, Boyz ii Men, TLC, Biggie, 2Pac, Method Man, Mary J, Mobb Deep, Brandy, Monica, Faith, Total, Raekwon, ODB, GZA, Xscape, D'Angelo, Soul for Real, AZ, Coolio, Goodie Mob, Bone Thugs and Mariah.
The clothing and style and flows where on point incredible era 1990s forever
I can't help but think about Video Soul back in the 90s when this song would be #1 on the countdown. So happy to see LL and my Boyz in the #1 spot.
reminds me wen i was doing grade 8 damn this is classic....no more good music like this nowadays Lateshia
my shit
Lateshia Childs listen to me... when you could hear a song from the 90's and that beat hits you like YOU ARE IN THE 90's... that's my SH*T !!!
Likewise
LL Cool J THE GOAT . Real Lyricist MC Even his luv songs so dope
Voice's of Boyz II Men 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
As I've said elsewhere, LL does this rap thing as good as any. He doesn't "do it" like 'Pac or "Biggie" did it. And he ain't no Em, Mack..... but, make no mistake, he is not to be denied. He does it like he does it,....and he does "it" like nobody else... and nobody does it like L.L. Cool J.
