let's vote for KRS ONE to be in next year's Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame he really deserves to be in it he doesn't get enough credit for hip hop as is let's honor him for hip hop for the next 50 years.....STAND UP FOR HIP HOP!
I actually thought he was a better rapper than 2pac tbf he really was a rare talent and so glad I’m finally getting the chance to see him perform live in the UK
Man, one of my best friends moved away really far and I only see him every few years now. When we meet it's like we never parted ways, shit's beautiful. Keep positivity in your heart!
"I send this record to the well respected, friends that I've collected. I hope I am what you expected". That right there sums up this song, mutual friendship! Knowledge Reign Supreme Over Nearly Everyone!
StanginNbangin TH-cam Account I know. Get the address bl of the Hip Hop organization he runs and send him a letter. He will read it. KRS is that kind of fellow. Sincere and genuine.
Krs-one the best Emcee i am 15 years old and he is my fev Emcee the art of keeping it real i am from afghanistan but i will do anything to meet this Emcee and thanks Krs-one for keeping Hip hop alive
+Afghan ultimate challengers 73. Plus he's the realest mc of all time in my eyes plus his self titled album is one of the best rap albums in the 90s imo
Such an underestimated KRS track. One of the stand-out hits for me and I think one of the best tracks to symobolise hip-hop, the history the mentality and the shared desires/goals of those oppressed in that environment, whether a little or a lot this reflects most peoples environments.
I remember back in like 96 or 97 (I can't remember) when this song came on on the radio one Friday night. I was like 😳😳🥹🥹🥹🥲🥲🥲🥲. I cried a few tears cos I was a nerd and really had no friends. This song spoke volumes to me. I miss those years when music could speak to us.
I grew up listening to KRS-ONE and BDP on my journey as Graf artist, his style and message, as always, relevant and on point. Listening to him is like revisiting my roots. coming home.
This record gives me such a positive feeling within and makes me smile. I love the purity, simplicity and low key lessons taught. Shout out to all the real friends out there. Keep it real.
Truly!! Mad love and respect for the realest purest and greatest to ever bless the mic for sure!! KRS One is one of the greatest Mc's to ever exist!! Pure legend!! Thank KRS One for blessing us with your amazing talent and music!! Much love and gratitude towards you!! Blessed be!! One Love ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜🌈☮️♾️
The fact that I shook hands in person with The Teacher makes this video very poignant. I really am glad that being a Buddhist makes me connect with this dope track.
This is the rap music that I loved growing up, dope lyrics, great songs, boppin your heads, dope messages. It changed when beef was too much, not getting worked out and too much over saturation with trying to dumb it down for record sales. It needed to be balanced
One of the best to ever do it. Still bumping this in 2019, when you can make a song without talking about guns, jewelry, drugs, hoes and still be hard... not to mention, nobody wants to battle this dude because he will eat you alive !!!
Hip hop just gives me sich an energy, when peolpe tell me on partys , turn that slow "shit off" , i cannot understand them. I feel everything from this and it keeps me up everyday. Sry bad english

KRS rapping about the one thing you really need in life. Not cars, not bitches, not drugs, not fame, just a friend.

The rock and roll hall of fame wants no part of him. He speaks truth. They promote puppets.
Another one KRS! Been in prison for 15 years. So much catching up I have to do. Just hearing this for the first time!

Your classic ma bro!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣😎👍🙌
I love oldschool hip-hop.
Time passes so fast.
Yesss was just thinking the same
For real, I remember when this song dropped like it was only 10 years ago.
If your in your mid 30’s to early 40’s, this hits different if you look back compared to now 🙏🏾
exactly. lot of nostalgia looking back in the 90s. Makes me cry
Tengo 43 y 30 en la Hermosa cultura hip-hop... un abrazo Hermano desde Bogota Colombia.
Facts. I was 8 when this was out I’m 35 now in a state of nostalgia
One of the best of all time! Shot outs from Brasil!
caralho eh o rap box!
Rap Box King of the BoomBap

Krs is the Beethoven of hip hop.Truly unique in his delivery and the sound of his music sets him apart.

@@IronLungs69 I think he was just quoting Nas in reference to KRS "Friend "

KRS ONE WILL ALWAYS BE IN MY TOP FIVE LIST OF ALL TIME!!
Two decades later the message still rings just as true. Best age of lyrics, hands down.
i wish i could tell this dude how much he influenced me
StanginNbangin TH-cam Account I know. Get the address bl of the Hip Hop organization he runs and send him a letter. He will read it. KRS is that kind of fellow. Sincere and genuine.
KRS one is definitely the teacher of Hip Hop
I saw him last year in Dallas (:
Brad Nowell of Sublime felt the same way and made a song for him.
Me too
The sounds he brings and lyrics are classics. Love his vibe. I feel this type of music is on its way back.
Chicago love
So true.. His vibe is the heart of my city the Bronx
This song makes me wanna cry cause of how beautiful this is 😔❤
Krs-one the best Emcee

I'm going to see him tom morrow...First time

Nice name ChillaBee!
@@NIMMHATVRapBeats Agreed! Also, fantastic instrumental.
I cant believe I never fucking heard this. Its one of my favorite tracks ever now.

real rappers never die
This song hurts me soul sometimes. It’s words I can’t describe this track tells it perfectly
That 3rd verse is straight up flawless
when youtube plays an ad before the video starts: THE BEAT WAS SUPPOSED TO DROP RIGHT THERE
I grew up listening to KRS-ONE and BDP on my journey as Graf artist, his style and message, as always, relevant and on point. Listening to him is like revisiting my roots. coming home.
I only have two true friends but I consider myself doubly blessed for them and this song immortalizes how it is
One of my favorite Krs1 records ever. ✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿
KRS is one of the OGs who inspired me to get into making music. Always a friend.
Over 20 years later, and every time I hear this beat drop, I do that side to side rock like Angie & Red.. Classic shit.
One of my absolute favorite KRS records.
Glad that KRS getting his 🌹
Love this background music for this song. KRS One is truly a dope MC along with Big Daddy Kane.
Knowledge Reigns Supreme Over Nearly Everyone..
Very lyrical!
K.R.S.-O.N.E for real ;)
What a name.
Call up KRS, I'm guaranteed to rip a party
@@lifeismusikmusikislife4684 a quote from Bhagavat gita, hindu holy book. He was influenced by hare krishna
All anyone really needs is a friend.

James Day yup..i see him..doug e fresh..grandmaster caz and Sammie b from the jungle brothers..or and his wife and son
ISORROWPRODUCTIONS IS THE BEST
biz markie would disagree
Real friend.Maybe you fake friend and friends with me for money or hype??
Shout-out Redman and Angie. East coast.
Best rap song ever made.
I miss all of of you people who I've lost.
KRS One is the only rapper I can understand in every song. Love his easy-to-understand style to pronounce.
KRS is eternal.

*Hot Damn!* Showbiz's beat is so good ... really looking forward to seeing KRS live in June, one of my favorites that I haven't seen live yet.
Oh my Gosh. Ain't this as good as it gets? Beyond words. Poetry and motion baby
No Guns,no drugs,no undressed womans Just the real hip hop this is art not trash babyyy
One of the best tracks from KRS. Classic.
I’ve been down with KRS-One since his Boogie Down Productions prowessed experience. Our Hip Hop Bob Dylan and Marley. 👏🏾👍🏾
KRS one of the great lyricist of all time. His wordplay has always been phenomenal.
This record gives me such a positive feeling within and makes me smile. I love the purity, simplicity and low key lessons taught. Shout out to all the real friends out there. Keep it real.
I always loved this song. He's got a twinkle in his eye but a growl in his voice that commands attention.
OMG this has got to be one of my all-time favorite KRS 1 tracks and also one of my all-time favorite hip-hop cuts as well.
Ever since Criminal Minded, KRS ONE has been my favorite rapper. One of the best.
most realist track in my opinion
What a timeless joint. This song even has more meaning in 2019.
Another KRS ONE classic!! The lyrics are pure gold
Krs one and Kool Keith... Two artists I love the most..... 😘💕💞Lots of love from India.
Never fails to put a smile on my face no matter my mood one of the greatest!

I love this song since i heard it first in 97.
big shout to my man Showbiz, he always hit us with a banger beat
no doubt....show dont play
Mirko Machine such a banger
Somehow showbiz always finds the most obscure samples and turn this into a real good beat. Easy top 5 producers of all time imo.
Diretamente do Brasil, até aqui KRS é uma lenda
🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷👽🛸💨
KRS-One hell of a talent
Master mind! Always supporting. That’s all Kris one it’s all about!
This was always 🔥🔥🔥🔥 The Teacher
True hip hop..I miss hits like this…Simple but important topics.I miss these days!!
This is the rap music that I loved growing up, dope lyrics, great songs, boppin your heads, dope messages. It changed when beef was too much, not getting worked out and too much over saturation with trying to dumb it down for record sales. It needed to be balanced
KRS One a true hip hop artists👍 The real deal.
This was real hip hop, miss the gold era.. Krs allways was genius
straight up spectacular track. Peace to da teacher blast master....
I think in a world where ppl have more virtual friends then physical friends, this song is more relevant today than when it was made.
DAMN NEVER HEARD THIS JOINT 🤔🤔🤔🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💯👌🏾👊🏾✊🏾💪🏾🎯🎯🎯🎯🎯
One of the best to ever do it. Still bumping this in 2019, when you can make a song without talking about guns, jewelry, drugs, hoes and still be hard... not to mention, nobody wants to battle this dude because he will eat you alive !!!
Feeling blessed I had the opportunity to see this legend perform live!
2020 and just hearing this. Homework time. Topic : KrsOne

Yess..I remember buying this when it was just released..at tempest record shop..KRS 1 The teacher..🎶🎶
Had the opportunity to meet him whilst he was giving a show in the Netherlands a couple years ago. Awesome dude!
Hip hop just gives me sich an energy, when peolpe tell me on partys , turn that slow "shit off" , i cannot understand them. I feel everything from this and it keeps me up everyday. Sry bad english
The legend never stop dropping bombs! One love for KRS
