@@jimr9499 wow a reply from my comment as a 15 year old, didn’t expect that lol this just brought me back a bit. But yea I work as a driver now and usually keep my music on rotation and this song comes up every so often, heard last week actually
This used to be my jam. Damn, I miss hip hop. Oh well, at least I have the memories that'll last for the rest of my life. Thank you, Lords of the Underground...
I am from Germany and was an exchange student in a highschool in Pennsylvania in '93 and everytime we sat on the backseat of the old Pointiac Thunderbird of our american friends they played this song with full volume. Loved it so much.
Produced by the one and only K-DEF, in my opinion the most skilled overlooked and important hip-hop producer and beatmaker in hip-hop EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I rememeber when this song came out in 1993. I was 13. I tripped when I saw the lead rapper with that diaper. They were a pretty good group. Of course, when the Wu came out, it was all over. Hip hop changed.
Finesse’s love for trumpets is absolutely signature. Also.. All of the Lord’s lyricism is prominent, to which I had to pay homage, and as for the beat, it is beyond simple admiration, (respectfully to the lyricists). Props, my recognition may not be necessarily important but it is well deserved regardless. May y’all never go under appreciated, so long as you are preserved with a respect among its bona fide audience. Much love to both Finesse and K-Def, the love for their art shows and shall always be appreciated.
this has to be one of the dopest beats ever produced. that thomas bell sample in the breakdown is ... perhaps the most haunting hip hop sample ever used. stuff to beat juggle to. bigupz to ur old man.
I was a fan of this song when it's dropped, but when I found out where they got the sample from I was even more impressed, because you had to be a true movie head, and listen to the entire song to get that trumpet sample!!!! 🎺 I salute the producer of this joint!
This used to be my shit back in the days. I use to bump that shit full blast all through the streets of the ATL.....Still loving it almost 20 years later
i m seventeen, from Greece and we here it, only those who really like and love hip hop ofcourse, after all these years, so we can say for sure that they are classic and will never been forgoten
Been Trying to Remember This Song for a MONTH Now...Finally!! Found it After Typing in "Funky Rap Song 90s" and THIS Came up...Very Lucky and Feel Much Better Now
This song is awesome! But I can't believe I'm noticing this now but it was either Tru-Skool or Specialist that sampled the beginning base beat in the song on Kaka Bhaniawala's Sahnewal Chownk. I've been listening to that song since I was like 9! Old school hip-hop mixed with the new Punjabi music sounds so good.
I feel that it is up to us young people who listen to real hip hop to spread it around to our friends and family to keep real hip hop alive and it is the responsibility of adults to raise thier children and younger siblings listening to real hip hop.
Music that you can understand what they are saying. Without cursing and telling about how many women they slept with or. how many people they killed. I am so proud to be a 1980 baby. Because when i wasa teenager these songs are all i listen too.👍👍👍👍
I lived through this whole era buying up the 12's whenever they dropped and used to think how great the music was. These days those memories are priceless. Moreso nowadays when I hear what is supposedly rap music.

"Funky rip the style, lawd have mercy!!!!"
Classic tune!!!
No mumbling
No glorifying drugs and violence
No exploiting women
Not a single curse word.
They don’t make em like this anymore.
Also no Zesty Dudes
this song is hot and it still has that effect like it came out this year!!!...classic!
This gotta be in the top 5 of the funkiest hip hop beats ever..
Keep it oldskool !
This is the REAL hiphop !!!
Glad to have lived in and experience d this Era of Rap. Still bumping this in 2023✊🏿

bigupz to ur old man.
This is "The GOOD OL DAYS", Of Rap/Hip-Hop, Ol School Rap RULES. I am 47, and I loved this cut. The Lords shouldn't have broke up, THEY WERE DOPE.
That opening bar and the production and everything was so on point
I was a fan of this song when it's dropped, but when I found out where they got the sample from I was even more impressed, because you had to be a true movie head, and listen to the entire song to get that trumpet sample!!!! 🎺 I salute the producer of this joint!
Where is the sample from?
lords of the underground ❤ you guys did that appreciate it ...
God bless TH-cam for videos of real hip hop there's nothing like it!!!
0:00 When that beat dropped, we already knew the banger we were in store for. Over thirty years ago. Time has flown.
Ohh damn long time.
The golden age of hip hop. Takes me back to my high school days...
This song and NYC when I was 17. What a great mix!
Still 🔥 lords had the sick beats ...
If you are listening in 2020 and have been a fan since the early 90s you are a legend and hero amongst mere mortals.
Your father in my opinion is one of the greatest golden era hip-hop producers of all time!!!!
back in the days,,,,was great,music,,,like this 0ne.....
If ya ain't a funky child YA be asked y ya listen to the funky sound.
Ohhhh yes, ahaha, the infamous "woo!", "yeah!". Never gets old.

One of the dopest blast the lords
Part of my weight room playlist...💪🏾
This sums us up for the 90's, was the funky children of the funk gods of the 80's! Now what will our children be influenced by?
Dope intro, dope track, dope group :D
I have that in my favorites also!!!!!
I feel that it is up to us young people who listen to real hip hop to spread it around to our friends and family to keep real hip hop alive and it is the responsibility of adults to raise thier children and younger siblings listening to real hip hop.
this song is so incredibly funky. can't believe i'd never heard it before, and i'm an early nighties hip hop head tooooooo. OH MY GOOOSHHH

Lyrics
The year is nineteen seventy one
Now comes the first of the children of Roton
Lords of the underground witness the birth of the funky child
Do it all hit 'em
Born with the fuckers from the womb of Brenda
She now likes the Lords but she used to dig The Spinners
First with the style from the birth canal
And now I got the flav to make the crowd go wild
So dig it, don't watch me kick it
I'm taking no shorts unless this girl from my midget
I packs the piece more than chicken packed grease
I'm nearly knocking boots, but if not I'll knock teeth
Wahh! Gaga, ooh cries the baby
Smacked on the ass now the Doitall's crazy
No rattles or playpens, the crowds what I'm rapping
And yes I do Reruns, as if this boy was happening
Now January fourteenth has birthed the funk one
The D-Day for Dupree and yes I'm funky
I got you bobbing to the funky style
K-Def let 'em know here comes the funky child
Yeah, born in the underground of Newark
Now witness the birth of Mr. Funkee
The fifth of the terror, it's the return of Funky Kreuger
A.K. Anger, but yo that's Mr. Funkee Wallbanger
Conceived in the fire by you warned through disasters
The funky child was taught to the ways of the masters
Mr. Funkee, yes girl the black mack is back
Here to kick my funky style, funky this and funky that
You can work kid you know, you could practice all your life
But I still take the show and then I go home with the wife
Oh my God, funky with the style, Lord have mercy
I hurdle over rappers just like Jackie Joyner-Kersee
Watch me flip the script, let me show you what the funk do
Make you call me uncle, what? Uncle, what? Uncle, who?
When I was younger I used to sing with my sister
Now I kick the ill styles you have to call me mister
Cooling in my House of Hits, time to buck wild
Raised in the ways of the funky child
Funky child, funky, funky style
Funky child, funky, funky style
Funky child, funky, funky style
Funky child, funky, funky style
Funky child, funky child
Funky child, funky child
Back up baby, 'cuz here comes the schooler
We're hit when we dry crawl and hit rock n' roller
I'm caught in the swinging, hypnotized by the pendulum
Incomprehensible, so this is how I'm killing them
K is on the M.P., Jazz is on the Technique
Marley's on the mix and now the Lords have a hit like pow
Now it's time to get buck wild
And watch my funky brothers freak the underground
In a second, or minute, in no times flat
Bring it back
And go grab the album to bring the Lords money
Take it home to mom to say, ain't they funky?
We gone psycho and everybody thought they did was styles
They didn't affect me, I said, "So what?", I kept on writing rhymes
I keep my funky style perfected so no one can stop my flow
I fear no man, 'cuz if it's on fool, then it's on, and it's on
Don't worry not for other crews selling out
As long as Lords of the underground stay underground
The brothers of Lotug will keep the lyrical fitness
Don't worry about me selling out, mind your business
You might say damn, Mr. Funkee's throwing out
But if you listen to the words then you'll know what I'm about
Any props you receive are the props that you earn
I'm off till the funky child returns
What a throwback!!!!!!!!!!!
best ever :) i still have this vinyl :)
A great era in Hip Hop....
2021!I love it❤
"Born in the underground of Newark, I witnessed the birth of Mr. Funky." Fuking classic...
