Definitely one of the best Tracks ever produced to me. Awesome beat and fantastic flow, Fat Joe at his best. DJ Premier just killed the beat. Everybody says Hip Hop is dead, it's just changed like every genre of music. Hip Hop had it's best years in the 90's and we will always 'member them! peace
i was listening to this joint today, and i was like "YOOOOOOOOO" i haven't heard this joint in a hot ass minute...man, i tell ya, i love the 90's...nothing, i mean, nothing is better than the 90's.
hands down Premo aka Dj Premier is one of the illest when it came to putting them beats together.. M.O.P Guru (R.I.P), Jay-Z, Nas and plenty others would agree. 90's Music will forever be the golden era of hip hop..
The 90's .....What A Time To Be Alive! This Beat Captures The Essence Of This Time Period ... #Premo & #Joe Shout Out To All My 70's & 80's Babies! We Are The True Trendsetters REAL HIP HOP FOREVER!!!
Just snuck in, 1979.. 40 yrs old now and wondering wtf happened to rap.. Forever 90’s east coast for me, if I make my 70’s my old ass will still be bumpin this shit. Peace.
The D.J. Premier touch. This is still my favorite Fat Joe cut. That gully 90s sound is so missed. Im not the buying crowd anymore so I won't take shots at this new music. Peace keep breathin'.
Dude was real NY... Even as late as the early 2000's, I had friends off E. Tremont on Crotona.. Right across from their spot was an abandoned building with a TS throwup with the little bomb in the corner... FJ, TM, PL. I geeked. Never seen him but apparently he made his rounds in the neighborhood w/o alot of fuss. Pun was from further south, like Simpson/Soundview area,
Sonny in Phoenix you right in the 80's 90's it ment something to he from nyc now i don't know but we got some new kids trying to put nyc back on don q Casanova we here
@@markbaz I been going back to that album for years man. Supastar is easily one of the hardest beats put together. That album and Jeru's _The Sun Rises In The East_ don't get enough credit for putting NY back on the map.
It's unfortunate that this style isn't main stream now. Tough , gritty NYC sound. I might not have grown up in that time ( born in 94). But this to me is true NYC. Back when Gotti was around band the crime rate bring high. 🇺🇸💪🇵🇷
Forever Classic man word up D.I.T.C Forever Big L and Big Pun rest in beats your brothas music will always lives on forever my brotha word up🎤🎤🎤🎶🎧🎵💯💯💯💯🔥🔥🔥🔥
Those shout-outs were something else, it was so hard when Mc's shouted eachother out,friendly comp and respect. Rappers back then were like heroes and shit!.
Imagine if Primo was never existed and where would NY rap would've been without him... damn, that's one of the worts nightmares that i'd have been. That's where GangStarr spirit shines bright light even these days 😤 Lonh live Primo and Rip Guru 🙏
True hip hop anthem..passion is endemc in poverty when you're chasing your dream. This track gets me amped to this day. If you from the hood you could relate to a few things in this, be it 1st hand or 2nd hand. You knew it or live it. Hip hop forever lives!
well.. i agree with both: premo is an outstanding person in hip hop history.. he made more classic tracks than any other person out there.. he did it for 20 years. his shit aint that good the last years, but still better than a lot of other producers. fat joe was great before.. he worked with the best group there ever was.. ditc. legendary. i can say ditc in the same sentence with dj premier. ditc was a real effort for hip hop music.. god bless em all. they changed my life .. premo and ditc
Damn never knew this was a premier beat. I remember living in Cali when this came out. Now I'm in the same hood from Fat Joe. South Bx. I miss this Fat Joe. Real.
One of my favourite Songs & Videos..Love that Black & White Hip Hop Video, they are always the Illest Songs too..Always love that Move Camera angles..Notice a lot of the B&W Hip Hop Videos do that Angle..Dope..Peace.
Nah this is Fat Joe DA GANGSTA from D.I.T.C. Haha nah same one. I still have respect for the man, he made classics that will be there forever. He paid his dues in my eyes.
Wow i just noticed Big Pun for the first time in this videp at 3:56. And Big Pun was the truth on the mic & highly respected & missed by many as one of the best that spit it.
Daniel Manzano Well then what is he lol pretty sure his ethnicity is Puerto Rican but his nationality is American hence why he never needed to learn to speak Spanish
DJ Premier is the greatest hip hop producer of all time. It isnt even a debate anymore.
Fucking facts...
Yep...
To me this was the song that solidified Fat joe as an MC. Masterful production by Premier
This is the FAT JOE i miss
Money changes style the raw street flow gets lost
Real talk👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Beyond real talk!!!
WestSideGunn - Kelly’s Korner Feat. Fat Joe
His shit was real... R.I.P. old hungry ass Fat Joe
I love how this video captures that raw and grittiness of the 90's. One of my favorite beats from Premo.
Dakota Benally Bigup Ahmad Jamal too.
Facts
Pure nyc raw hip hop..my favorite
Tell me it looked so beautiful back in that era. Shit was sooooooo natural.
it really does.. and thattrack was fire too.. you know joe meant everything he said
Definitely one of the best Tracks ever produced to me. Awesome beat and fantastic flow, Fat Joe at his best. DJ Premier just killed the beat. Everybody says Hip Hop is dead, it's just changed like every genre of music. Hip Hop had it's best years in the 90's and we will always 'member them! peace
Damn. I’m 46. Brings me right back to this era. More relevant now than ever. Thanks Premier!!!!!! The 90s golden era will live forever. DMYZ WUZ HERE
The beat is ridiculous 😂preemo was in a league of his own
i was listening to this joint today, and i was like "YOOOOOOOOO" i haven't heard this joint in a hot ass minute...man, i tell ya, i love the 90's...nothing, i mean, nothing is better than the 90's.
no words can describe this era of hip hip. only the music can explain
Classic joe with classic Premo beat what more can you ask for 90's forever
Nada.
90's 4eva
Say what you want about Fat Joe, but when he got a Premo beat, he ripped it to shreds.
Phoenix He ripped shit to shred back then, he had great verses in a lot of songs and features
@@abdthegreat Allot of them wrote by PUN tho. But still he hold is own..
@@IBrokeNHunteRI This was before pun
This was not pun at all, clear differences in how they both rapped.
he didnt rap over this beat first though this is a remix
hands down Premo aka Dj Premier is one of the illest when it came to putting them beats together.. M.O.P Guru (R.I.P), Jay-Z, Nas and plenty others would agree. 90's Music will forever be the golden era of hip hop..
Yo yo check out this posted opinion...
The fukn shit is REAL!!!
Thank you!
This captures the essence of the 90's ...... The golden age of Hip Hop this beat hits my soul
The 90's .....What A Time To Be Alive!
This Beat Captures The Essence Of This Time Period ... #Premo & #Joe
Shout Out To All My 70's & 80's Babies! We Are The True Trendsetters

Peace mafucca i agree🤘
Word is bond, son!
Just snuck in, 1979.. 40 yrs old now and wondering wtf happened to rap.. Forever 90’s east coast for me, if I make my 70’s my old ass will still be bumpin this shit. Peace.
Born in 82 and I miss these days
Gen X baby!!!
Such an underrated classic. That undertone beat is insane!
The original version of this track appeared on fat joes first album in 93 but this version was put on his 1995 album Jealous Ones Envy.
This track is still a masterpiece 25 years later... will continue to live strong 100 years from now... Primo the Immortal.
If that building could talk it would have stories for days!
Long fellow and prospect ave🎉
Back when NY was relevant.
There are plenty of amazing producers out there: DOOM, Madlib, Dilla, Pete Rock, LES, etc. but I think Preemo will forever remain my favorite💯💎
Havoc,Buckwild,Beatminerz,Large Professor,Q Tip,Diamond D,Showbiz,Lord Finesse,Prince Paul and the Beatnuts are also amazing.
Let’s not forget RZA!
The D.J. Premier touch. This is still my favorite Fat Joe cut. That gully 90s sound is so missed. Im not the buying crowd anymore so I won't take shots at this new music. Peace keep breathin'.
Jealous one envy is Fat Joe's best album!!!
This must be one of the better tracks I've ever heard from Crack-man.. Probarly because Primo got the touch of gold!
mayne this beat is just mesmerizing. makes you want to lock it on repeat all day long
Ikr?
That's right
Love this New York whole East Coast melody and flow real hip hop
Preme is so cold he flipped a lyric on here for another classic, Jeru's Can't Stop The Prophet.
Premier never disappoints with his beats.
Dude was real NY... Even as late as the early 2000's, I had friends off E. Tremont on Crotona..

This will never get old
back when being from NY ment something

No it doesn't rap is messed up nowadays NY now sounds like down south rappers and rapping to those dumb trap beats what happened to NY and rap
kadiray dukureh sour ass...stfu
kadiray dukureh
Sonny in Phoenix you right in the 80's 90's it ment something to he from nyc now i don't know but we got some new kids trying to put nyc back on don q Casanova we here
Man the dopest era for hip hop
Time machine hip hop 🔥🔥 God bless the creator of TH-cam 🙏🙏
Fat Joe and DJ Premier 2 of NY finest!Pure raw undiluted hip hop 1000%!
I've been addicted to this beat for a while now. One of the best I've ever heard.
I know you have listened to Premiers work Group Home’s album if not you are going to be extremely happy.
@@markbaz I been going back to that album for years man. Supastar is easily one of the hardest beats put together.
That album and Jeru's _The Sun Rises In The East_ don't get enough credit for putting NY back on the map.
This whole album is fire 🔥
Primo is the muthafukkin illest producer EVER!! I sure miss the old Fat Joe tho...
It's unfortunate that this style isn't main stream now. Tough , gritty NYC sound. I might not have grown up in that time ( born in 94). But this to me is true NYC. Back when Gotti was around band the crime rate bring high.
🇺🇸💪🇵🇷
Preemo So Whassup just bought me here a Classic combo straight up Fyah 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Forever Classic man word up D.I.T.C Forever Big L and Big Pun rest in beats your brothas music will always lives on forever my brotha word up🎤🎤🎤🎶🎧🎵💯💯💯💯🔥🔥🔥🔥
This was, and still is one if my favorite songs! Fat Joe held it down!!! 2019 and on!
Only just started listening to Fat Joe recently , his early albums are brilliant! 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
His first album a Boom Bap masterpiece his second album is also very good.
2019 still dope .... sick and raw
goosebumps even today in 2019 HIP HOP!!!!!
This song reminds me of when I used to hustle Uptown on North Clinton Ave in Rochester NY , word up.
This that Hip Hop that my ears crave ... Respect To all my Hip Hop Headz in every corner of the world ..
Premier never disappoints on his beats
Listening to this makes me think Fat Joe needed a hug badly when he was a child.
We all did
😂😂🤦🏿♂️😂😂
Was 16-17 when I found this JEWEL. It still gives my goosebumps n Ish. Reminds me of how far I’ve come.
I was 20 years old when this dropped in late 1995 I lived that era it was a great time to be a hip hop head.
he is a real and a complete artist! big up fat joe!
This is what made me a fat joe fan. Bought the album off this song. Bro was soooo raw and had flow in the beginning.
Those shout-outs were something else, it was so hard when Mc's shouted eachother out,friendly comp and respect. Rappers back then were like heroes and shit!.
FAX!
Realest Talk..
Imagine if Primo was never existed and where would NY rap would've been without him... damn, that's one of the worts nightmares that i'd have been. That's where GangStarr spirit shines bright light even these days 😤 Lonh live Primo and Rip Guru 🙏
Two words when put together, premier remix, always brings a smile to my face
One of Fat Joe's best tracks.
It's a shame he went all mainstream...
Main Source: "Fakin' The Funk" scratch. "Down on the reel to reel."
Mr. Woods I been wondering what that was for decades thanks man
When NY RAPPERS did black and white videos back then they was the best they was cold and gritty lookin
This look like 95-96 mid 90s flow. Fat joe was nice back then
kadiray dukureh 1994
1994 man.
93 when NYC had. The 2nd record high murder rate
oochie wally 1990 was worse than 1993
@@patattacprod1 i know that my fault but not by much was referring to when this song came out which was 93
DJ Premier beat resonates beyond the stratosphere
whish music was like this ... say what we really go threw ! Peace to my man premier for cuttin the beat
Real....
WORD!!!!!!!UP!!!!!!!!
True hip hop anthem..passion is endemc in poverty when you're chasing your dream. This track gets me amped to this day. If you from the hood you could relate to a few things in this, be it 1st hand or 2nd hand. You knew it or live it. Hip hop forever lives!
this track is classic. fat joe had the talent to be one of the greatest
Classic Joe ❤️❤️
Listening in 2019
ahmad jamal + premier = unbelievable dope !
Premo shoulda dropped this on rza last night
Yeah this and All City's The Actual.
going down memory lane with that one...
This was the 2nd single from his 1st LP "Represent" 92-93
I swear I've always just loved that 90's Gutta New York music and this is what it is boy do I miss the 90s wish I could go back
That shit goes hard .. this song will never be dead it's so realistic and dope. FatJoe ,Premier what the fuck bish!!!
This is when hip-hop was hip-hop! This era won't ever be back 😔
Bury me with a boom box full of jams like this
Twenty years goes by fast
Too fast!
Tell me about it!
My fav Fat Joe joint of all time!! 💯
well.. i agree with both:
premo is an outstanding person in hip hop history.. he made more classic tracks than any other person out there.. he did it for 20 years. his shit aint that good the last years, but still better than a lot of other producers.
fat joe was great before.. he worked with the best group there ever was.. ditc. legendary. i can say ditc in the same sentence with dj premier. ditc was a real effort for hip hop music.. god bless em all. they changed my life .. premo and ditc
Fat Joe was bummy , hungry and on point this is my jam ! South Bronx...,
Damn never knew this was a premier beat. I remember living in Cali when this came out. Now I'm in the same hood from Fat Joe. South Bx. I miss this Fat Joe. Real.
This is one of the realest songs and videos. Make tears come out my eyes man. Shit man!
My Fat Joe favorite song....and Preemo on the beat is flawless #90s
some songs are eternal! this is one!
Went to full flex TS funeral fat joe was there an I thought of how dope he use to be this is a true hip hop classic !!!
Full flex died??? How? Where?
I like the melancholia in the beat ... kinda emphasizes that the life hes talking about is nothing cool but rather sad
Well said
I will always have respect for Fat Joe no matter his commercial status. Hip hop in its purist form..
240p for that real old school sound... know what im saying
One of my favourite Songs & Videos..Love that Black & White Hip Hop Video, they are always the Illest Songs too..Always love that Move Camera angles..Notice a lot of the B&W Hip Hop Videos do that Angle..Dope..Peace.
That 90's feels so good.... Oml
Thats when fat joe was nice....beat is insane...premier does it again 💪💪
"This story takes place, back in the South Bronx,
where at the age of 14 I was already knockin off punks"
crazy shit for real
Yeah - NY was like that back then. By 14 you had to have a name or you couldn't even walk to the store.
The lyrics hit hard, one of my favorites in hip hop
2015 still bumpin this!!!
They were playing this in 1918
2019 fam
Classic track right here! Joey crillz deserves the upmost respect ✊🏼
premo on the track
THAT'S WHY GLAD THEY SMOKED THAT ASS FUCK THE COPS !!!
Edward Hines in
Nah this is Fat Joe DA GANGSTA from D.I.T.C. Haha nah same one. I still have respect for the man, he made classics that will be there forever. He paid his dues in my eyes.
Wow i just noticed Big Pun for the first time in this videp at 3:56. And Big Pun was the truth on the mic & highly respected & missed by many as one of the best that spit it.
is that really him? he was way thinner back then i cant tell
Great year when this was playing out there
Incredible Song. Tony Sunshine getting robbed at 0:44. LOL
Yeah, by Irv Gotti! ;D
thats not tony sunshine
Slappin this in my 91 MPV! ✊😁
This cut is real
WOrd UP!
Maybe my fav DJ Premier beat if I had to pick one
Agreed,we need a stronger Latino presence throughout Hiphop.It makes this jam,these times bittersweet
Fat Joe isn't latino, he doesn't even speak Spanish
Daniel Manzano Well then what is he lol pretty sure his ethnicity is Puerto Rican but his nationality is American hence why he never needed to learn to speak Spanish
Torrey Collins He’s white. Not that he ain’t Hispanic. But he’s white.
And no stronger Hispanic presence is needed. This is Black American culture. Y’all got y’all own music.
congratulations to fat joe to moving up on the goat rapper list #2020. I cried so many times listening to this song over the years.
