That’s DOPE reading this. In all the years of listening to the album and LOVING IT, I heard a couple of his verses that made me think “Yo, is the one with the squeaky voice actually the nicer one???” The answer doesn’t matter because I love them both!
MAAAAAAAN!! ALL CITY was bangin!! Preemo on the track and the brothas killed the flows!! This was where it satarted for me Rap city days. Why didn't this blow tho?? We need a where are they now on All City!!
Yo when this joint dropped in 98 I was outta town on my last two months maxing out on a 6 year bid. Yo I was home sick and this was so BKLYN everyday me and my mans from BKYLN my dude Khalif from Rochester(rip) used to hold down the whole front row of the day room until rap city came on. Yo this was my fav joint couldn't wait to come home and cop it. Gangstarr Royalty P.E. He got game, Lox/DMX Lil Kim Money Power Respect also used to bang around that time . I came home and copped this joint Priceless was on the back it was dope whew, what a flashback for a nigga!!!
So glad that good music existed during my youth. I feel sorry for anyone born after 1998 and have to listen to the trash that’s infecting the radio and mainstream tv these days.
Maaaaaan, so criminally underrated! It's a shame some of the dopest don't get the recognition they truly deserve. Many classic Rap acts that should've been huge. This is a prime example of that, unfortunately.
All City was one of the dopest groups ever & The Actual one of the illest tracks ever. Production by Premo, what hasn't that man produced!!!. Hip Hop still lives just press that play button!!! ▶
Don't know about that Jimmy but I remember well, they entered the stage with the bomb ass 12" One side Premo mix and Pete Mix on the flip side, now thats the ultimate debut if there ever was one. Seem to recall there album wasn't as tight.
I Remember Hearing These Brothers For The 1st Time On The Tony Touch 50 Mc's Mixtape Spittin' Fire Over The Sunz Of Man "No Love Without Hate" Instrumental...Met Greg Valentine In Speed @ The New Music Seminar Summer Of '98.....Yeah, They Were Overshadowed By The Musical Climate Going On Then....But Mos Def Two Dope Ass Underrated Artists!!
This is my favorite song that dj Premier production i miss the real 90 hip hop music era i remember this rap group all city the album was on point 💯💯💯💯
This is up there with "Nas is like" as one of the illest rap tracks! Both DJ Premier productions. No coincidence there lol brings out the best in emcee. True!!
This was a banger back in 98, which was the last great year in hip hop and when New York came back on top. I guess too much was going on that year for them to blow up
This whole debut album was BANGIN'!!! From the early 2000s in Oahu, Hawaii to Japan in 2010, back to the states in 2023 it still gets heavy rotation in the whip! Wish Mega & Valentine would've made another dope album like their debut. CLASSIC!!!
![Das EFX - Baknaffek (Official Video) [Explicit]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/rGA6shXdb_M/mqdefault.jpg)
People tend to forget how Preemo had the streets on lock!!!
Still one of Premier's NASTIEST beats ever.
I love it when preemo come out of left field with fire shit luke this
That last verse is impeccable

Dude snapped
Right he was flowing 🔥🔥🔥🔥
I miss All-City... highly underrated.💯😥
Severely underrated
Rap City (before The Basement) brought me here!!!
Joe Clair and Lex way before Tigger
The leather jackets was life back then.
New York New York nicks jersey 👌🏾🔥🚬🔥🚬🔥🚬🔥👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯 who’s still here listening to this song2023???
Man, I just listened to this ALBUM!!!!
All City was the combination of the Onyx crew and Gang Starr Foundation!!!
Onyx crew ❤️
This will always be a classic 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Heard it 98 on Westwood show in UK.
Still got cassette lol...big up premier
The Golden Age of 'mainstream' hip hop. We were fortunate to have grown up with it.
No doubt !
"The Actual" is such a classic. Can't forget the B-Side on the Actual 12" called "Priceless" produced by Pete Rock.
My pops had the cassingle & we wore that MF out
I had the vinyl single. This song reminds me of my freshman year of high school.
Priceless is a sick joint
Priceless is not a typical "b-side" joint, it was actually a single that had its own music video
Premo and Pete Rock on the same 12" was amazing.
The fact they are cleaner then 90% of these people today is killing me!! Real hip hop !! #eightiesbaby #eightiesmade
MAAAAAAAN!! ALL CITY was bangin!! Preemo on the track and the brothas killed the flows!! This was where it satarted for me Rap city days. Why didn't this blow tho?? We need a where are they now on All City!!
Nobody has to tell you Prem produced a track, you jus know it’s him 🔥🔥🔥
Signature sound. He use to remix a lot of singles back in the day
Fact❤
this song is still tight. Brooklyn stand up!!
All City was and is still so underrated in the HIP HOP Culture. I bought this CD and still have it every song is fire.
One of the greatest off-brand groups in Hip Hop history
I remember playing the cassette in my walkman 97-98 high school miss those days.
Preemo probably made this beat around the same time in 97/98 as Paula Perry's "Extra Extra" The hi-hat pattern is the giveaway.
canibusnj 97
Prime kept swing on the hats..
I dont think that was the reason. He just uses the same sounds, because it works...
Boombap forever
2023 still bangin this
when going outside was normal and you had to knock on someone's door✊ and say can you come outside😃
Yo when this joint dropped in 98 I was outta town on my last two months maxing out on a 6 year bid.

I don't know why this did not blow up!
One of my favorite Preemo beats
El Light The game wants saturated rappers! This is real rap not that tekashi shit
What?! It did blow up!!
They bodied this joint!
This came out when hip hop was dying to commercial crap. But this was a dope hardcore album. One of my favorites
One of the Most official tracks and mcees indeed! Crazy under rated but only the real can recognize real.
Brooklyn is that Borough...You Heard... Salute to All City Crew... Bedford-Stuyvesant...
Crooklyn!!!!!
Classic New York New York.
So glad that good music existed during my youth. I feel sorry for anyone born after 1998 and have to listen to the trash that’s infecting the radio and mainstream tv these days.
Born in '79 and I completely agree
Maaaaaan, so criminally underrated! It's a shame some of the dopest don't get the recognition they truly deserve. Many classic Rap acts that should've been huge. This is a prime example of that, unfortunately.
This Shit is Still HITTIN
The Golden age of Timbs and Avirex Jackets or Bubble NorthFace. You either stay strapped or get robbed for these pieces of clothing in the late 90's.
I was looking for this. They could’ve done more with this duo
Severely slept on album......I use to rock the shit out of this LP
This my joint still checking it out2021 bring this real Golden era of Hip Hop back.
Still 2021 and beyond , All City 💎
All City was one of the dopest groups ever & The Actual one of the illest tracks ever.
Production by Premo, what hasn't that man produced!!!.
Hip Hop still lives just press that play button!!! ▶
Don't know about that Jimmy but I remember well, they entered the stage with the bomb ass 12" One side Premo mix and Pete Mix on the flip side, now thats the ultimate debut if there ever was one. Seem to recall there album wasn't as tight.
These guys had rhymes for days
2020 & STILL BANGING THIS!!!! CLASSIC 🔥🔥🔥4REAL💯💯💯💯
💯💯💯
💯💯🔥🔥
When being an ALPHA was glamorized.💯
98 classic by Preem....whatever happened to All City? Metropolis Gold was a very solid album
i don't know why they didn't blow up at the time but it could be because they changed their style after their first album
I think they got screwed by their label or something and then ended up disbanding
Oh no, their wiki says their album metropolis gold wasn't successful so they split. Greg valentine still makes hiphop but j mega doesn't seem to have
Agreed! Just finished listening to the album today
Priceless was on the B-Side. Pete Rock production on that one.
Still got this cassette single. Dope track!!
I bought this album when I was High School. I love this joint right here it reminds me of the Rap City countdown that came on the weekends
This is one of my gems, All City Crew
This is Premo at his best, I say one of the greatest hip hop beats of all time 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💯💯💯💯💯
I Remember Hearing These Brothers For The 1st Time On The Tony Touch 50 Mc's Mixtape Spittin' Fire Over The Sunz Of Man "No Love Without Hate" Instrumental...Met Greg Valentine In Speed @ The New Music Seminar Summer Of '98.....Yeah, They Were Overshadowed By The Musical Climate Going On Then....But Mos Def Two Dope Ass Underrated Artists!!
It was Greg Valentine and who was the other big cat,
Bed Stuy own ALL CITY 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 No Doubt Baby🔥🔥🔥🔥
I remember bumpin this tape in my 95 Pontiac Grand Am everyday lol! Album was 🔥🔥!
Big fan of this group. Wish they would've blown up, like they should've.

So slept-on 😪💤💤.
This used to be my JAM! Those conga rolls, the boom bap, the flow, the swag, all of it!

One of Preem's illest and most underrated tracks.

I was a fien for Avirex leathers and pilot jackets during this time. Great Song! Metropolis Gold album was slept on.
This was a banger back in 98, which was the last great year in hip hop and when New York came back on top. I guess too much was going on that year for them to blow up
This whole debut album was BANGIN'!!! From the early 2000s in Oahu, Hawaii to Japan in 2010, back to the states in 2023 it still gets heavy rotation in the whip! Wish Mega & Valentine would've made another dope album like their debut. CLASSIC!!!

Preem is my favorite producer and this might be a top 5 for him. “No di-do-do-doubt”
East NY still fire 🔥
This song was the shit in 1998. I remember watching this video on rap city top 10 on Saturday

Everyone and the label was trying to sound like Primo during this time. I remember
Classic that’s all need to be said!!
Other than didn’t know that was sticky fingers in the video.
