@@DexTVReactsLyrics of Fury, no disrespect, it’s gonna blow your mind. You might want to peep Know The Ledge(Knowledge), It was on the “Juice” soundtrack, first then Lyrics of Fury! Rakim is THE God MC, others say that they are a God MC, but Ra is really the one. Peace
This is one of my favorite songs from him. There is literally no hook between the verses. He says the hook at the very end of the song. Absolutely, incredible!
DEX glad you enjoyed this. Just a reminder for context- This was at the inception of Hip Hop. The word MC (Master of Ceremony) meant your function was to move the crowd at a park jam or small venue. So that is why you hear DOPE BEATS, beat drops, scratching and crowd participation. There really was no MTV, INTERNET, BIG BUDGET VIDEOS back then. Try KRS ONE- MY PHILOSOPHY
The 45 king actually made this beat for someone else but gave it to eric b. Eric b took credit from the 45 king. Then about a few weeks later the 45 king created a remix to microphone fiend in which he got credit for.
You should probably react to Big Daddy Kane “Set it Off” next. People in Rakim’s camp used to say a line in this song was about him. Just like people in Kane’s camp said lyrics in “Microphone Fiend” was about him. It was the rap battle most of us hip hoppers back then wanted to hear that never happened.✌🏾
Let's define it this way... Rakim was a musician as well and did make some of the tracks but it's just a honorary thing as to the foundation the DJ was instrumental and 1st in the building blocks of the culture, the emcee came later. So many groups back the named the DJ 1st. Like for example DJ Jazzy Jeff and The Fresh Prince was their group name, Will Smith used his actual name after they broke up.
@ I still listen to paid in full once a month, commuting from home and work. My melody and Eric b. is President & of course I know you got soul. My melody has always been my favorite song because of the beat & melody.
There's so many joints dude has that are just so top tier it's crazy fam. I'm glad you're reacting to his catalog because it just may be the most important catalog in hip hop. Merely because of his impact and influence. Most of the top rappers have gone on record to say he's the reason they were inspired to rap. When you read, hear and see him you can see the blueprint of modern hip hop in real time. Plus, his flow and lyricism is unmatched til this day. He's definitely "the bar" or "the Grail" of this genre and culture. Salute to you brother, by far your channel is my favorite and the best one to date with these reactions. Glad i came across it.
I'm glad you here! Love having real hip hop heads in the building wit me. I remember Pac and other great artist talking about how great he was and calling him the goat but to finally hear it is dope. And he dont cuss?! Thats impressive!
I Love your enthusiasm when you react to #GoldenEraHipHop. Rakim is widely recognized as The #GodMC. Keep doing your thing Young King and you will discover #PureDopeHipHopFromTheSoul that still gives me chills when I listen to it close to 4 decades later. #Timeless #Classic.
Thanks for tappin in! Its dope discovering new music especially this music from the golden era. It got a different feel to it. Key word you used was TIMELESS! Thats a sign of greatness.
Lyrics of Fury!!! Also "Keep em Eager to Listen", "Follow the Leader"or "Kill em Again!! All dope, lyrical tracks. Kill em again and eager to listen are low key slept on tracks...dope with no radio play. Deep cuts.
This is a high quality reaction channel It looks good it sounds good and the actual reactions are smart and genuine. Lyrics rarely go over his head and if it does he asks questions and does research to gain more context. There are alotta good channels but they do main stream stuff. He does everything. My guy reviewed a Frank Sinatra song I was trippin😂
"High quality reaction channel" sounds amazing lol I appreciate that! I got range man lol I wanna do more artist like Frank and Sammy Davis but this 90s hip hop got me in a chokehold lol thanks for tappin in, I always see you in the comments. You are appreciated!
Rakim did some of the beats. Marley Marl did some early stuff as well. Then Paul C and Large Professor took over for the third album. You need to do “The Ghetto” and “The Mystery” to see another side of Rakim.
Dex TV,,,,, im telling u fam!!!! U are right now on top of the Rakim reactions vibe!!!!!!! Now it’s time for u to react to Rakim’s “Juice “ Know the Ledge”👀👀👀 ,,,, Let The Rhythm Hit Em” & “Move The Crowd” 🎤🎤🎤🎤🎤🎤🎤🎤🎤🎤🎤 Let’s go!!!!! Dex TV🎤🎤🎤🎤
One of the greatest things about this track is that it is just one verse….straight fire!! Check this track out: Rakim - The Saga Begins (Produced by the legend Pete Rock) #Bars
Bro you have to react to rakim "its been a long time" and "waiting for the world to end" where rakim really spits. Rakim is top 3 definitely in mine. Nas , pac, rakim.
Everyone nowadays tries to minimalize Eric like he was some lame or something. Eric is who put Ra in the game, and anyone paying attention can easily see that Ra’s stuff without Eric sounds very different. It ain’t the same, so it has to be Eric’s influence in these tracks that make a huge difference sonically.
Rakim made 80% of his music you got tha other part correct Ra thought it would make sense for Eric B to be tha producer for tha group stand up guy stuff he got ripped off after showing his loyalty for tha group stand up
You might be ready for “Know the Ledge “ now. It’s from the Juice soundtrack if that’s more motivation for you 😂😂
@@chillyice3573 lol bet! Y’all want Know the Ledge or Lyrics of Fury next?
Lyrics of Fury is one of them ones!!! At least 20 minute reaction!!@DexTVReacts
@@DexTVReactsLyrics of Fury, no disrespect, it’s gonna blow your mind. You might want to peep Know The Ledge(Knowledge),
It was on the “Juice” soundtrack, first then Lyrics of Fury! Rakim is THE God MC, others say that they are a God MC, but Ra is really the one. Peace

Grandmaster Flash and the Furious 5- The message. Way ahead of it’s time for 1982
Greatest rap song of all time and it’s not close
This is one of my favorite songs from him. There is literally no hook between the verses. He says the hook at the very end of the song. Absolutely, incredible!
Eric B. & Rakim - Don't Sweat The Technique
@@jaesan5872 got it on the list!
Rakim refrences alot of pop 80's movie culture in this track , like Lethal Weapon, Tales From The Darkside, Gremlins and The Reanimator
DEX glad you enjoyed this.

They sampled the Average White Band - School Boy Crush. Scottish dudes who are funky as hell!

Another thing about Rakim is that he never smiles.
“I’m saying im better than yall 1000 different ways” well put!
I did it! Check it out ----> th-cam.com/video/TAniFPg9wKg/w-d-xo.htmlsi=I3pq4C3LJgAMxOlM
CLASSIC
You have not heard him until you listen to Eric B. is President and I know you got soul.
Set 'em straight is another banger...

Rakim is the Michael Jordan of hip-hop. He is the greatest lyricist ever.
“I know you got soul” Rakim drop four letter words once or twice.
That part about Gremlins after 12 midnight is about a movie called "The Gremlins". The Gremlins acted up after midnight.
The greatest one verse songs of all time!
All time greatest M.C. #1 Rakim Allah the God #2 Nas God's son.
I can tell you from up north.
@Bighjr88 No doubt
@ Now rakim I get with at #1 but nas @ #2 ,where I’m from we wouldn’t say that because we like so many different artists & songs.
@ I still listen to paid in full once a month, commuting from home and work. My melody and Eric b. is President & of course I know you got soul. My melody has always been my favorite song because of the beat & melody.
@@Bighjr88 I have Nas as #2 because of his consistent quality of content all the way up to this day.

Krs 1 my philosophy
What hip hop song f wit this one none
Everyone nowadays tries to minimalize Eric like he was some lame or something. Eric is who put Ra in the game, and anyone paying attention can easily see that Ra’s stuff without Eric sounds very different. It ain’t the same, so it has to be Eric’s influence in these tracks that make a huge difference sonically.
If u see a top 10 GOAT list and Rakim ain’t on it somewhere that list is 100% invalid! Pay it NO mind‼️
Please react to... Eric B is President
Beanie Sigel-“Jadakiss Diss”
🦾
Mahogany
Rakim made 80% of his music you got tha other part correct Ra thought it would make sense for Eric B to be tha producer for tha group stand up guy stuff he got ripped off after showing his loyalty for tha group stand up
