Yo, Ion care what nobody say, he might not have sold the most records or had the flashiest hooks but bar for bar, verse for verse, G Rap is the best that ever done it.
Facts.. plus look at the catalogue. He started doing stuff with Polo, all pioneering classics, then went on to do 456, roots of evil and giacana. All 3 better than any of rakim’s or Kanes solo albums.
How difficut would it be to have Big Daddy Kane, Black Thought, Rakim & Nas all do an album together???? Pete Rock, Madlib, 9th Wonder, and DJ Premier all should produce that album.
Pharoahe spit his verse from the song oh no with mos def and nate dogg . Not tripping because it's a classic verse. This was great but the original is still the best.
You know whats great about this......the original verses are timeless pieces.....they were truely ahead of there time......that era was golden......none of them wanted to sound alike and they were all dope in their own light.....this will always be one of my favorite collaborations of all time....glad i came up in this era
So many Hip-Hop historians on this state. I love it. I gotta find a way to make it to a Roots Picnic next year. On a side note, Mos Def would murder this beat with an original verse.
The audio FOH engineer on this gig is fucking sick he has 10 microphones open the whole time whether he's using Dugan or not the rappers are also cupping the mic which is bad bad bad bad but the FOH engineer keeping them frequencies that want to take off in check good job!!!!!
"If rap was the school, I'll be the principal!" - Big Daddy Kane
Can we get this as an official track
I ain't a child, that's why I don't smile - big daddy Kane 😁

Facts
Biggie admitted to studying G Rap for his delivery. I still think Kane was the illest from that era.
@fuck all touts ftra fap 2020 G Rap was lethal. Best way to describe him. But Kane mastered it all. I see you, my G. Respect.
@@durterebelz I'ma go Rakim on that.

Kool G still outshines everyone in 2021
The greatest anthem in hip-hop history period! !!!
Howard Ellis preach 👌
4,3,2.1 has that title
@@amck72 no
Self destruction and the message is my top 2 of all time
@@stephon4112 cuz it's definitely not 40+ songs in hip-hop called the message 😐😐
Rakim needs to do his thing on this track featuring Kool G Rap
BDK used the same exact verse from 30 years ago. And it still to this day, sounds dope af.
So did Craig G
These lyrics are better than the ones written today!
Golden Era to the. Back pack era mix touch of Gangsta G, with the early 2K.
Craig G verse still sounds refreshing
G RAP lyrics still MONSTROUS
Grand Daddy Kane still got it.
There is NO 'Symphony" without Masta Ace. Period. "Just like a shot from the CANNON, I am the man IN CHARGE"
#FACTS HIM A G-RAP SLAUGHTERED THAT SHIT !!
4 minus 3.
@@eutue 🤔......?
Kool G Rap and Big Daddy Kane..

The original members are still alive... why don't they do another symphony? I would love to see a super group of Big daddy kane, Rakim and Kool G Rap.
Jermaine Parker You're talking a SUPAGROUP. alright.

G rap the 🐐

Big Daddy is so smooth, man. Jeez.
Marley Marl's Symphony is ETERNAL Hip Hop Canon!!! Hope the next gen who remixes it reps it just as well as these cats did!!!
not with the way lyricism has gone backwards
Big up to Black Thought for creating great thoughts
Love that. The essence of the rap game represented properly!
This is what Hip Hop is.... This one is better than The Symphony II but the original is still a banger...
So dope. Thanks for sharing for countries like mine where mcs like Kane and G Rap will likely never come...
Pharoahe spit his verse from the song oh no with mos def and nate dogg . Not tripping because it's a classic verse. This was great but the original is still the best.
Royce did a verse from one of his recent albums as well. I believe the song is Courtesy.
damn, I thought I was the only one that noticed.
yo who was the 10 people that put thumbs down on this , you have to get your ears and intellect checked lol
You know whats great about this......the original verses are timeless pieces.....they were truely ahead of there time......that era was golden......none of them wanted to sound alike and they were all dope in their own light.....this will always be one of my favorite collaborations of all time....glad i came up in this era
