Umm.. you need the dictionary for word meanings, so the original comment means not only can she craft sharp verse with a plethora of wordage, but she know what the words mean. Boom. 🎤
Soon the south Bronx beat dropped, I would’ve been out of my seat!!! I remember watching this when it aired, friends and I were in my room losing our minds!! 🔥 🎉
The whole verse is one of the sickest in all of hip hop: "Claiming that you got a new style Your attempts are futile, ooh child You're puerile, Brain waves are sterile, You can't create, you just wait to take, my tape's Laced with malice Hands get calloused From grippin' microphones from here to Dallas Go ask Alice if you don't believe me I get Inner Visions like Stevie See me, ascend from the chalice like the weed be Indeed be, like Khalil Muhammad MC's make me vomit I get controversial Freak your style with no rehearsal Oooh, contraire mon frere don't you even go there Me without a mic is like a beat without a snare, I dare, to tear into your ego We go, way back like some ganja and pelequo Or Coleco Vision My mind makes incisions in your anatomy And I'll back this with Deuteronomy Or Leviticus, God made this word You can't get with this Sweet like licorice Dangerous like syphillis, yeah" -Queen Lauryn Hill 👑
@@redacted5035 God Bless you for knowing the lyrics 🙏🏿! Dr Khalid Muhammad is a true Black revolutionary and the fact that Lauryn Hill said indeed she be like Dr. Khalid Muhammad makes me so proud 👏🏿!
Props to the rhythm section! Lauryn ripped it up for sure but the key change from the bass realizing that the first go was too low for the crowd to vibe with was crowd control genius.
Lauryn Hill was honestly something else. Every time she rhymed, she changed the game. I cant imagine the Fugees wouldve gotten anywhere without her. Pras and Wyclef are dope but shes the real star of this group.
Don't underestimate Wyclef Jean. He wrote some of Lauryn's shit on The Score and Blunted on Reality. Don't forget he is the Nucleus of Fugees and the brains of Fugees. Fuck he came up with the name Fugees.🤣🤣 So dont be hating.
This clip of the fugees gave me chills. It was a golden age of hip-hop. There was so much talent of MCs dropping classic albums. The performance here was bananas.
This is how they made it. I was at Spelman in ATL and they did tons of live shows and ripped it every single time. They got airplay but their shows is what made them. No one did it like them. And those were the days. Shit was dope. Same with Biggie and Wu-Tang, it was an iconic era.
I remember watching this on tv! It was live at the Apollo. It used to come on every Saturday night. They tore the Apollo down that night. Good times. This is the first time I've seen it since then. What memories! Lauren is to me the sickest female lyricist of all time! Word
“I get mad frustrated when I rhyme Thinkin' of all them kids that try to do this for all the wrong reasons” Yep, and all those kids are grown up and still doing it for all the wrong reasons...
I look back on this like damn! we did NOT know how good we had it! We didn’t appreciate like we should’ve when it was here. Not one person should’ve been in their seat from the time they hit the stage!
What was wrong with that crowd??????😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣I would of been hype out of my seat at the first "how many mics?" and I would of been snappin' on Lauryn Hill's verse!!❤️❤️❤️
Lauryn Hill should have put out many more album, she's probably one of the most gifted musicians of this generation. I can't help but think we are missing out.
I'm pretty sure that the girl in the crowd with the khaki blouse dancing in her seat is Ashanti before she made it big in the business I'm sure it's her
it is she's in alot of videos like these, she was at one of xscapes performances as well in the crowd, and i know i seen her in another just can't remember off top
castro21lev Yeah, she was everywhere in the 90s. And she was only a teenager which is the funny thing 😂 She’s in a NY rapper named Allagah (I might’ve gotten his name wrong) music video as well.
AWWWWWWW MAN!!!!!! This hit the spot just now!!!!!! Translator Crew... ...man!!!! The Fugees first album was kind of slept on!!!! But, it was my favorite between it and The Score!!!!!!
I heard this on music choice for the first time the other day. It just caught my ear! So hypnotic and just ILL! Real Hip-Hop! I listened to that WHOLE album. Good stuff. Legendary! Bless all
This is the BEST!!!! FUGEES due to this you all need to get your butts BACK on the stage together!!!!! You all are the BEST!!! Pras is the BEST Hop-Hop dancer in the game!!!! I SWEAR I am in love with Pras!!!! I listen to this mix on a daily basis and I am in LUV 'wit-diz!'
im 16 and i absolutely adore 90s hip-hop!!!! tribe, wu-tang, and the fugees are my favorite groups lauryn is my favorite female rapper, one of the best to ever do it🩷 🎤
Lauryn Hill wasn’t lying when she said she was lyrically gifted. She’s a walking dictionary and thesaurus and she’s drop dead gorgeous. Love her.
Every word in the thesaurus is the dictionary and it’s explained in depth. I don’t think you need both lol
is
Umm.. you need the dictionary for word meanings, so the original comment means not only can she craft sharp verse with a plethora of wordage, but she know what the words mean. Boom. 🎤
She spit a hot 9, not even 16, on “the bridge is over.” I love lauryn but she’s not the best, her fans who buy her tickets would agree with me
Lauryn Hill isnt even in the conversation of best female artists. She is among some of the best male rappers.
1:00 - 1:28 does something to my spirit each and every time.
Hey =)
Is that a freestyle or do u have the name of dis song pliz?
@@frenchy92 The Bridge is Over by BDP (Boogie Down Productions).
@@DavidRichardson95 merci
isis osiris thats why. its in ya blood. nubian blood runs deep
@@DavidRichardson95 None of what she says is in that song
I'm a longtime metalhead, but my god if this isn't one of the best live performances I've ever seen.
Bro gives me the same chills as seeing some of The Chariot's live show. Idk why everyone is sitting down. I'd be losing my shit 😅
Same dawg
Soon the south Bronx beat dropped, I would’ve been out of my seat!!! I remember watching this when it aired, friends and I were in my room losing our minds!! 🔥 🎉
Yo why's it always metal lovers commenting on this kinda music, as if listening to metal means you can't appreciate any other genre 😂
Do you know where I can find the whole concert? Or what the concert/gig was called? Thx
"Brain waves are sterile. You cant create, you just wait to take" THAT WHOLE BAR WAS FIRE
The whole verse is one of the sickest in all of hip hop:
"Claiming that you got a new style
Your attempts are futile,
ooh child
You're puerile,
Brain waves are sterile,
You can't create, you just wait to take, my tape's
Laced with malice
Hands get calloused
From grippin' microphones from here to Dallas
Go ask Alice if you don't believe me
I get Inner Visions like Stevie
See me, ascend from the chalice like the weed be
Indeed be,
like Khalil Muhammad
MC's make me vomit
I get controversial
Freak your style with no rehearsal
Oooh,
contraire mon frere
don't you even go there
Me without a mic is like a beat without a snare, I dare,
to tear into your ego
We go,
way back like some ganja and pelequo
Or Coleco Vision
My mind makes incisions in your anatomy
And I'll back this with Deuteronomy
Or Leviticus, God made this word
You can't get with this
Sweet like licorice
Dangerous like syphillis,
yeah"

Lauren Hill is always fire 🔥

Lauryn Hills considered the greatest female MC to ever rock a mic.
She’s is the G.O.A.T
.LOL IN THIS TRACK Fugees TRYNA SOUND LIKE GOMUNKUL 6
Even when it comes to music you people have to add ' female '
Props to the rhythm section! Lauryn ripped it up for sure but the key change from the bass realizing that the first go was too low for the crowd to vibe with was crowd control genius.

@Salvador Dalí can you write her freestyle down here
Mike T Thank you finally another fan that recognizes Wyclef‘s and Pras’s skill as rappers
chelsea6671 fugees were the whole package.
@Mike T Thank God somebody else said it

She went being booed at amateur night to rocking the stage many years later ❤🎤
I wish I was physically there lol everybody got so hype! !!

And WooOoow if u are high by smthn clean 😈

that old lady in the front? She dead af by at least 20 years. Thats how young I am and old you are. Life be brazy
@@ebscoHOSTpub I'm apparently VERY old because I need translation for everything you said. 🤣🤣🤣
PLEASE RAP AGAIN LAURYN!
You were one of the greatest emcees full stop.
Also...reggae spitting in Hip Hop needs to come back!!!
She was singin at a festival in Paris in september ! :D watch on yt "fête de l'humanité - lauryn hill"
Reggae over hip hop beats still exists. It’s called Dancehall. Check out bounty killer - one general
Im living for this audience participation...especially the auntie in the blue standing in front!!
Lol, ikr...They used to call her Ms. Apollo
D-N- JAE aww cool...i would have been right there with her.
She’s my fav too
This is how they made it. I was at Spelman in ATL and they did tons of live shows and ripped it every single time. They got airplay but their shows is what made them. No one did it like them. And those were the days. Shit was dope. Same with Biggie and Wu-Tang, it was an iconic era.
That Crowd control is crazzzyyy 🔥🔥🔥🔥
That bass player is GROOVIN 😂😂😂
Her saying “nobody can touch what Jah blessed” at 1:11 makes my spirit so happy🥰
If only this freestyle was 10 mins longer... plus the happy base player at 2:37 🤩😍
Now that’s how you hype the crowd!! Really wish the Fugees’ career would’ve lasted longer
This performance might fall into the top 5 category of the hypest performance in hip hop history. Btw, did yall know that was Ashanti @3:23???
omg that is her ! 🤯🤯
I thought it was just me
@@Seanfvd i thought that was you too
And at 1:26
Yes….remember it fondly
I’m confused as to why the majority of the audience is SEATED!!!!! This whole routine was FIYA!!!🙌🏾
I remember watching this on tv! It was live at the Apollo. It used to come on every Saturday night. They tore the Apollo down that night. Good times. This is the first time I've seen it since then. What memories! Lauren is to me the sickest female lyricist of all time! Word
+James Kramer yes they did
no she's one of the sickest lyricists period. no need to put her in the "female" box...
James Kramer what year is this from ?
Yes!! Ashanti was getting down. I'm almost certain that was Ashanti in the crowd.
definitely was her
it was her
3:21 Yoooo!!! Young Ashanti was fuggin it up!!!
“I get mad frustrated when I rhyme
Thinkin' of all them kids that try to do this for all the wrong reasons”
Yep, and all those kids are grown up and still doing it for all the wrong reasons...
FACTS
BIG, BIG FACTS!
Oh, now I remember... THAT'S what music sounds like... I almost forgot.
I look back on this like damn! we did NOT know how good we had it! We didn’t appreciate like we should’ve when it was here. Not one person should’ve been in their seat from the time they hit the stage!
they made the crowd go from 0 to 100. holy cow
From day one Wyclef always let other artists shine..wyclef respect man.
beast mode lauryn
Lauryn Hill is a Goddess
Dude, I used to love hip hop so effin MUCH! It'll never be this good again 😔
Hova1914 to be fair it doesn’t get much better than this
Hova1914 on life on my soul
You lookin in the wrong places for hip hop then my brother, cause this music survives today
Nobody can touch what JAH BLESSED ! And i mean this ouff
Lawd the fugees 😫
They were the first hip hop acts to make you be proud to be from the Caribbeans.
Love the fugees. Love Reggae. This video was so live
Wow how many times they SWITCH IT UP
Was fireeeee
The Fugees was somethin special
This could never happen with today's "top ten" artist!
What was wrong with that crowd??????😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣I would of been hype out of my seat at the first "how many mics?" and I would of been snappin' on Lauryn Hill's verse!!❤️❤️❤️
Fugees we’re the only ones really big on mixing that hip hop with reggae, I really dig that
4 bars and a beat drop… Impeccable crowd control!!!
Lauryn Hill should have put out many more album, she's probably one of the most gifted musicians of this generation. I can't help but think we are missing out.
I enjoy this video like i'm in the croud evrytime i come to watch this... Blessings from Perú!!!!
Real Hip Hop so authentic. In the words of Lauren they can't create they just wait to take
The Fugees bring the house down in this classic episode on stage reggae style Wyclef Jean 2024?????🔥🚬🔥🚬🚬🚬🔥🚬🔥🚬🔥🚬🔥🚬💯💯💯💯💯👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾
I'm pretty sure that the girl in the crowd with the khaki blouse dancing in her seat is Ashanti before she made it big in the business I'm sure it's her

Black privilege is to be associated with such god given natural talent no auto tune.
I really wish I could go to a Fugees concert their music and vibe is unmatched 🖤
The goose bumps all over my body! I’m 40 today and they still hit me as hard as they did when I was 12 years old!
Lauryn Hill is literally the ‘GREATEST’ she the only rapper that can sing, and the only singer that can rap 🔥🔥🔥 and you cant tell me otherwise ✌🏽
Wyclef don't get the respect he deserves 💪🔥
If only she kept spittin', one can only imagine
doesn't get any better than this
This was actually amazing
Nicki ain’t a queen of rap,
is Lauryen!
Who's Nicki? 😊
Say it louder!!
Glad I found the peeps
who ain't scared to speak
Facts the way they need
To be presented and perceived!
They love eachother. Don’t compare them.
Everything from the beginning to 1:20 absolute 🔥🔥🔥
Of course L boogie is on the mic!
Dope and Ashanti in the crowd as a teenager.
hapa katika 2023. Moto!!!
SO WYCLEF HIT THAT
THIS IS HOW YOU MOVE A CROWD!!
