If u from age like 27-35 these songs are very special. Every generation has an advantage and ours is the ability to have heard this era as like teens but can appreciate all the surroundin eras past and present. Me personally i prefer this sound and wish it would come bacc. But at least i truly got to experience it.
@@larenzocizzle9371 every era has good music. There is still good music in 2019. The only difference between then and now is good quality music was mainstream now the trash songs are mainstream. The quality is hidden underneath all the rubble. If all you listen to is the radio then you would have that type of opinion.
Music is literally a time machine. When I hear this is takes me back to being the same age as I was when I first discovered it and the nostalgia is so powerful. Music is amazing.
Currently 32 years old married with two babies but this song always brings me back to junior year of high school 🥰 and 106th and park how time flies💙 November 2019💙
Baby, Avant on the hook was too perfect on the hook. I’m in the last year of my 20s and damn I miss all my childhood/teenage music. Hell, I even cut up to both my parents and grandparents music
Let's take this time to appreciate Avant for this classic while he's still alive with us. I miss the early 2000's and the music. Glad you were apart of my childhood and making it special. Thank you, Avant.
@@elhajjmalikel6266 That's a rumour. A false one. He himself has denied it. And even if he was dying, why "appreciate" him now even though he's been out since the early 2000's. Give people their props while they're alive and healthy instead of saying this fake shit when you think they're sick and dying SMH.
Lloyd Banks has a bunch of good songs, but this is one of his GREAT songs. For real. I was 20 years old when this came out. 40 years old now and still enjoying it.
This was not only a good song.but the video was perfect...that leading Lady was BEAUTIFUL 😍🥰such a beautiful black queen. 👑🖤 Back when. You didn't mind watching videos
Best lyricist, but 50 was the only one that knew how to put a good together in terms of structure... thanks to Jam Master Jay that had him write for months until he got it right
@Tebza Modisane they dropped him because he started dissing them, and started acting like he better than them. plus he ain't the best that's 50, the dude that discovered him
Something about music from the 90s and early 2000s that just resonate through your body in a way I can't explain. It could be knowing you can never go back in time, or a reminder 'good times' can't never never be forgotten.
Kandii2Flyy and it sounds atrocious! I don’t really like rap at all. I think it is a joke. I feel like it’s all about the image of the singer or rapper and they are all Clowns! But I do have the upmost respect for older stuff especially from the 80s and 90s and maybe early 2000s. Rap today is pathetic in my opinion. Every track sounds the same and it seems like if it’s over two months old it’s not cool anymore haha. So gay. People need to listen to real music that was made by talented black.
We had it good in the early 2000s man.. Life was simple, Music was good same with sports.. Now everything seems complicated and confusing. TH-cam is the closest we'll ever get to an actual time machine
@@katenheget outta here idiot judging people don’t you have some a plus parenting to be doing what are you doing in the comment section that’s bad parenting lol
torria Williams what's going on my love I'm just kicking back decide to go through my phone seeing you so what's happening just kick it back like I said watching the football game on the Cowboy fan can I be your friend
It makes me wanna cry knowing that Banks sampled this song from Natalie cole and knowing that she recently passed thats so sad.I'm glad hip hop samples musical legends.
This beat reminds me of Christmas. LOL! I always listen to this during the winter for some reason. Takes me back to 04-06 when G-Unit dominated the rap game. I'll never forget the g-unit era of hip hop.
Trust me bro I feel you man I'm always teary eye cos it makes me go back to when I had crushes, when life was simple and the feeling I had for the songs when I was young I still feel them today 😔
Still know the lyrics by heart to this day!The video and the melody! Used to be obsessed, i was 14 then. The mid late 2000s was just 🔥🥹♥️. Used to think about my sumner crush listening to this. Those lyrics were grown,sexy and kinda adulterous listening to it as an adult 🤣
I can't believe these tracks are already around 10-15 years old... Not just this track, but this type of era of music... I wasn't born until early 1998, but I still remember tracks similar to this when my older sister would play them. Really brings back some good childhood memories!
back when music had classic written all over it, man this song brings back memories I miss them good ol days. I am getting this time machine ready to go back, your more then welcome if you want to come. 🕑💺

I'm 26& I never get sick of it.
Very special indeed ❣️💯✅

Isn't it strange when you hear a song from so many yrs ago it still has that effect on you as if Time stood still ?
Mannnnnnn wish I could bring back when it was real love, am sixty two still have that high school heart 💋🤙👍
It feel like time did stood still
It's called nostalgia. It's normal :)
Yesssssss!!! It came on the radio and I started dancing just like I used to!! You're so very right!!! 💯🔥🔥🔥
word it felt like 2004 again
Back when hip hop was 3 great verses and a great hook
I am so grateful to have been able to witness this era of real music man
witness me senpai!!

I'm with you 💯
I was 12 sane here I’m still bumping it & his new album. I miss G-Unit & all the music from this time.
I was 18 when it was released. I’m 37 now. Wow 😂
I was 16 when this came out. This was fuego y todavia is. Music from 98 to 2010 was heat rocks for me.
I was 13 brings back so many good memories🥹😊
Lloyd Banks was never as big as he should have been. Had the talent to be a superstar
he stuck to the g code
+dwane hargrove Agreed
+dwane hargrove he just lazy. i agree with you tho. imo banks the greatest doa
+Michael Mansouri He's too quiet to be a star
+Alexandre Poirier Ok, since when have we EVER heard of a rapper saying, 'Nah, I'm done, I made enough money'!
Ain't no G Unit without Banks and Buck
Amen
Eye
Fuck buck he didn't start with them it was banks yayo fif from the block i seen them selling drugs with my own eyes buck wasn't there
For real
And you forgot Tony Tayo too and mobb deep and Olivia
That feeling of accomplishment you get when you find a good ass song you havent heard in while..
Lmao yes I was happy asf when I saw this pop up in the suggestion list
Frfr
Brandon Kaeo Instantly brings back those memories associated with this song
Yes , good throwback
It's honestly not even that good
The girls dancing behind Lloyd was killing it effortlessly! They really snapped.
Fr though

Lol saaaaame
Hey you!
Shana Zhu can’t forget about Rap City. We’re about the same age and I agree. Those were the days
Same here... married with two girls.. 32yrs as well....
Lloyd Banks and Fabolous had that formula down
And both got to feature KD Aubert in their videos
@@Joe_Parmesan That wasn't a coincidence either. People never catch the connection between so into you and karma...listen closely ;)
Punchline Kings
They got the same voice
Sure DID.
500k debut album under the biggest name in hip hop. He should have been a superstar
I think people forgot how avant was laying them tracks back in the day (fire)
They know, everyone who grew up in that era like me, knows this.
Avant was always on top, he stayed "separated " from the bottom !
Facts
He didn't even make the album version.
new philmz Avants version sounds better than da album version and das fact ‼️
I miss these quality songs. Nowadays, all you hear is "Humana Humana Humana... Skurr Skurr... Bow Bow!!" Lord help us.
😂
Facts😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂
Wtf is skurr skurr???
😮😂💀
Dancers don't get nearly enough credit, them two sistas in the background killed it!!!
I watch this video once every couple of months, but came here specifically for this comment lol. They were going in!
They killed it!!
They sure did! Chocolate sistas ❤

they are killing it wish they showed more of them
Just remember who played who first ‼️
Yup i aint married
where my donkey! fuk your lucky that your old lol
this hook is so real, timeless, and catchy af 🔥🔥🤦🏾♂️
This whole track is a blueprint for a rap sine and singing hooks , still banging in 2024
Baby, Avant on the hook was too perfect on the hook. I’m in the last year of my 20s and damn I miss all my childhood/teenage music. Hell, I even cut up to both my parents and grandparents music
Kristyle Amear really

Kristyle Amear just turned 29 and I agree. I’m bumping all that good stuff people will soon forget.

Yea I agree
Avant is a good singer but Banks wrote the entire song
Essa musica em 2023 é top
Lloyd Banks has a bunch of good songs, but this is one of his GREAT songs. For real. I was 20 years old when this came out. 40 years old now and still enjoying it.
If you think Banks doesn't have hits you're tripping. Underrated
Cedde La_Soul word up !
PLK's freestyles are BETTER than MOST rappers albums💪😈
Facts
There will never be another era of hip-hop as great as this..
Facts
The 90s and early to mid 2000s will always be the best
“I am the one you denied; you pushed me off every time I tried, but I’m alright” 🎼❤️ Who’s here with me in 2019??
Me
"Im able to swallow my pride and put all the bullshit to the side if you're ready to ride!"
👌👌
Me!!! ... But did anyone notice at the end he put he's crew together so he didn't sound soft because he made a lovey dovey song! 😂😂
David Hale Yess I noticed that 😂😂 Personally I love the lovey dovey songs better 🥰 🎶
This was not only a good song.but the video was perfect...that leading Lady was BEAUTIFUL 😍🥰such a beautiful black queen. 👑🖤 Back when. You didn't mind watching videos
Lloyd Banks was the best In Gunit.
period.
Thats a fact
2019 still jamming to this hit
Best lyricist, but 50 was the only one that knew how to put a good together in terms of structure... thanks to Jam Master Jay that had him write for months until he got it right

My favorite song by Lloyd Banks, and Avant added that extra touch to it to make this track a hit.
I like “Smile “ that video was so sweet it made me smile “pun intended fully”

The Game and Lloyd Banks are the best rappers in G-Unit
SPIT the TRILL I would say Lloyd and yayo
Banks killed this 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I miss the days when rappers actually got R&B singers to sing the hooks to their songs. Nowadays they just do the singing themselves.
