This song reminds me of one of my brothers who just passed away , we used to roll around smoking blunts to this album,. Damn i miss him like crazy .. I love you my borhter always ,
Madlib, Bobby Caldwell and of course MED... as lowkey as underground hip hop music can be - you always seem to find some wonderful recurring quality that just connects it all together
True what 'videodrug' said about the bass line! I like that 'twinkly' sound in there. Sounds like a sample from "Strawberry Letter 23" by the Brothers Johnson.
Abdelkader Bennour Il me semble reconnaitre le sample de Bobby Caldwell - Carry On Si tu aimes le son des années 80, je te conseille cet artiste que les plus grands rappeurs tels que Tupac ont samplé. Saha khouya! ;-)
ciscomars bien vu ! www.whosampled.com/sample/2871/M.E.D.-Can%27t-Hold-On-Bobby-Caldwell-Carry-On/ celle-ci est plus facile à jouer au piano en tout cas :)

Check out the Bobby Caldwell album CARRY ON from where this sample came. It's a weird combination of mid-80s production with that classic yacht rock voice, nowhere near perfect but great at its best.
This gotta be the most slept on beat of all time.
He would sample it from Bobby Caldwell
fact
This song reminds me of one of my brothers who just passed away , we used to roll around smoking blunts to this album,. Damn i miss him like crazy .. I love you my borhter always ,

Beat still fuckin slaps in 2023. Madlib and MED killed this. RIP to the ultra villain, DOOM. And RIP to the late great Bobby Caldwell. ❤

Madlib is the fucking man
meds flow and madlibs production go hand in hand
I'm glad there's more of his music out, when looked for this song in early 2011, there was only 1.
Oh that's a beat
This was one of the best tracks on the album.
Extremely underrated
True what 'videodrug' said about the bass line! I like that 'twinkly' sound in there. Sounds like a sample from "Strawberry Letter 23" by the Brothers Johnson.
stones throw artists are too dope
Heard this on a video from a stones throw concert and was like hold up I've been sleeping on this.
Madlib make any rapper sound good
except kanye

Simas Carvalho SB not true for every artist. madlib beats are great tho.

That outro beat is tough
Respect From Brazil

[Intro]
What up ?
Rock, uh-uh
Yeah, yeah, okay
We gon' do one like this y'all
Uh, Listen up
[Verse 1: MED]
We was young niggas off liquor in the street lights
Dice games, and street names, everybody tight !
House parties get the mic and tell the DJ
Bullet holes in the High school hall ways
And won't fade like niggas blaze, stress all day
I'm talking Kane, KRS, Cube
Flavor Flave, Slick Rick, gold chains
Before escalators were two ways, the time a dollar split two ways
We got a little older, search for new things
Some turned out athletes some dealers, some joined gangs
Friends is enemies, women is two-faced
Spilt liquor for all my people who's now graves
Homies and cages, traps sent away for ages
Rap kept me on this track for fadin'
To my niggas on these blocks that's hot or not
These memories sometimes is all we got
Ain't nothing like Memory Lane, but in my head I ear my Mom that said
[Sample : Bobby Caldwell]
And how many times will I told you ?
You can't hang on to the past
[Verse 2: MED]
I remember, days of kool aid stains on the shirt
The youngs squirts, run under bleachers looking up skirts
When wearing turtlenecks and overalls worked
Late for class lying (Damn where's my home work ?)
For first hustling clocking a small knot
Slipping with your whole sack on you, we didn't think cops
Talk thru boxes, Different color of Reebok stripe socks
Mama jokes leading to slap box
Everybody and their cousin is Hip-hop
Rarely did us brothers duck strays or get shot
Still niggas on this block still having not
Sometimes these memories is all we got
Ain't nothing like Memory Lane, but in my head ear my Mom that said
[Sample : Bobby Caldwell]
And how many times will I told you ?
You can't hang on to the past

wooooooooooo!
Yeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
I can see this pumping in a GTA 6 radio station
@NERV1233 Fair enough, I think the problem was I was looking on an iPad, and not all videos show up on the mobile version.
Dopeness!!!
I haven't this in a while. Omg
Damn this is dope - any recommendations for music like this ?
Planet Asia, MF Doom, Quasimoto.
+Asheru Assiene Check out Freddie Gibbs Pinata album, produced by Madlib. You won't be disappointed.
+Asheru Assiene Lootpack!! Dope ass group including Madlib, Wildchild, and Dj Rome. Stones throw records.
+Asheru Assiene Actually look up Hityawitday by Lootpack
Similar type of beat, very bouncy.
Asheru , Blu, Nujabes, Substantial
