I'm about to be 55 white female family from Brooklyn but I was born and raised in Jersey City🎉and Brooklyn double dutch,music 🎶 and dancing was my life!!!!
D. Im 54. And these were the friggin best days of my life. Studio 54. Limelight. Romeo n juliettes. Funhouse. Bensonhurst brooklyn NY. Yea baby. Nothing will beat the 80s

You think anything Eminem did can come even close to this classic?, I cringe when brothers say he's in a top ten, 99% of Em's music is garbage, glad Snoop exposed the mediocrecy
Being 48, I was 16 when we were jamming to this song. No cell phones or social media. No distractions. Just good music, a keg of beer, and good friends.
It's almost criminal that Rob Base hasn't been asked to perform this during a Super Bowl Half Time Show - There's no way this song wouldn't have people out of their seats!
No Cursing, No violence, No guns, No disrespecting or degrading women.. you can’t help but bust a move listening to this joint.. BRING BACK THE REAL MUSIC!!!
Most of my friends at school were Metallers in the eighties but still loved this too. I couldn't understand the appeal of proper rock music back then but I love that now too.
This song deserves huge speakers in the trunk of your car no matter how old you are!! Just play it every once in a while!!😅!! I'm old enough to remember when this came out. Those were GREAT years for dance music!!🎉🎉🎉🎉❤
Rick V White people didn’t enslave your ancestors for 300 years either...with an additional 70 years of Jim Crow and other legislation purposely made to oppress a certain demographic(Redlining, etc.). And by the way, I have a Master’s degree just in case you needed to know. However, this is hip hop...made by the oppressed. Now, the #1 music genre in the world.
Richard Oki I know how massive this song was and still sounds great. I was in my teens when this was first played. And yes I’m still playing this video ✌️👍🤪
I remember in high school a friend popped in a cassette tape and said check this out! I loved it ...48 years old and my neighbors are hearing this now.. still love it...
Hell yes!! You are my age and I love this song still too!!! I used to go to the club on the weekends and dance my ass off!!! Lol those was the stress free day's, no real worries, and I didn't have my Son's back then! LOL
@@vanessafowler9652 oh yeah I see, time only flies when you having a lot of fun. I feel a good foundation with open communication and mutual respect can withstand anything. I would like to be friends if it’s ok by you.
A big clubber in Germany in the 80s. A German DJ asked me to use my knowledge of American club music to buy and bring him what I thought his club clientele might like. The first song I brought him was this. He put this on and you would have thought someone threw money on to the dance floor: The place just went nuts. The 80s: _Lived 'em. Loved 'em. Miss 'em._
I'm 66-years old, and this is one of the songs I've chosen for my Retirement Party! I've been listening to it since it's inception, and it never gets old, only better!
in Feb 1992, I watched in awe as a completely empty dance floor become instantly packed with at least 200 people when this beat dropped .the only song on the planet that will absolutely get every human being rump shaking in the blink of an eye.
Same thing back in the mid 90s at a Filipino club called Manila Chef in Bremerton, Washington. When this jam started, all of the girls got on the floor
I was 18 & met some Marines on leave playing pool, Jeff, Jeff & Jeff 🤣 anyways one of their buddies made me a mixed tape and this was one of the songs on the tape, along with some 2 $hort. Man I had some good times back then. If any of those Pendleton Marines remember that time at The Golden Eight Ball in Phoenix, AZ let me know. We were young once…
So ironic and sad that both Biz and DJ EZ Rock both passed away, at YOUNG 50+, from a seizure and a stroke. They combined to make 1988 through 1991 super, super fun ! God-bless, rest in peace fellas!!

@@user-hr3di5od3n, your judging current music by what's offered by Top 40 radio only shows that you're very ignorant about current music and are just a fool trapped in the past.

74 million isn't bad at all for a song that came out in the late 80s. Most hip hop from the decade barely cracks 20M if even That said this isn't even an official video posted by the official channel, the songs you see that have hundreds of millions were posted by official channels in the mid 2000s so they have a larger audience with more time to gain views
Maybe the first song we learned all the words to! 🎤 This was back in the day before you could Google lyrics. Oh, no - you just learned the words from playing the song over and over and over. 😎

I was 21 in the navy reserve doing my weekend reserve time in San Diego at a dance club in TJ and when this song came on it made you wanna dance. Best time of my life late eighties early nineties. Good music and youth.

Oh man oh man, I came across Apollo 440 Stop the Rock, then recalled this one from some other PS2 game, typed in "woo yea, woo yea" and found it after all these years. Crazy how after so many years you can find something by accident and recall everything so vividly.
I’m 51 and this song is still one of my very favorites. Brings me back to those L. A. days in the 80s… Oh the 80s. Kids today, glued to their phones addicted to technology, have NO idea.
I was a cop in Baltimore when this song hit the radio. In the summer, 4×12 shift I would literally hear this song everywhere and all night long! As a white cop, the guys standing on the corner would yell when I drove by in my car blasting this song with the windows down! Ah,what memories!

For sho'!! I love it!!
i turn 278 next month and i still love this song !!
That beat is probably one of the best beats in hip hop
It sounds like they sampled "Set it off (on the left yall)"
Both the beat and the chorus are a sample of 'Think (about it)' by Lynn Colins, it's sort of the bridge of that song.
This beat *IS* hip-hop.
As of this post, this track is 28 years old... and still makes people get up and dance.

@@user-hr3di5od3n, your judging current music by what's offered by Top 40 radio only shows that you're very ignorant about current music and are just a fool trapped in the past.
It’s freaking awesome by all times standards.
No good standards in todays music
Late 80s, and 90s were the best for rap/hip hop. They did it with no internet, just hard work and getting it done! Putting in the hard work!
Absolutely. Born in 1974. Got the 80s and 90s😎🙋
real hip hop will never die
Yep, the (very) late 80's and the early 90's were my club days. They had the best dance songs.
Word up!!!!
Complete 80s and early 90s
OMG🤩😍🤭🎉Junior high/high school jam back in the day!
Forever and ever and ever a classic.
Sheels1976 Indeed
Sheels1976 hi where do u live
Sheels1976 i was born in 1976 also
Sheels1976 whoa you’re gorgeous
Sheels1976 YES!!!!!!!!!! YES!!!!! 💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯It gets played EVERY SUMMER SINCE IT CAME OUT THAT SUMMER BACK IN THE DAY!!!! STRAIGHT 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 STRAIGHT UP HOT CLASSIC
Back when hip-hop was clean and could be played at kids' parties lol
as we all know music is best when it can be played at kids parties lmao

@@joedatius Not best, just appropriate. There are things grown folks listen to that kids have no business hearing.
Nwa exist
Only 74 million views? Even if you don't generally listen to Rap Hip Hop there's no denying this one was historic and monumental.
A firkcin classic for us that didnt even like hip hop@
@@simonphelps5793 Update: now over 75,000 views... STILL TOO LOW! This thing was a pop culture phenomenon.
76 million in July of 2024.
74 million isn't bad at all for a song that came out in the late 80s. Most hip hop from the decade barely cracks 20M if even
That said this isn't even an official video posted by the official channel, the songs you see that have hundreds of millions were posted by official channels in the mid 2000s so they have a larger audience with more time to gain views
im pretty sure ive also heard it used in like 10 different commercials over the years
Maybe the first song we learned all the words to! 🎤 This was back in the day before you could Google lyrics. Oh, no - you just learned the words from playing the song over and over and over. 😎
Still jammin' this one in Sept 2020... glad I was a young adult and a US Marine during this time frame...
Same here devil dog! SEMPER FIDELIS!
From my family to yours sir. We appreciate your service and all you do for this country. Our hats off to you. If you are ever in St. louis your meal is on me.
Me too
Yes this n the humpty Dance 😂😂
Cooks, yes, always Faithful. Thank you both for choosing that lifestyle and forever earning the title United States Marine, all respect to every branch of service, but the Marines as I’m sure you both know is the toughest branch to join and become a part of. My deepest respect to you both 🙏💯🇺🇸
"I wanna rock right now, I'm Rob Base and I came to get down. I'm not internationally known, but I'm known to rock a microphone. Cause I get stupid, I mean outrageous. Stay away from me if you're contagious..."

This generation will never understand real music. 80s 90s best era 😊 🔥
Absolutely, they never will. They will also never know what it meant (and still means) to us.
The days of innocence and of pure, raw FUN!!
Sho nuff!!💃🏾
The 60s 70s were more impressive, coming from a millennial 😄
@@chefthenson654 ,
Innocence,by what definition. I think todays generation is much more innocence!
This song will never ever get played out FACTS !!!
This song brings back good memories. You don't hear lyrics like this anymore. Those were the good days and damn they were good.
I love how innocent, pure and all bout the music and commraderie that old school hip hop had...
Yessssss,surely missed!! Come back good raps/beats....HIP HOP NEEDS YA!!NOT
@@superdave772 I just subbed your channel.
dam girl your needed
Yo wonder woman,you better be over 45 to say this??
One of the biggest hip hop hits of the 1980s. A tremendous smash hit. This jam was bumpin from every car in every hood in the late 1980s!!
That "I wanna rock right now" got sampled in thousands of tracks...
And Slick def created a whole generation 🔥🔥🔥
Back when I recorded music on cassette tapes off the radio 😂😂😂
And hoping that the FCC wouldn't find out in some way LOL
We were poor so i did this not even 12 years ago 😂
Yyuujuiiiiiiiooooooo
OMG and I used to get pissed when the DJ talked too much or stopped the song early!!! Those were the days...
Lol same here 😆
This song was huge, i was 12 when this came out, the period from 86-96 was unreal, rap helped me grow from a 10 year old kid to 20 year old man, I'm 47, April 16, 2023, 11:00 a.m
I was 27, and I'm jammin' off it right now

Straight up Hip Hop!
Life was A LOT better back in these days. I was a freshman in high school when this came out.
Teddy Riley very seldom misses
I was 21 in the navy reserve doing my weekend reserve time in San Diego at a dance club in TJ and when this song came on it made you wanna dance. Best time of my life late eighties early nineties. Good music and youth.
This song will always go hard! It'll never get old! 🔥🔥🔥
I'm Hard right now.... wanna touch?
From "The Agent" Soundtrack
Me gusta esta canción, a pesar de que nunca la escuche en su época, .... pero ahora amigo mío, siempre te encuentras con estas joyas encondidas que esperan a ser descubiertas
This will always remain a CLASSIC! Hard to believe it's already 30 years old...
word
Turns 31 this year 2019 lol
TIME FLIES
1, 2, 3...

When times were less complicated and a lot more fun!
when this song came out everybody was playing it in my neighborhood...Everybody!
Amen to that...
Things were still complicated, we just didn't notice as much. We were just having fun. 🤣
@@carollott2580 true... crack was definitely a thing. Some guy sold my dad a VCR once that was just a bunch a bricks with the face of a vcr. my dad was pissed lol
Lizy Colina you about 40 and up
This was huge back in the day.
Yes it was!!!
I hear this song on GTA San Andreas and My Name is Earl
haha lmao @ the sexual chocolate pic
Miss L I did too. Miss those days.
Dj irão campo
Oh man oh man, I came across Apollo 440 Stop the Rock, then recalled this one from some other PS2 game, typed in "woo yea, woo yea" and found it after all these years. Crazy how after so many years you can find something by accident and recall everything so vividly.
I’m 51 and this song is still one of my very favorites. Brings me back to those L. A. days in the 80s…
Oh the 80s. Kids today, glued to their phones addicted to technology, have NO idea.
These kids today.................
Ahh sounds accurate for a boomer
@Fun 4Life- I'm 51 also. Those were great times. We were blessed to be teenagers during that time. I had so much fun.
Mam with all due respect . You seem to be acting like we don’t do anything else . We have lives outside of technology
@VS4861 Bish, boomers were sleepin at home while we were out partying unfurling the universe and shit.
This takes me back to high school, EVERYONE WAS DANCING to this!!!!! ... as a matter of fact, WE STILL ARE DANCING TO THIS!!!!!
Truth!
The first 54 seconds of this video are absolutely amazing.
the whole song is amazing
The first 5:11 minutes of this video are absolutely amazing.
Just the first 54 seconds??? I've loved this for over 30 years!!! 💕
Legend all

"Stay away from me if you're contagious." Rob Base the prophet.
I am pretty sure people were aware of infectious diseases in 1988.

I was a cop in Baltimore when this song hit the radio. In the summer, 4×12 shift I would literally hear this song everywhere and all night long! As a white cop, the guys standing on the corner would yell when I drove by in my car blasting this song with the windows down! Ah,what memories!
Officer!
Good times, right!

Respect if only all cops were as cool 😎 👮♂️
