I'm 51 now and won't ever tire of listening to KRS if he doesn't tire of making music for us. Profound words, listen up you modern day mumble rappers and listen to an east coast OG legend doing it as it should be done.
This is my first album I heard from KRS One and he’s a beast and I plan to go back and listen to the rest of his catalog. I started rapping when I was 18 and I’m 22 now and I wish I heard KRS when I started but my skill has improved since I got into his art and I hope I meet him one day and I can get the chance to work with him. KRS if you see this, THANK YOU 🙏🏾✊🏾💯 I M A M C
Keep going young man and you'll will get even better krs been 🔥 out the gate my favorite to this day you probably always hear the debate who's the best I stand on it to this day he's the G.O.A.T 🐐!!!

Much love and much luck... To have KRS One as a Foundation ...for Musik.. and for your life in generell (?) will defently guide you in a positive way... im sure .. ive listened to him since the beginning..im Generation 73 .. and to me this is true hip hop made for the people... its a Lifestyle... im so thankfull for KRS One was one of my Teenhood Idols... Legends now.... and remained so.. im thankfull for artists with a serious real message ...and a phat beat to it.. simple but BAM 🙂❣ To me KRS One will always be the true King of HipHop ❣ All the Best for your future ❣
Man, Im 44, started DJing in 95' and Emceeing at 21 years old when I wrote a joke rhyme for 2 cats I DJed for and ended up being good at it. I was bumoin' KRS "Boom Bap" which was the biggest infuence on me w/ KRS "Sel Title Full Lenght LP!!!!!!!!!! Was 14/15...... This is his SICKEST ALBUM!!!!!!!!
Same here, March 1973, we both the same age as hip hop. From krs, biz, bdk, shan, stet, etc.. Too many people to name but are all classic Era no doubt 🔊🎶🔊🎶🔊
My condolences bro I hope this helps I’m 22 and my mom passed last year too and she was from the Bronx and I believe she introduced me to KRS One and he’s been one of my favorite rappers since I was put on to him.. keep your head up we gotta stay strong for the future G 💯✊🏾 Knowledge Reigns Supreme
Ok, I’m done meddling around the question . We all got guys like Kane , Rakim, Cube , Cool J , Nas , Shady, as best rappers alive right now…. But this guy been spitting raw hip hop from 87’ - 22’ . Not to mention back to back albums (2021-2022) . So in my own personal book, I have declared KRS-One as the best rapper alive . From his impact , to longevity, to technical skill, to the knowledge of the culture … to me that’s what makes you the best. Nd I believe , as the Teacha said , KRS is THE TOP ONE OF THE TOP 5 . Edit : Maurice Sowers made a good point in the comments . 87’ is the just the debut of his solo shit . Obviously he was leading BDP prior , laying it down as always . Much love to you all you hip hop heads .
From 86. Not 87 because I was a young boy back then I remember. When bdp came out with part time sucka! Instead of running from the bullies. I started using my fist to hurt them and hurt them. And hurt them.
Bow down all pretenders. Just bow down. I can't even come up with words to explain how good this is. Not in comparison. Just in general. Wow! I want a remix on Krazy with Busta Rhymes, Eminem, Q-Tip, Mos Def, Nas, MIssy, Queen Latifah, and MC Lyte.
This is the tree that many of us were grown from. !983 changed my life, after hearing KRS-ONE on a test press. No one to compare to him. He has only gotten better as the years have passed. I was 12 or 13 when I first heard him, and I am almost 52 now. He is still beyond relevant and so consistent. This is what I miss about the Golden Age of Hip-Hop, Artists did not sound alike, nor was there a jaded sound. Fresh was the aim of all artists. Biting was not tolerated. You couldn't be lazy or cookie cutter on what you created. Lyrics were not profane, ignorant or illiterate.
I was listening to Fat Joe interviewing KRS 1 , and KRS 1said that he thought that Nas's album Illmatic was better than his Criminal Minds album but he couldn't think of anybody else. Busta called out KRS 1 for a versus, but the thing about versus is the collection of your music, which is silly because not every song is good. If it was a battle KRS 1 would eat Busta in my opinion.
I'm 62 years old and remember back when KRS1 1st did a show at the Longshoremen Union hall. My cousin was on the door due to his size. He asked what you call your self, and he answered KRS1he said ," That sounds like a radio station. " Not realizing he was in the historical moments of history. That shall never die cause teachers never enlighten in the level Chris has dropped in just a few bars, let alone a whole album. Forever telling it as it is!
KRS-One your favorite rappers favorite rapper. Damn, this shit is deadly. This kills most everything dropping these days. Bars over beats, no clown hooks, no bling, no mumble, just pure knowledge.
@@rocketrichard2625 Cant argue that. At some point KRS will be rapping from a wheel chair at a retirement home and still be better than w/e comes after the YT rapper generation.
I'm going on 53 yrs old ,long time teacher , KRS one ,hip hop needs to know & not take for granted , were hip hop is and rhymes ,beats, dancing ,bizz marky to druggie to the Quan., minister Chris aka KRS OnE , bdp still lives today ,yo that slick Rick piece off the chain,,word is born , be safe y'all ..
I'm 55 and krs one has been my favourite HipHop artist since 86 . My views in life have changed, my political stance has changed and people I used to admire have become embarrassing but krs one still has maximum respect after all these years . Not many can say that . Excellent album it has all the ingredients of krs one over the years yet it's new and its 💥 on fire . Manchester England 🇬🇧🇬🇧
@@liventhelie119 My views in life and society has changed as I've got older. I'm not a supporter of BLM neither do I believe in institutional racism. Krs talks about black issues but he doesn't get involved in trends.

Not only is this medicine for Hiphoppers, it’s much needed healing for a world in so much pain. Thanks, Kris and Simone and all who contributed. One Love.
Man I've been counting down for this day since the release date of this album was announced. This is truly timeless hip-hop! THA G O.A.T STRIKES AGAIN!!!
KRS-ONE is undoubtedly the greatest MC of all time. Not lyricist, but MC. Year after year after year since the 80s til this day, he has remained and consistently giving the culture nothing but pure hiphop music. Peace and love to the GOD
What are you talking about??? Greatest Master of Ceremony of all time what kind of shit is that? Mc according to Rakim means "move the crowd " Krs don't and didn't make dance tracks He Taught I e "come to the teacher" he recorded in the late 80's so name a DOPER lyrist in any era of Rap !
Ngl I usually don't expect the OGs to go as hard as they used to just bc they are getting up there in age now and have moved on to other things in life.. But Kris is still absolutely at the top of his game 🔥 def one of the GOATs without a question
Been a KRS fan since my friend passed me a Criminal Minded cassette tape to listen to on the bus ride home back in 87. I can't thank KRS ONE enough for all the things he taught me and led me to research on my own. Fresh for 22 and forever. you suckas!
Just imagine if we take hip hop back! All that garbage is destroying our culture. We have too much money not to take our royalties back. Buy back hip hop, get our own label, rhyme only knowledge and truth of our people that have to do with our uplifting, and don’t distribute self destruction. Thanks KRS One!
Absolute FACTS, hip hop is martial arts to me, there’s many masters of the lyrical kung fu style but KRS-one style is on another level lyrical kung fu (grandmaster)
I'm one of KRS ONE 's biggest fans.I'm so proud of him for still going strong after all these years in the game.A lot of artists come and go but to still be relevant after over 30 years in the game is very impressive.When I grew up I listened to KRS ONE all the time,my mom even liked his music and she wasn't a big Hip Hop fan.The weird thing is 2/22 is mom's birthday (she's passed away) and this album dropped on her birthday.
My best MC ever dropping another gem. Its been a good season in Hip Hop. Nas Magic, Snoop BODR, AZ Doe or Die 2, Big KRIT, Currensy and the Alchemist. One love for real crowd moving hip hop from Zimbabwe Africa.

KRS-1 is my favorite MC of all time. His lyrical flow and word play is top notch. We share the same born day August 20th. He is 3 yrs older than me. He reaches and teaches people of the masses. I feel privileged to be born on the same day as one of the greatest talents in music!! Word up!!!!! FACTS!!!
I'm 52 in still loving blast MASTER, I'm smiling all over myself much love for you KRS ONE,this is hip hop ,I don't know what this mess is today ,keep up God work in doing it raw ,kris
I love how Krs One makes sure the culture will live forever. 100 years from now, when all this is history, young Hip Hoppers will research where Hip Hop came from and Krs One will be here teaching them.
Too short and e 40 and method man and redman and nas among few other from the 80s and 90s all been dropping new albums and tracks. Their as tired with this new age mumble/trap music as we are
This album is a Masterpiece! Strategically put together with knowledge, power, skill, and expertise! Mad love and respect to KRS-One and his craft... A True O.G. and Teacher!!!
I’m 34, way too young to have known Krs back in the days, but anyway I think he’ll stay in top 3 of all time best MCs with Rakim and Kane. I had the opportunity to meet him twice and once had a conversation with him about hiphop, he’s the definition of hip hop enlightenment, so proud to have him. This album is dope as F... he still kicks better than all these youngsters. Long live Hip Hop ✊🏽!
I agree with everyone, being over 50 and knowing our generation gave flava to the masses. We made people pay attention to the culture of HIP-HOP not just rap music. KRS is still dopeness personified after all of these years. The type of MC you just call "Money" because he is the ultimate. KRS-ONE, KANE, RAKIM are the greatest MC's ever (my opinion).
GRAMMY ..... GIVE THIS LEGEND HIS LEGENDARY DUE.....OHHHHH ..... SORRY.....HE BROUGHT THIS IN 2022...... NOT JUST IN THE PAST ....BUT BRINGING IT NOWWWWWWW....BEST ALBUM IN 2022......TELL ME A BETTER ALBUM........YOUUUUUUU ........CANNNNNNTTTTTTTT
This album is straight heat. I’m a 17 year old kid, so I listen to lots of nowaday rap but I also absolutely love old rap, but this is an absolute classic. Raw Hip Hop has gotta be my fav song in this album. Plus it came out on 2/22/22 (Twosday), which will only happen one time ever, so the perfect day for this to be released. KRS-One is a fucking monster. Edit: He also never ever ages.
Respect i'm glad you know what real hip hop is...most of your generation are listening to ballshit grime and trap you will learn so much by listening to proper hip hop arists like KRS, pure geniuses, not stupid manufactured fools with face tattoos!
@@jonheyel2051 nuffin wrong with Grime..... If your talking Drill then I agree.. Grime is kinda the same concept as hip hop... Lyrical ability, Unique Styles and flows
I heard this and immediately started writing barz it's been a while since I wrote and this did it see I miss about my hip-hop it made me wanna break dance again this generation need to learn the elements our dance, graffiti our art, freestyling our spoken word etc....thanks kris's 1.
*I've been listening to KRS since **_"Criminal Minded",_** and I've been thinking how the production value of his latest albums has been slightly slacking, but I can say in all confidence how this album **_represents KRS in his finest form lyrically and sonically._** All hail to the **_BLAST MASTER! FRESH FOR 2022,YOU SUCKAZZZZZ!_*
1988! The year I heard Criminal Minded, It Takes A Nation of Millions (PE) and Follow The Leader (Eric B & Rakim). Before that, I honestly wasn't into hip hop. I was an angry kid in high school, wasn't into party music (Fat Boys) and I was pissed at the racist society America was. For the first time, I was hearing rap music that wasn't telling me to dance or shake my ass, but discussing the issues I was seeing in front me everyday.
@@juniorjames7076 don't forget the Message(1981)... It's like That(1983).... But yeah P.E. and BDP made an entire album telling us chit in this country was, still and forever wack and full of suckas!!!!
Much love from South Africa........... even the music that was released in the 90s it will forever remain refreshing till the end of time..........salute I bow down with so much respect for the elder..............This is one of the artist that you do not get bored on listening..............
On my third listen. The album breathes... hills n valleys between infusing inhalations of speed and more chill exhalations of stretching n prepping for the next sprint. The title track is one of my fave bangers, as it should be. The last track is the typical contemplative prayer Kris ends every album with. Beautiful. All in all, another fine contribution from The Blastmaster and fam. In "Drop Another Break" now.. helllzyesss.. percolating like my coffee on acid..
Hip Hop was never about record sales or gimmicks this right is emceeing, the art, the culture 1 of the 4 elements of pure hip hop...some of y'all just might not understand
Been listening to KRS since the 80's he has always been a beast, philosopher and teacher he is Hip Hop. Yo KRS u flipped on this one. Real Hip Hop is alive and well 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
GET IT!! then send it to me after your done (back in the, "can I borrow your cassette tape days"). I will make sure your copy of this cassette comes back in tact haha.
I've played "Club Rippa" 10 times in a row. The beat and the Jamaican accent works perfectly. This song can easily be played in a nightclub. I love it ! Krs-One is creative for pulling this off. 👌
I just love how this dude can continue to put out quality music over decades! I am so impressed with his longevity that it hurts my heart that more people are not aware of his music! There will never be another so all hail the king been here since the late 80s and will always support the Teacher!!!!!!
Salute KRS1 The Teacha 💕 I’m 47 been loving KRS1… BDP..Rest In Paradise Goddess Ms.Melody… my youngest daughter absolutely loves KRS1…she was happy to know he had new music out🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
Aww I hope she grows up taught right and with respect sorry for interventions I just love the fans who need a good teacher not misdemeanor a pure evil grim reaper with the beat and never deceiver. He da new goat dat niqqa psycho mode with da beat 😂😂
Listening to krs, you can hear what he's given to the game. The things people took from him. I can hear the biggie, the PAC, the Busta, the jay z and so many more. Krs is the root. Salute.

Just been listening to this album on repeat for 3 days straight now. Can't believe I never heard of KRS before, this is incredible
Did this really just actually get dropped here? Yes!
KRS-One
Today we all won. Thank you
Right? Didn't even know I needed this Just incredible he's still giving us such excellent music. So happy I stumbled on it!
Been a KRS fan since my friend passed me a Criminal Minded cassette tape to listen to on the bus ride home back in 87. I can't thank KRS ONE enough for all the things he taught me and led me to research on my own. Fresh for 22 and forever. you suckas!
Yeah Man this is super fresh for 22 you suckas Scott la Rock is in here boy!!!!!! We need to do a movie on this Man frfr!!!!!!!!!!!!
Just imagine if we take hip hop back! All that garbage is destroying our culture. We have too much money not to take our royalties back. Buy back hip hop, get our own label, rhyme only knowledge and truth of our people that have to do with our uplifting, and don’t distribute self destruction. Thanks KRS One!
I just said to one of my young cousins a few weeks ago, and I repeat, "If KRS is not on your Mount Rushmore of hip-hop, then you don't know hip-hop."

I have have been
True that!
Absolute FACTS, hip hop is martial arts to me, there’s many masters of the lyrical kung fu style but KRS-one style is on another level lyrical kung fu (grandmaster)
I'm one of KRS ONE 's biggest fans.I'm so proud of him for still going strong after all these years in the game.A lot of artists come and go but to still be relevant after over 30 years in the game is very impressive.When I grew up I listened to KRS ONE all the time,my mom even liked his music and she wasn't a big Hip Hop fan.The weird thing is 2/22 is mom's birthday (she's passed away) and this album dropped on her birthday.
My Mom liked his music as well when I played it on a road trip. Her response was, " Why cant more rappers sound like him? "
Sorry for your lost fam 😭

Makes me happy to see over 300k views. I been down since 86. Kris has the best live shows of anyone.
One of the GOATs !!! If you ain’t hip on KRS you don’t know shit about hip hop and lyrical geniuses !
Every single time that I listen to KRS One, it sounds exactly like what Hip Hop should sound like. Thank you for blessing us. 🔥🎤🔥🎤
Couldn't say it better! 👍
I'm 49 years old and I still listen to the real GOAT #krsone

KRS-1 is my favorite MC of all time. His lyrical flow and word play is top notch. We share the same born day August 20th. He is 3 yrs older than me. He reaches and teaches people of the masses. I feel privileged to be born on the same day as one of the greatest talents in music!! Word up!!!!! FACTS!!!
Class. 💖
Thank you !
Thank you bro
ty
20 years old and into these bars!
He makes me miss true artists. He don’t need 20 people to do one song. He is the song of his street. That’s what’s up ✊🏾.
I'm 52 in still loving blast MASTER, I'm smiling all over myself much love for you KRS ONE,this is hip hop ,I don't know what this mess is today ,keep up God work in doing it raw ,kris
From day one, I never heard a wack album from this dude!👍🏾👍🏾🔥🔥🔥
This is the HIP HOP i want, the hip hop that nobody understand, this is a unique LEVEL!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 THANK YOU KING!!🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽✊🏽✊🏽✊🏽✊🏽✊🏽
I'm about to be 55 from the West coast. I'm a Tupac fan. KRS is the greatest!
I love how Krs One makes sure the culture will live forever. 100 years from now, when all this is history, young Hip Hoppers will research where Hip Hop came from and Krs One will be here teaching them.
META-historical
facts!!!
KRS-ONE DOES IT AGAIN!!! REAL HIP HOP, B-BOY/B-GIRL SHIT!! THE ELEMENTS OF HIP HOP CULTURE ARE ALWAYS EXPRESSED ON ANY KRS ALBUM!
They made these beats sound old school 👍🏽
Ladies and gentlemen, this is what real hip-hop sounds like.
Over.30.sum yrs!!!✋🏾👊🏿🔥🔥🎶🎶🎤🎧
Too short and e 40 and method man and redman and nas among few other from the 80s and 90s all been dropping new albums and tracks. Their as tired with this new age mumble/trap music as we are
Yesssss
U said it
He needs to do a video to that club song clubs get ripped by Kris is a damn HIT!!!!!!
This album is a Masterpiece! Strategically put together with knowledge, power, skill, and expertise! Mad love and respect to KRS-One and his craft... A True O.G. and Teacher!!!
I'm really liking the electronic vibe in this album. krsone's voice over the dark electro beats is dope !
If I was asked to leave one album behind for future generations it would be BDP's Edutainement. KRS has moved from top 5 to legendary status.
Edutainment was dope. (As they used to say.). I would leave behind Public Enemy "It takes a nation of millions to hold us Back".
@@nnamdiwilliams1498 Good choice. I might want to harm some folks though :-)
I’m 34, way too young to have known Krs back in the days, but anyway I think he’ll stay in top 3 of all time best MCs with Rakim and Kane.
I had the opportunity to meet him twice and once had a conversation with him about hiphop, he’s the definition of hip hop enlightenment, so proud to have him.
This album is dope as F... he still kicks better than all these youngsters.
Long live Hip Hop ✊🏽!
Classic! But that's no surprise. It's KRS1 afterall!!! The Man, The Myth, and the Legend. 😶
He's been doing it for a long time. You learn from experience and your inate ability to see what's good/a pattern.
I about lost it when I heard Slick Rick's voice. I have so much love for both KRS-One and Slick Rick!

I agree with everyone, being over 50 and knowing our generation gave flava to the masses. We made people pay attention to the culture of HIP-HOP not just rap music. KRS is still dopeness personified after all of these years. The type of MC you just call "Money" because he is the ultimate. KRS-ONE, KANE, RAKIM are the greatest MC's ever (my opinion).
Nas too... c'mon now
Big L also rip
GRAMMY ..... GIVE THIS LEGEND HIS LEGENDARY DUE.....OHHHHH ..... SORRY.....HE BROUGHT THIS IN 2022...... NOT JUST IN THE PAST ....BUT BRINGING IT NOWWWWWWW....BEST ALBUM IN 2022......TELL ME A BETTER ALBUM........YOUUUUUUU ........CANNNNNNTTTTTTTT
So legendary. He's aged so well as a rapper. Definitely can't say the same about most of his peers.
Legendary!!! Top 5 MC's of ALL TIME. WE NEEDED THIS!

KRS-One is timeless. I can listen to anything he puts out.
listen to my music 😁
The Teacher is speaking, Class in Session...
❤🖤💚🔥✊🏿
This album is straight heat. I’m a 17 year old kid, so I listen to lots of nowaday rap but I also absolutely love old rap, but this is an absolute classic. Raw Hip Hop has gotta be my fav song in this album. Plus it came out on 2/22/22 (Twosday), which will only happen one time ever, so the perfect day for this to be released. KRS-One is a fucking monster.
Edit: He also never ever ages.
That made my day young man to hear you actually appreciate real raw hip hop. Big up to you and spread the real culture the best you can.
Respect i'm glad you know what real hip hop is...most of your generation are listening to ballshit grime and trap you will learn so much by listening to proper hip hop arists like KRS, pure geniuses, not stupid manufactured fools with face tattoos!
He is the best of all time. His whole catalog is crazy. Listen to.. Reality from 1995
Trudat! Street Light is also dope!
@@jonheyel2051 nuffin wrong with Grime..... If your talking Drill then I agree.. Grime is kinda the same concept as hip hop... Lyrical ability, Unique Styles and flows
Krs-one was to advance back in the day and he still is. Everything this kid do is legendary.

KRS ONE is HIP HOP, HIP HOP IS KRS ONE. He's married to the game🔥🔥🔥🔥👑👑‼️
This is one of the best KRS-ONE projects to date. Pure unbiased Hip-Hop.
No hoes or cars! Just boom bap!
One of the best ever too
@Sherrieff Hammond this needs to be pinned eerrywhere!
I heard this and immediately started writing barz it's been a while since I wrote and this did it see I miss about my hip-hop it made me wanna break dance again this generation need to learn the elements our dance, graffiti our art, freestyling our spoken word etc....thanks kris's 1.
This is the only kind of rap that my young son will even listen to. He knows what real Hip Hop is.
*I've been listening to KRS since **_"Criminal Minded",_** and I've been thinking how the production value of his latest albums has been slightly slacking, but I can say in all confidence how this album **_represents KRS in his finest form lyrically and sonically._** All hail to the **_BLAST MASTER! FRESH FOR 2022,YOU SUCKAZZZZZ!_*
Agreed.. the production here is tight. Good medicine :)
Tight af. And that's just TH-cam quality. Looking forward to bumping this in FLAC.
1988! The year I heard Criminal Minded, It Takes A Nation of Millions (PE) and Follow The Leader (Eric B & Rakim). Before that, I honestly wasn't into hip hop. I was an angry kid in high school, wasn't into party music (Fat Boys) and I was pissed at the racist society America was. For the first time, I was hearing rap music that wasn't telling me to dance or shake my ass, but discussing the issues I was seeing in front me everyday.
@@juniorjames7076 don't forget the Message(1981)... It's like That(1983).... But yeah P.E. and BDP made an entire album telling us chit in this country was, still and forever wack and full of suckas!!!!
Much love from South Africa........... even the music that was released in the 90s it will forever remain refreshing till the end of time..........salute I bow down with so much respect for the elder..............This is one of the artist that you do not get bored on listening..............
On my third listen. The album breathes... hills n valleys between infusing inhalations of speed and more chill exhalations of stretching n prepping for the next sprint. The title track is one of my fave bangers, as it should be. The last track is the typical contemplative prayer Kris ends every album with. Beautiful. All in all, another fine contribution from The Blastmaster and fam. In "Drop Another Break" now.. helllzyesss.. percolating like my coffee on acid..
I know he just dropped this to us for free. People lets also support it on all streaming platforms. 🔥🔥🔥
Tears came out of my eyes when I played for first time in my radio
🙏👍
The greatest hip hop artist of all time. No other has come close in terms of ability, knowledge, and sheer truth. Long live KRS1.
This is. .Fire...Hip Hop is still here. This is our Art Form.
Great when OGs bring me back. Instead of trying to bring back then forward. Take your time.
Ppl don’t understand how lyrically superior he is in every decade from the late 80’s to now, no one can get with him… mic dropped

Hip Hop was never about record sales or gimmicks this right is emceeing, the art, the culture 1 of the 4 elements of pure hip hop...some of y'all just might not understand
*Turning **#52yrsup** and still going. This album is a classic. Straight fire from beginning to end.*
When the last time you played a album without skipping a song? Everytime you hear one you want more and he brings it
Been listening to KRS since the 80's he has always been a beast, philosopher and teacher he is Hip Hop. Yo KRS u flipped on this one. Real Hip Hop is alive and well 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
i never appriciated that fact that legends still alive tru these ruff decades AND STILL GO KRAZY!!!! love from swizzland♥️🇨🇭
I deserve this album! I need it.
You and me both🙌🏿
We
Yesss. The Goat is back!
GET IT!! then send it to me after your done (back in the, "can I borrow your cassette tape days"). I will make sure your copy of this cassette comes back in tact haha.
*We should all be **_glad to get the blessing of this free gift._** You **_deserving_** this gift is a matter of opinion.*
“Knowledge reigns supreme over nearly everybody”. Salute to KRS . He slayed it! The album was fresh.
Top 3 lyricist of all time.
Seriouly this ALBUM is just ridiculous. I WANT to rap again because of it! #TempleofHIPHOP
Discusting . Too bad only hip hop never die, this man here our champion,,, Hip hop jefe
I've played "Club Rippa" 10 times in a row. The beat and the Jamaican accent works perfectly. This song can easily be played in a nightclub. I love it ! Krs-One is creative for pulling this off. 👌
"I Rock All of de clubs demmuh;
Clubs get ripped by Kris"👍
Easily played in every club in America. The Djs need to bump this club rippa it's awesome
This man has been dropping dope songs across generations
this album needs a double like button. best thing i've heard for a good few years
Heat! I'm not surprised just tickled. KRS-One will be here forever!!!! Love Mad Respect Thank You Kris for more than than I could ever share.
Word! 💯
The real G.O.A.T
An honor to be involved with this project and produce for “Think Bigger”. Thanks y’all!!!
Only his enemies tell him this is dope ... his real fans think "How can he rap on those wack beats?"
Classic.
@@ACThePD hater, the beat is amazing.
@@Ralphunreal - Earbola ... #googleithomie
I just love how this dude can continue to put out quality music over decades! I am so impressed with his longevity that it hurts my heart that more people are not aware of his music! There will never be another so all hail the king been here since the late 80s and will always support the Teacher!!!!!!
The corporate music industry suppresses music that doesn’t promote ignorance. Krs 1 is not meant for the masses
listen to my music 😁
Yes longevity, dude right here he be helping me, my lyrics can't reach a level he done reached, relax take notes from da man dat teach😂😂😂
Salute KRS1 The Teacha 💕 I’m 47 been loving KRS1… BDP..Rest In Paradise Goddess Ms.Melody… my youngest daughter absolutely loves KRS1…she was happy to know he had new music out🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
Aww I hope she grows up taught right and with respect sorry for interventions I just love the fans who need a good teacher not misdemeanor a pure evil grim reaper with the beat and never deceiver. He da new goat dat niqqa psycho mode with da beat 😂😂
Listening to krs, you can hear what he's given to the game. The things people took from him. I can hear the biggie, the PAC, the Busta, the jay z and so many more. Krs is the root. Salute.
Word Up
Defenetly hear Eminem in there.
