Just watched an LL COOL J documentary.
After he wrote the song "I need love" he was heavily scrutinized and criticised in the industry from 87-90 with that track.
He went to his grandmother for guidance and council.
She told him
"Todd, go to the basement and write a song, and knock 'em out"
This was the response he took from those words from her about his treatment in the industry at the time.
💗
👑
Shouda been grandmama said knock u out then 😂. Crazy where inspiration comes from tho.
@@3_1_3rd_gaming but his grandma raised him...he was like "mama" and that would have been a mouthful to "grandma said knock you out" NAH! LOL
I didn't mean that literally lol.
"Don't call it a comeback"....... so simple yet so brilliant introduction..
Whose in the ring?
Guess what i saw "Saved by the Bell" Episode part 2 of the "Wicked Stepbrother" Jessie Spano Punched Eric Tramer Out!!!! just like LL Cool J. Video.👊🏼

Who’s here because they actually just wanted to listen to this song
Me too let's leave these cod chumps and listen to other ll music
Not me

Yes

The energy of this track was always ridiculous!!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥
Have seen ‚The Hard Way‘ and in the 90ies it was so difficult to get some sort of tracks in Europe.
I don‘t appreciate the so called ‚social media‘ that much but through YT I gained the soundtrack of my youth back. And it is as cool as it was in the 90ies … 😎
@@hansmuller3651 I lived near Paris, still, sounds from abroad were pretty overpriced if not coming from the Virgin megastore. Shoplifting from those was a rite of passage.
Plenty of good writers singers that I'm glad don't fit radioshit. but also too much marketing skills are wasted on people who have nothing but to be polite as guidelines. Call me old school but I hear with my ears. SYA made a point not to show her face and bring a teenager on Tour to represent her. that's how shallow we think people have become.
Goosebumps were all over when this song blended with bumblebee 's entry
FRR thats why im here
Ikr
thats why im also here
The movie theater went crazy
W scene fr fr 🗿💯💯
One of the most iconic first lines of any hip-hop song ever. _Don't call it a comeback!_
*_straight outta compton would like to know your location_*
see cartoon Kangeroo Jack funny love the way that it all works so cool
@@sheddingmyvelvet I have to agree with you here
I’ve been here for years still rocking my pants
@@sheddingmyvelvet"one OF the most iconic" not THE most iconic.
" Don't call it a comeback." 😡 Such a simple yet brilliant and effective way to start the song as of today it still gives me chills and goosebumps.😰😱 0:10
Yes!!!!❤
Me too
Did you know Whitney used the line on her return to prominence r Kelly penned song Salute, one of his last releases?
Thats how you know his soul went into this one.
“it was all a dream” was better by biggie imo
Not one swear word. Just pure, clean savagery. This song will always be a masterpiece.
Just fucking motivating
same it gets me pumped when im about to workout
Brook Rivers lol
yup
Yeah really motivating. 👌 My goodness modern people are ridiculous.
VOTE TRUMP!!
This is my “kicking cancer to the curb” song. I listened to it at every single chemo session.
Knock that shit out, you got this 💪💪 prayers from some random person
You got this!!
You got this
You got this shit, you’ll knock this shit out dog. Prayers from another random person
Stay strong king, rekt that shithead
Cant deny he went hard. Then. Now. Forever. Yall remember why he made this record? The rest of the rappers thought he was soft cause he was rappin to the ladies. Nice knockout
yeah they thought he fell off and went pop
After the knockout, he had the respect.
wrote this for my new guru , Mike Tyson...but ya he was about the lover jams
Yeah..loading photos to Twitter tomorrow. Investigation continues. The never-ending story.
Yeah they thought LL was all washed up cause of his love songs. Then he hit em with this and they never said another word about LL again.
Who’s still bumping this shit in 2024 💪🏿
Me
James Todd Smith with another all time classic.
Just got it as an "earworm" out of nowhere while driving. Had to instantly look it up, masterpiece!
Me when I post this post, drunk and high.
right here!
I like how this song and video are iconically tough and aggressive, and yet...not an obscene word or phrase to be found.
i mean he does talk about killing and slaying people, oh yeah and bombing a town, so maybe some phrases, but no cursewords at all
@@jorisboerboom4187 I love this song.
This song came out and basically was the song that most white people got into rap with. But what we didn't know was underground there were things going on like NWA that a few years later would change the scene...it was cool to have your album have a warning label for lyrical profanity.
Any punk can spew a bunch of f bombs , but it takes skill and talent to school someone
early days before cointellpro kicked in
the foul language thing was not organic to the culture, its lucerfarian, zionist
My mom: just ignore them
LL’s mom: knock him out
Fun fact - That's LL's real life grandmother at the end of the video.
The more you know

@@EmeraldNinjaMC mEH
av rmx Nah, he may not be like old school rappers but he’s still dope
@av rmx yeah this comment thread was about energy and aggressiveness, that was my fucking point. denzel is more aggressive and more energetic and it's not even close. not saying denzel's shit is more classic but still clearly more aggressive
Who else wants this as their entrance song for almost everything in their lives? Show of hands. 👋
Yeah This That shit
I could think of another one. I have my reasons
@@downstairspictures9024 which one?
Wish hip hop was Still like this
If only
Cuz he a dumb bitch and need to get with the program, yes the fucking 90s were great, legends came out of that era but it's a new day, fuuuck man
its a new day with crap rap with people that cant even rap
The silence after he realized he acted an idiot for putting words in someone else's response, lol. And for the record, being complacent with rap from 2016? hahaha it's a joke now the majority that's being put out. artists should be ashamed. but I guess since they get paid to put out garbage, they'll keep putting out garbage.

Welcome back the 90s!! Rise of the beats!!!
The 90s did have some pretty sick beats.
GO GET 'EM, BEE!
I came to kick ass .
ahh man our elementary school days - that's my hiphop! LL was on come-up at the time, was also when Snoop started getting on. First time, i heard nasty lyrics from- Two Live Crew! we played our jams in hallways on these things called boomboxes and ghetto blasters! even did it on the tape players in the libraries (ouch i suddenly hear crickets!🙄 ) haha It was all good. #RockTheBells #SaluteTheSamples
@@jacobcoleman8250it was an amazing time to be a teen. This was on all the dance floors.
If I was in the UFC, this would be my entrance song!

Terry Schilling mine would be sabotage by beastie boys
When you get knocked the fuck out im gonna sing Mama said knock you out! thats why no one uses it
If Mum gives you permission then there is no holding back.
At a guess, I didn't follow but be free with care, condoms, especially those which may cause trouble if you didn't get used to. they're also the only real way to show you care nowadays. Males not on board aren't recommended.
I'm full-on pre done with it all Womanly subjects, say most..but either way not ready to get AIDS by being stupid or underrating my life.
@0:01 LL was actually talking to the engineer. That part was real and not supposed to be recorded lol.

This song proves LL cool j was the 1990's uncrowned King of the rap world, not just 2Pac and Big.
Facts. All-Around, LL was the GOAT until Busta Rhymez took that title all through the 2000s all the way up to "Look At Me Know." And that's a feature. Busta Rhymez's greatest songs were features, and he still has solo-hits on par with LL. I mean Janet could have done a song with LL...But she chose Busta. Think about it lol.
@@eddiesmith5617 I respect your opinion but you have forgotten that Busta was fired from leaders of the new school and he never won awards for music or popularity LL cool j had so Busta was a pretender to the thrown.
@@demetriswilson250 He got kicked out to their detriment. Leaders of the new shcool never recovered and Busta kept getting bigger and better to the point they were mostly forgotten. Even Busta says himself it wasa blessing in disguise. By no means was he a pretender to anything, "throne" or otherwise.
@@hugejackedman3447 I respect your opinion and I understand that you're a Busta rymes fan, but you have to admit that he never became a celebrity rapper like LL cool j.
@@demetriswilson250 How do you understand something I never claimed to be? lol
When you say "celebrity rapper' what do you mean? A rapper that is celebrated or a rapper that also did film? Because Busta is both of those too! lol
Back when the rhymes was done with actual words

What's the reference?
"Shinbone wants statehood"
LL Cool J kept it real and knocked it out of the park. You can feel the intensity and conviction in his voice. He is a real OG. One of the greats.
But no conviction for Shinbone!!
BECAUSE..."WE want this PLAN to work." -THE PLAN
intensity when he says "don't you never, ever pull my lever..." is insane!
His flow is unbelievable ❤
The 80s and 90s were the golden age of hip hop and rap. It was fun, catchy and everyone enjoyed it.
So much better than now 😊
@@dystopian2153yeah
I'm 47 and I grew up with all these cassette tapes. Lol
@@rickjustus6416 55 here, same, along with LPs and 12".
Funny you say that bc in the 90s oldheads were saying only the 80s was the golden era and the 90s ruined hiphop
The truth is that good music is always being made, you just have to not expect your sound to be spoonfed to you.
lyrics:
Don't call it a comeback, I been here for years
I'm rockin' my peers, puttin' suckers in fear
Makin' the tears rain down like a monsoon
Listen to the bass go boom
Explosions, overpowerin'
Over the competition, I'm towerin'
Wrecking shop, when I drop
These lyrics that'll make you call the cops
Don't you dare stare
You better move, don't ever compare
Me to the rest that'll all get sliced and diced
Competition's payin' the price
I'm gonna knock you out (Huuh)
Mama said knock you out (Huuh)
I'm gonna knock you out (Huuh)
Mama said knock you out (Huuh)
I'm gonna knock you out (Huuh)
Mama said knock you out (Huuh)
I'm gonna knock you out (Huuh)
Mama said knock you out (Huuh)
Don't you call this a regular jam
I'm gonna rock this land
I'm gonna take this itty-bitty world by storm
And I'm just getting warm
Just like Muhammad Ali, they called him Cassius
Watch me bash this beat like a skull
Don'tcha know I had beef wit'
Why do you riff with me, a maniac psycho
And when I pull out my jammy, get ready 'cause it might go
Blauh! How ya like me now?
The ripper will not allow
You to get wit' Mr. Smith don't riff
Listen to my gear shift
I'm blastin', outlastin'
Kinda like shaft, so you could say I'm shaftin'
Olde English filled my mind
And I came up with a funky rhyme
I'm gonna knock you out (Huuh)
Mama said knock you out (Huuh)
I'm gonna knock you out (Huuh)
Mama said knock you out (Huuh)
I'm gonna knock you out (Huuh)

Damn, ooh

Destruction, terror and mayhem
Pass me a sissy, so suckas I'll slay him
Farmers (What), farmers (What?)

I think I'm gonna bomb a town (Get down)
Don't you never, ever, pull my lever
'Cause I explode
And my nine is easy to load
I gotta thank God
'Cause he gave me the strength to rock, hard

I was in high school when this came out. I graduated in 91. This was all over the place.
It was start and almost immediate end of the "nice" rapping, like Kris Kross as well as the end of the R&B/New Jack craze with folks like Bel Biv Davoe, Bobby Brown...etc. It was all so wholesome. Then Dre came along and gangster rap took over. Which was/is great, just different.

Reminds me of the Michael Jackson 'Beat It' song. There's a part you can hear knocking on the song because someone was actually knocking on the studio window glass, and Quincey Jones decided to keep it in. Also in the Jackson 5 song 'I'll Be There" he messed up the line about looking over the shoulder but they decided to leave it, flaws and all.

Love it when he says that
"Mama Said Knock You Out" is a hit single by LL Cool J from his album of the same name. The song famously begins with the line "Don't call it a comeback/I've been here for years." Before "Mama Said Knock You Out" was released, many people felt that LL Cool J's career was waning; his grandmother, who still believed in his talent, told him to "knock out" all his critics.[1] The song was produced by Marley Marl[2] with help from DJ Bobcat along with LL. The single reached number 17[3] on the Billboard Hot 100, was certified Gold by the RIAA, and won the Grammy Award for Best Rap Solo Performance. The song takes various shots at Kool Moe Dee.
The song was featured in the films The Hard Way (which LL Cool J also appeared), Gladiator, Encino Man, Bébé's Kids, Kangaroo Jack: G'Day U.S.A.!, Big Mommas: Like Father, Like Son, Happy Feet Two, Fist Fight, and The House.
Respect to your in depth knowledge!

LL COOL J energy on this track is insane! With a little guidance from the video on my channel about how artists are blowing up, he is now getting the attention he deserves.
I'm here for the song
So happy he is finally in the hall of fame! True legend ❤️
Me too 😁
He should got inducted 20 years ago
Me too 😁
What I learned from this:
Don’t call it a comeback
He’s gonna knock you out
He’s gonna take this world by storm
And he's just gettin' warm
@@stee5157 trueee
Didnt know Roblox kids listened to classics.
@@nn4happyspookymontheveryon91 yeah I play it. I kinda hate most of the community though
@@leofrfr_vdy Yeah i dont play roblox so much. I just play with my friend from school,only when he plays it.
One of the most iconic hip hop songs of all time. I love this
Canibus came harder....LL is cool tho but Canibus came hard almost took LL over
@@Wrestlelesson ikr
I used to listen to this when I was 63, and now I'm 17. This will forever be a classic.
Still jamming to this in 2023. " I gotta thank God, because he gave me the strength to rock hard." most underrated lyric ever.
Amen I couldn't agree more
2024 just need this song for wake up.
LL is definitely Top 5 of all time. Groundbreaking
💓
WE DYING THEN REVIVING AND JUMPING OUT THE BACK OF A PLANE WITH THIS ONE 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
"Shinbone wants statehood"
Many bboys & bgirls around the world rocking the floor on this song, the beat is one of the best ever 🔥
Facts
An absolute hip-hop classic and still one of the hardest tracks around! LL Cool J literally knocked this one out!
This hits hard❤
Among the most powerful final verses I've ever heard. Violent, hilarious, and delivered with a menacing, constantly changing rhythm.
0:09 will go down as one of the most iconic opening lines of all time (for a song)
King Crozma to
It already has
La di da di we like to party we don’t cause trouble we don’t hurt nobody
Takes me back to when I was in my first yr of college in 1992 & this was blasting in the billiards room.
Just when people had counted LL out-he came back with the biggest hit of his career 🐐
Douglass Barnes was a diss to Africa bimbata
James Dones it was a diss to kool moe dee
This song is so good, I'm not even a fan of rap (especially these days) just a fan of good music.
“I'm blastin', outlastin'
Kinda like shaft, so you could say I'm shaftin'
Olde English filled my mind
And I came up with a funky rhyme” simple yet so brilliant for lyrics
Yeah the mind...
Because "Shinbone wants statehood"
LL COOL J's voice is amazing to scratch with. 🇬🇧✊🏻
The marriage of his powerful delivery, poetic storytelling and the music under him is masterful.
The percussives in his voice hit accurate like an atomic clock, that's some amazing vocal work. And I really appreciate the delay/reverb on it, it's like you can hear the brick walls and concrete.
It’s A Classic Rap Song 🥊 in my opinion.
take a listen on his response to canibus diss 20y ago. he killed him in 5:30 minutes of crazy rap skills
3:22 Now that's a lotta damage
When I grit and kill at 'will'...when I jammy in my hand!
"Shinbone wants statehood"
When this song came out along with the album shook up the game and the culture!!!!! The great Mr Smith 💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿
The Vevo date description is incorrect saying 1995. The album "Mama Said Knock You Out" was released in September of 1990, and this song of the same name was the fourth single off the album. This music video came out in early 1991.
Finally someone who thought the same thing as me
Randy H. Yes indeed! 😉
I was gonna say... I'm sure this was pre 95! Was gonna guess 91. Well played sir
Thank you! Here I thought I was mistaken and not the internet
It’s when vevo uploaded it 🤦🏽♂️
Can anyone explain why LL isn’t making music like this today? This song was insane
because this is a product of its time. This won't sell today, sadly.
because he is rich now
@@elreyabeja4539 Naw bro its worse than that. THIS? This would sell today, because its pure demonstration of talent... and its the talent that's missing, because nobody wants to practice, and nobody understands how music is passed down. We lost it to social media imo, around 2015-16.
Also the Gaye family made it so many major musicians have to be extra careful with their lawsuit against Robin Thick and Pharrell. They dont want to make music anymore.
@@timmyp6297 Agreed, and because Parents won't make them go upstairs and "Take out the Garbage"!
He’s actually in that show NCIS if you want to see him somewhere !
*"DON'T CALL IT A COMEBACK!"* ❤
NOW THIS IS HIP HOP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
0:10 When LL Cool J said " Don't call it a comeback" 😏 I felt that in my heart. 😍😎💯👍
I did to !!! Couldn't say it any better man , it struck like lightning when it hit ...
You felt the electrochemicals activate the dopamine neurotransmitter in your brain
Just like Muhammad Ali, they called him Cassius!! R.I.P to the greatest.
word
RIP
More like the greatest big mouth
Right when he said that I read this comment.
Yeah, but he could back it up. Dude wasn't all talk.
Was watching Olympics in Breakdance and they used this song
WE DEPLOYIN INTO THE BATTLE FIELD AS BUMBLEBEE WITH THIS ONE 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
"Shinbone wants statehood"
CLASSIC!!! Shit still goes hard in 2017!!!
Hard core hip hop classic
2018
3030???? 👽👾💀🚀
This Song Revived LL's Career(with Jack the Ripper), This Put him back on top in his feud with Kool Moe Dee, and He got this idea from His Grandmother who believed he still had it. This Proves That Cool J is one the greatest lyrical tycoons in the history of rap/hip-hop and that he deserves more love as one of the greats.
I always thought LL Cool J through this rap at Big Daddy Kane because Big Daddy Kane responded with his rap, and next thing you know, Big Daddy Kanes Career was over. You never heard anymore from him.
i remember it as a corny song but listening as an adult now this is hard
A message to the new generation, don't let this type of rap die...
I'm pretty sure classics like this don't die...
To late but also other person is correct. This will live on forever. It's a masterpiece.
This ain’t going no where even have a physical copy of this album 💿
Old school rap never die from brazil 🇧🇷💪
