Let me school you on a few things. Back in the 70's, 80's and early 90's we didn't care what color you were, if you are truly down. 3rd Bass was one of those white groups that were down. If you grew up in the culture, respected it and had skills, your color, race didn't matter. One of the big issues I have about today is how everything is put into categories or boxes and if you don't fit a group you can't partake in a certain culture. BTW the last rapper was MF DOOM...R.I.P #oneblood #onelove

That was totally the vibe I got growing up as a rural Canadian, from a lot of the music of the era... Real hip-hop is a 'religion' of peace, love, self-improvement, athletics, DIY, amd freedom... It got weird somewhere along the way... And neither of you are wrong, just, despite how close to 60s Civil Rights it was, it WAS a reflection of what had been fought for, even in the atrocious city conditions of the time... It wasn't open-open, but if you could prove your worth to hip-hop, you were accepted by it...

If anyone thinks that hip hip was only black culture, they don't know the history. The inception of hip hop was black, Latino and white. Many white brother and sisters were taggers, writers, DJ's, MC's and B-Boys. Let's not forget that.

I know this is old but I'm glad you realized what groups like 3rd Bass was all about. Their subsequent album Derelicts of Dialect was deeper, maybe not as playful as the first and is still my favorite album they did. They went after Vanilla Ice on that one. Serch was also one of the earlier people that helped bring Nas to fame.

Fun fact: 3rd Bass dissed Beastie Boys on the track "Sons of 3rd Bass," but got destroyed by MCA on the track "Professor Booty." And that was the end of it. In fact, years later, MC search straight up said if they ever made another 3rd Bass album, they'd have to put an apology song to Beastie Boys on it.

It is impressive that back in the early 1990s 3rd Bass were Woke enough to speak out against injustice against Black people, and on basically their breakout song. The rapper in the chair is Pimp Minister Pete-Nice, the cat with glasses and the tall fade is MC Serch, and the beats are laid down by DJ Richie Rich who was one of the very first DJs America ever saw do full-on turntablism on national TV (remember the Arsenio Hall show?) Thanks for the awesome trip back in time on this track, and keep up the great work! Rest in power, MF DOOM, co-writer on this track with Serch, Pete Nice, and Prince Paul

Zev Love X is now known as MF DOOM R.I.P. From 3rd Bass check out Product of the Environment, and Brooklyn-Queens. If you start getting in to MF DOOM check out DOOMSDAY.

The Prime Minister "Pete Nice" from 3rd Bass opened up the one and only Hip Hop Museum in the Bronx, NY.. Over the years, Pete Nice was an avid collector of all sorts of hip hop memorabilia. He's actually got Run DMC's shell top Adidas, Flavor Flav's clock and LL Cool J's kango on display. That spot is too dope of a throwback featuring all the pioneers that paved the way..

Keep the old school reactions coming. Great to see the appreciation for classic hip hop as well as the classic rock jams you’re doing. Since you’re checking out 3rd Bass, for me, Wordz of Wizdom was the standout from their first album. That track showed they had a strong flow. Sons of 3rd Bass was also a good track, a diss record where they came at the Beastie Boys.

The third rapper you asked about was none other than the recently passed legend MFDOOM back during his days with KMD.

Brooklyn Queens is another good 3rd Bass jam.

Third Bass was on Def Jam with LL, EPMD and Public Enemy. I think you already know the connection with Run DMC and Def Jam.

The rap from 1987 to 1994 was the best there ever was and ever will be

3rd Base is one of my all timers that NO ONE talks about any longer

3rd rapper was Zev Love X from KMD, mostly known now as MF DOOM. rip DOOM

Geeezus I’ve been waiting on some real hiphop classic! Dope!

The anti-Hammer sentiment came from 2 things. First, Hammer insinuated that he was better than Run DMC and LL Cool J in a verse on "Turn This Motha Out". Plus, Hammer was seen by the "hardcore" MC's as a "poppy" sellout. So, 3rd Bass saw themselves as riding for the culture. This could've went south because Hammer's brother was a Crip and put a hit out on them. They had to hire an OG to travel with them to the West Coast to defuse any conflicts... and there were a few.

Gilbert Gottfried is the comedian. Pete Nice was in the chair. Not Rock, Rap. Black rapper was Zev Love X from KMD who later became MF Doom after his brother DJ Subroc got killed, (the one he says doesn't get the gasface with the twists), hell of a DJ and producer. As you can see, they came out for them. There are vids on the 3rd Bass/Hammer feud.

It's been over 30 years since I've heard this or thought of 3rd Base. Very crazy feeling.

NOBODY CAN FUCK WITH 3RD BASS! They were brothas with light skin! Rear Like A 50 pound Diamond!

Holy shit! I was in high school when this came out i loved these dudes. The cactus album was best

I'm a little bit late to this video but I'm going to hook you up. MC Serch and Pete Nice were white kids that grew up in the hood. They saw the oppression and discrimination first hand. Serch being a Jewish kid got to feel some of it too. So who were those people you didn't recognize in the video. The very first person for the intro looking all wacky was Doug E. Doug the comedian. He was just coming up when he jumped on to be in the video. You might remember him as Sanka in "Cool Runnings" about the Jamaican Bobsled team at the Olympics. He's still acting and doing comedy but he has a nice catalog of work that he's been in. The next person you didn't know the name of was the comedian Gilbert Gottfried. At the time of this video, he was just starting to get recognized but he really blew up after and can be seen in a lot of TV and movies. You asked about that guest rapper towards the end. That was Zev Love X who was a member of KMD at the time. KMD was like a Rap/R&B boyband at the time that never really got big. Zev ended up leaving the group and rebranding himself as MF Doom but faded away without ever getting any airplay. In the video you noticed a lot of other talent, here's why. 3rd Base had a lot of cred and respect for pure and simple talent. They made all kinds of friends within the industry by working WITH other teams rather than against them. They made friends in other production stables. DefJam, Herbie Lovebug's, Prince Paul's, etc etc. And when they went public with their own recordings, they had strong endorsements from these other artists and production companies who sometimes just showed up to the video shoots. Gas Face was 3rd Base's debut video and many of them wanted to be included to show support. The beef with Hammer. There were a lot of rappers who didn't appreciate Hammer for two big reasons. First of all, he was a very talented performer and excellent dancer, no one disputed that. However, unlike other rappers who wrote their own rhymes and laid out their own beats, after Hammer's debut, his production company took care of all that for him. They hired his writers and music production team to do the work for him. The second reason is because he hit the music business lottery. He got signed to a major label and went from street kid to flamboyant diva practically overnight. There are some who argue that he bought dishonor to the craft with his behavior. To add insult to injury, he showed poor judgment and business sense that was an embarrassment for many in the music industry when he literally ended up broke in just a few short years. And then lets discuss the argument of Cultural Appreciation with white rappers. When Vanilla Ice made his first rap video, he literally had to hire Black actors to play his friends. He was a white guy from Florida who grew up in an affluent neighborhood racing motorbikes but he still wanted to rap about a thug life that he never lived. Hmmm, that sounds fishy. Eminem rapped about the life he lived whether it was pretty or ugly. Beastie Boys weren't trying to be street, they wanted to rap about what they knew. Real rappers write what they know and live. MC Serch and Pete Nice came up on our streets and knew our life because they lived in our world and rapped about it. When other rappers were being accused of cultural appropriation, 3rd Base weren't. As someone in his 50's who came up in Brooklyn during the birth of Hip Hop and the B-boy break dancing on the street generation, you just got the inside scoop from someone who was there when it was happening. From what I hear, these days MC Serch is working for a music company or something related to that and Pete Nice runs a sports memorabilia company. And they all lived happily ever after.

3rd Bass is as deep-rooted in Hip Hop as it gets. Serch is the one who helped put Nas on. He was in a position to negotiate on Nas behalf and he got Nas a fair, I think even a good, record deal. DJ Richie Rich (Daddy Rich) was among the best deejays of the time. 3rd Bass is absolutely, hands down, in the upper echelon of the Hip Hop Annals. The Cactus Album is a masterpiece of Hip Hop.

The third rapper is Zev Love X aka MF Doom. RIP

Definitely react to KMD/MF DOOM, rip the legend.

Pete Nice is the dude in the chair, hammer was wack when he came into the game and worked hard to get respect

MF DOOM - BEEF RAP!!!!

This was probably already addressed seeing as this video is a year and a half old but the reason they dissed Hammer in this video\song was because Hammer was dissin Run DMC & other rap pioneers in some of his songs.

They only released 2 albums. The Cactus Album (from which this was taken) was excellent. The follow up was a little more ‘serious’ (a few obvious tracks like Pop Goes The Weasel - sampling Peter Gabriel’s Sledgehammer) aside. But this song has always been great. There’s many more highlights on their debut album.

In the 80's these boys were up there with the best of them. Them and Beasties was music we got high on. Good ole days!
