I love how detailed Premo gets with his story telling. Had no idea Travis Scott parents would be brought up 😂. This man is legendary. He remembers every little detail. Even shout outed the judge and kept his homie out of jail.

This and "Come Clean" are maybe Preemo's most Preemo beats.
On the low, the Group Home first album is one of the best produced in the entire history of hip hop. It IS the east coast sound of the early 90s!

I honestly think this is Premiers greatest beat
This series is incredible - these stories are absolute gold. Primo the legend ✊
My god I agree with Common, the production on that Living Proof album was crazy!!!
Never stopped listening to The Group Home ..my era of hip hop
I remember in late 80s 'Just to get a Rep, & all thru the 90s. Got my teenage swag from Guru, Kango hat, lines in the eyebrows was my thing, I seen Guru pull it off well. The ladies Loved it, lol. Pumping Mass appeal on Broadway Bushwick. Then starstruck seeing Guru in the village NYC. MIND U I SEEN MANY FAMOUS PEOPLE & NEVER STARSTRUCK. & My younger brother seen him in a Barbershop in East NY BK. We're in 2022 & I'm still bumping the same swag & music. GANGSTARR 4LIFE! #GANGSTARR #RIPGURU
Group Home - Livin’ Proof LP is Premier’s best production ever! He was in a complete zone that I don’t think was ever replicated. Premier is the G.O.A.T. but this LP’s production is the reason why he is the G.O.A.T. I love both Jeru/Premier LPs but this Livin’ Proof vibe is timeless. And it had two hits (Supa Star and Livin’ Proof). And ‘Tha Realness’ is the hardest Premier track EVER! Shout out to Guru and Big Jaz who also had production on this LP. One of my favorite LPs of all time. Salute Dap and Malachi and thank you Premier.

One of thee dopest albums everrrrrrr!! Still rock that Living Proof album. Suspended in Time was my shit.
"So Called Friends"...I remember when this dropped!!! Love that song!!! That sample!!!
I can't believe that DJ Premier himself runs his blog to tell us how those classics been made!I have goosebumps everytime i hear the chorus of "Livin' proof" with those scratches and a weird bell effect right before the second verse!What a classic. We love you Premier, keep it coming! You are Hip-Hop!
I remember buying 2 copies of this single on vinyl (because that’s what DJs did). And bumping this. Trying to come up with some routines. Great memories this beat brings.
Man, the impact this had. The whole album is a straight end to end burner. I remember having 5 to 8hr drives to visit family & this cassette would be on back to back the whole way.
We were spoiled to be having all of these dope ass albums in the 90s and Group Home was definitely my shit back then and still is to this day!
One of my favorite Group Home songs! The Legacy is up there too! RIP to the Bald Head Slick
One of the best-produced albums of premier career 🙌🏾 Incredible album.
Primo is an Earthly Treasure. One of the most important artists in music.
This is definitely a joint made for blasting from good speakers (good car system, home stereo, etc), but if you have some good headphones, you can still hear and feel the rumble. Definitely one of the classics.
That album....Pure 90s boom bap niceness......Cold
I'm gonna play "Suspended In Time" on the ride home tonight after watching this episode (and yes, I have full-blooded sound in the whip). This is a GREAT series! Thank You, Premier....
One of the simplest yet hardest and incredible hip hop beats of alllllllll time.
DJ Premier is a true legend man dude is so passionate about producing !
Sacrifice, Up against the wall remix, 2 thousand, the realness with that ill Bob James sample; Premier was in his bag for this record right here, salute to Premier, Group Home and the Gangstarr Foundation
My life story, nuff said...Hip Hop will never be the same, til these days I go crazy when the song plays...super timeless classic, Peace to Dap n' Nutcracker (they did they thing Emceeing) Lotta knowledge and jewelz was dropped on the whole LP...Props to Preemo
Made a classic album with group home
Shout out to the best hip hop album of all time !!!! LIVIN PROOF🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I saw Group Home, supporting Cypress Hill (I think) in the UK in 1995 (I think - again, its a long time ago). Loved them so much I bought their CD and sticker I used to rock on my bag as a teenager. I love these stories, much like many - because they take you back to a time...
This album is an all time favorite. Such a cohesive sound … every element unconventional yet perfect. It sets a mood like few records can.
One of my all-time favorite Premier beats!
Another classic. For another classic. Gotta love Primo.
All classical groups and awesome hits. Group home, gang starr, Jeru...real 90's og's
Felt the beat bumping in my head soon as I read the title!

Group home are real dudes with a unique flow... met them in Missouri while touring... peace n blessings to the soldiers... and all Gangstarr affiliates... rip Guru
The history in the episodes! I love every one of them.
Man, that whole album is classic💯Can’t wait. So glad you blessed us with this series.
One of my favorite Premier produced albums. From start to finish
Group Home's Livin Proof is the definition of boom bap, best era in hip hop.
I was waiting for this, coming from the heart of Middle East, Iran, Group Home LP will never leave my record bag, Jeru’s one as well
Love this album. Group Home may not be the most incredible rappers on earth but Premos production is so good that the collaboration is an instant classic. Premiers beats can elevate anyone. So good. 👍
Yessir! In my Collection as we speak still banging til this day.
I'm from Cali and was 18 when this dropped. Changed my whole perspective on hip hop. Still gets a spin at least once a month til this day. Salute 💯
Supastar was dope but Livin Proof had such a nice bounce to it. Keep these stories coming!
Dap still been droppin'. Group Last album was from a German label, and you can tell they were true fans, cause the tried to resurrect the whole sound. Dap did 95% with a few shout outs from Nutcracker, but man, gritty stuff. Hard copy CD cost me $25.00 off the rip cause it was a rare overseas pressing. On my shelf with ALL Group Home/Dap/GangStarr releases as we speak.

Livin proof will be forever ♾️ best song & beat ever ✊🏾🤘🏾☝🏾🍾
Some say the rhymes were too simple in Livin Proof, and Supa Star. But I can't imagine someone doing those GH beats better justice. Group home just had the flow, the rawness, hunger, unique flair and direct stripped down to the bone street rhymes/knowledge. And with that they were the perfect added instrument to those Premier beats and vice versa. A perfect complimentary layer.

Group Home is not well known today, but back then as a DJ in Germany, my Club People where BANGIN to them Tracks! I'm glad you brought them up and reminded us how amazing your Productions are! A True Legend Dj Premier! This is REAL Hip Hop for me, where the Rappers are sharing stories they went through, and not these Trap-Rappers now-a-days! Super Star was great, and i still like the Synth on New East NY Theory! When you hear today, it still sound fresh!
After purchasing Superstar 12" in Paris while it was released, I've waited so long for the album to come. This first single was so deep and promising and I was always reading the back cover and known that the D&D, Eddy Sancho was THE HIP HOP SOUND I loved. Peace from France. I discovered Livin Proof in Switzerland the first time in the biggest hip hop group of the country at the time, Sens Unik. When the dj put the vinyl to play in the studio with a huge sound, I was amazed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks for this Primo!
Livin Proof, forever underrated. Absolute classic material.
Shouts to Premier with the Mantronix Vinyl in the back, Premier and Kurtis Mantronik are absolute legends and innovators in Hip-Hop
Group Home never left my playlist!! Pure hip hop 💯
I was totally fascinated first time i listened to living proof. I didn't understand it. It felt so raw. It's my foundation for the love of hip hop
I'd just left the Army and came back home to Detroit in 1995. I was working at a department store in the hood that had a small music shop within it. I looked in the CD rack and saw the Group Home album. Picked it up and saw DJ Premier and Guru's names on it. Once I'd seen that I knew the album was gonna be official. I was beyond right. Shout-out DJ Premier the living legend and the entire Gang Start foundation...👍
Preemo.. thank you for everything. Gifted Unlimited Rhymes Universal, Infinitely. Also, thank you for what you did for my Family ( 78 West ). Love & Respect
So many incredible memories of Gangstarr and Ganagstarr Foundation! The show Ganagstarr did in the Mid 90s in the UK was the best show I have see in The Forum in Kentish Town. Me and my crew was some rowdy dudes back then.... After the show Guru came into the crowd and was hanging with us... One of my best memories of hip hop. Love you guys for that realness. Livin Proof certified classic!
one of the greatest hip hop records of all time! more people should know about this classic
I hope this series never ends! I can watch this series forever!
I remember my 85 Cutlass Supreme with the soft interior and that deep bass that catches and it's like it has a mind of its own cause you can't hear it on headphones it has to be in a system with some thump!!! Maaannn, those were the dayz, if you read this Premo, just know you got some of us through some hard times and always kept it funky and this is from a small town just north of Tampa. Rest in Peace Guru. Thanks for inspiring so many of us. It's all about the real hip-hop 💪🏼👌🏼✊🏼
GOTTA HAVE EARS, AND WITH THAT SAID.....GROUP HOME'S FIRST ALBUM IS STILL THE BUMP!!!!!! DUSTY SAMPLES, DRUMS AND RHYMES.... EPITOME OF TRUE YORK CITY PREEMO!!!!!!!!
One of the greatest Hip hop tracks that exists
One of my favorite albums of all time.
The Suspended in Time remix with the girl from Groove Therory!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I can listen to you talk, forever man...feel like I'm chilling, out with my uncle! ✌🏼
Could listen to hours of Premier telling stories! Great stuff!
How sad are the nine people that put thumbs down on this video? Big-ups to you Primo! You the Goat!
This song for me is my ultimate hiphop song. Classic album! It made me wanna make music!
Premier I don’t think I can find the words to explain how much your beats, Guru’s rhymes and the entire Gang Starr foundation did for my life. #legendsofthegame4real
Life as a shorty shouldn't be so rough! Peace to rebel ins for a dope quote forever in hip hop history
primo you are the best teacher i never had....Thanks Primo.
Lil Dap's rhyme's on that album truly capture a New York feel, an everyman soul, and deep values. That was one of the last album's of classic hip hop. Stories like this by Premier are what we have left. Thank you.
Possibly Prem’s best production on this project
