I just said the same thing a song with a powerful message that will stand forever this is still the times we live in now too.

As a child this meant so much to me to see the Hip-Hop community come together and bring awareness to violence in our Black communities. Hip-Hop is really much more powerful than what people know. A voice that speaks can be a voice that's heard. Hip-Hop gives America the power to bring positive change for the better, Knowledge and Understanding brings about self empowerment that liberates humanity from self Destruction✊

Sweet, I hope this doc finds a place in the Universal Hiphop museum! It ls an Important part of Hiphop history

Finally a good video recommend on KZread

This was and is iconic, classic throwback to high frequency energy. Positive energy and most of all BLACK GREATNESS 🎤🎤🎵🎵🎶🎶💕💕👑👑

Completely amazing. Remember when the song came out!

PLEASE Repost this video. It is timely and timeless. Thanks 🙏🏾🙏🏾

AS A BLACK MAN,I GOT TO BE HONEST,THINGS HAVE NOT CHANGED AT ALL AND THAT'S SAD BLACK PEOPLE

A Very Timeless Record.... will transcend many generations ... An awesome Collection of artists ... I just hope someday our young black sistas and brotha's catch on.... #FITETHEPOWA ✊🏾 🙄 Did Daddy-O quote Pee-wee Herman ...😅

Raiders were everywhere. 1991-92 I was in 7th grade a little white kid in Cincinnati suburbs and I had a Raiders Starter jacket. And then some schools banned all Raiders gear cuz it was "gang related"

fantastic archived hip-hop history clip, amazing seeing this 30yrs later, remember listening to this track in my first car.

Saw this on Video Music Box. Your copy is outstanding! Sharing!

This was 30 years ago and things have gotten worse! Our young black generation needs to see videos like this! Black on black violence/ crime is at an all time high! 80's and early 90's will always be hiphop at it's peak. Back when hiphop had a message to spread to our community! I wish the new age rappers would make music like this but unfortunately they probably won't smh (Mainstream anyway...)

They continued to make music like this. It just didn't blow up.. The closest was Kendrick Lamar with "We Gonna Be Alright." But during the BLM era of the mid '10s, they were making protest theme music.

THX 4 posting this! Didn't know this existed. I recall borrowing a VHS from a friend of mine back in the day, and it was a video version of the EDUTAINMENT album that KRS put out. Heavy D was on it, too, and he dropped some SERIOUS flames about the bush family. Peace! Also, is there a bts documentary on, "We're All In The Same Gang"?

I still have this and the West Coast Allstars "We All In The Same Gang" on vinyl.. Two of the best single 12inch I own.

I remember going to a Public Enemy concert in (Rochester, New York )1988 at the arena was full of smoke ( weed, crack, Angel Dust) it was at least 30 fights/ robberies in there. I remember trying to run and my foot got stuck in between the chairs my uncle helped get loose and next thing you 10 dudes started beating up one guy it was the craziest thing I ever seen.

Here's the thing: a lot of the mainstream acts are only using Hip-Hop (or more accurately, a corporatized version) as a lottery, where they will do ANYTHING to cash out, with no regard to the culture of Hip-Hop. I call those rappers-there are also EMCEES, like the artists in this video, and folks TODAY who aren't mainstream, i.e., KRS-ONE, Rapsody, Tiye Phoenix, P.E., Paris, Sa-Roc, Staahr, Jasiri X, LinQue/Isis, Bahamadia, David Banner, & many more who don't completely get the respect they should. It's up to US to pass down the authentic manifestation down to our children, because depending on others to do that is futile. Peace.

I like MC Lyte's light voice. I just found out recently that she was told to rap like a man when she was just starting out because her mentor or A&R at the time told her that her voice was too high pitched and light. Lil Kim and Foxy Brown had light speaking voices, too... I think female MCs should speak more in their natural voices. That's why I liked Shorty No Mass and Ladybug Mecca.. They had nice feminine voices and still sounded dope.

It's a shame that this project is not wide-spread. It's still the same and some politicians always take advantage of the black community and y'all know what party I'm talking about!

The poor with 7 sins without discipline is a dangerous element that makes a degenerate known as a criminal. Without proper parenting good schools, a community of criminal out numbers the good in society. Without good community leaders, you have a bad community who don't help schools or parents. & a government that don't back up community leaders are not fit to lead. At what point blame is accepted or recognized? What is evident are the casualties in those areas that are being ignored. But there those that try. We all should fall in line to back them up. It's a shame that it's a small impact, but it a great impact. It's part of the solution...all of us should be apart of that to be a complete solution.
