    1. I’m sorry but its 2010, damn near 2011, and we still tryin to recapture the early 90s?! respect & pay homage to tha OGs but they’re irrelevant at this day & age. Adapt or die.

      1. Or they can just keep up what they are doing with the 90’s sound, and us with a good ear for music can get the real hip-hop instead of todays pop.

      2. I disagree bruh! Not being funny, & I respect your comment, but if these cats WERE IRRELEVANT, YOU WOULDN’T BE ON HERE POSTING ABOUT THEM NOT BEING SO! This wouldn’t have been a blip on your radar! REAL, TRUE HIP HOP STILL LIVES BRUH! It may not be “mainstream”, but the heart of hip hop is beating a lot stronger than what it was! In fact, it’s making a comeback IMHO!

    2. this nigga colorblind talkin that they irrelevant… maybe to you…. too me this is more relevant than all that fantasy rap gettin shine rite now

    3. A perfect 10! Three of the all-time greats link up to drop knowledge on all these blind 85ers! Wake the fuck up and stop letting bullshit pop-media confuse you from the plain truth! This era is mega lame when it comes to this rap shit…bring the 90’s back! Legends in any genre play themselves and lose their fanbase all the time when they attempt to “stay relevant”. Fuck that, classic artists need to stay in their lane and just focus on dropping shit with quality and integrity!

      1. so true KRS i thought you would be wiser instead of turning to racism with that “not that white people God” line, real intellectual teacher huh…..like ive always said, black people are the most racist people ever

      2. the 5% aren’t racist, krs isn’t a hypocrite, and he isn’t preaching racism in response to “true”, this is hip hop knowledge on this track

      3. Ya’ll must be white LOLOL
        Get over it, ya’ll got it(for now),
        might as well enjoy…
        Do the math 10 percenters;D

    4. Love the track, but the 5%s are some VERY misinformed brothers. The white man is NOT our enemy….WE ARE OUR OWN WORST ENEMY. The white God they’re referring to is NOT white, he’s Black. Jesus was an Israelite, not Israeli which are BLACK PEOPLE. If ANYONE would look at ancient Egyptian art, you will see that there are pictures of Black people enslaving other black people. Those other black people are Israelites, which Jesus came out of the tribe of Judah. One last thing, STOP CALLING YOURSELF GODS BECAUSE JESUS, THE FATHER, SATAN, AND THE ANGELS ARE SPIRIT BEING….THGAT MEANS THEY CAN’T DIE. I gurantee if some blew one of their grills off at point black range, they’d be dead.

      Right, God???!!!! C’mon son!!!!!!!!

    5. 4/5 cause im still waiting for the day krs stops fuckin preachin and starts rappin again dope beat lovin that puba was on it…also the whole “white man” thing is gettin mad old

      1. @ rooney

        Truth hurts, doesnt it

        And why because somebody dont wanna listen to KRS Preach and Cry like a baby, does that mean I wanna listen Soulja Retard do the Jig-a-boo shuffle??

        I’ll take option 3 and go listen to some Kool G Rap or summin

    6. Intelligent hardcore rhyming specifically designed for street knowledge.

      If you dont understand, its not meant for you. Its not racism its reality.

    7. Hearing conscious rap is always a treat. The premier beat kind of reminds me of when he produced Boom for Royce Da 5’9. Good track.

    8. we need shit like this raise ya fist and red black and green medallions my boy grand puba been on that shit since wake up!!!

    9. I’m looking forward to a time when the 5% ideology loses it’s racial connotations and recognizes that all people have the potential for being gods and devils.

      1. it may lose its connotations if the world realizes that all people come from Africa and if they dont we gave birth to societies acroos the globe asia europe aboriginal aussies we been treated like shit so long its is now the time for non 5% to do their lessons and maybe they can be accepted in,and not until then you will be walking on the correct side of the issue(s).peace be with you.

      2. @GodBody617, if people learn that anyone came from Africa… what the fuck is that gonna do us as a people?? i was taught in 5th grade that man was originated in Africa, but we in a new continent now bruh

      1. in holy books it is said that if one calls himself god and and other diety other than the creater, he is hell bound, unless god forgives him. peace and blessings be upon u

      1. good song, bra but there only one god, man is created in gods form, “whatever form god forms u in” peace and blessings

      2. Theres only one TRUE god which is the life the creates our realitys. The god referred to in the bible is most likely the same as the gods and dieties other religions refer to. God said in the book of genesis, “Let us make human beings in OUR image, make them reflectiong OUR nature.

    10. The oldest homosapien skeletons date back to 160,000 years ago and yes they were found in Africa. But explain how primitive man used stone tools for over a hundred thousand years and all the sudden developed an advanced civilization a couple thousands of years ago which is almost over night in terms of “evolution.” So something must have jump started this whether it was celestial beings who came down from the sky, or spiritual beings which manifest in our subconcious. Religion is a poison. People cling to beliefs so firm that their ego creates ideas around that belief and dismisses anything otherwise. Think of the world we would be living in if people were open to consider the knowledge they would gain from the understanding of all different view points because the fact is no one knows the truth. To think you know the truth is ignorant. Skepticism of everything allows you to look at information and interpret it for what it is.

      1. The fact that he produced Christina’s best album ever which showed her growth as an artist and proved she’s more than just a pop singer, proves prem really is the best producer doin it. What other producer can make such well rounded records, while still maintaining their signature sound? Premier still got the nicest style in the game, you corny!

    11. The races on Earth all came about at the same time, they didn’t all originate in Africa. Ancient civilizations that were more advanced than we are today were wiped out from the face of this planet. It’s an ongoing cycle. The circle of life. There is but one consciousness (god). It is experiencing itself in many different forms. Everything that exists is part of this one single consciousness.

    12. This isn’t knowledge… this isn’t wisdom…

      krs was on it before when he knew astrological comparrisons, 5%’ers pervert a simple understanding of that… and ARE those that segregate themselves…
