Big Daddy Kane - Aint No Half Steppin | REACTION!! FIREEE!🔥🔥🔥

[@sharonjarrett8953]

Big Daddy Kane Legend in the Rap Game🔥🔥🔥🔥”Smooth Opertor”

[@Habeev07]

Legend.. more like one of if not the GOAT. When this came out summer 88' ... THE RAP GAME WAS CHANGED FOREVER. This set the tone for the entire golden age to come. The ominous yet playfull beat was so HARD and the lyrics had more rhyme scheme and wordplay than just about anything human ears had heard before. THIS IS WHY IMO KANE IS THE GOAT OF HIP-HOP. He was a battle MC than even had Rakim ducking him bc he knew Kane would tear him apart in a battle. KANE, RAKIM, KRS-ONE... Thats my 3 greatest rappers/MC's of all-time. Then you can throw in guys like Lil Wayne, Jay-Z, Eminem, Tupac, Biggie, Kool G-Rap, Ol Dirty Bastard, Nas, etc...KANE, RAKIM, KRS-ONE WERE NOT EXACTLY THE FIRST TO DO IT... BUT THE FiRST TO SET THE BAR WHICH IS STILL THE STANDARD OF FLOW.

[@Ray1969.]

This was the golden age of rap!! When rappers like Kane, KRS-1, Pete Rock, Public Enemy etc actually had something to say and educate.

[@reginaldjiles4759]

Back then, guys had to have lyrics to make it in the game.

[@glamourisbest]

He was a mentor to Jay-Z. You can hear his “punch line” style of lyricism in Jay-Z’s rhymes. I LOVE Big Daddy Kane. He is a rap master. I Get the job done, Raw and Set it Off are great too.

[@GC-gb2jv]

I think you are talking about Jaz-O.

[@bigb2494]

Not so much a mentor, but he recognized his talent when he met Jaz O. Tried to help Jay get signed, but they didn't work out so he let Jay open some shows for him to get his name out there. His DJ Mister Cee is credited for helping Biggie get on

[@kcacosta7083]

"I came back in a plane yall niggas ain't rapping the same , I seen the same shit happen to Kane! Jay z ! React to Do I Again Jay Z

[@russelljenkins2158]

Nufff card the top that gave birth to 90,'s rappers

[@TheLegmann]

Jay Z has been borrowing from the best his entire career.

[@smittybenzo4693]

It was never weird to call this legend by his name. We wanted to hear his style and grace which was a new chapter in hip hop.

[@derekabdullah7618]

You can't get no more old-school than Big Daddy Kane he deserve to be in a rap Hall of Fame with Def jam cuts like that

[@louispulitano7087]

I was 18 yrs old in high school when this came out.. Man did I kill this song!! 😁🔥

[@YhwhKhaiMostHigh]

Fun Fact! How many know when he said, "I put words together like Letterman" he was referring to the character from The Electric Company series back in the 70s?

[@rpduke5691]

Hmmm. You got me on that. I always thought it was a play on DAvid LETTERMAN" and he's putting WORDS together which obviously uses letters, so he's a Letter-Man.

[@Habeev07]

Now thats dictation... ; )

[@YhwhKhaiMostHigh]

@@rpduke5691 Me and BDK grew up in the same era and same borough of NYC, where mostly all of the kids back then watched The Electric Company or kung fu movies :) . It was a very popular show and my favorite as a kid. We all knew "The Adventures of Letterman" and how he put together letters to make words. I could be wrong, but I really don't think so. Parents had their children watching PBS channel back in those days because it was very educational. Not so much any more.

[@redjohn6486]

I always think these dudes need an old head in the room to explain those references to them. 😂

[@killacam139]

My man stopped and said masterpiece..I feel u youngin

[@stobe187]

there were only a few guys this lyrical and smooth back in 88

[@davidwatson7196]

Great video reaction!!!! 1) RAW 2) Set it Off 3) Wrath of Kane 4) Warm it up Kane 5) Young, Gifted & Black In that order. Then you will understand why rappers like Eminem, Jadakiss, Jay Z, Remy Ma, etc praises Big Daddy Kane.

[@rollingstoned1717]

💯💯💯

[@ms.undastood2586]

A timeless classic!

[@MrJonathanwant1972]

Big daddy Kate is one of the best to ever do it I have been listening to hip hop for 40 years

[@kennethlopez6527]

Kane, G Rap, and Pop Smoke are my 3 favorite rappers of all time. Kane was just so ahead of his time. man, this dude was amazing. I remember watching Music Box with Ralph Mcdaniels and watching this video back in the day. Kane has it all- delivery, presence, cadence, incredible vocabulary, etc etc etc.

[@sheischic77]

His flow is serious ....the punch lines ...

[@killacam139]

One of my fav raps ever...Kane created a style never before seen in hip hop

[@ampthefreethinker5335]

God mc big daddy kane 💯

[@eddiewiggins5651]

This was when hip-hop music was at its best, and as you can see, he, along with others like him, knew how to make their lyrics flow without calling a woman her name or even dissing another artist in their music.

[@BrianLevine-q7e]

Im a White man now in my early '60's. Saw BD Kane in Boston 1990.

[@scusa2023]

[@mystapaul]

Yo check out mortal Kombat by big daddy Kane

[@cherylwhite2189]

I would NOT be half steppin towards you Daddy O. Lol. Give me a chance. Please.

[@xevious2501]

For the younger gens out their. you must realize a big deal about the music back then was the big beats. this is one song that deserved strong deep powerful bass. Kane's could spit simple but impactful lyrics. consider the rapping styles like boxing bars are important but also the footwork the jabs, bobbing and weaving, not all about trying to knock your opponent out with a single punch, but rather breaking them down lyrically and efficiently. you also have to understand the era. 80's 90's the world was a very different place. simpler times but no less hard. all be it far less stupid than what we see today.

[@antonyouten5447]

When rap was good. Like actually good.

[@jesseshaw4495]

Hey Shawny, do you ever get copyright strikes? If not, how do you avoid them?
