Lyrics
I stagger in the gatherin', possessed by a patter-in that be scatterin'
Over the global, my vocals be travelin', unravelin' my abdomen
It's slime that's babblin' grammatics that are masculine
#Common #Resurrection #HipHop #Rap

The video is everything. Black America, the 90's, the inner city, Chicago. Raps videos just ain't the same nowadays

[@meyou5789]

Nah, best jazz hip hop song of all time is "Rebirth Of Slick (Cool Like Dat)" by Digable Planets stop playin' lol. Then you got tracks like One To Grow On by UMC's kzbin.info/www/bejne/mYuQh42ClMqXntE ... Award Tour by ATCQ is a pure Jazz Hip Hop track. This is not best of all time but it is Dope As Fuck tho 4sure

[@craigr4763]

@@meyou5789 Oh c'mon my dude, I ain't playin' lol. I LOVE 'One to Grow On' by UMC's and always have (don't need the link, but thanks anyway). You've mentioned a couple of brilliant tracks, which goes to show how hard it is to pick one! I think the piano riff and vibe of this track is awesome, but I could name a very long list of others. Also, I think there are better songs that qualify from Digable Planets than 'Cool Like Dat', and I LOVE Digable Planets too. If I had to try and pick one song from all of them to cover all bases and present the general vibe, then it's hard to argue against 'Resurrection'. 'Award Tour', I would say, is certainly less of an embodiment of what it means to be a jazz-hop song than the others. Nice talking to another avid hip-hop fan though.

Good and bad memories crazy times

This was exactly the cinematic eyescape of my daily life in Chicago... I remember wanting a Billion Bay jacket like the shorty at 2:05, but was blessed to be the only one with a Billion Baby bubble jacket while everyone else had First Down, and Triple Goose. I love my city. It's made consistent improvements and I'm delighted each time I visit home after moving to the East Coast.

I’m watching this as I’m about to turn 30. First heard this version of Resurrection when I was 15 when I started emceeing. It takes me back to when my best friend at the time and I would trade bars back and forth at school at lunch. He passed away a few years ago and never got to see 30.. but when I hear this song often it’s almost like he didn’t really go anywhere. God bless Common and No I.D
