Mos Def feat. Pharoahe Monch & Nate Dogg - Oh No

[@mr.speyside5240]

Pharoahe is so underrated. Dude spits like his life is on the line.

[@timasani1]

I've said this a million times

[@starkzwillig3682]

That's old school, because your REP used to be on the line (which is sort of like your life). Now its a different world.

[@jackmerriman4445]

I know this is late i went to watch him in england and there were only like 15 people there, bit sad really

[@Krayzie_BoneTM19]

Jazz cafe?

[@silentrevolver4600]

Every serious lyricist be studying Pharoahe’s bars. Technically dude played with them bars like playdo, shift, shape and still have that shit nicely fitted.

[@vmack]

Nate Dogg tha hookmaster, killed this shit here,,R.I.P

[@MettalicMario99]

Not just the Master, he is the king of hooks.

[@Outlawed1]

Pharoahe’s verse in this is hands down one of the best in hip hop history !!!

[@ThatDudewhodudes]

Pharoahe's verse it's so good it hurts

[@troylaurie3744]

yup

[@fuquay-varina184]

you know what bites is turning on the radio to hear fetty wap's corny ass voice after you just bumped to this.

[@PunkxJunkiex]

"I'm intellectual Pass more essays Than motorcade police parades Through East LA" .... Come on

[@carlharden9569]

put that mic boy drop that!!!

[@lookitsapanther]

It's honestly pound for pound one of the dopest verses ever lyrically. The dude snapped on this beat for real.

[@AR-ii3ly]

Before hip-hop met its untimely death Mos Def, Pharaoh Monche and Nate Dogg gave us the ultimate hip hop track ever.

[@farleyhaskard5270]

Its not dead yet IMO. Its worse maybe, but j cole, mac miller, Kanye, are still good. I know mac is dead so maybe that doesnt count

[@MrTitanSword]

Only song on Earth I can listen to a hundred times in a row without getting bored!!! R.I.P Nate

[@mondola]

Pharoahe Monch is the highest level of rapping on this planet.

[@gwiltl]

+mondola No.

[@Madvillayo]

+wunas96 educate yourself

[@alexmendoza5277]

I've been saying this for years monch is extremely underrated

[@SwissMarksman]

+mondola mhm .. okay

[@RideBikes_Walkplaces]

+mondola lowkey

[@yomommaNyadaddy]

I don't give a fuck what people think this shit and the 90s and 80s was real hip hop dawg, u feel the quality and passion put into the production like they care, now u got rappers on world star releasing mix tapes every month n shit quality sucks but still got people from suburbs to the ghetto bumpin their shit

[@extraterrestriall6369]

KZbin gay gangsta

[@libery4me]

I felt the same way but at the end of the day it's a legit job. We might not like a lot of the junk that's out but I refuse to keep putting them down. They are only doing what they have to do to survive. If you could make 💰 off of what ever others felt you sucked at you would do it. At least respect what they are "tryna" do.

[@extraterrestriall6369]

Lol they're barely & seldom paid to rap anywhere because every block has 99 wanna be rappers who are trying to also be Nino Brown & Scarface except with the intelligence of Forrest Gump.Rap is not a way of survival when I see others just working minimum wage with much more because they know how to save & not try to dress & party like the actual rappers who are paid millions a week .....

[@stellymae46]

I agree with you on that 100%

[@shanebest4699]

you aint lie homie

[@barryozimek2978]

Two Legendary verses A Legendary hook A legendary beat. And people don't like this song...

[@yadig3503]

I was in 8th grade, this shit still fire 16 years later!!!

[@farleyhaskard5270]

Lmao I m in 8th grade now and this song is great IMO

[@Menkhor]

"I've passed more essays than motorcade police parades through East L.A." The greatest rhyme in history. Pharoahe is da King!

[@MuammarHamed]

You are absolutely right! I read your comment about pharaoh and I literally tried to search for a harder hip hop line couldn't do it! I'm 45 years old I seen hip hop get started I was around with it was an embryo so I know what I'm talkin about! Great post

[@510island]

This is a prime example of the power of Nate Dogg. His smooth hook turned an overly lyrical hip-hop song into what was a radio friendly classic amidst an era of prominent commercialism. RIP Nate Dogg. Also, Messy Marv's "Oh No pt 2 ft Nate Dogg" is more than worth checking out.

[@FlyBoysWareHouse]

This song is something really exceptional. Beat, lyrics and Nate Dogg, damn classics...

[@Cmoney860]

Pharoah Monch is nasty.....hands down. This dude does NOT ever spit a wack verse. He never ceases to amaze me. I was never one of them backpack type dudes with big rasta hats growin up with funny glasses.....but much props to dude and Mos Def as well. RIP Nate. We miss you kid

[@nickhalsema422]

I honestly think this might be the best hook/hooks in the history of hip hop

[@brothacaim]

it is certainly sang by probably the best hook singer of rap history

[@brooklynforreal5166]

nick halsema not da best.. but top5 hook dat beat was incredible as fuck

[@jermaineroles3072]

nick halsema Nate was the best at hooks plus he was a gangsta that only sings.

[@Tosiurpo]

@@brothacaim definitely not one of the best. He is THE best.

[@MMAGUY00]

This is top 10 best Pharoahe Monch's verse, no doubt!

[@jessenirvana21]

iraklis perakis Behind closed doors... two of the best ten lol

[@thelankytank]

I'd also say it's a top 5 nate dogg track. Regulate, Xxplosive, Bitch please 2, til i collapse, oh no!

[@gibberconfirm166]

iraklis perakis He should do just like a freestyle album, I think he's the best rapper in the world and his talents have been kinda fucked up by the market.

[@ovechkin8able]

Organized Konfusion - Bring It On, another classic from him

[@christophercutlass4105]

especially when it comes to Prisoners Of War!!

[@thesilent1975]

Pharoahe; OH MY GOSH!!!!!!!!!!!!! Dude is insane. EVERY single bit of his verse killed it.

[@xGriz58x]

If this wasn't the one of the best rap songs in recent memory, then I have no idea what was..classic

[@merijnvankeulen2973]

one of my absolute favorite tracks they all killed it

[@JohnBoyBeattie]

Just pure genius. All three of them were incredible on this. One of the best Hip Hop songs ever.

[@VossenWheels]

Geez they both ripped it but Pharoahe KILLED it.

[@stellymae46]

Mos Def is also a great actor too, seen some of his movies

[@seshtillirest2175]

stellymae46 what are some of the movies he's been in that you would recommend?

[@rewy11]

SeshTill IRest 16 Blocks is very good. It should still be on netflix.

[@seshtillirest2175]

[@clintharward9942]

his role in the Italian Job was good too.

[@ghettochild323]

RIP Nate Dogg...straight classic. Everything Nate touched was off the charts. True OG...wadup. East Los on top...#respect

[@malenonde]

Gosh what a classic song!!!!!!!RIP Nate Dogg

[@MtBoMbEr3]

I was never raised with this type of music, I was never introduced to this type of music, I never heard it blasting from other people's headphones, a long trail of music search and acceptance eventually brought be to this ill fucking beat.

[@andrewhenderson4462]

[@howtorapbook572]

Pharoahe Monch, as well as groups like Wu, Tribe, Pharcyde, Mobb Deep, and many others were spoken to to preserve all the true methods of emceeing in a couple of classic books, *HOW TO RAP* & *HOW TO RAP 2*.
