Chip Fu on this joint is one of the hardest verses of all time. The way he intertwined sneezes and coughs and hiccups between dope bars is insane.

I tell everyone I have Never heard ANY other MC spit a 16 as lyrically complex and meta channeling Hanna Barberra cartoons and it be absolutely timelessly DOPE. Still it must’ve been HELL for the engineer to mix and eq his vocals with the coughs and quips 🤣

[@güeroCarlosM24777]

2024 Chip Fu's style is the most creative & original EVER! The nineties brought the most creative flow styles by mc's. Fortune and fame were not the only driving forces... TRUE PASSION for the art was the most indispensable ingredient, unlike today's what ever you call it... Hip hop salutes to my peers a.k.a generation x

[@craze647]

The Fu and Das Efx two of the most underrated to do it. Their flows are revolutionary

[@chapingaryjr]

Amen especially das

[@Al-With-An-A]

Chip fu only really had the crazy style out of fu schnickens, daz had thst diggety flow where as chip fu is just lyrical madness.

[@rasskasfan9117]

yeah, with das efx I agree they should get way more respect than they got But idk why they changed their flow on the fourth album if they didn't change their flow and stayed on the map they would have been in the top 10 best hip hop group No Doubt.

[@benfrizzy6728]

Poc Fu = The Suave (the most chill/relaxed one) Chip Fu = The Spectacle (the attention getter/the most talented) Moc Fu = The Slayer (the most aggressive/hardest attack) Good formula for a posse cut. I noticed on a lot of their best songs, they go in this order.

[@joegholson6790]

When I was younger I used to say Poc was wack... I just listen to a bunch of there stuff now that I'm a lot older and realize that Poc was actually dropping some barz

I ALWAYS PUMP FU-SCHNICKENS ON RAP ALBUM TAPES&CDS IN THE EARLY 90S

[@alcoyot]

I can’t stop thinking about this. First the video is a work of art, how much time did that take? So many different camera shots. And all that had to be edited with old school real film! Who made that is a real artist. I feel like they were trying to capture the youth with this. But they didn’t realize that already kids at this point weren’t into old school looney tunes any more. But also at this point rap was already going a much darker gritty directions and the colorful kids stuff being left behind. I really wish this rap group had kept going. So unique.

[@ShamanTiers]

Not everybody wanted to be a gangsta rapper funny because most of the popular gangsta rappers from this era are dead I wonder why. The fact of the matter is there were ALOT of underground rap artist like this one that never achieved mainstream success and were overshadowed by the big names but some just didn’t want to be commercialized especially with how commercial rap is today where you can’t even say certain words without a bunch of sissies through a hissy fit yet wanna act hard at the same time.
