Heard it the first time in Dallas 1989, I'm from Holland and was visiting.... will never forget that moment.

[@markchevrier9756]

Yo dude you are by far the best KZbin content creator I've come across after all these years. I had my mind blown when, after watching your deep dives on these albums I love so much, I randomly googled "funk bass lines" trying to expand my personal repertoire and the video that popped up and was most interesting was YOURS. The one about the soundcheck bass lines lol. Keep up the good work man, you seriously deserve all the success I believe is headed your way.

[@diggingthegreats]

Thank you man, this comment means a lot 🙏

[@92boostedh22]

Damn, I don’t think I’ve ever seen content like this. I remember all the Hip House growing up in the late 80’sin Chicago. Tyree Cooper, Sundance, Fast Eddie even Too Cool Chris. I talk about this genre and people look at me like huh? Awesome job on this one!

[@clobberonline6812]

The UK loved this tune !!!

[@CalBeau5]

Their performance on KEXP was mind blowing yo!

[@garyscott9364]

I knew it was going to be a house classic the very first time I heard it. With that beat and the many meanings to I’ll house you, I knew it would stand the test of time. To this day I still try to introduce youngins to it lol. Thank you for posting this. I was getting hyped just from hearing that little bit of house played. Also big shout out to DJ Red Alert! I don’t think he gets the recognition that he deserves.

[@nikfiendluvr666]

Love how Bam holds the mic like he's about to spit bars even when he's just talking normally lol

[@MicrolabMusic]

Yoyo Get Funky with DJ Fast Eddie is for me the ultimate Hip House track. I would love to hear newly produced Hip House tracks!

[@benji.B-side]

I song I've dropped in mixes for decades, it's timeless and I never tire of listening to it. Move Your Body is also one of the best House tracks ever made. Both I've rocked to on the dance floor and behind the decks. They will never leave my playlist and the bop in my body.

[@SPINNINGMYWHEELS777]

doesn't move the crowd in these parts but I'm detroit so these crowds don't put up with schtick. MOve your body different story of course since it's the real deal. If I play it in a mix , no more than a few bars . No one misses it being mixed out.

[@djflipside33]

Love love love this!!!! Thank you for including this story!!! Chicago Love!!!!

[@lemuelmalik8347]

Those of us that attended hbcus in the late 80s early 90s heard this song and absolutely went crazy each time it would come on and then my sophomore year the jungle Brothers come to Cheyney University and perform for spring break and we tore up the place in a good way though

[@ttak82]

Fun fact: technotronics pump up the jam, which was inspired from Ill house You was sampled in Streets of Rage 1 opening track.

One of the most important hip hop albums and shamefully overlooked in the 50th birthday celebrations.

Great video, as an Acid House producer who started playing keyboards after hearing Herbie Hancock's Rock It I highly appreciate this content. Love me some Hip House too...

[@AngelusNielson]

Good interviewing. Thanks, for just letting him talk and not trying to interject yourself like some interviewers do.

Yo found your channel a couple weeks ago dude this is the most amazing thing I've ever seen in my life. as a person who's always enjoyed making beats and playing around with making beats this is very entertaining. thank you, your production your effort, your music ability, your knowledge...good job man keep it up

[@diggingthegreats]

Classic, so many good dance nights to this track!

[@fred5nyc]

Man I was 17 when this song came out in the Lower east side, classic banger.

[@dominicwood3750]

Saw the JBs at The Jazz Cafe a couple of years ago - they still got it what a show - so many big tunes as well

[@jlr194]

Still one of my favorite house records

[@VinylStash]

Great video, loved the history behind this icomic track. As a UK DJ this was the kinda stuff I was playing when I first started, so many great memories and tracks from back then....Mr.Lee, Tyree Cooper, Fast Eddie, Deskee, Cookie Crew, Bomb The Bass

[@quique7764]

So many memories attached to this song

Twin Hype - Do It To the Crowd = GOAT Hip house tune.

It’d be great to see a video mapping out the sub-genres of hip hop over time - that’s a big task but you’re the guy to do it!

Damn!!! He even brought up twin hype. For those who like to groove was in my crate too. This video brought back memories of my best partying ever. 💯😂🤗👊🏽

[@jamesbullock9209]

I just discovered this channel and I can’t stop binge watching!! These are the same tracks I played to a reluctant audience back when I was in high school as a DJ, only for them to embrace the love of hip-hop/house/electronic etc. music that I had. Hearing the back stories only makes me proud to be in tune with the future of music back then. Consider me subscribed!!!

[@27remdog27]

I have been completely obsessed with this song recently

[@15twoe]

As a Chicago native, I hate to be that guy but if it weren't for the Godfather of Hip House,, Fast Eddie and DJ Sundance there would be no Hip House! While everyone else in the country kept crapping on Chicago rap and their artists, we forged the genre as an off shoot to the House music we created and Fast Eddie was the pioneer of this around 1982-1984! After all of these years, Chicago still gets no respect for it's input in rap or the genre Chicago created, Hip House also using the same House music Chicago also created!

[@Shades-of-76]

Lifelong house head and devotee from UK here. This era was a bit before my time so really interesting comment. I would have thought that was the case as well. I imagine folks such as Tyree, Rocky Jones, DJ Int, WBMX, Mike Dunn might have played a part also? I really like some hip-house records but a fair few don’t do anything for me. I know he was a bit later but I loved Bernard Badie’s take on it. Big love and respect to Chicago ❤

[@TheLobMob]

No one is going to toot the Chicago horn *BUT* Chicagoans… so you *HAVE* to do it!!! Let the truth be known… btw, “Move Your Body” was produced by Adonis, NOT MARSHALL… Marshall is a thief.

[@Durermac]

True. It's such a shame that there are some people that believe House or Dance Music is created by and only for gay people.

Lifelong house head from day one..alot of people outside of Chitown don't know it started there...im from the DC area I know it came from Chicago at "The Warehouse" Frankie Knuckes...Move Your Body was the 1st one I heard...I got into deep house because of a duo in DC, Deep Dish and my journey never ended to this day....house music is a vibe, it's a feeling like no other genre...you can vibe to alot of music, but house is a vibe...there is a difference

A great album but poor mastering. Every copy I had played low.

[@juniorp726]

Great moment in my time.

[@lukmigindnuforhelved]

"Straight out the jungle" was my first rap album. Bought it used from another kid. I was like 13 yo. I still think it is one of the greatest rap / hip hop albums of all time. It is so raw, funny and filled with pure joy and creativity.

[@gezblair]

Not sure it was my first, but must be in the first five. Remembering reading the sleeve notes to death

[@djdennishouseton]

What was that last song at the end of the video at 11:40

Amazing to know the record label did not even include what turned out to be the biggest track. I still know the words off by heart.

Hip House! Amazing music, raw fusion of the day. Who remembers Ragga House? Barely got out of the blocks! But Daddy Freddy made a great track and they DID try! 😅

[@SoopChannelZero]

Soo good. Thanks.

[@jaimegarcia7180]

Im sorry but not enough credit was given to Todd Terry. While he did sample the violins from Marshall Jefferson (from a cassette-I worked for Todd for a good 6 yrs helping to run his labels) , the sonics of those 2 records he did Party People & Can You Party & how he put them all together was the driving force of Ill House You. He basically used the tools that the hip hop producers in NYC were using (Marley Marls setup) & gave house music an entire different character. While I totally have love and respect for the Chicago guys, if u listen to all those early house joints , they were very smooth & clean. They didn’t have that grit that Todd injected in his productions. The rap flow & the way “Can you party” was edited around the raps became an absolute perfect Hip House record. Truly the greatest Hip House record ever made! 🙌🏼👏🏼🔊🔥

[@antlarockofficial]

F#$&ing right?! I'm like yo where is the love for Todd

In the words of DJ Khaled! “Another one” Love the JB’s and this track was my first introduction to the group. Love your channel and all of your great content. Salute!

[@TimWrightDJ]

I wouldn't say Jungle Brothers "I'll House You" is ONE of the most important songs in hip-house history. I'd argue that it is THE most important song in hip-house history. As a fan of both, and I did a dissertation at uni on the evolution of disco/funk to house, hip-hop and house always stemmed from the same thing but took a different approach. It probably explains why I loved house music and hip-hop through my teen years. I was about 14 when the re-release/remixed version of I'll House you was peaking in 1998 and, as a young, aspiring DJ, it was my introduction to hip-house. Hip-house definitely changed over the next few years but, without JBs, it wouldn't have even been a thing. Also, my first ever concert I went to was Beastie Boys in Manchester in 1997 or 1998, and the Jungle Brothers were the warm up act. At the time, I was genuinely more excited about seeing them than the Beasties. I can't say I'd feel the same now, but I'd still be pumped about the JBs.
