People have a lot of revisionist history when it comes to Mase. Or are too young to remember. People act like Jay was a platinum artist from the jump. Reasonable Doubt is a classic. But it actually took 8 years to become a platinum album. Hov didn’t reach the next level until Hard Knock Life in 98. 97 was Mase’s year. 96 was obviously still Big and Pac. But in 97 Mase was outselling everyone.

[@willsalter8113]

This was an excellent video and he really summarized it perfectly. As an 40 year old Hip Hop head who lived through that era this brought back many fond memories. I Will add this though, Jay always had his eye on the throne. When he released the single The City Is Mine in Feb 98 and he said “you held down long let me take those reins/and just like your spirit the commission remains” “I’m the vocal point like Biggie in his prime/but on the low though, the city is mine”. Hov caught major backlash because cats felt that Biggie (R.I.P) hadn’t been deceased long enough for someone to be talking like that. That’s why on Ether Nas said “first Biggie’s man but then you nerve to say that you’re better Big/dick sucking lips why don’t you let the late great veteran live”. Cats always felt someway about Jay making it no secret that he wanted the King Of Ny title so shortly after Big passed.

[@samg2590]

I disagree with those ppl because b.i.g & Jay was actually COOL, so who else would he pass the throne to?

Jay from the intro on Vol.1 just shits on industry rappers and how broke they are, "yo don't listen to rappers, they're dying to floss" is such a cold bar, it's a running theme in the album. we forget he came in at 26, he's literally the blueprint of grown man raps, the perspective, the replay value on his albums is so undeniable, 90% of his catalogue aged gracefully. in a time where rap was a young man's game filled w/ perspective of 21-year-olds

This is a good video. But it’s missing a lot of the music. There are another 5 or so songs that are part of this beef. It went on right up until Mase retired. And it got greeeasy. For example, Mase and Funk Flex had another song on Double Up as a direct response to “Ride or Die” where Mase flat out says “all them niggas wanna ride with you..gone die with you or lie cripple” And Mase telling hov “you ain’t dissing me until you say my name” before Ride Or Die (which is why Hov says “setting myself apart from rappers who use other rappers names so other mfers can watch them” on that song.

Would have been interesting to see the rap landscape had Mase stayed around. Harlem World was my 1st rap album and that album still hits today …”Looking at me” is🔥🔥

That cover of the “Harlem world” album brings back some nostalgia. Me and my brother copping it for Kmart back in the day.

[@funkdoc1491]

Yes, this was incredible. This takes me back to the 90s and all of this and that was going on, in front of people and behind the scenes. Now I'm not sure if you touched on this one or not, but do you remember when the Wu had beef with the Puffster?

I'm disappointed that Jay doesn't like his Sunshine record. Back in my early teens (it was the 90s in a small city in WV called Clarksburg), a former radio DJ used to hold dances twice a month at the local YMCA for 6th to 12th graders. Anyway, whenever the DJ played Sunshine by Jay-Z featuring Foxy Brown,, (and his feature on Foxy Brown's song I'll Be) everybody went crazy on the dance floor over that song, like it was the greatest song we ever heard. Every single on Ma$e's Harlem World got love at our dances too. But still, Sunshine was the jam.

[@JayFingers]

I’m with you. I’ve always loved “Sunshine,” that song used to get the club hype. 😆 The video was a little nervous 🤣🤣 but that Hype Williams experimenting so you gotta at least respect it.

[@xaviersmith4531]

Yeah they are going crazy! Sunshine is fire!!!!
