[@thunderheads4103]

I remember watching Biker Boyz back when it came out and i liked it. I liked the glam it shows with the women and the attention. I wanted to ride motorcycles afterwards and i watched a few movies about riding, i watched the Isle Of Man, i watched MotoGP, Endurance Motorcycle racing for 8 hours or more per race, i watched top fuel drag race, i watched street racing. I watched enduro and cross country and world riding. When i got my wheels, i had all but forgotten this movie and amazing song. What i learned to appreciate, what i learned that was not for me, was the things in Biker Boyz. I learned the sad peacefulness of your 4 cylinders buzzing underneath you at 5,000rpm, cruising and just minding your own business. I learned to love the solitude it bought and the smiles i found in unexpected places. I learned to love the heat of the road, when the sun cooks your leathers at over 100°F and tje heat of the exhaust climbing up you pant legs from the egine fan. I love the feeling of the frame heat from the engine roasti g your boots, the pain from being on the bars and the way the bike wants to throw you off at over 140mph. I learned to love it, hate it. I learned motorcycles, how they can change your attitude and demeanor. How motorcycles can change your thinking, when to go, what you can do and knowing when to trust the tires underneath you when you are unsure of the road. I learned how when you ride you get confidence and start to take things harder and faster than before, how your confidence can make you feel good and how it can bite you in the ass. I learned how good it feels to be alive when you should have died and busted your head. I've had high sides, tank slappers and broke traction at 7,000rpm in 3rd gear and felt the bike slide behind me on the rear ture as i keep the throttle open. I've had low sides and oil slicks, went over the bars and scrambled away from vehichles as they may soon hit and kill you. Riding motorcycles taught me life and it started, unbeknownst to me, hearing Mos Def and watching this movie. Riding bikes man, this song is paramount to the attitude i have. Everyone rides different, so i ride alone and make sure others are in my mirrors and no one sees me. Motorcycles are a very personal and selfish relationship with a machine. It truly is who you are and when others see you, it's a personal anonymity becuase they see someone who they think is cool behind the helmet. As one of the grestest sporting champions, Ayrton Senna said "the helmet hides emotions that cannot be seen." So when you see a biker, know that you never really see them. Even if it's for fame.

Tremendous perspective you just shared. Watched that movie last night and although it's age was showing, it hit me in a few spots. It got my little bit of attention and gained more throughout. I turned the movie on literally as a joke because we couldn't find anything to watch. This song opened up the movie and immediately I found this song that I haven't heard I'm sooooooooo long. I almost completely forgot about this song I feel like. I loved reading your comment. Felt like I was with you right there. Thanks. Be safe out there.

[@alirocksize]

ikr, he's like the most optimistic, positive rapper i've ever heard in my life. his raps are actually meaningful in way where sex, drugs and murderer is not incorporated. Not like i have a thing against that, but its good to have rap like this for a change :)

[@lilchinesekidchen]

Ali Shuber i think this song is more sombre than optimistic. he's saying these things with an ironic bent, claiming what they say about California is a lie. I mean, he mentions Compton and Watts, which are some of the most dangerous and poor neighborhoods in LA. That's not to say the people living there are "bad," he's celebrating the people who live there, but he's making it clear that the conditions they're living under are depressing.

[@alirocksize]

austin chen mos diffidently (see what i did there) touches base upon issues occurring, well, everywhere/ but i was talking about his tone and the particular instrumentals he uses in his music. it is very bright and positive. it gives people hope for positive music in the future, rather than the tone being aggressive and dark. i love that type of music, but a little positive energy is always good. i was not specifically talking about his lyrical content. but even that, his approach in dealing with issues such as poverty and labour is very subtle and peaceful.

Joshman5581 my favorite movie of all time

[@jerrenlee8048]

Such a great movie I remember seeing this in the theaters with my father and my brother biker boyz was an instant classic so good they couldn’t make another

[@nancylowery945]

Lol Josh!!!

[@tayturner1195]

I'm 14 and I LOVE that movie. I can tell what happens on every second

[@ekrembalaban5400]

For real my mans!

[@Papi.Pharaoh]

The moment I heard this song playing in the background of Biker Boyz, I was hooked by this song so instantly. It’s so mesmerizing and hypnotizing. Each time I listen to this song I get goosebumps, and it takes me to another place.

[@davidtindell7049]

This is such an iconic song. It takes me back to my younger days when I first got my bike and would dream of going to meets like in the movie. In lower AL. this didn't exist. I make it a point to watch this movie at least once a year. Burn rubber, not your soul!

[@anthonymcfadden5086]

Unfortunately not. Just moved to AL from DC. Wish the bike meets were prevalent down here like they are back home.

“Kalifornia knows how to whisper in your ear and tell you you’re a star....” That’s actual facts, y’all.

[@vasilimaksim]

The state of euphoria that this song puts me in is unmatched. Almost 21 years later and this song aged like a fine wine. Well done, Yasiin Bey.

[@vincentwashington4106]

You're a star...keep on shinin'

[@jayroc894]

God bless my older brother who raised me with this type of music, i'm 23 years old and absolutely hate the new school bull ish.

This song is literally one of the only reason I like Biker Boyz lol

[@rell_tv432]

I feel like getting on my motorcycle and riding all night to this song

[@zacharyboles8511]

The opening scene of biker boyz with this playing is what made me get into sport bikes. Proud owner of a 02 cbr600 f4i. 05cbr1000rr 03 600rr and a 2018 grom. Keep the shiny side up and rubber side down fellas.

[@Puzzles32]

[@ekrembalaban5400]

Always came back here to remember the good old days, when i used to watch the biker boyz for the First time in TV. After that i used to go to a friend, who had a Computer so that we could listen to that song .. Ah just the simple days... When i listen to this song it always takes me back to my 12 year old self - Miss those days really.

[@ecll712]

Upon listening to this, I get the urge to do a wheelie on my motorcycle.
