ProfessU-Kool Moe Dee: "Infrastructure & Capitalism "

[@alaza61]

This is an BRILLIANT breakdown from a figure who remembers the development of hip-hop's foundation, and should be heard by EVERYONE.

[@ronaldvaughn7087]

Not Only Is Brother Kool Moe Dee The World's Greatest & Most Talented Rapper, But An Extremely Positive And Intelligent Human Being, Very Sincerely, 😃 God Bless Brother Kool Moe Dee Always 😀🙏

[@mele9131]

Wow. Masterclass on Hip Hop History and Capitalism. Mo Dee Needs to be teaching. I'd sign up immediately.

[@darrickross1419]

Kool Mo Dee is my hero.

[@MPS2627]

Lawd have mercy, I can not believe I just ran into this. He has to be the only one who is really speaking. Especially ole school rappers who saw the change.. Powerful....

[@Max547]

One of the best video's ever done.

[@keithcredle2190]

Moe DEE , WE REALLY LOVE YOU, AND THANKS FOR YOUR CONTRIBUTION TO HIP HOP NATION

[@TRUMaximus]

There just has to be more discussions like this more often...though its already going down, its best to bring pioneers of all 4 elements(i mean real pioneers such as these heroes right here) along with Bambataa and the Zulu Nation. Not sure if they had such a thing go down in the Zulu anniversary this year but we gotta find the funds to pay these gentlemen along with Women who also set a great example behind the movement as well to speak about where the culture was, where it is now & what we can do for the future........Hope it goes down. Peace from Puerto Rico!!!(we too need this too check brothas and sistas on Reggaeton, Salsa and other genres of music) Peace

[@victorramos287]

Moe Dee is ones of the best all time

[@TheDopestEthiopian1]

What is truly sad is that this video has only 1.511 views. What is being done to us black people is being done purposely.

[@pharaohtheblackgod3425]

First rapper ever with a four year college degree!!! Kool Moe Dee! 👌

[@keithcredle2190]

THANKS FOR REALLY RECOGNIZING THE REAL EDUCATION OF THE ORIGINAL RACE

[@onceagain6184]

WRONG!

[@abduljalil7623]

Chuck D too and Young MC, Chubb Rock "DROPPED OUT OF..............MEDICAL SCHOOL" to become a Rapper.

[@CrowdPleeza]

I think the conscious rap of the late 80's to early 90's period declined when it crossed over to the mainstream. This crossover happened through Arrested Development and to a lesser extent Public Enemy. PE and AD getting lots of MTV exposure and doing Lollapalooza concerts meant they had mainstream(white) acceptance. Once Afrocentric rap crossed over it lost some of it's edge. Afrocentric/conscious rap works better when it's not mainstream,but you can't always control how popular a particular artist and their music will become.

This needs 1 million + views

[@Excalibur1580]

Well said Kool Moe Dee! You da man!

[@theconciseguidetohip-hopmu8349]

Kool Moe Dee is one of the MCs featured in the new book - *"The Concise Guide to Hip-Hop Music"* Check that book out if you're into real hip-hop, they drop a ton of knowledge in there.

[@entertainingsportshighligh7525]

@ 7:09.......... Kool Moe Dee basically said - "BIGGIE started the Gangster Rap kind of Music in NYC" !!!! Thats not true . Actually it was a Hardcore Rap Group called - (ONYX) who were the 1st NYC Rappers who started Rappin about Gangster Shit . CURSING, GUNS, KILLING, SHOOTING, HATING POLICE, BITCHES & HOES were all said in their first album called - (BACDAFUCUP) in 1993, Before BIGGIE

[@SLPERIONTV]

but who made it Popular though???

[@marcuslouissaint5001]

NOT TRUE... wayy before gangsta rap... We already created HARDCORE RAP...which was pioneered by run dmc

[@BrickCity_101]

Kool Moe Dee just proved his point....you did exactly what he said the infrastructure normally does with Hip Hop ....you took one small portion of what he was saying and added false narrative......THATS NOT WHAT HE WAS SAYING!!! .....He said BIGS first album was the only album that "mirrored " The Chronic" ....so they use that as a pattern to create more of that album type of music concept.....(so on and so fourth) .......PLEASE PAY ATTENTION!!

[@erikawright8134]

​@@marcuslouissaint5001Run DMC was nowhere near hardcore rap. They didn't rap about selling dope, sticking people up or effing different girls. I'm not sure who started it first on the East Coast but it sure wasn't them.

[@onceagain6184]

"They " didn't label it gangsta rap. The west coast artist called it gangsta rap.

[@higglyjuff]

Wow, this is a lot of information that I wanted for my research. I'm seriously looking into how different cultures and different places affected Hip Hop, and corporations never came into my mind for the early rap scene as one of those groups. I mean, we all know how corporations like their control, so I don't know how it didn't occur to me that it started early with rap.

[@crownejewell]

Well put kool moe D he totally broke it down a 2 year old should be able to understand this

[@williamfields3524]

This brother is spot on.

[@ValJonesDaO]

One lone fool...who had the truth slapped in his face and he couldn't take it. SMH Back to what matters. TEACH MO DEE!!!

[@DjBobbySkillz]

I WISH HE COULD COME HERE TO CHICAGO AND SPEAK AT THE SCHOOLS BECAUSE THEY HAVE NO CLUE ABOUT WHAT'S REALLY GOING ON!

[@mareciafrett-blyden7698]

Kool moe Dee is deep never no he had this knowledge.

[@BrickCity_101]

WHAT ...MOE DEE HAD THIS TYPE KNOWLEDGE FROM DAY ONE.........HIS SECOND ALBUM WAS CALLED KNOWLEDGE IS KING

[@1suaveguy]

this video doesn't have any views because BET (who use to play Kool Moe Dee) won't post or share this, no major hip hop radio stations (who have Hip Hop legends working for them) will post this or tweet it, russell simmons (who is funding the WORLDSTARHIPHOP movie), diddy, all these big name black people in music won't share or post this video because he's calling them out. Until we start calling these people out and stop worrying about being perceived as "haters", nothing will change. we are just peons and cattle to these people, our voices don't matter. until a key player bucks the system, nothing will change.

[@kingmellowmankingmellow1185]

It can change if WE change.

Publicity of NWA being investigated by the FBI was happening. Gangster rap became big from there.

[@VanteStyle]

Enough talk DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT!!! He has a platform. He can probably get Dr Dre on the phone, Dre could get Jay on the phone, Jay could get Wayne on the phone AND MAKE A CHANGE! LIKE IT OR NOT, MUSIC IS THE MOST INFLUENTIAL PIECE OF OUR CHILDREN'S MIND SET. What they're fed has a tremendous affect on behavior, education, and subsequently the success or impending doom of black America.

[@abrahampalmer1153]

amazing video I agree 100% gangsta rap was negative but I look at it both ways 90s gangsta rap hardcore rappers was really lyrical and witty but very one sided at the same time I agree. but today so Called street rappers are not lyrical at all most of them most of them are trapper rappers that mumble though music. I agree hip hop should stayed in the roots of it all and the sound as well. even today's production in 2010s era is very digital and artificial sounded. 80s/90s hip hop was analog warmth raw feeling that feels right and easy to listen to in your ears. that's why I stick to the classics that's it I don't go further than that.

[@j-the-isso2087]

Let's call a Spade a Spade. Moe Dee was probably greatest lyricist of all time, and he knows it. If the black community listened to rappers like him it would be productive and united. There is no point having talent if its not used positively, thats why Biggie was one the worst lyricist ever. Moe Dee needs to stop putting down his work - Funke Wisdom was years ahead of its time

[@reverenddonaldhightower3176]

brilliant observation.

[@abrahampalmer1153]

j- the-isso you absolutely right I agree biggie had so much talent but his lyrical content was very negative.

[@mrduster1981]

More victim mentality crap. We didn't have advisors, we didn't know about taxes, etc... How can you call yourselves men and not owe up to your responsibilities? I thought you were an intelligent rapper?
