Yes but you also have to remember that this jam was out before inspector gadget animation came out

What a genius. I will always listen to his music. This is music with love, and from the heart. You know what l" m talking about.

[@jayswain1972]

The first Real 100% Hip Hop tune that kick started the golden age. Just unfucking brilliant and awe inspiring to those that heard it. This changed a lot of kids in their early teens like me at the time. Blew everything out of the water. So...this track is beyond critical analysis. It's just dope!

[@GuyRWood]

I literally could not agree more. One of the first vinyl singles I bought as a kid 😎.

[@nonstophead]

Yeah totally , I heard this like most of the hip hop at the time from the early Electro albums also Dougy Fresh on his Electro debut the original human beatbox I think 😁

[@ashley_engle]

Even better than sliced bread. This beat always takes me back to when things were just good and simple 💕 thank God for recordings

[@robertcarlton1451]

I cannot go one day without jamming to my favorite song!!!

[@johnnyjohnson1326]

My first concert! My dad got me tickets for my 16th birthday and drove me to the Pensacola Civic Center. He had no idea who Dougie Fresh and Slick Rick were. The look on his face was hilarious because there was very few white guys. Blacks, Samoans and a few whites. Freestyle was there too! What an amazing experience! Nobody cared about skin color. We were all there for the music. Better days! My kids love Freestyle, but aren't really into Dougie Fresh. One of my fondest memories for sure!

[@rickwestman1342]

When rappers actually rap and didn’t curse..with great beats and story telling ..Old school rap

[@MusicLoverPearson]

AMEN You ain't lying

[@dawatcherz]

the scratching and the human beatboxing are essential in it, we don't see that in hiphop anymore... i also miss the breakdancing and the grafitti
