She was born in the wrong decade. Should have been a 70’s or 80’s baby

[@dc3470]

[@jamesdavisjr6937]

This is skating ring music to me but if you want the old old school for skating do newcleus jam on it

[@AIiamIAmiwas]

Jam on Revenge is the one.

[@jamesdavisjr6937]

Whodini was the first concert i ever saw with fatboys and new edition my fav whodini song was friends

[@tyehodge4075]

Classic…… One Love is another jawn

[@arthuroliver1862]

GenXer here class of 85. If you want some oldschool hip hop try Schoolly D or some Busy B then you got your journey started to the old school

[@thekidd8705]

Friends is another classic by Whodini

[@lisae9958]

One of the BEST rap groups of the early 80s!! This song would sound so good in the club and we was jammin' hard!! So many great memories and I can still see everybody on the dance floor in my mind💃🕺💃🕺

[@silhouetteimage3976]

The whole group is named Whodini. Which consisted of Jalil, Ecstasy and DJ Dee.

[@Knick_Fury]

WHODINI was (left to right on album cover) the late great Ecstasy (who was the last rapper on this track), Jalil and the DJ who was not pictured, Grandmaster Dee. They were one of the biggest rap acts of the 80’s. Definitely worth a deeper dive.

[@fergusonh]

I Still play this to this day...

[@rhondaatkins1776]

Thank you for this! Early Hip Hop often gets ignored. People act like they forgot Whodini was the ish!!

[@EdwinRodriguez-n3t]

Rip..ecstacy..🙏🙏

[@erickford1624]

This was the theme song for Video Music Box. We aint have cable at the same time in the NYC boroughs. Video Jockey aka VJ Ralph McDaniels premiered all the latest music videos from 1983 until . Nas made a special for Video Music Box. I knew of Rap City and Yo MTV Raps due to kin folk with cable in SC GA and NJ. On Paramount You're Watching Video Music Box is a good watch. This song is 5 🎤🎤🎤🎤🎤🎶

[@greganderson1445]

Whodini is the name of the group. Jhalil and Ecstacy(I don't know his real name). The latter passed away not too long ago. I cried like I knew him personally because they made music during my junior high days through college! God bless ya'll.

[@user-nl9me3er7w]

As a former skater it was a "bop." The #1 "Bop" in Michigan for skaters was Planet Rock by African Bambaataa

[@grandgnd]

*Video Music Box theme song NYC *🎶"One Love, one love, you're luck just to have one love!!"🎶

[@jabbad2992]

This is real Black American Hip Hop the Genesis of it.

[@pamelamuhammad7616]

This was a different era than traditional Funk music which was around late 70' s. This is Hip hop 1984etc Just the name of the song refers to Funk

[@gymeni]

The stanky bass definitely is the foundation for the funk in this song.

[@1960317]

And it's on the one!

[@craigreed1638]

The definition of funk....when you hear a song and you scrunch up your face like you smell. something....that's funky. You've done this many times. I just went back and looked...you did it on this song😅😅😅

[@alvinyoungblood408]

The rap group Whodini are definitely hip-hop legends, with several hits in the 80's and 90's members Jalil, Ecstasy, and the DJ is Grand Master D make up the trio. You should definitely check out the songs, "One Love", "Friends", and "Funky Beat".

[@GinaGeeILuvu]

That beat is still hot and that was 1984! Whodini was the name of the rap group! I was totally vibing with you!😂❤❤

[@craigarandolph]

Atomic Dog by Parliament Funkadelics is the jam too

[@blackauntienokids]

I took the time WHEN THIS CAME OUT to record this off the radio and then replay the cassette sec by sec as I meticulously wrote down the lyrics. CLASSIC!!!

[@yol.2248]

Back when partying was beyond fun

[@CCTH2221-lp2zj]

As I close my eyes and go back to NYC 1984. The Zodiac, Funhouse, Latin Quarter, Rooftop, Underground and Union Square. This jam had every one of those clubs rocking🎼🔥

[@greganderson1445]

I was 12 and in the 8th grade. This was at the start of the 1984-85 school year!

[@slappyslapstick4045]

I was 13, youngster😂😂😂

[@malvindixon]

Bootsy Collins rubber band "I'd rather be with you" it's funk for yo soul.

[@smittybenzo4693]

That early Whodini production is from the UK. That New York British connection was 🔥🔥🔥!

[@patriciabrown5960]

Ashley, I bet you would tear a dance floor up cause you definitely have the moves while sitting. You go girl 😊

[@Fruit17-ip4vl]

I love this song! It is on my playlist! Great request and reaction as always from Ashley! She is on her way AR SQUAD! 😎Guess What? We are lit 🔥 over here! ❤😎Old school rap at its best!

Old school Whodini, great reaction.

🎧💯🔥🔥💐📚

[@janellestevens2316]

This was song that you could here a half block away from the club, and you're mad because you missed it. 😂😂 Stick around long enough you got your chance. This was a PARTY BANGER! I remember that the closer he got to 'One minute left' in the count down, you would just go harder and harder on the floor!! Ahhhh, such great memories! Aurora Lounge, Denver, CO, and all of the other cities that I partied to this song in!! 😎😎

[@onmysquare3536]

This was my joint as a kid

[@artdogg50]

I wore that cassette 😂 out when it dropped. Peace to Jalil and Grandmaster Dee! RIP Ecstasy and producer Larry Smith.

[@erinwilliams57]

Whodini is the reason why I started loving rap music as a kid, and my older sister and I went to a couple of their concerts. Life was definitely fun & more free back then.🔥🔥🔥

[@adublbeatz8656]

Ooooweee you're in my bag now!! Rap Music!! Jammin!! We use to walk through the hallways in school singing, " Ladies real pretty from city to city, but now we're getting down to the nitty gritty"...lol and that countdown made this song that much more FLY!!!

[@patricksmith6796]

One of my favorite hip hop songs, this song was a skating ring jam.

[@mightymick1972]

This has been my ringtone forever!!!

[@onmysquare3536]

Every time I hear this, I think of video music box

[@cynthiawatkins6115]

We were either on the skating rink floor cutting up or at the club doing the generator pop.

[@reshaud81]

One Love by Whodini is a must to listen to Ashley!

[@craigarandolph]

Oh my goodness gracious I’m almost sweating just listening to this jam , use to dance my butt off to this jam 🔥

[@Drew-q8e]

There was a rap contest in NY in the 80s, Whodini came in first place, UTFO came in second, and the Fat Boys came in third, but I would like to make a suggestion, check out Grandmaster Flash, you know what time it is

[@malvindixon]

Old school in the house you gotta do New Life song " Wish you were here".

[@KingKong-n5g]

thats the name of the group ashley 👑✡️🔱

[@DeadBird-wp9of]

Magic's Wand was their biggest hit - Freaks Come Out At Night (in the video you can see Sha-Roc - one of the first female Hip-Hop-Queens), just a minor hit for the group.

90's R&B women group, Gryl sampled this tune to their song, "Get Your Groove". You should react to that one, "Gryl - Get Your Groove"

[@jshizzle6866]

You know it’s Funk when it give you that Stank Face.😂😂😂

[@generaines6369]

One of my top 5 rap groups of all time. The most underrated crew in my opinion. Composed of Jalil, the late Ecstasy and DJ the green eye genie Grandmaster Dee. Check out "One Love", "Freaks Come Out at Night", "Magic's Wand", "Friends", "Smiling Faces", "Fugitive", "Funky Beat". They were a very early group as I remember their earliest hit "Magic's Wand" came out in late '82 if I remember correctly but they were more stylized as R&B Rap.

[@cla9085]
