:: Late 90s Hip Hop Videos - Queens ::

So last week I posted all the dope videos I could remember from the golden era of hip-hop. I focused on Brooklyn first, now its time for Q-Boro... Check the previous post for a reminder.

This is my top 3 all time favorite album from this era.. just my opinion so if you dont agree, kiss my ass.
Mobb Deep - Give up the goods

...and this is my favorite album from this era... dont think many would disagree.. arguably one of the top 5 best hip-hop albums ever made. "To my peoples throughout Queens, God bless ya life.."
Nasty Nas - The World is Yours Remix (also my favorite video from him..whoo!! the pearl bubble Lex son! If you remember, this is the remix that Jay-Z sampled for Dead Presidents.. pay homage!)

Many people forget Kool G Rap was from Corona.. G Rap was just as good as painting stories, plots etc as Slick Rick and Biggie.

...speaking of Corona.. this is probably the hardest video in Hip-Hop ever to get airplay..too bad it was pulled a few days after...
Beatnuts - Reign of the Tec... what more can you ask for? Nines, Tecs, triple beams, bodega robbery, car crash and someones mom tied up in the corner.. awesome. Peep the Sadat-X cameo too.

This was probably one of the most slept on albums but almost every song was a banger.. think he's an ANR for DefJam now.
Mic Geronimo - Shits Real... Flushing stand up! (oh peep Irv Gotti in this video, about 50lbs lighter)

Keeping with Flushing... The Legendary Main Source.. Looking at the Front Door. Love this high hat sample...

WHOOOOOO!! im hyped I found this.. God Bless YouTube.... love this song...
Royal Flush - Iced Down Medallions.. ft CNN.. ("..laying on 45th and Colden, selling drugs till the morning...Queens Stallion")

This was the response to Dogg Pounds "NY NY" song...
Tradegy, Mobb Deep, Capone N Noreaga - LA,LA

That song made me think of this song..
Capone and Noreaga - T.O.N.Y.

DOOOOPE album.. makes me act ignorant fo sho... LeFrak lick two shots!!!
N.O.R.E. - Super Thug (first time i heard of Neptunes as a collaboration, Rump Shaker was Pharrell only i think)

LeFrak also spit out Akinyele.. most of you girls know him for "Put it in my mouth" but this is his real shit..
The Bomb

This next group almost brings a tear to my eye... we spent soooo many nights driving around, smoking, and drinking to this tape.. i think i had to buy it 3 times because it kept popping on me... RIP Freaky Tah..............

This is for Henry... how many of you know ja-rule before he went solo? CMC.... Another Irv Gotta cameo..
Cash Money Click - Get tha Fortune and 4 My Click... Gotta post both..


Another top 5 album.. I dont need to say what I think of this group.. legendary..
A Tribe Called Quest - Scenario

For the party people... talk about longevity.. 22yrs and still crushin... Radio was actually my first tape my mom ever bought me.
LL Cool J - Loungin ("Its a Queens thang...")

Just because I want to... (lets keep the rope chains to the 80s.. you idiots bringing them back is just corny) LL Cool J - Old school styleeee

Everyone knows these guys... Hollis!! RIP JMJ

Before he was Khadafi he was the Intelligent Hoodlum.. this might be earlier in this era.. but worth posting..
Grand Groove Remix


There are obviously more that im forgetting but I will update this post tomorrow or during the week. If you can think of any let me know.. I also didnt lump Long Island in there but maybe I will later... Peace... let me know what you think..
