I know. That was beautiful.

[M Dogg™]

Flava Flav before the white bitch!!!!!!!! 

[jeromechickenbone]

I like how diverse their styles are.  I can't even come close to choosing a favorite on this one.  And look at all the respect they show each other. 

[Minkaveli]

Rakim did a half freestyle.  Listen to "Its Been A Long Time".  KRS-One freestyles purely on both videos.  Sick videos though.  Props to both y'all.  Hip-hop needs a session like this.  Notice, 95% of these artists are east coast?

[Minkaveli]

A Special Ed sighting, lol.

[Mr. O]

the white boy in the first episode was funny...next to rakim...

anyway...i liked when pac was in yo hip hop mtv episode.

[On The Edge of Insanity]

Yeah, these are real dope, far more skills that most of this generation of rappers.

The "funny white guy" is MC Serch by the way.

[Minkaveli]

That beat was crazy.  Anyone got any more of these session??

[jeromechickenbone]

A Special Ed sighting, lol.

Yeah, not something you see everyday.  It pretty much sounds like he freestyled it though so he def held his own.

Serch has been responsible for some great things in hip hop, but he def looked like he had down syndrome or something on that vid.  It was kinda awkward but he did a decent job.

[Adam Donnelly]

Yeah I got this on tape from back in the day.
Classic shit

I miss MTV Raps
