    No, you play the first verse of the OG and then you cut in Kim's verse like boom.

    Peace to the dude who droppec "Is that your bitch" and drag-on in this thread.

    Haha. That's exactly what you do. Is that in the hip-hop DJ handbook or something? Dudes do that in Chicago all the time.

    Nevermind the Tunnel...I need to hear this through a stadium sound system. So massive.

    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^




    best parts:

    - ed lover doing eric b
    - missy getting cozy on the dancefloor
    - benjamins being played multiple times in an 8 minute span (when was it not in '97)
    - watching a club dj talk on the mic - do not see that anymore. he did it well.


    other obvious/not so obvious east coast '96 - '01 songs not mentioned so far that still go over well with the above 25 crowd:

    dmx - get at me dog

    black rob - whoa

    ruff rhyders anthem

    lox - money, power, respect

    big pun - not a player (og version)

    nore - banned from tv

    lil kim - big momma thing

    foxy - get you home tonight

    jay-z - who you wit

    biggie & lil kim- another

    jadakiss - we gonna make it

    I feel lucky I lived in NY state during the late 90s, mix tapes where insane during those times, you would see 5 new tapes a week. My boy had the bootlegs 5 bucks a piece or 5 for twenty.

    I probably still have a ton in storage up there.

  • "WHOA" is the one in this thread. Phonics would skraight shock 'em with that one.

    And Rey, thanks for posting that Drag-On--love that video!

    Some of these are technically not "TUNNEL TYPE RAP" but more like "CLUB SPEED TYPE RAP"







  • OBV.

    Scary as F*ck to be in the Tunnel when this shit came on. Riots, cats mating with dogs, people in wheelchairs beating up bouncers. Madness.

    LMAO

    This answer pretty much sums up the "what did I miss from that era" part of the question.

    Most strutters = way too shook to actually be at the Tunnel for Mecca, so they are trying to live it through the safety of the internet a decade later!

    I was all of 14 in 1998, but in my internet aided mind-tunnnel, this is a major hit:



  • NORE and his Murder Unit tore the Tunnel the F*ck up. Breaking bouncers arms and shit. All sorts of wildness. One of the most crazed scenes I've ever witnessed.

    oh i forgot mystikal

    2000 i got quite the run out of this one he has a great voice

    both are all time classics to me. Didn't drop "Superthug" but played "Ante Up", out of "made you look" last night. Also flipside but that's what 2003?

    The remix was not big in the bay. HOT DAMN HOE HERE WE GO AGAIN

    The mention of the "tunnel" was mad tongue-in-cheek but yeah I was shook for not taking a plane to New York and not trying to sneak in as a teenaged butterball.



    Shouldn't you be trying to re-live the Loft 30+ years on the Milliondollardisco forum or some shit?

    Oh Mary! Dont be a mess, what a show. Shout outs to Naudio Feliz and Joe Sheridan wherever they may be. Real(ly) Messy Headz Know the Deal.

  • I mean this is a pleasant way, but looks like I pretty much have a lot of the bangers.

    Who's holding onto the white label/freestyle joints though?
