How good is Stand Together!!

[SuckerMC]

I seriously reckon that stand together has the bestrapping outta any beastie song.... not their best song, but MCA just shows how FU***NG good a rapper he truly is!!!

[Chicka B]

When I first got CYH and heard that song I was thinking "wow, this is ghetto" referring to the begginning noise you know where it sounds like a circus horn or something. :p Then I heard him rapping and I really got into the song and I was all like "wow". :D Yes, that's a real good song. (y)

[SuckerMC]

yeah the initial music is a total contrast to the rest of the song!!!

[SILVERBEASTIE]

I'm glad someone put this thread up...this song is not mentioned much because of the overwhemling like for So whatca want..but this song is right up there with one of the best they've done..but that's just my opinion.

Stand Together - "People Come together now"

This song is fucking good!!! I like it a little bit more when played live cause all of them sing together

[Skull]

its addicted, at 1st I didnt like the start but I then went into the song and holy smoke, MCA is just...... well words cannot say how great he is

[ragdoll_92]

I gotta say I love Stand Together. It's one of my favourites and so positive it always makes me smile. Cheers me up no end

I always felt that MCA was never the same after Stand Together.
It's like, what can Michaelangelo paint after The Creation that won't pale in comparison.

Well, this comparison is strong man
But its true in some parts....I agree that he raps so perfectly in this song. But say that he was never the same maybe is too much, dont ya think?

[Extra Cheese]

does MCA ever do this song solo in concert? the few shows that i've downloaded has all 3 of them sharing the rhymes when this song comes up. i wish MCA would do it solo like on the album.

It's a one-two punch w/Stand Together and Namaste.
Damn it even looks sweet typed.

[SuckerMC]

hey MCA has never lost his touch, DONT EVER SAY THAT!!! but i agree, stand together is his best rapping..... cept maybe in root down, he rocks in root down!!!

[icy manipulator]

it aint too shabby

[3stooges]

he really raps good on "a year and a day". and what's another word for pirate treasure well i say it's booty "professor booty" going after mc serch on that one. he's fantastic on those as well as stand together. those 3 stand out as his best for me. great rapper.

[Thundercracker]

ohhhellyeahhh!!

stand together rocks!
both yauch's rap and the funky instrumentals make this song so awesome.

[SuckerMC]

yeah, a year and a day rocks....... goood rappin!!! however, i reckon the music is too loud on the track and his voice is sorta drowned out...... but b-boy boullaibisse absolutely rocks!!!

The Horn is the best part man....Especially when it comes back in near the end.

i don't know if the horn at the end is from the same part that is in the beginning but i do know, alittle trivia here, it is a sample from the soundtrack of a movie called "hi mom" deniro's in it. one of deniro's first movies. it was funny cause i was watching the movie and i heard that part. it's always funny when you hear samples you didn't know where they were from and you're like "so and so sampled that!"

[Rich Cheney]

Thanks for that tibit there 3xstooge. Just added hi me to the netflix queue.
Always wondered where that was from.

[3stooges]

Thanks for that tibit there 3xstooge. Just added hi me to the netflix queue.

Hi Mom! it is called Hi Mom.

rap sample faq lists another sample for the song, i'm not sure if it is the one i'm talking about, the one at the begining, or what...
