Q Tip is so sloppy in that, I love it.

Re: I found the Too Many Rappers video!
 

Thanks for sharing that. There should be a Beastie Boys channel devoted solely to live performances on YouTube. Perhaps there is one I am forgetting...

Re: I found the Too Many Rappers video!
 

Yep,that's awesome! Thank You for that wonderful evening! I'm crying...
RIP MCA!

Re: I found the Too Many Rappers video!
 

I heard Tip was pretty much wrecked when he made the original recording, going off the dome, and that explains why he can't remember the lyrics, and is just bullshit freestlying at Lollapalooza.

Re: I found the Too Many Rappers video!
 

Thanks but this is the first Tibetan Freedom Concert.

Re: I found the Too Many Rappers video!
 

Lalapalooza = Tibetan Freedom Concert

I'm partial to the St. Louis performance:

There is a higher quality recording of it out there somewhere.

Check out this dudes channel though: has tons of bootlegs, that you would've had to swap vhs' back in the day to get. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCyR...TyPtMhFZpVbQ9Q

also, here is a steady cam shot of Too Many Rappers live from Alfredo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uH08ylBq-EI

Re: I found the Too Many Rappers video!
 

TFC and Lalapalooza are not equal.

Two different festivals.

Re: I found the Too Many Rappers video!
 

I know, I was pointing out how someone was talking about lalapaloza and responded with tfc. Nevermind, don't drink and post.

Re: I found the Too Many Rappers video!
 

It's like that clip where people keep on labeling it as beastie boys at wood stock. Hogan Claiming to be at summer slam 92. All of Alex jones and people mistaking a screen shot of too many rappers as seeing the whole music video. People don't know wha there talking about.

Re: I found the Too Many Rappers video!
 

Haha okay. Yeah drinking and posting goes bad

Re: I found the Too Many Rappers video!
 

Yeah I got the two mixed up. It was drink related too - not enough coffee yesterday morning!

Re: I found the Too Many Rappers video!
 

Coffee is critical for cognitive functioning in the 21st Century.

Re: I found the Too Many Rappers video!
 

i cried too when i first saw it. Initial reaction.

Re: I found the Too Many Rappers video!
 

who's the cut throat crack dealin wannabe gangsta again???
really beasties!?! come on... you're the best, but then that??? there's better than that and you should know..!!!
i mean don't get me wrong, i'm probably one of the too many.. if you can even call my ish rapping, but i don't subscribe to that one song in the beasties repatroire (sp), and that just never happens... wtf chuck

maybe nas consumates the meaning of too many rappers as he would be one.. did the beasties just play him like that so he and people learn eventually, or was it really a song they wanted to appeal to the dirty south ish... keep hip hop clean my friends...

Re: I found the Too Many Rappers video!
 

What the chuff are you babbling on about?

Re: I found the Too Many Rappers video!
 

haha really you need to get some glasses and a hearing aid..!

Re: I found the Too Many Rappers video!
 

but i totally agree, there are too many rappers and not enough emcees..
kudos to the boys anyway.. i'll love them forever!

Re: I found the Too Many Rappers video!
 

Deal. But only If you match me and get yourself a Dictionary and some sort of A rudimentary education (y)

Re: I found the Too Many Rappers video!
 

get a rudimentary education?
really?
i won't leave ya behind, but..
i guess the slowest kid sets the standard these days...
doped up and dumbed down
not a good place for kids
not allowed to think outside the box..
what's there not to understand?
i don't think you've been paying attention..
i may only have 2 years of college, but i know bs when i see it.
that's what's wrong with the country... we're setting examples now like taht?
you have to be a cutthroat, crack dealing, thug to make it or be an emcee these days?
i don't know what you're trying to say, all i'm saying is that it's not so cool to me.

Re: I found the Too Many Rappers video!
 

Well that's me told then.

Re: I found the Too Many Rappers video!
 

This is an awesome find! Sick research skills Eoin MCL!

If anyone has a copy of this (mp4, avi, whatever) or a link to a place where I can download it, I'd be much obliged. I have a feeling it's gonna get yanked down from various YouTube channels as they are uncovered. Could be wrong, but I'd rather be safe than sorry. PM me if you want to be that gracious human being!

Also, just as a side note, I think it's really just.... I dunno, interesting how Yauch's first verse changed between the video version (or pre-album release version I guess) and the version that ultimately appeared on HSCP2. He makes a reference to never dying on the video version, but that verse was cut by the time the album came out.

I've been listening to the album version a lot lately and I forgot about that original verse. It was nice to hear him say it again. Living on and never dying through his music.

Re: I found the Too Many Rappers video!
 

damn... did i say i didn't like a beasties song? what? never thought i'd see the day i ever thought a bad thought about them..
i mean, they've saved my and manys life so many times...

anyway,
word up
1 for eric, 0 for camo

... you're still good
i can't say the same for me though...

Re: I found the Too Many Rappers video!
 

Ummmm no. You've didn't really acknowledge what I said. You've gone and built yourself up there. I'm gonna call it an ERIC-SHUN.

Re: I found the Too Many Rappers video!
 

oh for fuccccckckckcs sakes buddy...
let it go

Re: I found the Too Many Rappers video!
 

Do tell.

Re: I found the Too Many Rappers video!
 

Thanks so much for sharing! It was great to see them all together again, and it looks like they had fun making it. I wonder what was running through Nas' head during filming haha! (y)

Re: I found the Too Many Rappers video!
 

The fuck just happened in here.

Re: I found the Too Many Rappers video!
 

I'm still trying to figure it out.

Re: I found the Too Many Rappers video!
 

The album version says "Like a nexus 6 coming home to roost" so it's actually about dying. I thought that was super brave, fucking deep and a really poetic way for him to commit that idea to wax.
