Yo, look, y'all! Look what
they doing over there!

:05:07
Come on!

[Men Rapping Indistinctly]
:05:14
#The mic almost dropped
but I catch quick #

:05:17
#And from that point
we get hectic #

:05:19
# Now, I score the ladies,
I score the boys #

:05:22
# I am the one and only
art of noise #

:05:24
#What up, hear, hear? #
:05:27

# Dana Dane #
:05:31
Girl, up here!
:05:34
#When out of nowhere
dropped this fiendish fiend #

:05:37
# I want your shoes, your
jewels, man, everything #

:05:39
# Now in his hands,
a knife, a gun #

:05:42
# I'm thinking to myself #
:05:43
# Should I fight
or should I run? #

:05:45
# I see his tool, slapped him
up against the dome #

:05:47
#Would you
believe this fool #

:05:48
#Tried to rob me
with a comb? #

:05:51
#Yo, Rick, my, my, #
:05:54
# My mellow, my man #
:05:55
# Get on the mic
and rock this jam #

:05:57
#Well, I was on
the 41 bus #

:05:59
# Reading the news #
:06:00
# Here comes grandma #
:06:01
#And she steps
on my shoes #

:06:02
# I smile, although
I was quite disgusted #

:06:05
# I said "What's
the matter, granny #

:06:06
# Is your
blind ass dusted?" #

Sidney, Voice Over:
The day I saw Slick Rick,

:06:10
who went
by Ricky D back then,

:06:11
Dana Dane, and Doug E. Fresh
battle in the Bronx

:06:14
was the day I truly
met hip-hop.

:06:16
Little did I know
a year later

:06:18
Ricky D would would join
the Get Fresh Crew

:06:20
and record the hip-hop
classic The Show,

:06:22
and of course
the b-side La Di Da Di.

:06:24
Dana Dane would drop
a couple years later

:06:26
with his classic
Cinderfella.

:06:28
But little did I know
:06:30
how much hip-hop would be
a part of my life.

:06:32
[Beatboxing]
:06:38
Hip-hop was as young,
naive, confused,

:06:42
sometimes innocent,
:06:43
and sometimes
as mischievous as I was.

:06:47
And as I grew up...
:06:48
- Later, Dre.
- Later, Sid.

:06:50
Hip-hip grew with me,
:06:52
and along the way it took on
all my baggage...

:06:55
my dreams.
:06:57
I felt hip-hop,
:06:59
and hip-hop felt me.
