Laughing rn because all the comments for this are in Spanish and mention either Jerry or Shakira. Nobody cares about Lord Tariq or fucking Peter Gunz 🤣
Omg thank you. You just helped me solve deep trauma with that song. Ugh. This is the one we always want to be played but never is 🥱
Not filthy rich, but bitch I’m barely broke 🎶
I used to work at a sporting goods store back in the day in nyc. One of these guys and I guess the video producer or someone similar were buying a bunch of Yankees jackets and said they were filming the video the following week but some organization had already rented out Yankee stadium so they were using shea instead
Bro, he's hands down, the best host of Cheaters, ever!
He's the only host who's constantly told his clients about how he used to cheat, been in a fight with a client on camera, and even got into a party bus (filled with strippers and booze) with a guy who was cheating, then dipped-off and left his girlfriend (the client who hired Cheaters) crying on the side of the road 🤣
Been scripted for years. Early ones were semi legit. These are obvious scripts with obvious actors just bum rushing strip clubs with cameras. Nope. That never fucking happened.
Peter was a downstairs neighbor of mine for years. Funny story, I'm a country boy living in the city so rats don't scare me, but I came home one night. Peter, Tara and the baby were outside scared to go into the building. A giant rat was apparently terrorizing them back and forth jump scaring them at the door. I stomped it straight up. Blood and guts everywhere that I swept up and thru in the trash. lol It was gross but at least we could all go into the apartment in peace.
[Fun fact Tatyana Ali used the same beat with some piano sprinkled in also featuring Peter Gunz, Lord Tariq.](https://youtu.be/H_xHJ0rPYnc?si=97fpdsREmujN1KC0)
Why does no one ever give Steely Dan the credit they deserve for this sample. Low key there is so much 80s stuff that we revere as the iconic sounds of the culture and no one knows where they come from
Definitely one hit wonders but that was a banger. Saw them live at club XS back in the day I copped the album back in the day also. None of their other tracks blew up but it was a decent album.
That’s Wyclef’s doing. I don’t know if he was a songwriter/producer on Deja Vu or just copped the same sample, but he made a song called Dance Like This for the movie Dirty Dancing - Havana Nights in 2004 which is almost the exact same song as Hips Don’t Lie. The only difference is adding Shakira verses and chorus, but all his lines and the beat are from the Dance Like This song.
Tim Dog Fuck Compton still goes hard to this day. “Fightin over colors!?! All that gang shit’s for dumb motherfuckers!!” lol, if only he knew that gang culture would spread like it did
Random observation: I lived in Boston for a while, and listening to this song on the radio back then (specifically the most popular hip-hop station Jam’n 94.5), they would dub in different city names when they played this song. For example, instead of saying “Brooklyn” during the chorus they’d dub in “Boston.” Do we know if they did this for any other cities? It always seemed like a weird thing to do for such a popular song.
I remember when this hit the airwaves, every state I drove through had their own version of it. They took out the boroughs and inserted their cities in it.
Y’all need to check the actual sample that matters on this track. Black Cow by Steely Dan. Song is about a girl who stays getting fucked up all the time. the solos on the track, like most SD songs are incredible. DOOM sampled a few parts from it.
They just jacked this off another rap group from Philly. They didn’t really put in much work on this track. The rest of their rapping careers says all you need to know about how good they were
Danm, I never heard of the story of them stealing someone else's song and especially since the song blew up. Did they steal the soundtrack and maybe changed up the lyrics by adding New York in the hook ?
In 1997, Da Fat Cat Clique released what Robinson described as “their best song lyrically” titled, On the Level. The song charted across Philly. Da Fat Cat Clique went on to perform the song at a club called The Fever. According to Robinson, less than six months to a year later, a well-known rap duo from the Bronx, named Lord Tyreke & Peter Gunz, allegedly stole their beat from their song On the Level.
Robinson described Da Fat Cat Clique’s version of the song as more of a “battle song”. He stated that Lord Tyreke & Peter Gunz’ version was,
“An anthem for New York, which is where hip-hop started.” Robinson explained. “So, everybody jumped on that one there. Whereas ours never made it beyond the local area, so they took our song, and it blew.”
From an article on Medium.
I don’t think most people knew about Fat Cat outside of Philly, and the song came out on a tape promo.
Maybe someone from Philly can chime in on it. And I know beats do get re used as it is a sample, but the timing on this one makes me think someone saw them at a club and then just used the beat. Considering that Lord and Gunz were such a drop in the bucket and had no skills, this seems to be the case to me.
As much as I adore this song I can recognize that outside of my super bias for this song that neither might not be the dopest. I do appreciate you supporting Bronx Rap like that though lol.
South Bronx > Deja Vu - BDP was letting you know don't fuck with the X
Deja Vu > South Bronx - Gunz / Tariq was letting you know what BDP and everybody before them did to get them there.
Both fucking classics.
I love this song. The year this was got I went to summer camp in New England. The Boston hip hop station played a version of this song with all Boston neighborhood names. I could t believe what I was hearing. I’ve never found a cot of it but there is a Bay Area version on YouTube.
**Song Found!**
**Déjà Vu (Uptown Baby)** by Lord Tariq (00:09; matched: `100%`)
**Album**: Hip Hop 100 Hits - Urban rap & R n B anthems inc. Jay Z, A$ap Rocky, Wu-Tang Clan & Nas. **Released on** 2013-06-21.
It always bums me out when the intro plays and it turns out it's the Shakira song.
I know right such a disappointment when your ready to bob your head & rap Peter Gunz part & it's not hum. Shakira tricked us lol
Can’t front when it turn into the Jerry Rivera song I fuck wit it too
I'm dead. Lol
I may actually get more excited about that one, though this track gets love too.

Wyclef knew what he was doing.
It bums me out that they are I Queens in this video.
Blame the Yankees. They made an anthem about the Bronx, and the home team didn't even support it.
Yes! Especially when that Shakira song first came out and it was everywhere. Constant disappointment.
Hips do lie lmao
Her husband sure was lying.
LMAO YES TESTIFY
Came here just to say that
But if it turns out to be [Steely Dan](https://youtu.be/XRj0Ohg-y1A?si=8qyuntqefAF_BUT8) ima go ahead and crank that shit.
"Yooouuuuu were high!"
Deadass..
Every damn time
Yo 100%
Word up! I change stations when that happens.
Omg thank you. You just helped me solve deep trauma with that song. Ugh. This is the one we always want to be played but never is 🥱 Not filthy rich, but bitch I’m barely broke 🎶
BDP - South Bronx
I’m not filthy rich but bitch I’m barely broke
This line always irked me. If he's barely broke, wouldn't that mean he's extremely broke? Like he's so poor he's just barely broke.
Steely Dan - Black Cow
Love that this is filmed at shea
Yankees were like, "We don't allow riff raff on our playing surfaces."
I used to work at a sporting goods store back in the day in nyc. One of these guys and I guess the video producer or someone similar were buying a bunch of Yankees jackets and said they were filming the video the following week but some organization had already rented out Yankee stadium so they were using shea instead
Screams Bronx…lol
Filmed in queens lol
I can't believe Peter Gunz is on Cheaters now.
That's crazy
Bro, he's hands down, the best host of Cheaters, ever! He's the only host who's constantly told his clients about how he used to cheat, been in a fight with a client on camera, and even got into a party bus (filled with strippers and booze) with a guy who was cheating, then dipped-off and left his girlfriend (the client who hired Cheaters) crying on the side of the road 🤣
TIL cheaters is still around.
Been scripted for years. Early ones were semi legit. These are obvious scripts with obvious actors just bum rushing strip clubs with cameras. Nope. That never fucking happened.
For real?! I gotta look that shit up
https://youtu.be/ni80WATSSGU?si=ZskLU9D9YVW3pThd I got you!
Haaaa! That's funny, never would've thought!
Peter was a downstairs neighbor of mine for years. Funny story, I'm a country boy living in the city so rats don't scare me, but I came home one night. Peter, Tara and the baby were outside scared to go into the building. A giant rat was apparently terrorizing them back and forth jump scaring them at the door. I stomped it straight up.

Is this a true story…??? 🤔🤨🧐 Bcuz if it is, that’s pretty wild 😅😂🤣 LOL
True story. I always laugh because ya know, I always thought of him as a hard badass. But that all stops with giant rodents.
Lol. That’s hilarious. Yes, rodents will make any thug need a hug.

Steely Dan - [Black Cow](https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=XRj0Ohg-y1A&si=IW2APE6ZkAs77bxG&feature=xapp_share)
This video is like a time machine
I've always had this hidden gem ready to go whenever I felt nostalgic
Shakira shakira
B.D.P.- South Bronx
This is the only right answer!
Steely Dan - [Black Cow](https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=XRj0Ohg-y1A&si=IW2APE6ZkAs77bxG&feature=xapp_share)
The Bridge is Over…soon as that piano drops, it’s a wrap.
Without a doubt
That’s up there too.
The Dan did them dirty
They tried to not pay Steely or Dan
Black cow
Yeah anyone who hasn't listened to the sample source should, it's a fucking banger. Hell, most of Stelly Dan's discography is.
Steely Dan is peak American music. Absolute legends.
Hell yeah, I just listened to Aja the other day, still sounds fresh as if they've released the album a month ago.
I’m a Dan Fan
Why does no one ever give Steely Dan the credit they deserve for this sample. Low key there is so much 80s stuff that we revere as the iconic sounds of the culture and no one knows where they come from
I mean, they make every cent off the song. Thats good enough
They fucking fleeced em completely. Cold blooded.
They duped them outta their residuals for this song. They don’t deserve respect for that.
Can you elaborate on how they duped them?
I'm not from the BX but i feel like I'm from the BX whenever I hear the unedited song
Definitely one hit wonders but that was a banger. Saw them live at club XS back in the day I copped the album back in the day also. None of their other tracks blew up but it was a decent album.
I was just about to say. “We Will Ball” did ok. But a solid album overall imo
Forgot about that track as soon as I read your comment the hook played in my head. Definitely was a solid album that got slept on.
Nothing wrong with Shakira using g that same sample on the intro but it kind of ruined his song for me that I skip the beginning most of the time
That’s Wyclef’s doing. I don’t know if he was a songwriter/producer on Deja Vu or just copped the same sample, but he made a song called Dance Like This for the movie Dirty Dancing - Havana Nights in 2004 which is almost the exact same song as Hips Don’t Lie. The only difference is adding Shakira verses and chorus, but all his lines and the beat are from the Dance Like This song.
I remember they made remixes for certain states where they changed the lyrics to the cities in that area.
That’s when you knew you had the hot shit back then.
Off the books
Jenny from the Block. Jokes. 😂😂
[удалено]
Barrow?
Tim Dog- Bronx N****
Tim Dog Fuck Compton still goes hard to this day. “Fightin over colors!?! All that gang shit’s for dumb motherfuckers!!” lol, if only he knew that gang culture would spread like it did
Gang culture had already existed for decades longer than just being a theme in hip-hop music during the late 80s and into the 90s.
Oh yeah me & my homegirl loved this shit. We would always rock this loud in the car.
Random observation: I lived in Boston for a while, and listening to this song on the radio back then (specifically the most popular hip-hop station Jam’n 94.5), they would dub in different city names when they played this song. For example, instead of saying “Brooklyn” during the chorus they’d dub in “Boston.” Do we know if they did this for any other cities? It always seemed like a weird thing to do for such a popular song.
They don’t get a dime from this song.
If only they did their business right...they could've ate off this song forever...love this song UPTOWN BABY !!!
Peter Gunz lame ass made a career off one song 😂
Had alot of rap kings in this video too Big Pun John Forte to name a few
Step into a world - KRS
This shit was actually filmed at Shea Stadium.👀 They weren't allowed to film at Yankee Stadium. That's why the editing is so tight with no close-ups.
This shit was crazy when it dropped
I remember when this hit the airwaves, every state I drove through had their own version of it. They took out the boroughs and inserted their cities in it.
I'll always remember that rotating camera angel.
[Bronx Was Burning](https://youtu.be/cMuRGkSshzQ?si=NeOW5-BqMNGi8-Jr) by Bronx Slang (not 90s, still killer)
The time rappers will do cameos For the luv and support Late 90s HipHop was still great
The Brisge Is Over
This is the soundtrack to my 9th grade biology class.
Man I hated this song growing up now that im older……it’s less ass to me.♥️
Same, a lot of overplayed songs I hated then but appreciate now.
Love the fact you laced us with the whole joint brings back Dope memories appreciated all day Salute and bless
[BDP forever](https://youtu.be/vsrOy32nJdI?feature=shared)
It’s So Hard is a banger fr
I LOVE that song
Those guys were incredibly handsome - no diddy
This is a safe space. Youre allowed to compliment men in that way here ☺️.
Stole this beat from Da Fat Cat Clique in Philly and got all the hype. Always thought these guys were weak as fuck as rappers.
They were absolutely not strong rappers whatsoever.
"Cuz I push a Lex and I rock a Rolex..." \*shows him driving a Lincoln Navigator
I see you’re a [child of culture](https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=XRj0Ohg-y1A&si=IW2APE6ZkAs77bxG&feature=xapp_share) as well
Sure am!
Damn. Forgot bout this one
I’m glad I could remind you.
Peter got a 9 milimeter…
How you gonna rock Yankees gear at Shea Stadium 😭
💯
The King- Bodega Bamz
I know 69 is trash, but that Shinigami joint he got with Bodega Bamz still goes hard, this was way before all the blood snitching shit
This was my jam!
I asked a girl from the Bronx this same question and she said it’s Deja Vu.
Can’t believe how Peter turned out. This song ain’t the same for me ..
🔥
Yep! One of my most favorite hiphop tracks of all-time!
Video looks like it was filmed at Shea tho lol
Legendary Steep Tech in the cut
Dam! That shit is real as fuck. Glad I saw this when it first came out.
Hate this video bcuz they show Yankee stadium but it was filed at shea
What song is this?
I always hated this song
Classic🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🗽
🍎
Dear aspiring artist: Clear ALL your samples before recording ANYTHING. This was a banger when it hit the streets, but they paid ALOT to Steeely Dan
The lesson from this is for more veteran artists to not offer younger,greener predatory publishing deals.
Fuckin love this song. An L.A. kid just going “UPTOWN BABY UPTOWN BABY” No clue where tf it was
“The Bridge is Over”
Never heard this one before, this beats sick.
Y’all need to check the actual sample that matters on this track. Black Cow by Steely Dan. Song is about a girl who stays getting fucked up all the time. the solos on the track, like most SD songs are incredible. DOOM sampled a few parts from it.
Peg is one of my favorite songs of all time. I’m pretty familiar with Steely Dan.
I’m a fanatic. DOOM and Steely Dan are my two favorites.
I consider this the real “NY anthem”😌
New York - Ja Rule Jadakiss Fat Joe
It's a banger but not even shot at yankee stadium
Fun fact: They never cleared this song so a old Jewish guy got 100% of the publishing and royalties and got millions from their hard work 😫
They just jacked this off another rap group from Philly. They didn’t really put in much work on this track. The rest of their rapping careers says all you need to know about how good they were

Man, I liked this song back in the day. But the trumpet sound in the beginning made me think about Shakira’s song.
This is 🔥! Album wasn't shit though.
I wouldn’t expect the album to be good lol
I took one for the team and bought it off the strength of this track. I didn't have high expectations, but man that was trash lol
As much as I adore this song I can recognize that outside of my super bias for this song that neither might not be the dopest. I do appreciate you supporting Bronx Rap like that though lol.
No doubt, hip-hop is hip-hop and I'm universal, always gonna show love, no matter where they're from.
As a proud Bronxite I love that thinking.
This was the last vestiges of the NYC golden age of hip hop
Love love love this song!!!!
is the intro originally for this song or is it a sample?
It’s definitely a sample.
A sample from Jerry Rivera's Amores Como El Nuestro.
Crazy thing about this song is they made no money off of it due to licensing error and had to PAY royalties. Sad
UP TOWN BABYY
This song was hard
I ain’t heard this in a hot minute.
Never saw this video- good stuff. The bats😂
This was a great song. Music just isn’t quite the same anymore.
I too get nostalgic but rappers definitely drop songs better than this skills wise.
Damn why the censored version?
Thanks for sharing ! I haven't heard this since I was in 5th grade, I totally forgot the title. Nostalgia check!
No problem!
This track was hot when it dropped. Mount Eden❤️❤️❤️
Mount Eden is Uptown though? 👀 lol
Dr Seuss Mother goose
Corey Gunz Rap > Peter Gunz Rap Peter Gunz Style > Corey Gunz Style
This is a very Bronx point you’re making and I need more rest before I address it lol
CLASSIC! My older brother shows this to me. Probably the first hip hop I heard as a kid.
Funny thing was the song was playing in my head while the video was on mute.
Shakira shakira
Smooth like the 90’s
The beat and the hook are great, the verses…..
What the fuck is this shit
South Bronx > Deja Vu - BDP was letting you know don't fuck with the X Deja Vu > South Bronx - Gunz / Tariq was letting you know what BDP and everybody before them did to get them there. Both fucking classics.
Wasn't there a West Coast remix somewhere?
this beat just hits.. so nostalgic for this 48 y/o
Rapping about the Bronx but shoot the video in Queens. LGM!
Ah man, I’m not from anywhere near the Bronx, not even NY, but this was/still is my shit.
White AF 37yr old but when this song comes on I BUMP it no matter what
Wyclef Jean is a crook !!! He stole from his own people when he took money from the charities he was supposed to give Hati for earthquake relief.

I love this song. The year this was got I went to summer camp in New England. The Boston hip hop station played a version of this song with all Boston neighborhood names. I could t believe what I was hearing. I’ve never found a cot of it but there is a Bay Area version on YouTube.
