Naughty By Nature - Hip Hop's Pain (Freestyle) ft. Rene Neufville
Artist: Naughty By Nature
Producer: Dahoud Darien and Knobody
Album: Unreleased
Label: Unsigned
If your friend says, “Man, I miss hip-hop from back in the day,” chances are good that they are talking about songs like O.P.P. and Hip Hop Hooray from legendary group Naughty By Nature. Quiet since the release of their sixth studio album, IIcons, in ’02, emcees Treach and Vin Rock have reunited with former DJ, Kay Gee, and the trio is set to release a brand new album before the end of the year. Inspired by The Game’s current chart-rising single, Game’s Pain, the OG veterans hop on Dahoud Darien and Knobody’s beat and pay homage to all of the modern-day artists who have made them proud. Apparently, Hip Hop’s Pain is felt by everyone. Replacing Keyshia Cole’s vocals are those of fellow Jersey native, Rene Neufville, whose soulful background fits the track impressively. In addition to promoting their clothing line, “Naughty Gear”, the guys are planning a worldwide tour for early next year.

LOl...dang Z, you can't feature my remix though? LOL. J/K. This is hotness though. I had the honor to see Naughty live in concert last August at the Twin Cities Hip Hop Fest (which we sadly lost funding for this year). I will say Rene wasn't as good as Keyshia. This is so tyte though. A response track paying homage to the modern artists! This is really needed right now . I hope Naughty drops a new album!

I respect how he said thanks to Soulja Boy. I mean, there's a place in hip hop for everyone, so let's stop bickering about it. That's me too...lol. I'm gon take my own advice.

I agree she's not doin it like keyshia, But this is well done. I love how they gave love to the new school, I think that is an underrated thought in life. The old school payin homage to the youngsters who keep this hip hop in effect. Like it or not as long as people are rappin, hip hop is alive. Yall wanna know whats dead? Disco is dead, swing is dead, boyband pop is dead, Hip hop is alive and sick. This is why songs like this and Budden's series is so relivent. How can we fix the problem if where not focused on becoming apart of the solution. Everyone wants to complain or save it by themselves, but nothing great is done alone. If you don't like what the youngsters are doin correct um, don't just @*#$! about it, ICE-T... This is a good reflection of the old school who still love the genre and still deserve the respect they've earned.

I'm happy to see Naughty doing what they do best - Hip hop. This makes me miss a lot of old school acts but I def. think we have some good hip hop artists with us today. I like Rene's voice but I agree with most of ya, my girl Keisha was solid on "Pain."

WOW:), they weren't dissing Soulja Boy. They were acknowledging his place in the new music culture.
We respect the new school; all we ask is for you to respect the old-school. Anyone who rates this a 1 needs a remedial course in hip-hop history; Naughty by Nature are LEGENDS. |

This song is good because the one by Keyshia was good...I loved it! This is almost the same, excellent beat, beautiful voice...his flow is ok! When they re-make a "old" song, to me it's always something useless. I prefer artists to create new tracks! Anyway at least they didn't ruin this ;)
