MC Serch - 3rd Bass Medley (Live Session) | Vevo ctrl

Far Rock in the house! For our Hip-Hop At 50 celebrations this year, we’ve invited rhymers of all eras and geographies to step up to the ctrl microphone. MC Serch - real name Michael Berrin - is a cipher of the NYC hip-hop scene’s evolution from the formative ‘80s into the ubiquitous cultural power it became in the ‘90s. Dude was kicking it with Nas back when he was Nasty Nas, and cutting tracks at Chung King before the studio was a cultural landmark. Originally born in Queens, Serch made his name as a member of 3rd Bass. The white rap duo made it a mission to honor the Black genre that they loved, in part by seeking production from influential Big Apple producer Prince Paul who helmed their Def Jam release ‘The Cactus Album.’ Real heads will love riding with Serch down memory lane with his six-minute medley of 3rd Bass cuts, including the infamous 1991 diss track “Pop Goes The Weasel,” which partied at the upper end of the charts partly thanks to Serch’s acerbic bars aimed at Vanilla Ice (in order, he busted out “Back To The Grill,” “Pop Goes The Weasel,” “Product Of The Environment,” “Brooklyn Queens,”and “Gas Face” to close). It was clear from the jump that the OG hauled a big bag ‘o bars from his Brooklyn beach town to our studio. He also brought his pal Bobby J From Rockaway for a run through their latest collab “Round Here.” Fun day for everyone involved.
