    Hammer is/was a bigger poser than Ice-T and Kanye West. The black Alice Cooper. I recall Hammer appearing on the Mike Douglas show, where a little kid kicked hammers posing dancer ass. Look it up. It may be around.

  11. K.... F....

    James Brown was fucking Hammer up in the beginning Shooting fire out his hands. 😆 LOL

  18. S.... B....

    This is one of the greatest videos of all time and easily one of the greatest Rap videos of all time simply because it has writing and plot equal to Michale Jackson's legendary videos, but the dancing is OUTSTANDING. MC Hammer was and will always be the greatest stage performer of Hip Hop. We all love Heavy D and Kool Moe Dee, but no one could tear up a stage like MC Hammer. Word.

  19. s.... d....

    LMFAO EAZY E SAID WHO LOL

  20. H.... S....

    So relevant

  21. T.... B....

    Hammer signed friends of mine to a contract and was set to go on tour together
    ( they were a rock band ) then he went bankrupt. Hammer was a cool dude and told them to help theirselves to anything they wanted from his studio. Tons of costumes were there and i ended up with a grip of those baggy pants.
    The kids in the neighborhood had a blast playing dress up with them and running around. Eventually they all ended up destroyed from water damage where they were stored but they were cool while they lasted and made for a good conversation piece. His house in Fremont where i lived back in his prime, was pretty Amazing. No house was able to build as high on the hill as Stanley did, but he got special permission from the county.
    Anyway, Stanley/ Hammer, also belongs to a private camp ground that my brother belongs too, you always knew when his folks were in the park cause they had the biggest baddest RV's there. He's a good dude and financially helped a lot of people during his big fame yrs. His ontriage was 100 people deep and he would have to charter a 747 for everyone while on tour.
    If i can say one thing about hammer, that one word would definitely be
    "" LEGIT ""

  22. W.... W....

  25. R.... D....

    Is that Jim Belushi? Hell Yeah Hammer Time!

  26. T.... ....

    So, was the "gloved one" a reference to Michael Jackson?

    T.... ....

    Yeah, it was a good natured feud, like wrestling. An act, a joke.

  27. f.... ....

    There are enough shoulder pads in this video to protect a hockey team.

  28. P.... A....

    Yes IN THIS YEAR 2020 I USE SOME OF this in MY MOVES INTO OUR HOUSE MUSIC EVENTS IN CHICAGO EVERYONE ASK ME HOW YOU BE DOING THESE DANCE MOVES.THANK YOU MC HAMMER

  29. J.... B....

    What I loved about his dancing was that it had a very masculine feel to it. Very military like. Sometimes it’s hard watching men dance. Not this guy

  35. S.... G....

    8:30 You are welcome.

  36. R.... G....

    It would seem many, including myself, forget how Boss he really was back then. Btw..what Hammer considers broke wasn't and isn't the same as what most of us consider broke. Think he's soft and run up on him...F around and get your skull drug.

  37. P.... M....

    I'm bout to make sum Michael fans. He cudnt touch 🔨. Hammer took dancing to a whole nother level

  38. M.... F....

    Yeaaa!!!!!!!!!

  39. H.... B....

    Took my brother to see hammer in 1988 at Birmingham (uk) NEC .....great show.....snap was opening act.....

  40. G.... ....

    2:39 Who the fark are Rob and Fab?
    --------------------
    3:25 Sweet movement and word play.
    -------------------
    4:15 Cool x Cool
    --------------------
    5:20 This bit right here(and the rest too)....imagining all the MONEY and TIME spent to make Hammer look popular, and knowing what we know now(about how it would end up), I can only laugh.....every second is likely thousands of dollars own the drain if not more. Still, a somewhat nice production in spots, though.
    ------------------------
    7:10 OMG they predicted the sh*tty MIB sequel. o.0
    ----------------------
    8:25 Lol, all the audience members are black people...that's hella r*cist.

  56. a.... ....

    Who is the female singer in the music video

  57. a.... ....

    One of the greatest songs and music videos of all time

  58. S.... ....

    I keep waiting 4 prince or Michael to jump out

  59. z.... ....

    im sure ill get hate for this but i think mc hammer was a better dancer than michael jackson but i think michael was a better singer imo.

  60. R.... T....

    Lol, after all these years it just hit me that he was referring to taking out MJ and although his music was entertaining as a child. He must have been outside his mind to even dream that he could take on the likes of Michael Jackson. Need to stay off that coke.

  61. W.... L....

    Strangely prophetic video intro...

  62. Z.... B....

    Jan 1 2020....energy from this vidro is excitingly electrifying

  63. J.... W....

    If there is a better dance video out there, I aint seen it!!!

  64. m.... ....

    looks like he's having some kind of paulsey attack...... help him......

  65. J.... C....

    8:33-8:46 (but sped up) when you find a chest full of orange-rarity weapons in borderlands

  66. R.... w....

    I remember when Monday thru Sunday was packed at a club and now they are all ripped down for a restaurant or cafe...r.i.p. clubs.

  67. T.... O....

    2020 hammer is still 2 legit 2 quit

  68. j.... ....

    When these people complain that “ hip hop is dead” we want that “ real hip hop back” show them this. Hip hop is more then just boom bap and lyrics.

  69. a.... ....

    I watched this just to see Easy E and DJ Quick together!!

  70. C.... S....

    Best dancing rapper ever!

  71. T.... E....

    MC Hammer could dance and no one gives him credit. Chris Brown gets all the credit for dancing like Micheal Jackson. While MC Hammer is left in the dust. Give this man his credit he could dance his ass off.

  72. J.... J....

    OAKLAND THE BOMB OAK TOWN GOTTA LOVE IT CANT BELIEVE THE RAIDERS IN VEGAS JUST WIN BABY

  73. n.... ....

  89. T.... B....

    Now I see why MC Hammer went bankrupt. Spent all his money on this music video.

  90. R.... C....

    I will continue to say, MC Hammer deserves a lifetime achievement award! #4SHO

  91. P.... C....

    Im going to be like MC Hammer 2L 2L 2Quit because im just like detecto greeso matico with my shades you cool cats. Even if their trying to fire you its like quitting because it looks bad on record or file their. Im taking his dance moves now that i have seen em. Yeaaaaaah! Theirs too many dance moves there man. There is a lot. Hes every where. All over the place man. With a tempo that rivals any other. Perhaps not the Godfather, but many others more for sure. You see him throw fire wow. He hit him with it and it was "The gift". I am glad he didn't burn to a crisp because I am also going to take his dance class this after noon. This guy is fast and strong it seems in his dance. He might not be stomping and making a lot of noise with his feet but, he steps in place most of the time like a macho man. Their might be some places where he relaxes but it might be something little. It is still a good song ey. This is the best i have seen so far man. With finishing dance move of the splits. Its very good.

  92. R.... B....

    What ENERGY Him and his whole Crew,DAM!!!!! And did you all see the little kid?!!!@ Come back Mr Hammer!!!!

    R.... B....

    He kept making music for many years after this, just didn't go far. Got some airplay locally in Nor Cal and Bay area.

  93. R.... B....

    Family ! I do not know what happened to Mr M C HAMMER,But I will tell you all this Brother was no Joke!!!!!!! Make that come back Hammmer!!!!

  94. H.... K....

    Hammer gangsta walking on y’all like he was straight out the Memphis 10. Great dancers recognized great dances🔥🔥🔥🔥 #getbuck #memphisbitches

  95. B.... R....

    It's an embarrassment, video clip is longer than song itself (which is bad anyway). It should be forbidden, Michael Jackson song "Bad" is really good but its full video clip is way too long (fortunately it was rarely played in TV music stations).

    And before someone reply me that I'm trolling, I'll tell straight: I came here only for hear how bad MC Hammer is (yes, I think he is bad, and I'm not alone with this statement). I like only his song "U Can't Touch This" which is actually good (only because plagiarized Rick James instrumentals, but result is not bad), his other songs are trash, no wonder that I've never heard them before.

    By the way this song should be named "2 Wack 2 Stay" xD.

  96. b.... a....

    Even the most hard core thugs once banged Hammer! A legend in my book!

  97. M.... !....

    This is what the music industry is missing....talent! This is when artists took their craft serious. Timeless!
