The Pharcyde – Passin’ Me By (1992)
Directed by: Sanji
The Pharcyde “Passin’ Me By” (BET Version) from Bizarre Ride II The Pharcyde.
Critically acclaimed as an absolute classic of the alternative Hip-Hop genre, it’s been name-checked by Kanye West as his favorite album of all time and aptly described by NME as “… a cartoon-strip of blunt-smoking antics, sexual innuendo and unashamed political incorrectness, crammed with infectious beats.” A true West Coast original that sprang up amidst the early 1990s gangster rap landscape like LA’s answer to De La Soul’s D.A.I.S.Y.-Age mentality in its freeform creativity. Essential and enduringly unique, Bizarre Ride II The Pharcyde is a rite of passage for any serious Hip-Hop head.
