  • Yes...this the beat the put D.J. Irv & T. T. Tucker on the map in New Orleans Louisiana...it also was the Instumental that was sampled into many "Bounce Music" Hits that branched out over the world. He is the Reason For Bounce in New Orleans as well The Showboys.

  • derek boland died today

  • derek boland died today, of a massive heart attack

  • So this is where the brown beat was used first. Now it's used for a different genre of Hip-Hop called "Bounce" which started in New Orleans late 1991-early 1992 from some 10th ward deejays, I believe TT Tucker or The Everlasting Hitman. But I do know it was at a Cohen Senior High School Winter formal where it all started. Unfortunately it has evolved to this new thing called "Sissy Rap".

  • derek was music of lifes front man putting out US artists for the label then came demon boyz asher & freddy duke thrashpack hijack etc.

  • thanks for the info mellowprod

  • No Derek B was only the Dj. The rappers name was easy Q. I think he says it to in the first 2 lines

  • eazy q was his alter ego my friend. They are the same person.

  • @melloprod - Wow really... I honestly did not know that..... and I also Wikipedia'd it and it backed it up...! Great trivia..

    that sample derek keeps mixing in the chorus is "don't tell it" by james brown.
