Skin Deep - no more games (Part I) (1996)

[gdizzlez]

i KNEW there was a lil kim/junior mafia r&B track that sounded just like Dear Mama... but i could NEVER FIND IT and plus i lost the Hot97 radio rip cassette tape (remember those?) that had the recording years ago. Thanks Youtube... I still can't believe I'm listening to this right now..

[Montranese1]

Aka: ERIC! This was my shit! I was in ATL. when this dropped, skin-deep where at... the game needs u, an lil'kim come back an relax nicky!

[shotokanami]

in 20 yrs time the 90's music will becomee a myth. damnn shame i think i should make a time capsule..;)

[kgurlballin]

players anthem in the background

[iloveatlantaga]

I really miss this Lil' Kim. I really wished she did NOT touch her face. She was beautiful the way she was. Anyway, RIP to the 90's. THe best decade ever, and I took it for granted.

"I really miss this Lil' Kim. I really wished she did NOT touch her face. She was beautiful the way she was."

That's the truth!

[dj4562010]

Shit this reminds me of taking the A train going to work lisntening to the red eye show with Fat man Scoop when he just started...

[KidMoneyFresh420]

Yo if pac flowed over this it wouldve been OFFICIAL!!!!!.................­Minus lil kim tho.

[0505dry90]

wow it straight up almost sound like dear mama by 2pac

[grincheuxmacdaddy]

Tiouuuuuuuuuuu!!!!!!!! What song! Crazy!!!

[noezelaya7]

@0505dry90 dumb ass its the same sample

[iAmLegendELMO]

That's my uncle doing his thing.

[Onli1MizzLoca]

yup its true... me and TheDANiiBABii personally know Tracy. he is doin good, trust me i see him almost everyday livin a happy life. so whoever started the rumors clearly need to have a seat.

[TheDANiiBABii]

I know Tracy Hester (the bald one) personally (i swear on my life) and he did not get strung out on drugs.. he is doing very good now !

[thycklioness]

Nicki MInaj can't add a banger like this to her credits..

[kookoo78]

I used to love this song...I wonder if it didn't make it big because Lil Kim said "Full Metal Jacket like Tom Hanks" because I don't recall him in that movie???

[CultureAddict26]

@kookoo78 i never understood that reference either. Full Metal Jacket is a movie, but the term Full Metal Jacket is the term for a type of bullet with a soft metal core totally incased in hard metal. Only army movie tom hanks has been in is Saving Private Ryan. Maybe that's what she is referring to?

[ahaiku]

@CultureAddict26 Forrest Gump was SORT OF an army movie.

[TandJ1158]

@CultureAddict26 Sorry if this is old...I just stumbled upon this video.

The Tom Hanks reference isn't to the 'Full Metal Jacket' line. She's saying: "like Tom Hanks banks the chips" referring to the fact that Tom Hanks was banking chips, or banking money at that time.

[TandJ1158]

@CultureAddict26 I'm sorry if this is so late but I just stumbled upon this video.

I don't think the reference Little Kim is making is to the line "Full Metal Jacket" She's saying "like Tom Hanks banks the chips, B.I. packs the clips" referring to the fact that Tom Hanks was banking money at the time. He had just done Forrest Gump, Apollo 13 and Toy Story (the animated movie). Saving Private Ryan came out a couple of years later.

[bigman912]

[SAYBOW69]

[minhasc]

Nobody could make this hit u like 2pac did with Dear Mama. Just couldn't match that shit, especially Lil' Kim.

[vas0921]

Ppl slept on this group...Fell in love w/this some the 1st time I heard it & had 2 get the album!

[1who1ders]

OMG!!!! This was a hot song!!!!

[angela1433]

I LOVE THIS CD--- I STILL HAVE MINE FROM 1998--ITS ALITTLE SCRATCHED- but I COULD NEVER TRHOW IT AWAY!!! GOD--- it is SOOOO hard to find these songs...... i tried to replace it SO many times!!  wow.... just close your eyes and listen.... memories..... wow......

[antdaman1983]

[shashou124]

[BLACKFONZIRELLI]

classicccccccccccccccccccccccc­cc

[peacekarlalove1210]

tht dude in 3:17 iz my fukn azziztant prinziple lmao no lie!

[twinronda]

hahaha

[MizzWandii24]

Thats My Dad.... Yea The Bald One And He Is Not Strung Out On No Damn Drugs!!!! Love You Dad

[twinronda]

Is this Tracys daughter?? Is your moms name Wanda?? If so, I am one of the twins. I'm almost sure you dont remember me but my dad and your dad were and may still be good friends. We went with you to Planet Hollywood for your Bday many years ago in a limo. ha, idk how I remember that. I had Skindeeps tape and I know every single song on it. I loved this group, I wish they would have did more. Plz tell your dad that Rons daughter Ronda says hi.

[ahaiku]

That's what's up. I'm 29. This song came out when I was 16 & it's 1 of my favs. Now, this may seem a bit weird, but my daughter's father has me looking at all this conspiracy theory stuff & I'm wondering if there is any truth 2 it. Ask your Dad if it's true that 2 be truly successful in the music business, you have 2 be a mason or eastern star. Is there really a plot 2 influence the masses thru subliminal demonic messages & symbols? Is hip hop being used 2 usher in the New World Order? 1Love

[SDSOverfiend]

@ahaiku - Yes that is true.

Keep in mind people with the real talent never get far or often meet a demise at the hands of other influences.

[devero89]

hey SKINDEEP this is DEVERO

I lived next door to you!! 496 e 24th street. I hope all is well!!!

[Brownocean]

@ahaiku Yes its true. I know these guys and Shyne. And they all talked about the 'society'.

[Tigea1]

Fuckn love this song. 1:17 tooo cute

[AdinaVaughn]

gotta luv it .

[cdsboyg]

ha, i forgot about dis 1 , classic lil kim was PENG!!

[TheRenstarmusic]

You freaky (Tracy) trust me thats just a lie, i co-wrote this record and the original was so hard the label thought it had to much of a RAP feel and look what happened. Everybody was trying to marry that sound.

[SAYBOW69]

If true you co-wrote that song? Wanna say hell of a job my man, was me and my girls song! I lost cassette and have never been able to find, cause i forgot thier name (knew collabo with lil kim) and kept hittign "no more games" on music sites and not on them? So was jsu twoanderign why they conflict with "itunes" got nothing form them on that site? So do you i can purchase song or video for ipod? But great job, GREAT SONG!!

[kookoo78]

@SAYBOW69 I had to type Lil Kim and Dear Mama into google's search engine because I couldn't think of Skin Deep (I was typing Mister Mister and Playa) and I couldn't remember the name of the song.

[bklynprnce718]

This is when lil kim was pretty! damn she messed up with all the altering!

[dontfuckwithmeman]

We went to school together. I miss him.

[dontfuckwithmeman]

Tracy Hester (the bald one) what ever happened to him?? I heard he got strung out on drugs. I was in love with that dude back in the day. :-(

[85ladylove]

well im here to set the record straight thats my baby is not strung out on drugs the only thing addictive about him is his pipe game but other then that he is doing just fine.... lady love

[ricosauve33]

What did you hear about Tracy Hester.. Where's the last place you've seen him? Did you go to the Bay?

[damiononupsal]

[kgurlballin]

[DrtyWrm]

Does anyone have the remix to this, and I dont mean the remix with Keith Murray there was another remix with a different beat. Cant find it anywhere, I think it was the b-side to the casette single. Peace

[claudee26]

Yes! great song & Lil Kim Laced it as usual

[AmandaFrank09]

[fantasiafan1]

This is my joint and I still play this in my car ipod etc.. I love this song

[ManofDestiny]

i thought i was the only one who knew this song

[1rnbfan]

i be feeling the same way sometimes.

[mayena]

Man that was a popular sample Joe Sample - In All My Wildest Dreams. Quite a lot of artists sample this example 2Pac, Anthony Hamilton etc.

[pahbs]

De La Soul used this sample on their second album.. 1991..

[eilselesrun]

Oh this is amazing! A whole lotta S-Curl, dippity doo, and man-scaping on the dudes and Kim before the breast implants and colored wigs. Damn I miss the '90s!

[bklilmomma]

this song didn't drop in 1998 it drop in 1996 comeon now just look @ lil kim and u know its not 98

[bklilmomma]

No, this song dropped in 1996 this was one of my favorite songs then, and also if you look @ kim its clearly not her look in 98 and just listen to her lyrics obvious not 98!

[lovethehills2]

oh yeah you know your music this came out 96 not 98 made props

[Troublesome2008]

Hell Yeah! I remember this song. I knew it had to be on Youtube, but i didn't know the name of the song. So i typed "Full metal jacket + Lil Kim" in Google. I only remembered that line. And now i found it!
