this the old school thats so hard to find some people just listen to old school to sound cool or like its some kind of rep " oh yeah man only listen to gangster and sugarhill gang and tone loc" not taking away from that artists but this is amazing i like it because its good not to sound cool

[5burowz]

Your thoughts are weak. Your mind ain't deep enough.

[peterbenton]

The first and only real version of this track on youtube. Those times were about real hip hop, not about bitches and guns, not the way 2pac made it.

[wrecktheworld]

I think this and the original version are the best

[TrafiqJam]

this piano is originally sampled on 'Ike's mood' from Isaac Hayes and used also by Foxy Brown on 'letter to the firm'(Jackie Brown soundtrack)

[djmmcee]

@TrafiqJam Marley Marl used it here, but was the FIRST to use it... Remember Biz Markie? lol
