for all those wondering; Da'Moe broke in his crib. When he says, "the nigga who did it popped the tape in the deck" refers to Da'Moe. There's a intro to part 1 that's not on here(it's the key to the riddle). Da'Moe picks him up from the airport and puts in the Donny Hathaway tape in the beginning of this fiasco. This story is extremely clever, vintage Com, I'm sure I'm 1 amongst few that figured it out back then. Buy the album, the intro is at the end of the Erykah Badu joint,"All Night Long."
honestly, this is one of my top 10 beats of all time. i can listen to it over and over just wish it was longer...stolen moment series is legendary too
106th south Eggleston ave (roseland area) Chicago of course, peace and prosperity to all my real Hip Hop heads. Come visit our city, and enjoy our downtown atmosphere.
songs from Common 3rd album... "One day it'll all make Sense"... this is part three to a song about someone breaking into his apt when he was outta town... CHI TOWN STAND UP
yo some cats just dont get it . hip hop is a culture and not radio stations top 10 of what they think is the top artist . common , black thought , mos def , big l , talib kweli, aesop rock , atmosphere , biggie , pac and pun are immortal
Yeah, the first part is from a Christopher Walken/Larry Fishburne joint called "King of New York" and the "shoot that piece of shit" part is Al Pacino from "Scarface".
