  • Dj premier is my all time favourite producer a long with jay dee,but Damn,9th got it with this one,you gotta acknwoldge the real man,cant hate on it

  • I like 9th Wonder alot more than DJ Premier, and this is a fantastic remix, but Premier's version was slightly greater.

  • i loooove 9th wonder, but premo did better on this one

  • fresh does anyone kno wut album its from?

  • cant top the o.g close second tho

  • on par with the original one of the few times premo has been matched. double checkmate!

  • not even close to the original, but the originals a classic... good though

  • Phat remix by 9th, but it ain't nowhere near as dope as the original

  • The original was Godly, but this version is just... better. Much love.

  • love this remix.

  • Well made :D, like the chorus.

  • I like them both..love Preme and 9th..he just refreshed it.

  • I like the old one better, just me.

  • I lived in those words through out my life..(A)..(Queens) native.......Has anyone asked  Mr. Jones about that creative thought proces he went through leading up to this particular storied poem. Themed into a song.>..........

  • one of the greatest tracks of all time.

  • This beat is ALRIGHT, but it ain't in the same fuckin' league as the original.

  • @Stylus1997 for real

  • i cant stop listening to this masterpiece

  • Why did you speed up the vocal track instead of slowing downing the background?

  • Great song... what are you waiting for?? Check out my page for some ill 9th Wonder beats featuring Prof-ecy

  • mad respect to 9th wonder on this. but i feel the original is still better. 

  • old ass fucking song that still needs to be played

  • yall gotta remember though that 9th was taught everything he knows by Pete Rockwell, so yeah 9th is the shit and yeah 9th is on a whole nother level than these other djs out right now, just hasnt gotten all the limelight he deserves if you ask me

  • That light guitar riff almost sounds like a mandolin with the sample sped up like it is...

  • dude...9ths remixes to music are just too nice dude, i just wish i could hear the instrumental

  • word.

  • THIS IS A GOOD BEAT BUT WHYD U FUCK UP NAS VOICE IDIOT

  • @cripbuddz the voice fucks up cause he sped it up to match the beat..

  • i like that remix.. fucking great

  • i love the beat.....but why did he have to twitch Nas's pitch?? his voice was perfect! 9th shoulda pitched his beat instead!

  • I really don't like hearing this song remixed, but I can get down with this. The original beat is amazing, but I am so feeling this:)

  • sorry premier's version is way better

  • @MurvMuzik hell no

  • sick!! 5*

  • He should've just used this instrumental for something else man...no point trying to top an already dope as fuck song

  • this always prove that 9th is dope!

  • could some one please tell me what the fuck instrumental did 9th put on here

  • fuckin crazy song.

  • i still gotta say orig is better.... infact one of my top primo beats of all time. as a bass player that bass guitar orientated beat is the top of the top

  • dis shuve been d original

  • i got mad love for premo's beats, hes a big influence to me and the hip hop game... but i gotta say, im feelin this 9th wonder remix more... DOPE DOPE DOPE DOPE DOPE beat

  • great song!

  • One Of My Fav....GREAT

  • he never grew up, 31 & cant give his youth up

  • @xpoondiggy like many people

  • what's the original sample of this dope track?

  • best days of my life - modulations

  • @kochcurve

    thanks man :)

  • No need to try to best the premo beat; the shit was ill!

  • lol i was about to say! re-recording a premo beat is like trying to re-write a mozart concerto. leave the genius to the geniuses.

  • 9th is always on point check his remake to ether

  • why does it sound like his voice is high pitched

  • this is dope but not better than the original preme joint

  • SICK!!!

  • check out Nas - Get down (Nujabes Blend)

  • Shit is soooo hot. 9th wonder is number 1.

  • is there a download to this song ?

  • This is better than the original

  • soo beast 9th go hard wit it

  • This is beautiful

  • Can I get an instrumental of this?

  • im in love wit 9th wonder beats. lol

  • man idk i think i like this one better then the original.

    nas=best mc

  • I love Prem and 9th....But i must give the edge to 9th on this one. This joint brings so much life and nostalgia to the song. Really soulful.

  • DAMN! this is DOPE!

    the way Nas' voice is sped up in this track sounds like he did when he was 17 and freestyling...

  • ate too many potato muffins

  • this is ill, mad props for 9th here.

  • 9th killed this but kept preemos scratches , this is hip hop

  • sorry man better than the original. I have all the respect for Premo, but 9th killed this!!

  • @madvillain6184

    umm the beat is sick, but you cant fuck with preme's version!

  • @madvillain6184 I'm one of the BIGGGGGEST 9th fans.... he can do NO wrong in my eyes.... but, the Original is allllllll 100%!

    Love both.... But the Original is that deal. One thing is certain.... both of em' will rokk thru the ipod and Boom-Boxes!

  • @madvillain6184 Agreed.

  • @madvillain6184 i don't know if i would go that far but this remix is unbelievably dope

  • i need this instrumental

  • @mrs9thwonder me too lol!

  • This beat is so dope

  • Yup, 9th did an EXCELLENT job on this remix. I'll be honest though, maybe only 2 or 3 more of his remixes off the album were actually this good.

  • 9th came thru with this one, hella smooth, but i dont understand people who didnt like the original preemo version, the only bad thing i can say about that version is that ive listened to it too many times lol

  • nas 4eva, he make me feel good

  • Yeah this remix is so much better than the original. I found the original hard to listen too.

  • I dunno about that.....Premo fuckin killed the track, that shit is classic, this remix is sick but definitely cant fuck with the original

  • nah premes way better, the peabo bryson sample is too nice

  • @pro750i i agree

  • sick beat....but i wish he didnt change the pitch of the vocals

  • word

  • love dis remix better than da original. its more smooth.

  • 9th wonder killed the track!

  • this is my shit, cant stop bumpin this

  • yeah, 9th wonder can make already amazing song even more blazing! fire up! nas&preemo&9th wonder big up

  • i love this mix, i really cant decide whether i prefer this to the og bcoz they r both dope as hell

  • tell me about it Mafiosi5 simply incredible

  • where can i download this song for free!?

  • second childhood is easily my favortie song on stillmatic, but this might be better than the original

  • not coming close to the original

  • Word son...LOL.

  • Yea doesnt come close to the original...this beat is better suited for this track kid....9th wonder by far one of my fav producers...his beats are just that dam good...

  • nah homie.  this beat is more soulful but the original is more playful. hence the name second childhood.

  • yea cause its so much better

  • absolute crack rock

  • best 9th beat ever? i think this has my vote.

  • there's nothing better for my ears than listening to hip hop like that!!!

  • 9th Wonder has done it again!!!

  • where could i get this mixtape?

  • Sample is "The Modulations-Those Were the Days"

    I had used this joint before myself...9th just looped the first 10 seconds of the joint back and filtered the bass real high in it. Dope joint if I may say so myself...but its one of his more "Easier" beats. I know any able producer including 9th could've taken what he did with the sample and knocked it out in 10 minutes...Its not HOW u do it tho, its whta u do, and this is classic to me. Good ish

  • Yeah, most of 9th beats are easy looped but they are brilliant because of his drums and his mixing. It's always the result that counts!

  • Whaa...? You can't have heard so many beats from 9th if you think that most of them are easy looped :p

  • I agree that this is easy when you consider the sample, but what 9th does to the music to accomodate the hook is simply fuckin amazing. I can't tell what he manipulated exactly, but for someone like me who can't make beats, it comes off as something with a high level of difficulty.

  • Nas's voice sounds like it's at a higher pitch. could be wrong though.

  • means its been sped up a bit

  • @TheRealPimpinCurly it aint about how easy the beat was made..its about enoying it simply because it is music

  • diffently one of my top five 9th beats. so smooth, havin nas on it couldnt hurt either

  • haha. Nas sounds chipmunked on this track. he skewed the vocals so its in the right key. shudda skewed the track to fit Nas' vocals. beats nice tho.

  • i agree

  • jesus 9th KILLS it every damn time! THIS is soul music

  • anyone got the instrumental for this?

  • yo this beat is just toooo nice!

  • anyone know what sample 9th used?

  • damn, this got me doing some mad head-bobbing at the library

  • dope. but not better than premo

  • Nice beat! also check out soul supreme presents 2nd childhood.

  • it's 9th Wonder

  • This beat is fire!!!!!!!!!!

  • Good laud, this is fire!!!

  • preem kiiiillleedd it man....its unbeatable

  • bro its 9th wonder not preem, its on the title

  • LMAO @ People still saying 9th wonders version is better then Primos....9th is probably my favorite producer right now, but in no way did he match the emotion of what Primo brought out of Nas....This beat doesn't even give the right atmosphere for the song.

    Cooking Souls remix of this song is better then 9ths...They matched the tempo and emotion, with a beautiful melodic beat....I love 9th wonders beats, but this one doesn't come close to the original.

  • agree

  • cooking soul is fucking wack..... them dude ain't matching shit up. listen to there "fakin jax'" remix... straight up sample stelaing, no originality motherfuckers. atleast 9th chops his shit up

  • Am I saying Cooking Soul is overall better???? Did I imply that in anyway??? No....I distinctly put emphasis on the remix of 2nd Childhood, and their direction was better and more suited for the vibe of the original song.

  • naaaah original is way better

  • original is iller

  • this is better

  • its like this original is always better cause its classic but if this was the original the original would noe be as good as this so that mean its equal dig me?

  • u kind of confused me there but i understand it now

  • word. I heard this version first before listening to Primos and Cookin Soul's version. I have to admit you're right.

  • The original beat is better, but this is still nice.

  • fkn love dis track

  • i like this remix better

  • who has the PREMO VERSION OF THIS

  • the original is the "premo version"....

  • Even though I'm one of 9th's biggest fans, I gotta say I like the original better

    I mean it is a Premo beat

  • NAS = motherfucking LEGEND

    9TH WONDER = one of the best producers EVER

  • I usually like all of 9th wonder's remixes, but I think the original is better in this case.

  • I wont say the original is better. Both are great but they have very different atmospheres. This remix makes this song more emotional.

  • can you give me the link on rapidshare plz

  • iw ant it on mp3 :(

  • look for the album

    9th invented the remix

  • Yeah, I just downloaded the CD on Rapidshare. Thanks.
