[MzSherice]

This was the joint.....1987. Also used as a breakbeat that got the crowds hype.... classic hip hop!

[brothaman101]

True Mathematics was not part of the S1W's he is from Hempstead New Jersey,. His name is Kenny Houston and he was inspired to write "For The Money" by Eddie Murphy. At the time he was living in Eddie Murphys guest house with Eddies brother Charlie and K-9 Posse member Vernon Lynch. He saw first hand how the women were after eddie and wrote a song about it.
