CRU - Just Another Case (1997)

[karey26]

I can't get enough of this beat

[Gekibot]

I had the whole "tape." it was an amazing peace of work. Classic. That Pronto joint was really grimy. I always wondered if NINE was The Mighty HA. 1

[kaltklax]

super!

[gotboost4u]

This was rap these guys had a few joints....!no talk of who got the most dollars just straight flowing..

[BoxOfOranges84]

Consequence- Disperse. But I had to pay respects to the original beat

[joNzee33]

so dope...that J-Cole sideline joint ripped it off...

[JonesyProject]

I FOUND IT!!! IF FOUND IT!! Been looking for this joint for a loooooooong time. Thanks for posting this. -Jonesy

Sad shit. These dudes came and went and they were dope! I'm downloading the album now

[5thletterNC910]

This is a classic here...

[KeyGreen76]

J Cole flipped dis shit real nice on Sideline Story

[5thletterNC910]

@KeyGreen76 Yes he did...

[TLOKO]

Classic shyt...real hip hop. reminds me of the good ol days. Before skinny jeans n herb was trendy.

[PATHH88]

Black Rob was first heard on this album if i am not mistaken, i think Puff signed him after hearing him on the album and also Chad (one half of Cru) became one of the Hitmen (Puffy's production team)......CLASSIC UNDER RATED SLEPT ON ALBUM

[MyJunior1975]

@PATHH88 You're right about Black Rob, but it was actually Yogi, not Chad. I still like "Let's Get It" that he produced for G. Dep.

[brollya]

rap city.they used to make u wait til the end wen they played the hot songs..this was one of em

[cultfreedom]

[Keltic619]

this is classic hip-hop, wish i could go back in time sometimes...

[statick99]

sick also like the last ones! :)

[boots13100]

The most slept on album in 97,classic.

[steeltownbrown52]

@boots13100 O.C.'s "Jewelz" was slept on. This album had some joints but way too many meaningless skits.

[boots13100]

@steeltownbrown52 Yea Jewelz was slept on also, the skits wasnt bad, it wasnt no Prince Paul skitz but it was alright.

[78donjon]

@steeltownbrown52 Yeah, true. "Jewelz" along with Common's "One day it'll all make sense" ,Diamond D's "Hatred, Passions, and Infidelity" were also slept on(IMO).

[steeltownbrown52]

@78donjon Yeah, I didn't cop "One Day It'll All Make Sense" til' Winter-early 98'. Was blown away by "Invocation" and "Hungry"(which dropped round that time). I just finished high school and started working at my first job. "Hatred,Passion and Infidelity" I copped the day of release cause I loved "Hiatus".

[78donjon]

@steeltownbrown52 Word thats crazy bcuz I had just finished high school also and was heading off to army basic training. I copped Diamond, Common, O.C., and Busta's "Disaster Strikes" at the same time, the day before I graduated from basic training. I agree totally about "Hiatus" . To this day that beat just sucks me right in. You just inspired me to go see if I can find another copy. Im fortunate to live in an area that has a vintage hiphop spot. I just copped Jeru's 1st joint a few months bac.

[steeltownbrown52]

@78donjon Most of these albums we've mentioned(and a ton more that came out in 97') all received 3.5/5 mic ratings in Source Magazine.

[embassi]

used to have it on cassette.

[stretcherino7]

[mfmatt]

[bxrepper]

[malidapunani]

[therealmikebrown]

Keep this album in rotation on my android. Been listening to it for over 10 years, still have the original cd.

[yomamasophat206]

Classic beat. I had this album. Pronto is the song @ the end of the song. CRU was under appreciated. Real hip hop.

[pendleton123]

consequence-disperse. Sampled this song

[MsFatty79]

@pendleton123 Thts right I couldnt figure where i heard this beat from . THX!

I like both version.

[thacboogie]

[IRVINGTONTS]

[IIIAlexxIII]

 0:00 to 0:15 whats the name of this song?

[nldrayson]

@IIIAlexxIII Pronto

[IIIAlexxIII]

@nldrayson Thanks man !! :)

[SlimTwisted]

@IIIAlexxIII It's called Just Another Case

[SlimTwisted]

@IIIAlexxIII It's called Just Another Case but it merges into Pronto at the point where Slick Rick should have come in. A shame for sure

[cantthinkof123]

@IIIAlexxIII just another case

[jnugiel]

Clazzik!

[CharlesDiggings]

Man, that brought back memories. Thanks. I have this on vinyl but somehow forgot about it. It's been catching dust for a while, so to speak.

[KnippelmierChevy]

super track!

[bdscavenger]

bought this single back in the day

good song to dance to at a party

[Zeph100]

One of the nicest jams from back in the day. Still get "goose bumps when the bass line thumps....'

[daboe0909]

Oh my God this shitz about to bring tears to my EYEZ.... The music was so pure and hungry for greater creative expression.

[chishNfips2]

First heard these guy's sample on Foxy Brown's ill Nana Album and spent the next 3 days searching the internet.

[bigfreshdawg]

ik dacht het effe wel heee!

[rexboogie]

These cats was hot. We need them back .

[ESCOXTC]

I don't understand what happened with CRU. The Dirty 30 album dropped and it was hot. Then they vanished into the hip hop abyss like they never existed. Chad used to do his thing bombing out in the BX. Chad and Phamer tag team. They should have blown up!

[suaved]

@ESCOXTC

Yeah, I always wondered what happened to them. I bought their album the very year it dropped, but they never gave the fans any other albums.

[EazyGodfatha]

this song reminds me of children story - slick rick

[juiceaccts]

how?

[ac3alized]

CRU is my name and i was born in 1997 amazing i live in TN greenbrier

[djscrandy]

Yogi - The First Guy That Raps....

(This CD Was Off The Hook!!!)

[vuur020]

[hudson2441]

CRU had one of the best logos ever too. hehe

[callmecapo]

Yeah, growin' up I always thought I'd get it as a tattoo.. Heh.. :)

[Topboi123]

i listen to this song every day in my car man, never get bored, gotta be one of the best beats made ever, thats when it was a art to make them beats, now i can make beats on my pc, it aint real like it used to be, anyone hear me on that?

[gregnice25]

@Topboi123 yo i agree with you 100%...beats these days use that digital instrument sound...back in the day, it was samples and real instruments....that real boom bop sound...

[seattletyrida]

last time I heard Yogi is strictly producing.

[BlackWolff10k]

Damn Cats Slept on this Shit!!! I stil pump this!! I Get Nstier than Florida Evans DOO DOO Browning...Pronto.. My Favorite Bars of All Times.

[mrtoniboxe]

TONI PARA O MUNDO..O SOM É FODA DE MAIS

[red92077]

Great joint..But they should have left Slick Rick's verse in...How do you cut off the RULER??

[nldrayson]

He was in jail during the shoot of the video...

[niCKiB310]

This is the truth right here !!!!!!!

[creed180]

[MattyDownz]

hey man know exactly wot u mean except i force fed my mates some old skool beats and now ther addicted man try it out......oh and if u aint already heard of them listen to the album stress by organized konfusion, 3 2 1 is a SICK SONG!!! let us know wot u think

[Homura23]

[Lolifery]

[papichulo2534]

Damn, no lie...I haven't heard this track since 1997!...HIGH SCHOOL DAYS! How I miss the days of real hip-hop.

[cianamja]

I used to love the end of this vid when the pronto part came in/

[ch55x]

I haven't heard this track in years!

[blacktigerwu]

This album was classic but I was hearing the second was so sorry the record company never released it . But I played this until my CD was so scratched it wouldn't play anymore

[filamacan]

[tameone]

this album went so hard..dope track after dope track..miss those days when mcs put work in there music

[reynaldod7]

this whole album is fire,wish they did more work

[davjaffe]

Man, this is a dope O.G. track. I'm almost embarrassed to say I hadn't heard of these guys until now. I've gotta give thanks to Grandmaster Flash for playing this on his Saturday night show on Sirius/XM. It's depressing to think of the garbage that gets passed off as "hip-hop" these days and somehow finds success. With the exception of a few old heads still in the game, and even fewer newcomers out there, nobody's making music anymore for the fans of true school hip-hop.

[maurauder]

Ha-ha. Never knew there was a vid to this one. Still a banger. Thx!

[dunnydun1]

good add takes me back yo

[bigzizzo]

[streetstruck]

I commend you youngin..don't get caught up in the bullshit

[baldy0182]

@bigzizzo YOUR A SMART KID DONT LET ALL THIS "HIP POP" POISON YOU

[Jamerican44]

@bigzizzo Someone has taught you well young one. Now tell ya friends to do the same. Dont let true school die.

[mumsdawerd]

I heard this on Power 939 out of Wichita, Kansas on the radio. It was freakin DOPE. Seriously took me like 3 years to find out who actually did the song and have been burning this song on Tons of burned CD mixes i own now...prolly since 2000/2001.....

[manning1980]

I used to play the hell out of this cd! I have to buy this cd again! album still hotter than some albums out now!!!!!!!

[KidMaJunior]

I remember hearing this song on The Box music network in my childhood. Good times, good times. 5 out of 5 all the way.

[alicapone666]

hey its the best track of all time peace from germany ich liebe 90s hip hop I am the ALI from KARLSRUHE GERMANY TURKEY P A Z A R C I K___YO YO YO

[lushlip2lip]

6 years?? Yo, I been wantin to know who did this song since was 17, and now I'm 29! lol

[ProfPassion]

IT TOOK ME 6 YEARS TO FIND THIS FREAKING SONG!

its a miracle..

[Sonjay718]

I remember hearing this in 1997, but I never caught who did the song. It took me 10 years ('07) to find who made this song, and it was only because Consequence used the beat for "Disperse"! I love this song.

[R0B0TRON]

Siiiiiiiiiick...slick rick inspired luv.

[Philipp68]

is the intro a snippet from another tack or just a intro?? anyone??

[nldrayson]

The intro and outro is from a track called Pronto its on the album.

[peterscoop]

damn...

[CSIracing]

This song has some lines form Slick Rick's-Children's Story, great lyrical inspiration right there.

[mrcrews]
