Real talk dawg, this triggerman beat is the basis of all New Orleans bounce music. Thats where it originated from.

Much love hope y'all got yo money, cause I heard at least 20 versions of this joint, in da 504, before dat I smoked much and drunk many 40's to the original,

[blakfloyd]

lol, what are you, like 15? The original version of this song was a campy, damn near cartoony, story stylistically borrowing from the 40s gangster era told in a way similar to the dialog you'd expect to hear in 50s television crime dramas like The Untouchables or Dragnet.

[blakfloyd]

Don't go talking on subjects you don't know about. I don't know you, let alone your age, but ANYONE who came up in NOLA during the early 90s is beyond aware of the literally hundreds of songs that sampled the original 1985 version of this song. This newer version, however, is a pale imitation of the original. Seeing all the forced-in T&A shots makes this feel like Poison tried to cover Led Zeppelin the way that such an undeniable classic has been reduced to being nothing more than a cash grab.
