@Mrprincejannisg It's a free mixtape(the 9th Wonder version, where this song is from) but he released it on CD with one more remix on it (2nd Childhood).

9th Wonder is on another plane as Eminem as a producer, hands down.

@desertdetroiter ..difficult to listen to todays garbage,dont get me wrong the gods are still out there creating top notch productions,its just***the bar was set so high back then***...we(our generation) been analytical for 20+ years....back then originality was the #1 thought,NEVER TO BITE,to seperate yourself from the rest....the dumb deaf and blind will never understand...so many robots in this new world,it hurts my mind body and soul,.like the god said."TEACH THE CHILDREN,SAVE THE NATION"



@JColeM7785 Most sample because they CAN'T create those melodies. You say "steal," and technically you're right, but this is hop hop...sampling isn't something separate from this genre, it's part of it. If a guy can grab a 2-5 second melody and chop it into something completely different, that's very respectable. I yearn for the days when Primo and Pete rock sampled 5 different records to make one song. LOL, real music fans love the research. The original artist gets new fans, and everyone wins.
