Luniz is a platinum-selling rap duo from Oakland, California formed by rappers Yukmouth and Numskull. They released an internationally successful hit in 1995 entitled "I Got 5 on It", two versions of which appear on their album Operation Stackola. A third version of the song, featuring Oakland rappers Dru Down, Shock G, Richie Rich, E-40, and Spice 1 and often found on the Internet as the Bay Area Ballas Remix, has also garnered radio play. Luniz were going to be featured on Tupac Shakur's One Nation project. Due to Shakur's death the album was never released.

During Master P's rise to national fame, Luniz attempted to spark an argument over the use of the concept 'the Ice Cream Man'. Due to their waning popularity which was overshadowed by P's skyrocketing exposure, the argument was not taken up by the media and they eventually fell into obscurity.

Luniz also had a major row with Too Short, deriding him on their song "Playa Hata" and saying in the song "that's why the town got rid of Short." This led to an altercation at KMEL Summer Jam in 1996, between Too Short and some posse members of Luniz. Too Short was banned from KMEL radio for a brief period of time as a result of the fight at Summer Jam. In the song "Oakland Raiders", however Luniz gave credit to Too Short as being "The first Oakland Raider on the set."

  • if they just added too short it would be perfect

  • Blast from the past, I wish it never changed... love 90's beats, keepin it real

  • remixes are the reason we had to buy certain cd singles like this one!

  • @Frutek112 You're stupid..

    This was out in 95, pac was in jail from early 95 to october 95, Luniz had this track way before on their album, so I don't see how pac would have just ripped this and put it on his own album, he was tight way Bay cause he lived in Oakland when he was 17, did tracks with Richie Rich,Warren G,Spice 1

    Why reply with bullshit when you're obviously uneducated lol.

  • @TheTupacDedication what are you talking shit? this remix would be on packs next plate if he wouldnt die. Don't talk bullshit if you don't know...

  • its funny watching these old joints and see them doing shit that people think are knew....like the c walk style dancing
