Y'all will never know the feeling of this song beating out 3 12s in the trunk of your '87 Crown Vic sitting on 20s in the Summer of 2000...that energy can't be re-created

@mgene8093

Nostalgia

@JasGill07

Mannie Fresh was a monster with the beats

@taronjordan5894

Sly Tendencies Oh of course

@ballinnickyc

Absolutely. He's something of an unsung hero of a producer. The lyrical subject matter may not be everyone's cup of tea (it is mine idc) but i think anyone can appreciate the production value, this classic stuff still sounds better than a lot of new music, Check out the cash money millionaires instrumental album..

@ballinnickyc

Worth picking up a used copy of the vinyl single just for the instrumental I'd say. (You know it's got to be a great track when the instrumental and vocal mixes are equally good
