I love Ra flow on this...different type content. Still superb flow skill unmatched. Seems like the tug of war phase of Ra and Dre.

TheFUNKSTARR

Dope dope! Hi-Tek played this instrumental on his IG live too!

Hip Hop

What is the official song that this beat belongs to?

TheFUNKSTARR

@Hip Hop I'm certain this is a shelved track from Rakim's and Truth Hurts' tenure at Aftermath, Hi-Tek was Aftermath staff too and is closely tied with Dr. Dre.

Hip Hop

@TheFUNKSTARR

Thanks for the info buddy.

Bill Wallace

This is the official song. Wasnt some remix they did, was probably for Rakims unreleased Debut@Hip Hop

Hip Hop

@Bill Wallace

I wonder why it wasn't officially released!

Big LeBAUSki

An interesting combination of Rakim & Hi-Tek - typically Tek, but also typically Rakim. More songs in the context of another Rakim album on Aftermath would've been ๐Ÿ’ฃ.

Pimpin is a non contact sport

Imagine the unreleased shit they have
