This was one of the first Nas songs (singles) that I had heard in 1994, I was young and like most this was a very impressionable album. I appreciate making the cut for "One Love", hopefully this one will make it for the closing song?!! I look foward to hearing what Travis is going to do with each song and the outcome of the album. I just slipped this one in at the last minute, it's about 3:30 a.m. on the West Coast right now, I finished this about 15 min. ago... the beat I just made is more on the mellow tip, which I think will fit well for the last song/outro. Much Respect to Trav, Kevin, My man Akil! and the rest of the judges... http://www.zshare.net/audio/56718961c4639dfb/ Peace to everyone participating/involved in this contest, props to all the beat makers (I’ve heard a lot of good styles)…this was not an easy sample to use, Large Professor utilized it very well among other samples for the Illmatic version.

Time goes too fast. Here's my final entry: http://www.zshare.net/audio/5669811053980baf/ I sampled the MJ song and I also sampled the Kool & the Gang song that was sampled in the original as well. I tried to make a beat that would sound suitable as the last song on an album. It’s been fun trying to re-flip these samples. Time goes too fast. Here’s my final entry:
