I approve of this selection! “You ain’t gotta worry if you stayin north of Wilshire.”
oh damn… the sample bonus is big. Never heard it.
but these links never seem to wanna buffer or load properly for me
ahhhh there is goes. damn 9th… great ear.
great track. Gotta admit, I didn’t like it for a while but it really grew on me and I felt like this was an Ode to the West Coast in a very vivid (Albeit even comedic) form. Murs is a lyrical genius, this is a great track and a great sample flip, damn.
Very nice track and 9th’s ear is obviously incredible…being Jamaican i knew this sample right from the jump. Dope stuff
. . i recently had an argument with somebody trying to talk down on the west coast and I brought Murs up. . They looked at me like i was crazy. . then had the nerve to ask ” how much do they sell and why hasnt anybody heard of him?” they say the west has fell off. . because of sales. . sucks that having ACTUAL skills dosnt count anymore. . or Cali would be platinum in americas eyes. .
