The ironic part is that I wasn't even hittin nuthin in 94.. After a failed 1st attempt back in 93, I was too cool on the green! LoL. Now that I'm a grown-ass, responsible adult.. this sh*t hits me like the 1st (good) time! I first heard this record in early 1994 on a tape sampler I received from Priority Records at a Warehouse block party in South Central (remember The Warehouse?) It still manages to pop into my head when I need it the most, as do most of my jams from my teens. With the sh*t I've been hit with in these last 2 weeks, I may need a 24 pack though.. haha.
"When I, touch down it ain't like I thank, They ain't, trippin off nothin but thangs, So I, quickly dispose of my shank, If we, if we ain't got us.. N*gga where could we Hang?"
Put your cups up, get your smoke in, Baby, we partyin, ain't nobody loc'n, Who you provokin, what you want now? Take a look around, it's pimp sh*t goin down!
"See it's just another day in my neighborhood, 1st thing off in the morning and i'm lookin for that good, stickin to my fingertips, sittin on a hill, and i'm overlooking the city, man this sh*t is forreal."
Hand on a bottle.. other hand on sum Dank.. I'mma puff a lil bud.. i'mma sip me sum drank.. I'mma get up on that azz just to see what you say.. and if you don't say nuthin.. I'mma go All The Way.
Act like I don't make cloud, how you gonna act like I don't get loud? How you gonna act like I don't rock crowds? and leave a lot of people with a gap tooth smile.
"Cause it ain't no doubt in nobody's Mind that I'm a very blessed individual. If we don't turn it around and give it back then we can't go forward.... Time to take this shit back. All of it. Cause it was ours to begin with."
B*tch-AzZ N*ggas don't deserve a holiday.. they deserve this record to be played on repeat.. for at least 2 days straight. Much Luv 2 All my Natives still residing in a country that was taken from them in the first place. You are bigger than all of us!
Unless you are one of the rare few lucky enough to possess a copy of "The Best of Shade Sheist & Nate Dogg" you have never heard this version of this record. Enjoy!
