Classic. It is. This one takes me back.

SPEAKER_05 34:37

I played this video all the time.

SPEAKER_04 34:39

I was saying maybe that's why it sticks in my head, but also the sample, the Hall of Note sample. Yeah. That would really help made me gravitate to it.

SPEAKER_03 34:52

This was almost this probably was a no-skip album. I know it's cassette, but it was a no-skip. Go fast forward. No fast forward on this one.

SPEAKER_05 35:03

All respect to those who break the case.

SPEAKER_04 37:21

That's a glass. I think I heard a story about it. Who made the beat? Some guy, some nobody you will know, but I think the beat was originally for Digital Underground. Oh word. And they had it for more than a year and they never could do anything with it. So they gave it to Pop. Damn. Actually, they said it was for Safir. Oh word. And I'm like, what was Saphir do with this?

SPEAKER_03 37:46

Yeah, this ain't his.

SPEAKER_04 37:48

Not to me. Like, it wouldn't ben't the classic like that. Not like this. Not like this. And then Pop, you know, spit on it. And they, you know, add the samples and stuff. Because I don't think it had the samples and stuff, and it was just that beat.

SPEAKER_03 38:00

Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_04 38:03

Yeah. I don't think the I Get Around was in there. It must not have been. So I don't know how to beat, but they were saying they just had the regular, just the drum.
