Not heard before. Presuming it’s a demo as just a loop and Guru chorus rather than Premo traditional scratched in chorus. Better than the released version imho 🔥

Yoooooo Preeeeemoooo. . . You and GURU basically perfectef the GANGSTARR persona on this joint. I'm not saying it's y'all's bestest joint BUT it is the most representative of how y'all carry yourselves, on the block , in the club, in the studio, on tour or whatever Sophisticated, smoove respectable unfuckwithable diplomatic while taking no shit and no shorts. . Miss the shit out of GURU as a MC , and a trendsetter, but even more as a gatekeeper . Lot less new cats would have snuck in if he was still here Facts

Yeah this one I never heard before it sounds like something should have been released in 92. But his voice sounds like it did in Moment of Truth 1998.
@trevorhembrough1290 Жыл бұрын
It was actually during the Hard To Earn sessions. They couldn’t clear the sample, so they ended up pressing the demo up as a white label years later around the time Moment of Truth was out.

Hard to earn is a touching stone in hip-hop history. No doubt bout that. But it's sad how Premier gave up street and jazz beats for pop.
@Bulldogg277 жыл бұрын
Is that because he laid the beat for one of Teriyaki Boyz songs to Tokyo Drift?

Wrong version though. This is the original with the uncleared Ohio Players' sample. The Japan version had original synthesizer music by Premier. Probably temp music or a demo version.

Jom James there is an interview with a Gang Starr member can’t remember his name tho, but he said one of the reasons why they broke up was because he was making music for porn This has not been confirmed as truth though so who knows...
