Blew my mind when I heard we were getting a new Gangstarr album in 2019, and was wicked excited to hear about the J. Cole feature. Still didn't expect it to be this good. This is like an instant classic, somehow it sounds like all their other songs from back in the day, like it will transport you back to the past, but it's also timeless. Song of the year.

I'm emotional listening to this. This took me back to a time when I felt like Hip Hop was flooded with an extreme level of genius, collaboration and competitiveness that made the genre perfect. Artists were hungry to be legendary. There was a supreme pride in lyrics, delivery and production to deliver a product that was sonically unique. Meanwhile it connected with everyone on every block. Folks today who don't know Hip Hop don't understand what it was like to have about 2 dozen artists that would give you Hall of Fame type material and performances within a single year. Though they were competitive, they were intelligent, genuine and humble enough to marvel in each other's success. That is how we got incredible collaborations like this one here. J. Cole had to deliver a legendary verse spitting amongst one of the Gods of the game! #RIPGURU I still love Hip Hop. It continues to feed me and heal me. Thanks DJ Premier for bringing us another masterpiece!
