Mobb Deep - Can't F*ck Wit It Feat. Raekwon - Orion Brass Balls Remix

Anyone that knows me well knows how much of a Mobb Deep fan I am. The Infamous, Hell on Earth, Murda Muzik, HNIC, and Infamy were all great releases. Murda Muzik fell into the era of the late 90's where every album needed atleast more than 17 tracks. This album was packed with bangers but the one joint I just always felt didn't resonate with me was Can't fuck wit it. The verses were fire, and the drums were dope but I didn't ever feel the weird keyboard pattern loop thing going on. Which was a-shame considering this song features Raekwon. Buying this album and seeing yet another Raekwon collab on another mobb deep album had me hyped but I was disappointed for the reason already mentioned.
Well here we are 2024 and stems is a reality so I decided to lay my touch on this track. I kept Havoc's original drum pattern as I felt it was always dope. Added some samples I've had in the vault, laid a bass line and didn't want to get to crazy wit it becuase this is Mobb Deep after all lets keep gritty.
Now as I was doing it I decided it would be pretty cool to make a video with the Blaze Magazine issue which featured them on the cover. It was fitting I felt because the issue was in promoting the Murda Muzik album, and Raekwon is quoted in the article. These old Blaze, source, Vibe articles are hard to find. I often find the covers online but rarely find the actual articles to read. If anyone out there has a website to recommend that keeps these magazine articles archived please let me know.
I tried my best to make the articles easy to read in the video.
Any pointers let me know

Nice work

appreciate it

That instrumental beat, the guitar, or whatever it is, feels really loud and ends up suffocating the actual song; is there way you could tone it down; otherwise this is a great mix.

I would re bounce the track and replace the audio if youtube had a feature lie dat but it doesn't. So to re bounce it then reedit the video would be too much work. I appreciate your feedback though thanks for listening homie.
