Lyrics:
This one's for North Carolina! C'mon and raise up
Take your shirt off, twist it 'round yo head
Spin it like a helicopter
North Carolina! C'mon and raise up
This one's for you, uh-huh, this one's for who?
Us, us, us, yes sir!

This is one of Petey’s timeless classics and I still have the original CD. There’s something about this song not as many people might appreciate as the song itself though So lifelong career sound engineer here, I record and mix several different genres… what tf ever happened to hiphop being PROFESSIONALLY recorded and mixed like this? 🤔 Like taking the time to step into a real multi million dollar recording facility-which your record contract is already paying the hourly rate for anyways-and having a skilled engineer deal with the mix. The mixdown for this track is fucking spectacular and flawlessly balanced. Even most big name rappers today record vocals in their bedroom with no acoustic treatment and have their homie mix it. That shits gotta stop. Bring back hiphop mixes that sound like THIS. Done fking right

But I miss the Ric Flair "That's a Carolina Hurricanes Goal... WOO!" Bit. That connected with me a lot since I love wrestling and ice hockey. Just, following the song, you can throw that bit in.

[@Mark-fr7yv]

Everytime I drive through North Carolina on my way to Florida each winter this song plays in my head. I can imagine living there. Song would be playing in my head for 20 years now.
